Revalida Scores: Stage Rules and Edition-Specific Cutoffs

Start with the edition on the result notice

Brazil’s Revalida is designed for applicants seeking recognition of a medical degree completed abroad. The process distinguishes a theoretical knowledge assessment from a practical examination of clinical abilities. The Revalida exam guide introduces these stages; to interpret your mark, first locate the specific edition on the official result or notice. Edition-specific regulations matter because the qualification threshold can differ between sittings.

Why thresholds must be checked by edition

The Inep regulatory archive identifies a theoretical first-stage minimum of 59 points out of 100 for Revalida 2026/1. For Revalida 2026/2, the official Inep notice specifies a minimum of 60 points based on valid items in a 100-question assessment. These are results of distinct edition rules. Read the notice attached to your application rather than transferring a threshold from a different edition.

An official score should also be considered alongside any published treatment of invalidated questions. Keep the final scoring notice and the edition identifier with your result. A rehearsal paper or early informal answer tally can be a useful study aid, while the current edition’s published calculation decides the formal outcome.

Document approval and the practical stage

The Inep notice for the later edition makes approval of medical graduation documentation a further requirement for advancing in the process. A satisfactory theoretical mark and an accepted documentary record together support eligibility for the subsequent clinical-skill assessment, under the edition’s rules.

The practical stage assesses performance in clinical scenarios and follows its own examination instructions. Track your official status for the theoretical stage, the document review and clinical stage separately. This separation is especially useful when seeking clarification or lodging a permitted administrative request about your record.

Review the two types of medical performance

For future preparation, analyse missed theoretical cases by field and by diagnostic decision. Clinical practice requires additional attention to explaining findings, selecting safe steps and communicating clearly. An apparently strong multiple-choice practice result can coexist with a skill that needs rehearsal under simulation conditions.
