Why a custom exam beats a generic one

Writing a practice test by hand takes hours, and a good AI exam generator app can draft one from your own slides in minutes. Because the questions come from the material you actually studied, they test the details your course emphasized rather than a generic syllabus.

  • Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, notes or page photos as source material.
  • Choose multiple choice, true/false or short-answer questions with explanations.
  • Study free in the browser with 3 generations per month.
  • Export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV on Plus, and to QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro.
Example exam study questions with answers
What does spaced repetition do for exam recall?It schedules reviews at increasing intervals so you retrieve material just before you would forget it, which strengthens long-term memory.
Why is practice testing more effective than rereading notes for an exam?Retrieving an answer from memory strengthens it, while rereading often creates a feeling of familiarity that overstates how well you know the material.
What is interleaving in exam preparation?Mixing different topics or problem types in one session instead of blocking one topic at a time. It forces you to decide which method fits each problem.
True or false: cramming the night before an exam produces retention as strong as studying over several days.False. Studying spread over several days produces stronger long-term retention than one massed session, because memory consolidates between study periods.
In a multiple-choice exam question, what is a distractor?A plausible wrong answer written to test whether you understand the concept. Working out why each distractor is wrong builds accuracy on the real exam.
Generate the full set

Three question formats

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer, so you can test recognition and recall in the same exam.

Explanations for every answer

Each question shows why the correct answer is right and why the wrong options fall short.

Built from your material

Exams are generated from the files you upload, so the questions match what your instructor covered.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.

Choose the question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false, short answer or a mix, then generate the exam.

Take the exam and review

Work through the questions, read each explanation, and retake the weak sections later.

If you need a printable copy, Plus exports the exam to PDF or DOCX. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML, so you can bring an exam into a learning management system. For most students, though, the real value is generating a fresh exam from your own notes each time you study.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a practice exam have?

For one chapter or lecture, 15 to 25 questions covers the main ideas and leaves time to read the explanations. Generate a new exam from the same notes a few days later to check whether your results hold up.

How far ahead of an exam should I start practice tests?

Start a week or two before the exam and take a short practice test every few days rather than cramming them all into one night. After each test, reread the explanation for every question you missed before attempting the exam again.

Can I export the exam to Word or PDF?

Yes, Plus lets you export to PDF and DOCX, along with Anki and CSV. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports are included with Pro at $14.99 per month.

Is there a free plan?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports. No credit card is needed to start, and students get 40% off with a school email.
