Why a quiz built from your own list works better for GRE vocab

Ready-made GRE word sets can help, but they rarely match the words in your prep book or the lists your instructor handed out. The best GRE vocab quiz for your prep is one built from the exact material you need to know.

Generate the full set

Built from your word list

Paste notes, upload a PDF from your prep book, or add slides from class. Questions use the words you are actually studying.

Explanations for every answer

Each question shows the correct choice and why, so you learn the word's meaning and how it is used, not just whether you guessed right.

Flashcards that repeat on schedule

Turn the same list into flashcards with spaced repetition, so words you miss come back before you forget them.

How it works

Add your material

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

Choose the question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer. Mix types to test recognition and recall.

Study and review

Work through the quiz in your browser, then return to missed words on a spaced schedule.

A quiz that tests you in several formats shows where your gaps are. Multiple-choice questions check whether you can pick a meaning out of options, while short-answer questions force you to recall a definition and use the word in a sentence.

Pair the quiz with a schedule. Short sessions spread over several days usually stick better than one long cram, and words you miss should return sooner than the ones you already know.
