Built from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, slides, plain-text notes or photos of pages and get questions based on what you actually studied.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions

Choose the question types you need, and each answer comes with a short explanation so you learn why it is right.

Spaced repetition on paid plans

Review missed questions at growing intervals so British dates, monarchs and treaties stick past the exam.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a textbook page covering the British period you are studying.

Pick the question types

Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and how many you want for this topic.

Study with answers and explanations

Work through the quiz in your browser, check each answer and read the explanation before moving on.

Each question is paired with an answer and a short explanation, so a wrong guess about the Act of Union or the Parliament Act becomes a lesson rather than a dead end. Mixing multiple-choice with true/false keeps recall honest.

Start with one topic, check your score, then rerun the quiz on the questions you missed. Repeating only the weak spots is faster than rereading whole chapters.
