How a free Microsoft quiz maker fits your study routine

Most students who need a free Microsoft quiz maker already have the material: a lecture deck in PowerPoint, a Word handout or a PDF from the course site. The fastest route is to turn that file into questions rather than writing them from scratch. DeckOwl reads the text in your file and drafts questions from it, so the quiz matches what your instructor actually covered.

Questions come from your own slides, handouts and notes
Each answer includes an explanation you can review
Free plan: 3 generations per month, no credit card needed
DOCX and PDF exports are available on paid plans

Example Microsoft Office quiz questions

In Microsoft Excel, which function adds up a range of cells?SUM. It returns the total of the cells you specify, such as =SUM(B2:B10).

Which keyboard shortcut saves the current file in Microsoft Word?Ctrl+S. Saving regularly keeps your changes if the program closes unexpectedly.

True or false: Ctrl+Z undoes the most recent action in Microsoft Word.True. Undo reverses your last change, and you can press it again to step back further.

In PowerPoint, which view do you use to change the layout and theme for the whole deck?Slide Master view. Changes made there apply to every slide that uses that layout.

What does the dollar sign in $A$1 do when you copy an Excel formula?It makes the reference absolute, so it stays fixed at A1 instead of shifting to match the new cell.
