Gimkit GIMS quiz questions from your own material

Practice built on Gimkit GIMS material works best when the questions come straight from the notes you actually studied. DeckOwl reads PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages, then writes multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions with explanations for each answer.

  • Upload a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page
  • Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions
  • Read an explanation for every answer, right or wrong
  • Retry missed questions in later sessions to strengthen recall
Sample intro biology quiz questions (keyword names no subject)
Which organelle produces most of a cell's ATP?The mitochondrion. Its inner membrane hosts the electron transport chain that drives most ATP synthesis.
True or false: DNA replication is semiconservative.True. Each new double helix keeps one original strand and gains one newly synthesized strand.
What is the main job of the enzyme helicase?Unwinding the DNA double helix at the replication fork. It breaks hydrogen bonds so polymerases can copy each strand.
Which phase of mitosis separates sister chromatids?Anaphase. Spindle fibers pull sister chromatids toward opposite poles of the cell.
Which bond links amino acids together in a protein?The peptide bond. A condensation reaction joins the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of the next.

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions, all generated from the material you upload.

Explanations for every answer

Each question includes a short explanation so you learn why the right answer is right, not just what it is.

Exports on paid plans

Free plans study in the browser. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.

Choose your question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions, then generate a set from your own content.

Study or export

Work through the questions in the browser, or export them on a paid plan to share or import elsewhere.

Generic question banks often miss the specific terms, examples and definitions your instructor used. A quiz made from your own slides or notes tests exactly what you were asked to learn, which makes wrong answers more useful.

Start with a short set of about 10 questions, answer them without looking at your notes, and then reread the explanations for anything you missed. Repeat the set a day or two later to see what you have retained.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should I make for a GIMS quiz?

Start with about 10 questions so you can finish a session in one sitting. Once you know which topics are weak, generate a second set focused on those sections.

How should I study after getting quiz questions wrong?

Read the explanation first, then write the correct answer in your own words without looking. Return to the missed question a day or two later to check whether it has stuck.
