Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a live review quiz include?

Ten to fifteen questions usually fit a short review round without losing the group's attention. For a full chapter, split the material into several shorter sets.

How do I write good wrong answers for multiple-choice questions?

Use mistakes students actually make, such as confusing two similar terms, so each distractor teaches something. Keep all options similar in length so the correct answer does not stand out.

Can I export my questions?

Exports are paid features. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes three generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start. Exports require a paid plan.
