How a quiz with score comes together

Writing a Google Form quiz with score from scratch usually means retyping the same lecture notes into question boxes, then working out the right answers twice. DeckOwl handles the drafting step so you spend your time on the parts that matter, like choosing which topics to test.

  • Keep each quiz to a single topic so the score reflects one unit of material.
  • Give every question a point value before you publish, since Google Forms totals points from those settings.
  • Read the explanations before you release feedback so the wording matches what you taught.
  • Test the form with a practice submission to confirm the right answers are scored as expected.
Example quiz score calculations
A quiz has 20 questions worth 1 point each. A student answers 16 correctly. What is the score as a percentage?80%. Sixteen out of 20 is 0.80, and multiplying by 100 gives 80%.
A question is worth 5 points and the student earns 3 of them. What percentage of that question did the student earn?60%. Three divided by 5 is 0.6, so the student earned 60% of the points.
A quiz is worth 50 points and a student scores 42. What is the percentage score?84%. Forty-two divided by 50 is 0.84, which is 84%.
A quiz has 10 questions and the passing mark is 70%. How many correct answers are needed to pass?7 correct answers. Seventy percent of 10 is 7, so 7 or more correct answers passes.
A quiz has two questions worth 2 points each and one question worth 6 points. What is the total possible score?10 points. Adding 2 + 2 + 6 gives 10, which is the maximum score before percentages are calculated.

Answer keys included

Each multiple-choice, true/false or short answer question comes with the correct answer marked, so you know which option to set as the right answer in Google Forms.

Explanations for every question

Each item includes a sentence on why the answer is correct, which you can paste into Google Forms feedback so students learn from wrong answers.

Built from your material

Upload a lecture PDF, a slide deck or typed notes, and the questions come from that content rather than a generic question bank.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a page. Scanned pages are read with text recognition.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions and review the list before you copy anything.

Paste into Google Forms

Turn on quiz mode in Google Forms, enter the answer key and point values, and the form scores each response automatically.

Google Forms does the scoring once it knows the correct answers. Turn on quiz mode in the form settings, then mark the correct option and point value for each question. Each response is graded as soon as it is submitted, and you can release missed answers and feedback to students.

DeckOwl does not export directly to Google Forms. Free accounts study in the browser, while paid plans add PDF and DOCX exports so you can share a printed version alongside the online form.

Frequently asked questions

How do I set up points so a Google Form quiz gives a score?

Open the form settings, turn on the option to make it a quiz, and then set the correct answer and point value for each question. Google Forms adds up the points automatically on each submission.

How many questions should a practice quiz have?

Ten to twenty questions covers most single-topic reviews without taking too long. Shorter quizzes work well for quick checks, and longer ones suit a full unit.

Can DeckOwl export straight to Google Forms?

No, DeckOwl does not list a direct Google Forms export. You can copy the questions and answers over, and the Plus plan adds PDF and DOCX exports.

Is there a free plan?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports. Plus is $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, and students get 40 percent off with a school email.
