What DeckOwl does with a Google Forms quiz

If you have a Google Forms quiz coming up, DeckOwl will not fill it in for you. It reads the course material you upload and writes practice questions on that same content, so you can test yourself before the real quiz.

Practice questions generated from your own PDFs, slides and notes
Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer formats with explanations
Spaced repetition flashcards for the terms you keep missing
Free plan to start with no credit card required

Example cell biology practice questions (general study topic)

Which organelle produces most of a cell's ATP?The mitochondrion. It carries out cellular respiration, which generates most of the cell's ATP.

True or false: plant cell walls are made mostly of cellulose.True. Cellulose fibers give the plant cell wall its strength and rigidity.

What is the main function of ribosomes?Protein synthesis. They read mRNA and link amino acids into a polypeptide chain.

Why does a cell lose water when placed in a concentrated salt solution?Water moves by osmosis toward the higher solute concentration outside, so the cell shrinks.

Which phase of mitosis separates sister chromatids?Anaphase. Spindle fibers pull the sister chromatids toward opposite poles of the cell.

Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from what you actually studied.

Explanations for every answer

Each multiple-choice, true/false or short answer question includes an explanation so you learn why the right answer is right.

Flashcards and mind maps too

Switch to spaced repetition flashcards or a mind map when a quiz shows you which ideas need more review.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add the PDF, slides or notes that your Google Forms quiz covers.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, then generate a practice set.

Answer, check and repeat

Work through the questions, read the explanations and retry the ones you missed.

The practice set works like a study session rather than an answer key. Each question includes an explanation, and missed items can go into spaced repetition so they come back at the right time.

Studying in the browser is free with a limit of 3 generations per month. Exporting to PDF or DOCX is a Plus feature, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on Pro.
