Why build your quiz from your own material

The fastest way to make your own quiz with answers is to start from the material you already have, not from a generic template. A quiz built from your lecture slides or textbook chapter tests exactly what your class covers.

Quizzes built from your own notes match what your instructor actually taught.
Each answer includes an explanation, so wrong answers become study points.
Mix question types to test recall, judgment and short explanations.
Keep the quiz to one topic at a time so review stays manageable.

Example intro biology quiz questions with answers

Which organelle is the main site of aerobic respiration in eukaryotic cells?Mitochondria. They produce most of the cell's ATP through the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.

True or false: plant cell walls are made mainly of cellulose.True. Cellulose gives the cell wall its rigidity and helps prevent the cell from bursting when water enters.

Which structure controls what enters and leaves the cell?The plasma membrane. Its phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins makes it selectively permeable.

Where are ribosomal subunits assembled in a eukaryotic cell?The nucleolus. Ribosomal RNA is made and combined with proteins there before the subunits move into the cytoplasm.

Why do prokaryotic cells not have a nucleus?Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles. Their DNA sits in an unbound region called the nucleoid.

Generate the full set

Any source you already have

Use PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition, so handwritten-free printed notes work well.

Three question types

Create multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions. Each one comes with an answer key and an explanation you can review before studying.

Export when you need to

Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV exports, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning platforms.

How it works

Upload your material

Add your lecture slides, reading PDF, Word notes or a photo of a textbook page.

Review the questions and answers

Check each generated question, its correct answer and the explanation. Edit anything that does not match your course.

Study or export

Practice in the browser, or export the quiz as a PDF or DOCX for paper review, or to Moodle XML if your course uses it.

Writing answer keys by hand takes time, and it is easy to skip the explanations that help most. When the questions are generated from your notes, you spend your effort checking accuracy and deciding what to focus on.

Review the explanations for every question you miss, not just the correct answer key. That habit turns a quiz into practice you can use before an exam.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a unit quiz on cell biology include?

Keep the quiz focused on one unit, such as cell structure and organelles. A shorter quiz on one topic is easier to review and repeat than one that covers a whole semester.

How do I write useful explanations for quiz answers?

Explain why the correct answer is right and briefly address the most tempting wrong option. Explanations help you understand the reasoning, not just memorize the key.

Can I export my quiz to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is included on the Pro plan. PDF and DOCX exports are available on Plus, while the free plan lets you study in the browser.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with no exports. No credit card is needed to start.
