Why a custom math quiz beats a generic one

Most ready-made math quiz for students sets follow their own schedule, so they rarely match the unit your class finished this week.

  • Multiple choice questions with an explanation for each option
  • True or false questions for quick checks on rules and definitions
  • Short answer questions that test whether a student can work a problem
  • Free to start, with no credit card needed
Example algebra and geometry questions for a math quiz
What is the solution to 2x + 6 = 14?x = 4. Subtract 6 from both sides to get 2x = 8, then divide both sides by 2.
True or false: the derivative of sin(x) is cos(x).True. The derivative of sine is cosine, a standard rule from first-semester calculus.
What is 3/4 of 28?21. Multiply 28 by 3 to get 84, then divide by 4.
What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 cm and a height of 6 cm?30 square cm. Area is one half times base times height, so 0.5 x 10 x 6 = 30.
What is the slope of the line y = -3x + 5?-3. In slope-intercept form y = mx + b, the slope is m, the coefficient of x.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a math quiz for students have?

Ten to twenty questions is a common length for a practice quiz. Shorter quizzes are easier to finish right after a lesson, when the material is still fresh.

What is the best way for students to study for a math quiz?

Work each problem by hand before checking the answer, then read the explanation for every miss. Spacing practice across several days usually holds up better than cramming the night before.

Can I export a generated quiz to Moodle?

Yes, on the Pro plan, which adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. PDF and DOCX export are included with Plus, and the free plan is limited to studying in the browser.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports. Students get 40% off with a school email.
