How a college-level grammar quiz should test you

A college-level online grammar quiz is most useful when it tests the rules your own courses cover, such as agreement with compound subjects, dangling modifiers, comma splices and the subjunctive mood. Generic beginner quizzes often skip the subtle cases that appear on writing exams and in graded essays.

Frequently asked questions

What grammar topics usually appear on a college-level grammar quiz?

Common topics include subject-verb agreement with compound and indefinite subjects, pronoun case and reference, dangling and misplaced modifiers, comma splices and fused sentences, and parallel structure. Subjunctive mood and punctuation of restrictive and nonrestrictive clauses are also frequent. Your instructor's handouts are the best guide to which ones matter for your course.

How should I study grammar rules so I can apply them in my writing?

Start by rewriting a few sentences from your own drafts that break the rule, then correct them and note why. Test yourself on new sentences a few days later instead of rereading the explanation. Short, spaced practice works better than one long session before an exam.

Can I export a quiz to Word or to Moodle?

Exporting to DOCX and PDF is included in the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month, and Moodle XML export is on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. The free plan lets you study quizzes in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you can start without a credit card. Students can get 40% off paid plans with a school email address.
