How to use practice quizzes for pub quiz prep

Good pub quiz prep usually means covering a wide range of facts rather than going deep on one subject, so breadth and regular repetition matter more than cramming. Start with the categories your local quiz tends to use, such as geography, science, history, music and film, and gather the notes or slides you already have on them.

  • Cover several categories instead of one favorite topic.
  • Review every missed question and read its explanation.
  • Practice with a mix of multiple-choice and true/false questions.
  • Repeat weak topics a few days later to help the facts stick.

How it works

Upload your study material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of your notes.

Choose a question type

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

Quiz yourself before the night

Work through the questions, read the explanations for any you miss, and repeat the weak topics.

Generating questions from your own material keeps the practice relevant. Review the explanations for every answer you get wrong, since trivia nights often reuse the same kinds of facts in different wording. Short sessions spread across a week tend to stick better than one long review the night before.

Frequently asked questions

How do I cover enough general knowledge for a pub quiz?

Spread your practice across common quiz categories such as geography, science, history, sport and pop culture. Short sessions on each category work better than one long session on a single topic.

Which topics should I focus on for trivia night?

Start with the categories your quiz host has used before, if you know them, and then cover a few broad areas like world capitals, basic science and well-known events. Save time for the topics you find hardest.

Can I export my pub quiz questions to Word or PDF?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export are included in the Plus plan, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. QTI and Moodle XML export are available on the Pro plan at $14.99/month.

Is there a free plan to try it first?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start. Free accounts cannot export their questions.
