How to make a best friend quiz from your own notes
A best friend quiz works best when it draws on something real, like shared class readings, a study guide you both used or notes from a project you worked on together.
- Upload the notes or reading your quiz should cover
- Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions
- Read the explanation after each answer to see what you missed
- Export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan
Works from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or photos of pages, and the questions come from what you added.
Three question types
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of the correct answer.
Export when you need it
Paid plans export your quiz. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML are included on Pro.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page.
Choose the question type
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer.
Quiz yourself
Answer in the browser and read the explanation for each question.
DeckOwl reads the material you upload and writes questions from it, so the quiz covers the facts you choose instead of generic prompts. Each question includes an explanation that shows why the right answer is right.
If your quiz is for a class on relationships or social psychology, upload the reading first and generate from it so the questions match what you were assigned.
