How the free version works

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should I make from one chapter of biology notes?

Start with 10 to 15 questions per chapter so you can finish a review in one sitting. Mix multiple choice with true/false so you test both recall and understanding.

What is the best way to study quiz questions before an exam?

Answer each question before reading the explanation, then retry the ones you missed. Spacing those retries over several days works better than cramming them once.

Can I export my quiz from the free version?

No. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports. PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export come with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export come with Pro.
