Why a quiz beats rereading your notes
A quiz maker that builds questions from your own notes lets you find out how well you know each section before the exam, instead of guessing from how familiar the pages look.
- Questions come from your own PDFs, slides and notes
- Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study
- Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF or DOCX export
Three question types
Get multiple-choice, true/false and open questions built from your own material, so the quiz matches what you were actually assigned.
Explanations for every answer
Each question comes with a short explanation, so a wrong answer teaches you why instead of just marking it wrong.
Study in your browser
Take quizzes right after you upload, with no setup. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are available on paid plans.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.
Choose the question types
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the quiz from your notes.
Answer and check your gaps
Work through the questions, read the explanations for anything you missed, and retake the sections that still feel shaky.
Rereading feels productive because familiar text is easy to recognize. Answering questions without looking forces you to pull information out of memory, and that effort is what makes the gaps visible.
DeckOwl creates the questions from the files you already have, so every quiz reflects your course rather than a generic question bank.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a practice quiz have for one anatomy chapter?
Ten to twenty questions usually covers the main ideas of a chapter without becoming tedious. Shorter quizzes are better for daily review, and longer ones work well before an exam.
How can I tell if I really know a topic or only recognize it?
Close your notes and answer the questions from memory first. Any question you miss or hesitate on marks a weak spot, and the explanation shows the reasoning you need to retain.
Can I export my quiz to PDF or Moodle?
PDF and DOCX export are included on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser, and students get 40% off with a school email.
