Turn your class notes into a quiz you can send to friends
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations. Study in the browser for free, or export a PDF or DOCX copy to share on the Plus plan.
Making a quiz your friends will actually use
Study groups often trade practice questions before an exam, and a quiz maker to send to friends saves the time of writing them by hand.
- Start with one chapter or lecture so the quiz stays focused.
- Mix question types to test recall and recognition.
- Read each explanation before sharing so the answers match your course.
- Export a PDF or DOCX copy to send on the Plus plan.
Works from what you already have
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.
Explanations for every answer
Each question comes with an explanation, so friends who miss one learn why the right answer is right.
Share as a file
Export a PDF or DOCX copy on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro for course platforms.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file or your typed notes.
Pick a question type
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions.
Export and send
Download a copy and send it to friends who want to test themselves.
The quality of a shared quiz depends on the source. Questions built from your own lecture notes or course slides match what your group is being tested on, while generic quizzes often miss the details that matter.
Before sending, skim the questions and remove any that are unclear. Keep the explanations, since they are what makes the quiz useful to someone who did not attend the class.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a quiz for a biology exam include?
Ten to twenty questions covers most single-chapter exams. Mixing multiple-choice and true/false items tests recognition and recall at the same time.
What makes a good practice question for cell biology?
A good question asks about one organelle, process or relationship and has a single clear correct answer. Wrong options should be plausible misconceptions, such as confusing mitochondria with chloroplasts.
Can I send my quiz to friends as a file?
Yes. The Plus plan exports PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan keeps quizzes in the browser with no exports.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
