Quizzes from Notes Explained

🧠 Why test yourself

Reading notes again feels like learning, but recalling an answer is a different kind of practice. In a well-known study by Roediger and Karpicke (2006), students who took tests on a passage remembered more of it a week later than students who spent the same time reading it again.

⚙️ How the questions are made

The text is split into sentences, and each sentence is searched for a name, a number or a key word. Wrong choices are other names and numbers of the same kind from your text, such as other years for a year or other planets for a planet, so they look believable.

✅ Checking your quiz

Questions made by rules can be too easy, odd or, now and then, a swapped statement can happen to be true. Read the Review screen before you share a quiz, and fix or delete anything that does not work. The quiz is only as accurate as the notes it came from.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Quiz Maker turn my notes into questions?

It splits your text into sentences and looks in each one for a word worth asking about: a name such as Jupiter or Julius Caesar, a number such as 1831 or 206, or a key word that follows "the" or a preposition. It hides that word to make a fill in the blank question, offers it with three other names or numbers from your text as a multiple choice, or swaps it for one of them to make a false statement. Every question comes from a sentence you wrote, and the review shows that sentence under each question.

Are the questions always right?

The questions are made by rules, not by a person, so read them on the Review screen before you share a quiz. A true or false question that swaps in another name from your text is marked false, but now and then a swapped statement can happen to be true as well, and a question can be too easy or a bit odd. Edit or delete any question in one click, or add your own. The facts are only as good as the notes you paste.

What kind of text works best?

Full sentences in English with names, dates, numbers and terms: a textbook chapter, an article, revision notes or a list of facts. Each sentence needs five to forty-five words. Short bullet points without verbs, tables and other languages give few questions or none. About two questions can come from each sentence, up to thirty at once.

Can I choose the kind of questions?

Yes. Switch multiple choice, true or false and fill in the blank on or off, pick from 3 to 30 questions, a time limit of 15, 30 or 60 seconds or none, and whether the order is shuffled and the answer shows after each question. When a fact cannot be asked in the kinds you picked, the Quiz Maker uses another fact instead.

How are points worked out?

A right answer earns 100 points, up to 50 more for the time left on the clock, and 10 more for every right answer in a row after the first, up to 50. A typed answer counts when it matches, ignoring capital letters and "the" or "a" in front, with one wrong letter allowed in words of five letters or more and two in words of nine or more, and a number rounded correctly, such as 99.9 for 99.86.

How do I share a quiz?

Press Share. The whole quiz is packed into the link after the # sign, which browsers never send to a server, so the quiz goes only to the people you send the link to. You can also download the quiz as a small file to open later, or copy it as printable text with an answer key at the end.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. The questions are made in your browser on your device. The last text you made a quiz from, your saved quizzes and your scores are kept in this browser only, up to 30 quizzes.

How is it different from the site's other tools?

MindSharp trains memory and speed with ready-made puzzles, and the Elemental Periodic Table has a quiz about the elements. The Quiz Maker makes a quiz from any text you give it, so you can test yourself on your own notes.
