How can I turn my notes into a quiz?

Paste your notes or upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT or Markdown file up to 3 MB. StudySim writes five questions with answer choices, an answer key and an explanation for each one. Pick your answers, check the result, and restart if you want another pass.

Can AI make a quiz for me?

Yes. StudySim builds the quiz from the material you give it, so the questions follow your notes rather than a generic topic. AI-written questions can still be wrong or miss a nuance, so check any answer that surprises you against your source.

Is there a free practice test maker?

Yes. Your first five-question quiz doesn't need an account. Without one, the result expires after 24 hours, so sign in if you want the quiz saved to a course. Usage limits apply. To build one from your class notes, try the practice test generator.

Can I make a practice test from a PDF?

Yes, if the PDF has selectable text. The tool reads PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT and Markdown files up to 3 MB. It doesn't read photos or scanned PDFs. You can also start from a file in the AI quiz generator.

What is the best free quiz app?

There isn't one answer. Some apps focus on ready-made sets, others on quizzes from your own files. Our guide to turning a PDF into a quiz walks through the options. For standardized exams, StudySim also has free practice tests with original sample questions.
