Quiz maker for lecture notes

The gap between a lecture and the exam is where most of the forgetting happens. A five-minute quiz in the same week is the cheapest intervention available, and it needs questions someone has to write. This writes them.

How it works

  1. Add the week's material

    Notes, the lecturer's deck exported to PDF, photographed pages — up to 10 files in one material.

  2. Generate a short set

    Ten questions is enough for a weekly check. Save the longer sets for revision periods.

  3. Repeat it before the exam

    The saved set can be retaken, and accuracy across attempts shows what is holding and what is not.

The weekly habit is the whole point

Testing the same week you learned something is disproportionately effective, and the reason people do not do it is that writing ten questions about your own lecture takes longer than the test itself. Removing that cost is the difference between a habit and an intention.

Keep the weekly sets short. Ten questions takes five minutes and can survive a busy week; a fifty-question paper cannot, and a habit that gets skipped is worth less than a smaller one that does not.

By the time revision starts, twelve weekly sets exist. Retaking them is a far better use of a revision week than reading the notes again from the beginning, and the accuracy history says which weeks to prioritise.

Good for

  • A five-minute check in the same week as the lecture
  • Building a per-module question bank across a semester
  • Retaking old sets during revision, with attempt history
  • Working from the lecturer's own slides rather than a generic bank
  • Study groups where each member generates from shared material

Lecture quizzes — questions people ask

How many questions for a weekly check?

Ten is a good default — about five minutes, which is short enough to actually happen every week. The free plan caps sets at 10, which suits this use exactly.

Can I combine notes and slides in one quiz?

Yes. Up to 10 files can be attached to a single study material and are treated as one source, so your notes and the lecturer's deck can feed the same set.

Does the free plan allow a set per week?

The free plan holds 5 materials and 5 quiz sets at a time. For a set every week across a semester you would either delete older sets or move to Premium, which removes both limits.

Ten questions, five minutes, and it takes about two to set up.
