Build a Question Bank

Add class- and subject-specific questions with type, difficulty, points, correct answer, and optional review notes.

For School administrators, Teachers. Updated 2026-08-10.

Overview

The question bank stores reusable questions for a specific class and subject. Supported types include multiple choice with a correct-answer toggle per option, true-false with a single correct answer, and text questions that must be manually reviewed since they have no automatic answer key.

Each question has a difficulty, a points value, and can include a review note explaining why the selected answer is correct. The question bank list and paper builder can be filtered by class, subject, type, and difficulty so teachers attach questions that match the scheduled exam.

Common problems

Save is disabled

The prompt cannot be empty, a class and subject are required, and multiple choice or true-false questions require a correct answer to be selected before saving.
