Generate exam questions from your own course material
Choose which of your materials to draw on, pick how many multiple-choice and theory questions you want, and get a practice set built from those sources. Multiple-choice comes with four options and a marked answer. Theory comes with a model answer and a marking rubric, so you can tell whether what you wrote would have scored.
What you can feed it
- Any lecture you have recorded or uploaded
- Any PDF or Word document in your course
- Several materials at once — a practice set can draw across a whole course
How it works
- 01
Pick your materials
Select the lectures and documents the set should come from. This is the whole point: the questions are bounded by what your lecturer actually covered, not by what the subject contains in general.
- 02
Choose the shape of the paper
Set how many multiple-choice and how many theory questions you want, so the practice set can mirror the format of the real paper rather than defaulting to a quiz.
- 03
Sit it, then check yourself against the rubric
Multiple-choice marks itself. For theory, you compare what you wrote against a model answer and the rubric it was written to — which is closer to how the paper is actually marked than a right/wrong tick.
What comes back
Exactly what you get
- Multiple-choice questions
- Four options, one marked correct. Option order is shuffled, so the answer is not always in the same place.
- Theory questions
- Each comes with a model answer and a marking rubric. A theory question without a model answer cannot be self-marked, so any that come back malformed are discarded rather than patched up.
- A practice set you can retake
- Sets persist, and progress is saved as you go — you can leave a set half-finished and come back to it.
Under the hood
How it actually handles this
It refuses to invent more questions than your material supports
Question counts are capped against how much source text you selected — roughly one multiple-choice question per 400 characters, and considerably more source needed per theory question, since a question worth writing an essay about needs more to draw on. Ask for fifty questions from a two-page handout and you will be told the material supports fewer, and given that number. This is deliberate: padded questions are worse than no questions, because you revise the wrong things and feel prepared.
Questions are spread across the materials you picked
The per-question quota is allocated across your selected sources by weight rather than taken from whichever document happens to be first, so a set drawn from six lectures does not turn into six questions about lecture one.
Generated on demand, and not metered separately
Practice sets are generated when you ask for them rather than produced automatically for every upload, and generating one does not burn a separate quota — the per-lecture ceiling is 5 questions on free, 20 on Student and 50 on Scholar.
What it doesn’t do
Worth knowing before you spend an evening on it.
- These are not past papers. eNotee does not host real exam papers and does not know what your examiner set last year — it writes practice questions from your material. If you want genuine past questions, that is a different resource and worth having as well.
- Question quality tracks source quality. A sparse slide deck of bullet fragments produces shallow questions, because there is nothing deeper in it to draw on.
- Theory rubrics are a study aid, not a marker. They will not catch a subtly wrong argument the way your lecturer would.
- There is no diagram-labelling or working-out question type — text questions only.
Questions
- Are these real past questions?
- No. They are practice questions generated from the material you supplied. eNotee does not host past papers and does not claim to know what was actually asked in a previous sitting.
- Can I get theory questions, not just multiple choice?
- Yes — you choose the mix. Theory questions come with a model answer and a marking rubric so you can judge your own attempt against something.
- Why did I get fewer questions than I asked for?
- Because the material you selected did not support more. eNotee caps counts against how much source text there is rather than padding the set out, and it tells you the number it can actually support.
- Can one set cover a whole course?
- Yes. Select several lectures and documents and the questions are allocated across them by weight, rather than all coming from one source.
Also worth a look
Try it on one thing tonight.
Exam-style questions are on every plan, not held back for the top tier: 10 per lecture on Starter, in either format. Student raises that to 20 and Scholar to 50.
