⚡ Free practice test generator

A practice test generator built from your material

Upload your notes, slides, or a PDF and sit a scored 10-question test on it. Every question comes from what you uploaded.

Questions per set

Bigger sets read more of your document. Included with Student and Genius.

Past paperWe can match its style

Upload a past paper on its own and we work out how it asks: the topics it keeps returning to, whether it wants an option picked or an answer written, how hard it pitches, and the words it uses to ask. Your notes still supply every fact and every answer, and nothing from the paper is copied into your questions.

The difference shows up most in written practice, which comes with Student and Genius. Multiple-choice wording moves much less.

You can add one once your first set is ready.

An estimate from one paper, never a prediction of what your exam will ask.

How is your practice test built?

  1. 1

    Upload the material

    A set of notes, a lecture deck, or a chapter. Anything you would otherwise be rereading the night before.

  2. 2

    GeniusPal writes the questions

    It reads the file and builds a 10-question multiple-choice test, with plausible wrong options rather than obvious filler.

  3. 3

    Sit it and see the score

    Answer, submit, and get your score with the correct answers. Redrill the ones you got wrong.

What do your results look like?

A paragraph of contract law notes, and the marked paper you get back after sitting the 10 questions written from it. Sample material, written by us to show the shape of the output.

What you uploaded

Contract law revision notes.pdf

A binding contract requires an offer, acceptance, consideration, and an intention to create legal relations. An invitation to treat, such as goods displayed in a shop window, invites an offer rather than making one.

Your marked paper

Your score

7 of 10

3 of the 10 questions

  • Correct

    Goods priced in a shop window are best described as what?

  • Correct

    Two friends agree to meet for lunch. Which requirement of a binding contract is missing?

  • Missed

    Consideration must be sufficient. Why need it not be adequate?

    Consideration has to carry some value in the eyes of the law. Courts leave it to the parties whether that value matches the promise it buys.

The three you missed come back on their own as a shorter round, and redrilling them spends no part of your allowance.

The scored multiple-choice quiz runs on every plan, Free included. Student and Genius stretch a paper to 30 questions and add flashcards and written recall over the same set.

Testing beats rereading

A test on your syllabus, not a generic one

  • Questions from your own syllabus

    A generic question bank tests a generic course. This tests the material your exam is actually set from.

  • Scored, so you find out where you are

    Rereading feels productive and tells you nothing. A score tells you what you would have got if the exam were today.

  • Wrong answers you have to think about

    The distractors are written to be plausible, so passing the test means knowing the material rather than spotting the odd one out.

  • Redrill what you missed

    Questions you got wrong come back, and the same material is also available as flashcards or a written recall drill.

Practice test questions

How do I make my own practice test?

Upload the notes or slides you are revising and GeniusPal writes a multiple-choice test from them, 10 questions on the Free plan and up to 30 on a paid one. There is nothing to install and no question bank to browse: the test is built from your file, so it covers your syllabus rather than a generic version of your subject. GeniusPal reads the whole document, picks the definitions, mechanisms, and distinctions a marker would ask about, and writes plausible wrong options alongside each correct answer. You can drop a file in before you sign in, and you create a free account at the point the test is generated so your score has somewhere to live. Once it exists you can sit it, see the score, and redrill the questions you got wrong, none of which costs another generation.

How many questions do I get?

Each generated set is 10 questions on the Free plan, and a paid plan raises the ceiling to 30. The larger sizes are generated over proportionally more of your document rather than by asking about the same pages twice, so a longer test means wider coverage of the chapter. 10 is deliberately sized to be a real test you will actually finish in a sitting, since an eighty-question paper generated at eleven at night gets abandoned at question twenty. Upload a different section of the material to generate another test on it. Re-uploading the same document does not restart it either: GeniusPal recognises the material by its text and carries on into the next stretch, so working through a long chapter takes you forward rather than round in a circle.

Are the questions multiple choice?

The scored test is multiple choice, with plausible wrong options rather than obvious filler, so passing means knowing the material instead of spotting the odd one out. Each set is screened before you see it for the tells that let people score without understanding anything: an answer that gives itself away by being the longest, options that repeat each other, and "all of the above". After you submit you get your score with the correct answers and an explanation for each, and the questions you got wrong can be redrilled on their own. The same uploaded material can also be studied as flashcards or as a written recall drill where you answer from memory with nothing to choose between, which is the harder and more honest test of whether you have it. The scored multiple-choice test runs on every plan; the other two modes come with Student or Genius.

Can I print the test or give it to a class?

There is no print or export option today, and no way to hand a generated test to someone else as a paper. The test is sat inside GeniusPal because that is what makes it a test rather than a document: it marks you as you go, records which questions you missed, and brings those back for a redrill afterwards. A printed sheet is a static list that cannot do any of that, and the scoring is the entire reason to sit a practice test instead of rereading the chapter. This makes GeniusPal a poor fit if you are a teacher assembling a paper to distribute, and an exam-generator tool built for classroom handouts will serve you far better. It is built for one student testing themselves on their own material.

How much does the practice test generator cost?

This is the one tool here whose free version is the entire thing. Scored multiple choice runs on every plan, so each of the Free plan's 2 sets is a complete practice test on your own material: written from your file, marked, explained, and redrillable on whatever you got wrong, with no card required. What eventually runs out is generations rather than features. The 2 arrive once for the account and never top up, so a third test means a plan. Student asks $14.99 each month against 100 tests; Genius takes $59.99 once for a year under a fair-use ceiling of 1000 monthly. Paying stretches a paper from 10 questions to 30 over proportionally more of your document, and adds flashcards and written recall over the same questions. Redrilling the questions you missed costs nothing on any plan. Sitting a whole test again from the start is covered 2 times per test on Free, and is uncounted on Student and Genius.
