Use Custom Questions in Custom Exams

Create Exams Using Your Custom Questions

Once your question library houses your questions, you can then use your custom questions to create custom exams using our Custom Exam Builder.

YES! You can now build customized online exams using your own questions – and then use Assignments to assign them out to your online learners!

Create Exams Using Multiple Sources

When you are creating a custom exam, when you select a course (a question bank resource), choose “Custom Questions.”

Your custom questions are their own question bank. You can build an exam using your questions only – or use multiple question sources to create a blended exams featuring your own questions and some from Med-Challenger content.

Guided Remediation links take you to deeper dives in areas of weakness.

E-Assign Your Custom Exams

Once you’ve created a custom exam using your questions, our integrated Assignment Manager allows you to schedule and send digital assignments to your learners from anywhere.

Assignment management includes shared calendaring, real-time compliance tracking data, and performance metrics.

Assignment performance metrics offer an easy way to compare learner proficiency. You’ll see exactly where knowledge deficiencies on assigned materials remain – and you can push targeted remediation on the spot.

Assign custom exams online using your custom questions

Share Questions Across Institutional Faculty

Share and minimize the content and testing workload. Craft gap-proof program curricula and testing. Save faculty time every year.

Authors can share their custom questions with other faculty authors for use in assignable custom exams.

If other authors are enabled under your group institution, you can view and use questions from others – if allowed by the question author.

Status Settings

Authors can set a status of questions for view and use.

Published
Draft
Under Review
Retired

Published questions are available to review and use in Custom Exams. Only the owner of a question can edit it. Question set to Draft, Under Review, or Retired will be available to the owner author to edit, but not available in custom exam builders.

Privacy Settings

In-group authors can make their questions public or private.

Me Only
Other Authors in my Institution (shared)

If a question is marked “me only” then no one but the owner can see the question. If a question is “shared” then other authors in your institution can see and use your questions in building their own custom exams.
