Improve pass scores using mock exams.

How to create practice exams

ClassMarker's stands out as an excellent choice for creating online mock exams. The test engine supports various question types, including matching, multiple choice, true/false, and short answer. Plus, instant feedback facilitates continuous learning improvement.

1. Create your test

• Go to the Tests section, select 'New Test',
• Enter a Test name and select 'Start Adding Questions'.

2.Assign your test:

• Once a Test is created you will need to provide your users access to it. ClassMarker calls this 'Assigning' your Test. You can assign tests:
• Creating Groups of registered members: Members take Tests you assign to their Group only. Groups are great for testing the same users on a regular basis. Registration is required.
• Or using Links: One Link for Testing all Users. Links are great for 'once off' or 'bulk testing'. No need to pre-register Users.

3. Define settings

Aisha applies exam settings that closely resemble the format and content of actual exams. Below are some examples:

Test setup:

• Attempts: She sets the number of attempts to unlimited, allowing students to retake practice exams until they achieve a satisfactory grade. This repetition reinforces learning and builds confidence.
• Save results: Aisha selects not to save results so she can give unlimited tests without using any credits from her account.

Taking the test:

• Time limits: This adds an element of pressure, which can be beneficial for simulating real Test-taking scenarios. Additionally, time limits can help to prevent cheating and keep participants focused.
• randomly selected questions: This means that a random set of quiz questions can be pulled randomly from a question bank each time the Test is taken. Randomization provides a more significant challenge for test-takers and ensures that the exam is genuinely Testing the individual's knowledge.
• Provide instant review in “Answers Settings”: With Instant review and Change answers both enabled, Test takers can review gradings and re-attempt Questions during the Test to achieve 100%.

Test completion:

• The Return Link can redirect them back to the test for another attempt. It can lead to a different page, possibly the course homepage or your own website. Alternatively you can simply set the return link to go back to the beginning of the test.
