Online exams

Exams and quizzes that grade themselves

Mark the correct answers, share the link and SurvIQ scores every person. At the end you see which questions worked and which ones to change.

1. Mark the correct answer and what it’s worth

On any single choice, multiple choice or dropdown question, turn on "Exam mode", mark the correct option and give it points. You can mix graded questions and opinion questions in the same survey.

  • On multiple choice you can mark several correct options: the question counts only if the person selects exactly those.
  • Each question can be worth something different, or all the same with one click.

2. Set the pass mark

In the exam settings you set the minimum percentage to pass and choose whether people see their result when they finish.

  • While answering, they don’t see which options are correct.
  • After submitting they can see whether they passed and their score, for example 8/10 (80%).

Thanks for responding!

Your response has been recorded successfully.

You passed! You scored 8/10 points (80%)

3. Everyone’s score, with no grading by hand

Each response stores its score. You see it in Individual responses and it comes out in the Excel or CSV download along with the max score and the percentage.

  • In each question’s results you see what percentage got it right.
  • Ask for the student’s name, email or ID with regular questions so you know whose score is whose.

4. Check whether the test is well built

Test analysis calculates the exam’s KR-20 and, for each question, how many got it right, whether it separates people who know more from people who know less, and how much the exam would improve without it.

  • Questions with low discrimination show in red.
  • An arrow marks the questions that lower reliability.
  • Available from the Basic plan.

Discrimination: how much more often people who score well on the rest of the test get this question right (0.3 or higher is good; below 0.2, review it). ↑ = the test would be more reliable without that question.

Frequently asked questions

Do students need to create an account?
No. They answer from the link on a phone or computer, without signing up.
Can I set a time limit?
There’s no timer for now. You can close the exam at a date and time or when it reaches a number of responses.
Can open questions be graded?
Not automatically. Automatic grading works with single choice, multiple choice and dropdown questions. You read open answers in Individual responses.
What is KR-20?
It’s the reliability measure for tests with right and wrong answers. It goes from 0 to 1; 0.7 and above is usually considered acceptable. You can also calculate it for free with our KR-20 calculator if you have the data in Excel.
Do they see the correct answers at the end?
No. If you turn on showing the result, they see whether they passed and their score, but not the answer key.
