Question Studio

▶ Watch: how to write your first question (2 min)

Write exam questions for your course with Elsie. Pick the topic and exam, and she drafts one question at a time — built the same way as the SI MedEd banks. Each draft goes to two independent checkers who solve it cold and compare against her answer key. Only questions both checkers agree on reach your bank; anything disputed comes back flagged with the reason — never silently shipped. Passed items save into your bank on this device, ready to add to any exam in the Exam Builder.

One question at a time — drafted carefully, then solved independently twice. Checking takes a little while; review the result, keep it or draft another.
