Question Sections

Counts & DOK levels

True / False

Question count DOK / difficulty

Prevent duplicate topics

Bonus word format: One key term per statement is bolded and underlined. For false statements, correcting only that term earns 0.5 pt bonus. The answer key lists the correction for every false item.

Multiple Choice

Question count DOK / difficulty

Prevent duplicate topics

Scoring format

Confidence-based: Each option gets a blank. Students distribute 4 points — all 4 on one if certain, split if unsure. Points earned only on the correct answer blank. Full directions printed on exam.

Standard: Students circle or write the letter of the best answer. Clean directions printed: "Choose the BEST answer." No blanks in front of options.

Matching

Number of sets DOK / difficulty

Prevent duplicate topics

Custom topics (optional)

Matching set 1 topic Matching set 2 topic Matching set 3 topic

Leave blank to draw from the Topics Bank.

Free Response / Brain Dump

Prompt count DOK / difficulty

Brain Dump options

Brain Dump format — student chooses ONE topic group

Include a chart table to complete (columns vary by topic)

Each Brain Dump question offers 2-3 topic options. Student picks ONE, places a check mark, and completes the chart. Directions are printed at the top.

Answer distribution: The AI writes all questions naturally first, then audits and balances correct answers across A, B, C, and D — no letter more than 2× in a row, no predictable patterns, no B/C clustering. DOK levels are labeled and verified post-generation.

How to reach your target

Recommended ranges by exam type

Recall <30

Orientation quizzes, pre-tests, first-week check-ins. Pure terminology and anatomy identification. Appropriate when introducing a body system for the first time.

Foundational 30–50

Weekly module quizzes, early-semester unit checks. Mix of recall and basic application. Good default for formative assessments where the goal is reinforcement, not stress.

Moderate 51–70

Standard unit exams and midterms. Balances recall with clinical application and comparison questions. This is the recommended default for most A&P I & II summative exams.

Challenging 71–85

Cumulative finals, comprehensive midterms, advanced cohort exams. Requires synthesis across systems, mechanism reasoning, and clinical scenario analysis. Expect class averages around 70–80%.

Advanced >85

Pre-professional prep, USMLE/NCLEX practice, doctoral-level integrative exams. Heavy DOK 3–4 with multi-system integration, pathophysiology, and extended case-based reasoning. Not recommended for standard A&P courses without scaffolding.
