Adding Questions to a Test

Questions are added to pages inside the test editor. Each page holds a list of items drawn from your Question Bank or created inline. Clicking the Add button at the bottom of a page opens a menu with several ways to populate the page.

Add Menu Options

From Question Bank

Opens a full-screen question picker backed by your Question Bank. Before the picker opens, you can set defaults that apply to all questions you select in this operation:

• Mandatory — candidates must answer these questions before moving to the next page.
• Non-scored — questions are shown but do not contribute to the test score (useful for trial or pilot questions).

Inside the picker, browse by folder, filter by type or tags, and select one or multiple questions. All selected questions are added to the page in a single action.

Create New Question

Opens the question creator without leaving the test editor. Once you save the new question, it is added to the Question Bank and placed on the current page immediately. After creation, you can choose to continue creating another question.

Add Content Block

Adds a non-question rich-text block to the page. Content blocks can contain text, images, tables, or any formatted content. Use them for instructions, reading passages, or context that appears alongside questions but is not itself a question.

Load Composite

Composites (content groups) are pre-built collections of questions and content blocks that can be reused across tests. Selecting a composite loads all of its items onto the page at once. If the composite has a sidebar layout configured (for reading-passage style pages), you are asked whether to also copy the sidebar settings.

Random Selector

Available on plans that include the randomization feature. Adds a rule-based randomizer that selects questions dynamically from the Question Bank at test-generation time based on filters you define (folder, tags, dimensions). Unlike a static list of questions, a random selector adapts as your Question Bank grows.

Reordering Questions

Use the up and down arrow controls on each question card to change its position within the page. The order updates immediately and is saved automatically.

Scoring Multipliers

Each question on a page has a scoring multiplier — a weight that scales the question's base score within the test. By default all multipliers are 1 (no change). Adjusting the multiplier lets you make certain questions worth more or less without changing the question's base score in the Question Bank.

• Positive score — the multiplier applied when the question is answered correctly.
• Negative score — the penalty applied for an incorrect answer. Used in tests where wrong answers deduct points.

Removing Questions

Click the Remove control on a question card to remove it from the page. The question remains in the Question Bank — only the reference from this page is deleted.

If you need randomization across a large number of questions, consider using a Page Builder instead. Page builders let you define a pool and let the system pick questions automatically for each test-taker.

Tip

Scoring overrides include scored dimensions: the test's copy of a question fully overrides its scoring, including the scored dimension list and strategy. Edits affect this test only — and only sessions created after the edit.
