Why slides make good questions
A lecture deck is already a filtered syllabus. Someone decided what mattered enough to put on a slide, and your exam is written by the same department. Generating from the deck keeps that emphasis instead of replacing it with a general purpose bank.
Getting a clean import
- Upload the .pptx file itself, or export to PDF, rather than photographing the screen. Either way a text layer gives exact quotes and exact slide or page numbers.
- Keep one deck per document so chapter mastery maps onto lectures.
- Include the handout or transcript if the slides are sparse. More prose means better vignettes.
- Scanned or photographed notes still work; they go through optical character recognition first. See scanned material.
Choosing question types
| Material | Ask for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Definitions, classifications, drug classes | Single best answer and true or false | Fast recall drilling with unambiguous keys |
| Mechanisms and pathways | Multi-select | Forces you to hold several steps at once |
| Clinical presentation and management | Clinical vignette | Tests applied reasoning the way an exam does |
| Anything you will be asked out loud | Short answer | The grader scores your wording against the source |
What the page number buys you
Every accepted question prints the quote it was built from and the slide it is on. When a question surprises you, you go straight to that slide instead of hunting through the deck. It also means a question can be checked and, if the slide itself is wrong, dismissed.
Questions about lecture material
What file types work?
PDF, Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx) and plain text (.txt and .md), plus text you paste in and a public web page by its address. A PowerPoint file is read one slide per slide, so its citations line up with the lecture. The lecture slides page covers decks in detail.
Will it quote the slide titles?
It quotes whatever carries the fact, usually the body text of a slide. Slides that are only a title and an image give little to work with, so pair them with the handout if you have one.
How long does a lecture take?
The only generation timing this site prints is the one it measured on September 23, 2026: 20 questions from a 44 to 60 page textbook chapter in about 15 to 18 seconds on the free pool. The table on the how it works page names the files behind it.
