Manage Questions
The Question Bank is a centralized pool of multiple-choice questions organized by class section and subject. Questions stored here can be reused across multiple online exams — either assigned manually or picked randomly.
Shared across exams
A single question in the bank can be assigned to many different online exams. Editing a question here updates it everywhere.
