Free tools for paper multiple-choice exams
Tools that do one thing, properly, for free, with no account and no email. Everything runs in your browser: nothing you type is sent to a server.
Why free tools?
Around a paper exam there is a handful of small jobs you redo by hand every term: drawing an answer grid, laying it out so it fits one side of paper, reprinting it because a question was missing. Each of these tools does one of them. When the pile of completed papers has to be marked, Papeez takes over, but nothing here requires it and nothing here asks for it.
Where to start
If your questions are already written and what you are missing is the grid students will mark, start here. The sheet comes out as a PDF at true size, with the corner marks that let it be read back by a scanner afterwards. Bubble sheet generator.
If the questions are written but the paper is not, start here instead. Paste them in and the paper lays itself out, with its answer key and as many shuffled versions as the room needs. The two tools are neighbours: set the same number of questions and the same number of answers in both, and the grid fits the paper. Multiple choice test maker.
