Question Types

ExamTeX supports several question types:

Multiple Choice: Traditional A/B/C/D questions with automatic answer randomization.
Short Answer: Questions requiring brief written responses.
Calculation: Math problems with space for showing work.
Proof: Mathematical proofs with structured answer space.
Graph Analysis: Questions with economic or mathematical graphs.
Essay: Long-form response questions.

Editing Questions

After generation, you can fully customize your exam:

- Edit question text, answers, and point values
- Add, delete, or reorder questions
- Adjust answer space sizes
- Include or exclude answer keys
- Add custom instructions

Math Notation

ExamTeX uses LaTeX for mathematical notation. Wrap math in dollar signs:

- Inline math: $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$
- Fractions: $\frac{ a }{ b }$
- Subscripts: $P_D$, $Q_S$
- Greek letters: $\epsilon$, $\delta$

The editor shows a live preview of your math as you type.

Exam Settings

Customize the appearance of your exam:

Spacing: Choose compact, normal, or spacious layouts.
Font Size: Select 10pt, 11pt, or 12pt text.
Points: Show or hide point values on questions.
Answer Key: Generate a separate answer key.
Time Limit: Display exam duration in the header.

Tips for Best Results

Upload quality materials: Clear, well-organized course materials produce better questions.
Be specific with instructions: Use the additional instructions field to guide the AI (e.g., "Focus on Chapter 3" or "Include questions about elasticity").
Review generated content: Always verify mathematical accuracy and appropriateness for your course.
Start with fewer questions: It's easier to add questions than to remove many.

Supported Subjects

ExamTeX works best with quantitative subjects:

- Mathematics (calculus, algebra, statistics)
- Economics (micro, macro, econometrics)
- Finance (corporate finance, investments)
- Physics
- Other STEM fields
