  How to make a multiple choice test

  If the goal is to design multiple-choice questions, the "radio button" field should be used because using this field will allow you to select only one option. In the field settings, in the "Title" section, you can write down the form of the question (1), also from the "Display method" section, you can choose to display the options in columns or rows (2) and if a question needs an explanation (guide or The optionality of the question) can be used in the field description section.

  

  How to make descriptive test

  To design descriptive questions, you can use the multi-line text field and write the title of the question in the "Title" section as before.

  

  There are other possibilities in using the multi-line field. For example, the designer creates a question and according to the content of the topic, he can specify the minimum and maximum characters required by the user from the "character limit" section (2) and specify the width of the field in the "size" section (3) and the number of field lines can be adjusted from the "height" section (4).

  

  Load answers to questions

  In many subjects such as mathematics, in order to solve the questions, it is necessary for the student to write and upload the answers to the questions on paper, which is made possible by using the attached field.

  

  If the answer to the question must be sent in voice form, you can set the file type field to the voice recording mode in the settings section so that the form recorder will record and send the voice during the test. In the same way, you can specify the type of file according to your needs and determine the size of the file to be sent.

  

  Determine the score using the formula field

  Scoring test questions in the formican form builder can be done using the formula field. Before the training, it is worth mentioning that online grading can only be done for multiple-choice questions and descriptive questions need to be reviewed by the designer and cannot be graded immediately after the end of the exam. For multiple-choice questions, after specifying each option from the field settings section, by selecting "Numeric value" you can consider 1 for the correct option and 0 for the rest. (According to the number of questions and the final score, the value of the correct option can be changed)

  

  In the following, a formula field will be used, in order not to display the score during the test, the "no title" option must be active in the field settings and the "display method" must be set to hidden mode. Then using Formula field questions can be added together to display the total numerical value of the options selected by users at the end.
