How do Credits work?

Each time one of your tests or surveys are taken, only 1 credit is used. For example:

  1. If you have 1 test and 5 users take it, 5 credits are used.
  2. If you have 2 tests and 5 users take them once each, 10 credits are used.
  3. If 1 user takes the same test twice, this will use 2 credits and so on.

When you buy credits you get access to all upgraded account Features:

  1. Certificate downloading
  2. Email results
  3. Save and review results
  4. Export results
  5. Analyze detailed Statistics
  6. API Integrations
  7. And more...

How to Edit Test settings?

When you assign a test either by Group or Link, you will be provided with a number of customizable settings such as:

  1. test availability
  2. attempts allowed
  3. include certificates
  4. pass mark
  5. feedback messages
  6. and more...

ClassMarker gives you the flexibility to modify and reuse tests and test settings as needed:
To edit the settings for your test go to the Tests section and open the row for your test and select 'Settings' next to the group or link you wish to edit.

How to use Random Questions?

You can enhance security and variety in your tests by randomly pulling questions from categories in your question bank.

With ClassMarker you can create tests with:

  • Fixed questions: Consistent questions every time.
  • Randomly-selected questions: A different set of questions is displayed every time.
  • A combination of fixed (consistent) and randomly-selected questions (varying every time).

Tip: Combine random and fixed questions to give users consistent content with a fresh mix of questions each time they take a quiz. Add further customization by creating Question Bank categories with different levels of difficulty.

How to duplicate tests?

Duplicate a quiz:

  • To save time by reusing existing questions instead of creating from scratch.
  • For consistency: To ensure the core content remains the same while making necessary updates.
  • To tailor quizzes for different audiences or purposes.
  • To track and compare results by creating yearly or periodic versions of the same quiz.

Assistants

The Assistant feature allows you to assign multiple administrator roles (Assistants / Exam Invigilators) within your ClassMarker admin account, with different access permissions that you can set for each Assistant.

You can give your Assistants full permissions or give them specific types of permissions, such as viewing results only, managing tests and surveys, Categories and the Question Bank or allow an Accounts person to only upgrade your account.

Each Assistant you add to your account will have their own login, including a username and password.

You can also create an Assistant without login permission. This will allow you to select their email address to have Test results sent to or Accept Test payments if you charge for your Exams or surveys.

  1. From the My Account menu, select the 'Assistants' option.

  2. First add the Assistants Name and email address.

    Note: A verification email will be sent to the Assistants email address before this Assistant can be selected to have results sent to them.
    If you want the Assistant to Login to help manage your account, select 'Yes' and add a Username and Password for them to login with. Otherwise, just select 'Save' at the bottom of the page.

    Note: Backup Email option - A backup email address can be used if you lose access to your registered email address in this account, for example, if you move organizations, or or simply lose access to your email, you can use a backup email to gain access to your ClassMarker account again. A collegue can also be set with the Backup email permission.
    You should set at least one Assistant with the Backup email option under your account.
