    Generating Multiple Choice Questions

    • A key requirement for generating multiple choice questions is that they should be clear, concise, and unambiguous.

    Avoiding Common Mistakes

    • When writing multiple choice questions, it is essential to avoid ambiguous or complex language that can confuse test-takers.
    • Another thing to avoid is giving away the correct answer through grammatical inconsistencies, such as using a different verb tense or sentence structure for the correct response compared to the distractors.
    • Placing the correct answer in the same position for multiple questions in a row should also be avoided to prevent test-takers from simply choosing the same option repeatedly.
