Studying exam questions, not flashcards?
Flashcard apps such as Anki and Quizlet are great for vocabulary and definitions. When what you have is a bank of exam-style questions — multiple choice and true/false, with explanations — QuizBao is built for that job.

Flashcards or a question bank?
| Flashcard apps | QuizBao | |
|---|---|---|
| Built around | Cards: a prompt on the front, the answer on the back | Exam questions: a stem, options, the correct answer and an explanation |
| Adding content | Type cards, or import lists of cards | Import the Excel, Word or PDF files you already have |
| How you're tested | Recall the answer and rate how well you knew it | Pick an answer and get scored right away |
| Exam practice | Some apps build quizzes from your cards | Timed random papers with scoring and a pass line |
| Mistakes | Hard cards come back more often | A mistake book, spaced review and weak spots by chapter and type |
When each one fits
A flashcard app, if…
- You're learning vocabulary, terms or definitions
- You write your own cards as you study
- You want a large library of shared decks
QuizBao, if…
- You have past papers or question banks in Excel, Word or PDF
- Your exam is multiple choice or true/false
- You want timed mock exams and a mistake book
- You'd rather not create an account or study online
Plenty of people use both: a flashcard app for terms, QuizBao for question practice.
FAQ
Can I import my Anki or Quizlet decks?
QuizBao imports question banks rather than card decks. If your cards are really questions with options, put the question, options and answer in their own spreadsheet columns and import the Excel file.
Does QuizBao use spaced repetition?
Yes. Mistakes come back on a schedule based on the forgetting curve, and a question counts as mastered after you get it right a few times in a row.
Is it free?
The free version holds one bank of up to 100 questions, forever. The full version is a 7-day pass or a one-time purchase — no subscription.
