What is ProProfs Quiz School?
ProProfs Quiz School is a free, easy-to-use quiz creation site that creates a social environment around quizzes for both "fun" and "learning". You can use Quiz School to create a free quiz for your classroom, company, blog or friends. ProProfs Quiz School is like "YouTube Of Quizzes". Through ProProfs Quiz School, quizzes can be easily created, tagged, shared, discussed and embedded across and over the web, much like YouTube allows for videos.
Why do you call it Quiz "School"?
The word "School" comes from our origins as an educational site. The first version of Quiz School was purely educational in intent, whereas now ProProfs is a player in the broader "online knowledge exchange" market covering education & more. In this new release of the ProProfs Quiz School, powerful customization controls for scoring, visuals, and styles ensure that the product provides value to varied user types ranging from educational users, knowledge seekers, as well as users just looking to have fun with easy-to-create quizzes for their blogs or social networks.
How is this different from other quiz services?
ProProfs Quiz School is unique in that it is the most advanced quiz service on the web and is completly free. Quiz School offers the most cutting-edge features in the industry such as statistics/analytics, geographic user identification, flexible result types, style customizations and seamless integration with other websites. The focus at Quiz School is flexibility and the many features within the site can be combined to provide a variety of applications from exams to recruitment/training or just plain fun. Moreover, we allow our users to decide how they plan on using the site to best fit their needs for all types of quizzes, wether creating "educational" or "fun" quizzes. Users can add pictures to trivia quizzes from Yahoo Flickr, catch a student's attention through clever formatting and styling, or even create full-fledged exams using our authentication controls. All of these features are available through Quiz School at no charge whatsoever.
