๐Ÿ“ Quizzes & Prep Packs

What Are Prep Packs?

A Prep Pack is an auto-generated quiz built from the documents in one of your Notebooks. Tesseract reads your material, writes questions across several formats, grades your answers, and gives explanations. You can also export a quiz as a printable PDF.

Quizzes live inside notebooks โ€” look for the Prep Packs section in a notebookโ€™s documents panel.
