Turn your notes into a quiz
Your notes are already the most exam-relevant material you own — they are what your lecturer chose to emphasise, written in the words you actually use. Ace the Test turns them into questions so you can find out what you know rather than assume it.

How it works
Bring the notes in
Photograph handwritten pages (PNG, JPG or WebP), upload a PDF export, or paste plain text, Markdown or CSV.
Generate the question set
Choose 5 to 50 questions and a difficulty. The model pulls the checkable claims out of the notes and writes questions on those.
Answer and track the gaps
Explanations after each question, accuracy recorded per session, and the topics you keep missing surfaced on the dashboard.
Handwriting, abbreviations and the messy middle
Real notes are not clean documents. They have arrows, abbreviations, half-finished sentences and diagrams pointing at things. A vision-capable model handles far more of this than plain OCR does, because it reads the page in context rather than character by character.
It is still worth knowing where the limit sits. Very faint pencil, heavy overlapping annotation, and diagrams whose meaning lives entirely in the drawing rather than the labels are the cases that produce weak questions. When a set comes back thin, the fix is usually a better photo or a page split into two.
Notes from a whole semester generally work better as several question sets than one. A set built from one lecture covers that lecture properly; a set built from twelve covers none of them.
Good for
- Photographs of handwritten lecture notes
- Typed notes pasted straight in as text or Markdown
- Notes exported to PDF from any note-taking app
- Building a question bank one lecture at a time
- Re-testing the same set after a week to see what stuck

Notes to quiz — questions people ask
Will it read my handwriting?
Usually, yes — the model reads the page as an image and uses context, so ordinary handwriting is fine. Faint pencil and heavily overlapping annotations are where it struggles; a brighter photo generally fixes it.
Can I paste text instead of uploading a file?
Yes. Plain text, Markdown and CSV can be uploaded directly, which is the fastest route if your notes already live in a text editor or note app.
How much material should go into one quiz?
About one lecture or one chapter. Question quality is a function of how densely the source covers a single topic, so several focused sets beat one sprawling one.
Does it just summarise my notes back to me?
No. It writes questions about them. The point is retrieval practice — you produce the answer, then see the explanation — not another version of the notes you already have.
