A quiz is a form of game or mind sport in which players attempt to answer questions correctly on one or several specific topics. Quizzes can be used as a brief assessment in education and similar fields to measure growth in knowledge, abilities, and skills, or simply as a hobby.

The students then have a better idea of how well they are grasping the material, hopefully motivating them to study more and helping them allocate their study time effectively by focusing on the information that still needs more practice. Keep your questions short and simple. Ideally, your question should be 6-10 words only. Short questions are practical and will keep quiz takers engrossed in your quiz. Reading long questions, on the other hand, can be a bit boring for the audience, and will ultimately make them lose interest. Questions should be neither too hard nor too easy: No one likes feeling stupid while playing trivia. On the other hand, if the game is too easy, people won't come back, either. So, try to find the sweet spot in the middle with some easy questions and some hard questions. The sweet spot can take a while to find.
