FAQ

Is my exam subject saved automatically?

Yes, every change is saved automatically. The editor displays “Auto-saving” and the date of the last save. If a save fails, it displays “Error while saving”: check your connection before leaving the page.

Once the exam is open, click Edit and then confirm to modify the exam subject. Only points, correct choices, tags, and grading comments remain editable, and your changes are always saved automatically. When you are done, click Update grades to update the participants’ grades.
