Question:
How can I build a new, comprehensive test using my old tests?

Answer:
The easiest way to build a comprehensive test from old tests is to export old tests as question banks. You can either export each test individually or create a combined test and export it. Then, you can build a new test from the question banks.

Question:
What is the difference between a LAN (local area network) test and an Internet test?

Answer:
Using ExamView you can deliver computerized (online) tests two different ways—via a LAN (local area network) and the Internet. The type of online test you use depends on your particular needs.

LAN (local area network) Tests: If you plan to deliver tests in a classroom or lab setting, the LAN version is probably the better option. LAN tests are very easy to set up and administer; and, students do not need access to a browser or the Internet. This option is great for tests and study guides. Using the study guide mode, students can get instant feedback that will help them improve performance.

Internet Tests: If you are in a distance learning environment or you want to deliver tests/study guides to your students at home, the Internet testing option gives you the flexibility you need.

For step-by-step instructions to create a LAN or an Internet test, simply choose the Help option while using ExamView.
