What a unit test needs to do
A unit test has a harder job than a quiz. It has to sample every skill you taught across several weeks, weight them sensibly, and still fit one class period. That means spreading questions across the whole unit rather than over-testing whichever topic came last.
- Measure mastery across an entire unit, not a single lesson
- Maintain a consistent 5 easy · 3 medium · 2 hard difficulty balance
- Include a step-by-step answer key for faster, more consistent grading
- Produce equivalent A/B versions for make-ups and retakes
- Print-ready format for direct classroom use
Example unit test preview
1. Find 15% of 240
2. Evaluate: 6^2 - 4 x 5
3. The perimeter of a square is 52 cm. Find its side length.
4. Solve for y: 3(y - 2) = 4y - 11
5. A map scale is 1 cm : 25 km. Two cities are 7.5 cm apart. Find the real distance.
6. The mean of five numbers is 18. Four of them are 12, 20, 15 and 24. Find the fifth.
Answer key preview
1. 36
0.15 x 240 = 36.
2. 16
6^2 = 36, then 4 x 5 = 20, then 36 - 20 = 16.
3. 13 cm
52 / 4 = 13.
4. y = 5
3y - 6 = 4y - 11, so 11 - 6 = 4y - 3y, giving y = 5.

Unit test FAQ
What is the difference between a unit test and a chapter test?
In practice they overlap. A chapter test usually follows one textbook chapter, while a unit test often spans several related chapters and checks whether students can connect the ideas. Both use the same generator here — you just widen the topic selection for a unit test.
How many questions should a math unit test have?
Ten questions with a 5 easy, 3 medium, 2 hard split gives you a readable mastery picture without a full period of grading. Longer is not automatically more accurate.
Can I make a second version for students who were absent?
Yes. Generate an equivalent B version covering the same topics at matched difficulty, so a make-up test is fair without reusing the exact items the class already reviewed.
