Quiz mode

Quiz mode turns your survey into a scored quiz. You mark the correct answers, set points per question, and PollPe scores every response automatically, surfacing the score in the results view, in exports, and in the webhook payload.

Enable quiz mode​

Open your survey, go to the Create tab, and open the Settings panel. Under Other settings, flip Quiz mode to ON.

  • Quiz mode and Poll mode are mutually exclusive. Turning quiz mode on disables poll mode and vice versa.
  • A sub-toggle Release marks immediately appears under quiz mode. With it on, respondents see whether each answer was correct or incorrect as they go.

Supported question types​

You can mark correct answers on these question types:

  • Single choice
  • Multiple choice
  • Dropdown
  • Yes/No
  • Picture choice

Other types (text, rating, NPS, matrix, file upload, date, etc.) still appear in the quiz, but they are not scored.

Mark correct answers​

With quiz mode on, every scored question card shows an Answer key footer at the bottom.

  1. Click Answer key. A green bar appears with the heading Choose correct answers.
  2. A round checkbox appears next to each choice. Tick the choice (or choices) that count as correct.
    • For single choice, yes/no, dropdown without multiple selection, and picture choice without multiple selection, only one correct answer is allowed.
    • For multiple choice and dropdown/picture choice with multiple selection on, the respondent must pick exactly the marked set to score the points.
  3. Click Done to close the answer key bar. The footer collapses and shows a green pill with the count of correct answers.

Set points per question​

Open the right panel for the active question. The Quiz Settings section shows:

  • Points: points awarded if the respondent picks the correct set of choices for this question. Defaults to 0. Set to 1 or more so the question counts toward the score.
  • Correct answers: read-only count of how many choices you have ticked as correct.

Per-question feedback​

Click Add feedback in the answer key bar to open the feedback dialog. It has two tabs:

  • Incorrect answers: shown if the respondent's answer does not match the correct set.
  • Correct answers: shown if the respondent's answer matches.

Both are optional. Leave them blank to skip per-question feedback.

What respondents see​

If Release marks immediately is on, respondents see a green CORRECT banner with the points earned, or a red INCORRECT banner with 0 points, right after answering each scored question. Your per-question correct or incorrect feedback string is rendered under the banner.

If Release marks immediately is off, respondents complete the survey without inline scoring, and the score is only visible to you (and any webhook or export consumer).

Where the score appears​

PollPe computes the score as a fraction of points earned over total points available across all scored questions.

  • Results view: each response on the Results tab shows the score next to other answer metadata. Open a response to see per-question correct/incorrect badges.
  • Exports: the score is included on response exports.
  • Webhooks: the JSON payload posted to your endpoint includes a quizScore field in the format acquired/total, for example "quizScore": "8/10". See the full payload at Webhooks.

Combine with conditional logic​

Conditional logic in PollPe routes respondents based on their answer choices, not directly on score values. You can still build score-aware flows by routing on the answer that triggers the score, for example:

  • If "Yes" then go to question 5.
  • If "Did not study" then go to the encouragement end screen.

See Logic for the full set of branching options.
