Anki add-on: Exam Simulator - NB

Exam Simulator - NB Exam Simulator - NB is an Anki add-on designed to turn MCQ-based note banks into a true exam-style simulation workflow inside Anki. Built by Nasrellah Benammar , an Algerian medical student, this project was created with one clear goal: to help other medical students study more effectively and train in conditions that feel closer to real exams. Instead of relying only on standard review mode, the add-on lets you build custom simulations , apply timing and scoring rules, sit the exam in a dedicated interface, and review your results in a structured way afterward. Screenshots Exam Setup Exam Interface Results Review Main Features Build custom MCQ exams directly inside Anki Filter questions by: Deck Tags Simulation History Flags Timed or untimed exam mode Shuffle question order Multiple scoring systems: All or Nothing Partial Positive + Partial Negative - Dedicated exam interface with: exam-paper style question view answer sheet grid timer support zoom controls Detailed post-exam review Bulk tagging and flagging of selected questions after the exam Local simulation history managed by the add-on Why I Built This As a medical student, I wanted something better than passive review alone or the standard spaced repetition flashcards style. I wanted a way to simulate exam conditions , test myself on selected MCQs, and review mistakes properly afterward. This add-on is part of that effort, and I hope it can help other medical students do the same. Important Note This add-on is currently designed primarily for the MCQ-NB note type and expects the following field names: Question option_1 (A) option_2 (B) option_3 (C) option_4 (D) option_5 (E) Ans Source Explanation If you do not already have the MCQ-NB note type, you can download it through my other add-on, which parses MCQs and sets up the required note type: MCQ Parser add-on Simulation History Named simulations are stored locally in the current Anki profile. It does not create normal Anki tags for simulation history Deleting simulation history does not delete notes Unnamed exams are not saved in simulation history Privacy This add-on stores its simulation history locally in your Anki profile. It does not require any external account, server, or online service. Source GitHub : exam-simulator-nb License MIT License
