How to Convert a Google Doc to a Google Form Quiz

If you have a list of quiz questions in a Google Doc and want to turn them into an interactive Google Form quiz, you’re in luck. While Google Forms doesn’t offer a native “import from Doc” feature, there’s an efficient workaround, especially when using Formswrite.com, a tool designed to streamline this exact process.

This guide will walk you through how to take your Google Doc and convert it into a fully functioning Google Form quiz.

Step-by-Step: Convert a Google Doc to a Google Form Quiz

1. Format Your Google Doc Clearly

   • Make sure each question is on its own line.

   • For multiple-choice questions, write the options below the question, each on a new line.

Example: What is the capital of France?

A. Berlin

B. Madrid

C. Paris

D. Rome

1. Decide on the Quiz Settings

   • In Google Forms, quizzes can auto-grade, assign points, and show feedback.

   • Note in your Doc which answers are correct using a marker (e.g., an asterisk next to the correct option).

2. Go to Formswrite.com

   • Formswrite allows you to convert Google Docs into Google Forms with just a few clicks.

   • Grant access to your document when prompted and let Formswrite do the parsing.

3. Review the Generated Google Form

   • Once the Form is created, double-check each question and answer.

   • Switch to quiz mode by going to Settings > Quizzes > Make this a quiz.

4. Add Correct Answers and Point Values

   • Google Forms lets you mark the right answers and assign point values for auto-grading.

   • Use the Answer Key for each question to set this up.

5. Customize and Share Your Quiz

   • Add descriptions, images, or sections if needed.

   • Share the quiz link with your students or audience using the Send button.
