Description

Dear sir,
How can I write Multiple choice questions in the following format ***
Question 1: What is the largest country in the globe?

A) China
B) Russia
C) USA
D Canada

As you can see the choices are in alphabetic order and no boxes appear. Further, every
choice is in a single row similar to itemize environment in Latex.

Thanks for your kind help.

I am using automultiplechoice as a style file in the source tex file.
Best
jaafar

Why don't you want boxes to appear?

thanks for your reply. No problem but how can I type the alphabet inside the boxes. Further is it possible to keep only 2
questions in each sheet. That is if I have 10 questions then I wish to have 5 sheets for each student.

You can use the insidebox package option

Further is it possible to keep only 2 questions in each sheet.

Maybe you can put your questions in a group with mode cyclic, shuffle it once, and then insert questions 2 by 2?

\setgroupmode{mygroup}{cyclic}
...
\shufflegroup{mygroup}
\insertgroup[2]{mygroup}
\clearpage
\insertgroup[2]{mygroup}
\clearpage
\insertgroup[2]{mygroup}
\clearpage
\insertgroup[2]{mygroup}
\clearpage
\insertgroup[2]{mygroup}

Hi @Alexis!

My question is related to this topic so it is better not to open new issue.

I have 4 groups (g1,g2,g3,g4) and I want to take from each group one question per examGroup.

That is:
One exam group (for my students, examGroup A) contains:
- first question from q1
- first quesiton from q2
- first question from q3
- first question from q4

Then, next group (for my students, examGroup B) contains:
- second question from q1
- second question from q2
- second question from q3
- second question from q4

and further.

Please, can you provide instructions how to realize this scenario?

Thank you,
M

I would say the forums are a better place for your question, especially as this feature request is closed.
