Create new question: This option allows you to add questions along with answer choices one at a time. This option is best if you want to add images, equations or other types of special formatting to your questions. More instructions on this method here.
Copy and paste: This option allows you to submit your information in bulk using Excel. This option is the best and fastest option as long as most of your questions don't have images or equations. More instructions on this method here.
File upload: Similar to the copy and paste option, this allows you to upload your information in bulk using an Excel file. Like the copy and paste option this isn't optimal if your questions carry images and equations, but it's extremely fast and efficient as opposed to manually inputting questions or selecting questions from your question bank.
