Logging questions in Exam Mode

StudyRise Help·6 min read·Last updated: July 2026

The Questions screen is where you log question-bank practice — the numbers that power your accuracy trends and weak-area rankings. You can type a session into the log form, paste a provider report and let StudyRise parse it, or flag a loose topic straight into spaced repetition. This guide covers all three, plus the quick logger.

The Questions screen (the /questions route) is your logging surface for question-bank sessions — eMedici, UWorld, or whatever bank you use. Log a session right after you finish a block, and everything downstream — your accuracy trends, your weakest subjects, your readiness signals — stays honest.

The log form

The embedded log form captures a session in a few taps. As you enter your attempted and correct counts, StudyRise shows your live accuracy against your own historical average for that subject and tags it Strong, Improving, or Needs-work — instant feedback on whether the session beat your baseline.

  1. Pick your source (your question bank, or "Other") and mode (Timed / Untimed / Tutor).
  2. Mark whether it was a first attempt or a review, and optionally how confident you felt: Confident / Unsure / Guessed.
  3. Choose a subject and enter attempted and correct counts.
  4. Read your live accuracy against your average, with a Strong / Improving / Needs-work badge.
  5. Below the form, the 30-day accuracy trend, your best and worst subjects, a filterable session history, and a subject-by-subject panel (weakest first) build up as you log.

Paste results

If your provider gives you a results report you can copy, skip the typing. Paste results takes the whole block of text, parses it, matches your subjects fuzzily, and shows everything in an editable table so you can check and correct before it lands in your data.

  1. Tap Paste results and paste your provider's report — it understands per-subject rows, "Subject: 45/60 (75%)" summary lines, and simple totals.
  2. StudyRise auto-parses the text and matches subjects to yours.
  3. Review the editable table, fix anything that mismatched, then Import.

Flag for review

Some things you get wrong aren't a whole subject — they're a single topic you want to come back to. The Flag for review bookmark sends any topic straight into your spaced-repetition queue as a Topic Review, so a loose weakness gets scheduled for recall instead of forgotten.

  1. Tap the Flag for review bookmark icon on the Questions screen.
  2. Name the topic — it doesn't need to belong to a subject task.
  3. Save. It appears as a purple Topic Review in your spaced-repetition queue.

Quick-log from anywhere

When you just want to record the numbers without the full form, use the floating "+" button in the bottom-right of almost every screen. It opens a compact popup for a fast in-and-out — handy mid-session on Today.

  1. Tap the floating "+" from any screen and enter subject, attempted, and correct.
  2. For modes, confidence, the accuracy badge, and paste-import, come back to the full Questions screen. The daily study session guide shows the quick logger in context.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to type in every number?
No. If your question bank gives you a results summary as text, use Paste results — paste the whole block and StudyRise parses per-subject rows, summary lines, and totals, matches your subjects, and lets you review and correct everything in a table before importing.
What is the accuracy badge telling me?
When you enter attempted and correct counts for a subject, StudyRise shows your live accuracy against your historical average for that subject and tags it Strong, Improving, or Needs-work — so you know instantly whether a session was above or below your own baseline.
How do I send a topic to spaced repetition?
Use the Flag for review bookmark on the Questions screen. It opens a small form to add any topic — even one not tied to a specific subject task — straight into your spaced-repetition queue as a Topic Review. It's how loose topics get scheduled for recall.
Can I log a session without opening the Questions screen?
Yes. The floating + button in the bottom-right of almost every screen opens a compact quick-logger for a fast in-and-out. Use the full Questions screen when you want the mode, confidence, accuracy badge, and paste-import; use the + button when you just need to record the numbers.
