For a quiz about a particular reading, paste the reading rather than just its title.
Use interview questions to discover experience instead of presuming it.
Keep one main question per line so a respondent knows what to answer.
A purpose note helps you remove repeated questions that probe the same idea.

Does it create an answer key?

Can I use only a topic?

Yes. Questions will be broader, and you should check any premise that depends on factual knowledge.

Can I use it for an interview?

Choose Interview and provide the role or subject. Do not paste private biographical information you do not need.
