What is a Pool Test?

Pool Test - Overview: 

A pool test is a type of assessment where questions are drawn from a predefined pool or bank of questions. This method allows for greater variety and randomness in the questions presented to each candidate.

Key features of a pool test:

1. Question Pool: A large collection of questions on a specific subject or range of topics is maintained in a database or pool.
2. Random Selection: Questions are randomly selected from this pool for each test attempt, ensuring that no two tests are exactly the same.
3. Customization: The test creator can specify criteria for selecting questions, such as difficulty level, topic, or question type.
4. Flexibility: Pool tests can be configured to include a specific number of questions or to pull all questions from the pool.
5. Security: By randomizing questions for each candidate, pool tests reduce the chances of cheating and ensure a fair assessment process.
6. Efficiency: Automated selection of questions from the pool can save time for test administrators.

Overall, pool tests provide a robust and flexible way to assess knowledge while maintaining test integrity and variability.
