Skip to main contentWhen should you use Dynamic Mode?
If you’re not particular about chapter-wise marks distribution and prefer a standard exam format such as 40, 60, 80, or 100 marks papers, then Dynamic Mode is the right choice.
This mode is also helpful when you want to create an annual exam-style paper using only selected chapters. For example, if you want to make an 80-mark paper similar to CBSE board exams but with fewer chapters, Dynamic Mode is the best choice.
