# Dynamic Mode
> In Dynamic Mode, you can select the desired chapters, and the paper will be generated automatically based on a predefined blueprint. The same blueprint can be reused with different chapter selections. In this mode, the chapter-wise weightage is distributed almost evenly.
### When 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.
### How to Create Papers in Dynamic Mode?
