How a CBT exam runs
Author the paper
Type questions in, bulk-paste a list, pull from a reusable question bank, or paste a paper you already have and let AI structure it into questions and answer keys for a teacher to review.
Set the rules and publish
Choose the duration, the close time and the anti-cheat settings for this exam alone, then publish it. Drafts stay private and editable until you do.
Students sit it
Online in the browser from the student portal — or offline on the Klasstack CBT appliance, which serves the paper to the whole hall over local Wi-Fi with no internet at all.
Scores land in the gradebook
Online submissions are marked instantly; offline papers are marked on the appliance and sync back afterwards. Both are graded by exactly the same rules, and post to results and report cards.
What you get
Exams that survive a power or network cut. The CBT appliance runs on one proctor laptop and serves a whole hall over its own Wi-Fi. Students open a browser — nothing to install on each machine — and the papers sync to your school records when the connection is back.
Question banks you reuse every term. Banks scoped to a subject, a class level or the whole school, organised by topic and shareable across teachers. Tag past-question banks by body and year — WAEC, NECO, JAMB, NABTEB, BECE.
AI that turns your existing papers into CBT. Paste the paper you have been using for years. AI structures it into questions, options and answer keys, preserving your wording, and hands it back as drafts. Nothing is saved until a teacher confirms it.
Anti-cheat settings, per exam. Enforced fullscreen, blocked copy, paste and right-click, one question per screen, a warning before a candidate navigates away, and a hard stop once the close time passes — chosen exam by exam, not forced school-wide.
A live proctor view of the hall. Staff with the right permission subscribe to a running exam and see anti-cheat flags — a candidate leaving fullscreen, switching tabs — as they happen, rather than in a report the next day.
Marking that does not need a red pen. Multiple choice, true/false and short answer are marked on submission. Essay questions come through for the teacher. Scores post to exam results and, where the exam is mapped to an assessment component, into the report card.
Built for the WAEC and JAMB era
Your students will meet CBT whether you offer it or not — JAMB is entirely computer-based, and WAEC, NECO, NABTEB and BECE candidates increasingly sit on screen. Practising in the same shape all term, with a timer running and a question navigator to jump between items, turns exam day into something routine. Keep past-question banks tagged by body and year, and set a mock paper the week before the real one.
CBT is part of the school, not a bolt-on
Because CBT sits inside Klasstack, an exam already knows the class, the subject and the term. A score does not need re-entering to reach results and report cards, exam sittings can be planned against your timetable, and parents see the outcome in the same place they already check fees and attendance.
