What it does

Instead of manually rebuilding MCQs one by one, this add-on lets you:

  • paste raw MCQ text
  • parse the question stem, options, answer, source, and explanation
  • review and edit parsed questions before import
  • push cleaned notes into Anki
  • install the bundled MCQ-NB note type directly from inside the add-on

Main Features

  • built for messy real-world MCQ formatting
  • supports many question and option formats
  • supports mixed answer/source ordering
  • review workflow before import
  • safer import rules with confirmation when only trailing options are missing
  • bundled installer for the MCQ-NB note type
  • fully local workflow

Important Note

This add-on is designed around an MCQ workflow and works best with the bundled MCQ-NB note type (You can get it inside the addon).

Expected field order:

  1. Question
  2. option_1 (A)
  3. option_2 (B)
  4. option_3 (C)

  7. Source
  8. Ans
