Hence: Since the test itself is neutral and consist of questions with different types, the test change inside a course when its in a context and added features like an attached grade system. As for example: The same test with the same test questions given to a 5th grade or to a 7th grade student can have different levels of percent correct to get a diploma. To understand this difference is essential since you as an author needs to understand the audience in the creating process.

If You choose a Question with Multiple correct answers one or many answers can be correct and checkboxes instead of radio buttons are the option. You can change the question if you happen to regret it once you choose.
How to import great MCQ questions already created for you
If you choose the third option, "Import MCQs from WOK" you can pick among 500000 (!) Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) from the WikiMaster app in the World of Knowledge / WOK system. You write any Wikipedia article, and the questions attached to these questions are available for import to the KLMS test. You can choose one or many Wikipedia articles to import from. And you drag how many you like to import. Some articles have many questions (in this example: the Science article is a wide article and has over 11000 MCQs to choose from). Science Museum article has only 2. Some Wikipedia articles exist without questions in WOK, and these articles are for natural reasons not available. Note that questions are created on a daily basis by the WOK Community (a sibling to Wikipedia) so you might be able to import tomorrow's questions that are not available today.
Overall: for students and teachers using KLMS for an educational reason based on general facts: access to the WOK database system is a great tool and saves a tremendous amount of time. For HR departments and admin in companies creating tests based on routines for employees within the company, WOK questions are not the tool of the first choice. These questions are in need to be created from scratch.
