Legacy Portal: Export Questions and Cumulative Statistics

You can select questions by folder or by category and export them to a text-based RTF file or a formatted PDF file.

The content of the export depends on the selected file type.

  • Both file formats include the question, the answer choices, the correct answer, and the assigned categories.
  • The PDF is formatted for easy readability and includes extra content: images, attachments, internal comments, the item weight, partial credit, and any available psychometrics from posted assessments. 
  • The RTF is an importable file format. This file has the same file format and question syntax that is used for question files that are imported into ExamSoft. The RTF file does not include the extra content in the PDF but includes the question type and the folder. 

Note: If you want to see the question statistics for a particular assessment, see: Legacy Portal: View the Item Analysis Report
