• Question Type: decides what kind of question participants will answer:
  
  1. Multiple Choice
     Participants choose the one correct answer.
     Example: The capital of Indonesia is …
     A. Bandung
     B. Jakarta
     C. Surabaya
  2. Short Answer
     Participants type a short answer, either a number or text. You can set more than one answer that counts as correct. Set the key in the Answer Key section that appears when you choose this type: Answer Format (Text or Number), Main Answer Key and Other Accepted Answers.
     Example: The capital of Indonesia is …
     Correct answers: DKI Jakarta or Jakarta
  3. Complex Multiple Response (True/False, Fact/Opinion, etc.)
     For each statement, participants choose one of two labels. The labels can be True/False, Fact/Opinion, Matches/Does Not Match, Agree/Disagree, Yes/No or any other labels you set. Choose them in Label Pair under Statement Column Labels; choose Other labels (type your own) to write your own.
     Example:
     • The sun rises in the east — True
     • Water freezes at 100°C — False
  4. Matching (Drag & Drop)
     Participants pair up the options that belong together. Fill in the pairs in the Matching Pairs section (Statement (Left) and Answer (Right)); the right-hand side is shuffled during the exam.
     Example:
     • Indonesia → Jakarta
     • Japan → Tokyo
• Question Group: groups several questions that share the same material or topic.
  
  Example: there is one reading passage called “School Environment”, and 3 questions are written about it. All three questions can go into the School Environment question group. Participants read the same material, then answer several related questions. Another example:
  • Question group: Reading Text 1
  • Question 1: What is the main idea of the text?
  • Question 2: Who are the characters in the text?
  • Question 3: What is the conclusion of the text?

  If each question stands on its own and doesn’t use shared material, you can leave Question Group empty.

• Passages: choose a shared reading text to show above the question text. The list of passages comes from the Passages tab of the question package (see the Create Passages (Shared Reading Texts) section on the Create a Question Package page). Leave it empty if the question doesn’t use a reading text.
• More Than One Answer: use this when a question has more than one correct answer. This setting only appears for Multiple Choice questions.
  
  Example: Select the animals that are mammals:
  • Cat ✅
  • Cow ✅
  • Chicken
  • Fish
  In this example, participants must select Cat and Cow.

  Only turn this setting on if participants are really allowed to select several answers. If there is only one correct answer, leave it off.

• Question Media: decides what form the question takes for participants to see or hear.
  
  You can choose more than one Question Media for a single question.
  
  This means one question can combine text, images and audio. For example:
  • Text to write the question.
  • Image to show a chart or an illustration.
  • Audio for listening material.

  Choose the media you need for the kind of question you are creating.

   For example, if the correct answer is Rp300,000, turn on Answer Key only for that option. Leave it off for the other options.
   
3. Answer Score: Enter the score for that option. This field is only used by the Answer Score Calculation (Sum of Answer Scores) scoring method.
   For example, a wrong answer can be given a score of 0.
4. Answer Group: Used only by the Psychometric (Answer Grouping) scoring method. If you don’t use it, you can leave this empty.
5. Answer Text: Write the answer option participants will see.

1. Is Exam Registration Open?
   When this is on, participants can register for the exam themselves. This setting needs the Exam Registration Page and Automatic Payment add-on. If the add-on isn’t active, the setting’s label shows (Add-on Inactive) and the setting can’t be turned on.
2. Payment Type
   Choose Free if participants don’t need to pay. If the exam is paid, choose the matching payment type.
   
   • Free: Participants don’t need to pay.

     Example: A free SNBT tryout made up of a Mathematics Test and an Indonesian Language Test. Participants can take all of them at no cost.

   • One-time Payment: Participants pay once and can then take every test in the exam.

     Example: The SNBT tryout fee is Rp50,000. After paying, participants can take the Mathematical Reasoning Test, the Indonesian Language Literacy Test and the English Language Literacy Test. Participants don’t need to pay again for each test.

   • Paid per Test: Participants pay for each test they want to take.

     Example: Mathematics Test: Rp20,000 Indonesian Language Test: Rp15,000 English Language Test: Rp15,000 Participants who only want to take the Mathematics Test pay just Rp20,000.

   • Paid per Level (Multi-Level): Used for exams made up of several rounds. Participants pay for each round they take part in.

     Example: Preliminary Round: Rp25,000 Semifinal: Rp30,000 Final: Rp40,000 Participants pay the fee for the next round only if they qualify.

3. One-time Exam Fee (IDR)
   The fee participants pay to take the exam. This field appears when the One-time Payment payment type is selected.
4. Assign the Session Automatically After Registration
   Turn this on if participants who register successfully should be put into an exam session automatically. If the Payment Type is One-time Payment or Paid per Test, this setting is called Assign the Session Automatically After Payment.
5. When you’re done, click Save changes.

1. Is This a Multi-Level Exam?
   • Choose Yes (Multi-Level) if the exam has several rounds, for example Preliminary Round, Semifinal and Final.
   • Choose No if the exam has only one stage.
2. Must the Tests Be Taken in Order?
   Turn this on if participants must take the tests in the set order.
   Example: participants must finish the Mathematics Test before they can open the Indonesian Language Test.
3. Must the Tests Be Taken in One Sitting?
   • Turn this on if participants must finish all the tests without stopping or taking a break.
   • If it’s off, participants can leave and continue with the next test later, according to the schedule.
4. Final Score Type
   Choose how a participant’s final score is derived from the scores of every test:
   • Accumulated Exam Test Scores: adds up the score of each test.
   • Averaged Exam Test Scores: divides the total by the number of tests already scored. This option is used by default.
5. Show the Final Exam Score?
   • Turn this on if participants may see their score after finishing the exam.
   • Turn it off if the scores still need checking or will be announced later.

• Exam Type: Choose the type of test you are running.
  
  1. Computer Based Test (CBT)
     Participants see the questions on screen, then choose or type their answers directly in the system.

     Example:
     A participant sees the question: 10 × 5 = … Then selects the answer 50 on screen.

  2. Computer Adaptive Test (CAT)
     The next question adapts to the participant’s ability. You can only choose this option for a Professional Exam (Paid Plan).

     Example:
     A participant answers the first question correctly. The system then gives a slightly harder question. If the participant answers incorrectly, the system can give an easier or similar question.
     CAT is like an exam that “follows the participant’s ability”. The more correct answers, the harder the next questions can get.

  3. Essay / File Upload (Manual Grading)
     Participants don’t choose an answer as they would in a multiple-choice question. They write a long answer or upload a file.

     Examples:

     • Writing an essay answer directly in the system.
     • Uploading a photo of an answer sheet.
     • Uploading a PDF or Word file.

  For a regular SNBT tryout, choose Computer Based Test (CBT).
• Scoring Method: Decide how the system calculates participants’ scores. Every method below is available for Computer Based Test (CBT). A Computer Adaptive Test (CAT) test can only use Question Score Calculation (Sum of Correct/Wrong), and an Essay / File Upload (Manual Grading) test uses Manual Scoring.
  
  1. Question Score Calculation (Sum of Correct/Wrong)
     The score is calculated from the number of questions answered correctly.

     Example:

     • Correct answer: 10 points
     • Wrong answer: 0 points
     • The participant answers 8 out of 10 questions correctly
     • Participant’s score: 80

     Suitable for tryouts or regular multiple-choice exams.
  2. Answer Score Calculation (Sum of Answer Scores)
     Each answer option can carry a different score.

     Example: Question: How often do you study in a week?

     • Every day: 4 points
     • 3–4 times: 3 points
     • 1–2 times: 2 points
     • Never: 1 point

     The final score is the sum of the scores of all the participant’s answers.
  3. Psychometric (Answer Grouping)
     The participant’s answers are grouped to reveal certain tendencies or traits.

     Example: Question: When working in a group, you prefer to…

     • Organise how the tasks are shared → Leadership group
     • Help the other members → Teamwork group
     • Work on your own part → Independent group

     The result isn’t simply right or wrong; it shows which trait group the participant belongs to.
  4. Item Response Theory (IRT)
     The score doesn’t just count correct answers; it also takes the difficulty of each question into account.

     Example:

     • Many participants answer the easy questions correctly.
     • Only a few participants answer the hard questions correctly.
     • Participants who can answer the hard questions can get a higher ability score.

     This method suits large-scale exams or a deeper analysis of participants’ ability. IRT comes in three options:
     • IRT (UTBK reference, 0-1000)
     • IRT TKA for SMA/SMK (200-800)
     • IRT TKA for SD/SMP (0-100)
     All three use the same estimate of the participant’s ability; only the reported score range differs. The UTBK and TKA ranges are reference scales, not official equating.
  For a simple SNBT tryout, choose Question Score Calculation (Sum of Correct/Wrong).
• Test Name: Enter a test name that’s easy to recognise.
  Example: Mathematical Reasoning.
• Working Time (minutes): Enter how long participants have, in minutes.
  Example: 60 minutes. This field doesn’t appear for an Essay / File Upload (Manual Grading) test.
• Test Instructions: Write the instructions participants read before they start.

• {{NAMA_TES}} to show the test name.
• {{JUMLAH_SOAL}} to show the number of questions.
• {{DURASI_TES}} to show the working time.

1. Show Score
   Turn this on if participants may see their score as soon as they finish.
2. Show Summary
   Turn this on if participants may see how many answers they got right and wrong.
3. Show the Test Explanation (PDF)
   Turn this on if you want to share one PDF file with explanations for all the questions. Once it’s on, upload the file in the Test Explanation File (PDF) field.
4. Show the Explanation per Question
   Turn this on if participants may see the explanation for each question. Make sure the explanation has been filled in for each question in the question package. This setting can’t be on at the same time as Show the Test Explanation (PDF).
5. Save changes
   When you’re done, click Save changes.

1. Camera Proctoring
   Turn this on if participants must keep their camera on while taking the exam.
   Example: so proctors can make sure participants are doing the exam themselves.
2. Screen Proctoring (Screen Share)
   Turn this on if participants must share their screen during the exam.
   Example: proctors can see which apps or pages participants have open.
3. Tab Switch Detection
   Turn this on if the system should record when participants open another tab or page during the exam.
   Example: a participant switches from the exam page to a search engine.
4. Allow Only One Screen
   Turn this on if participants may only use one monitor.
   This setting suits exams that need stricter proctoring.
5. Play the Audio Question Once
   Turn this on if the audio in a question may only be played once.
   Example: English listening questions.
6. Play the Audio Answer Once
   Turn this on if the audio in the answer options may only be played once.

The note (Feature inactive) means the feature isn’t available for the exam type you are using. For a Standard Exam (Free Plan), it appears on Camera Proctoring, Screen Proctoring (Screen Share) and Allow Only One Screen.
