database, and have logic on how to construct the exam improves the educational process. Firstly, it increases the
standardization of exams across courses and professors in university, primary or secondary schools, or elsewhere. Secondly, it adds a robustness to exams through
peer review. Thirdly, if offers efficiency to professors in terms of exam production. Finally, the sharing of exam questions improves the quality of examinations for students.
