- Score Reports – You should remember when you were in school you had attempted such exams in which you needed to select answers and provide your worksheets to teacher. Teacher then actually kept that score card with himself for students record and grade them later. You can do all the above stuff online with ProProfs Quiz School also. We provide users score report, score cards so that the author can actually see how the users are playing the quizzes and also grade bonus points if required.
