How it works
How to turn a Word document into study guides
- 01
Add a Word document
Upload or paste a Word document. Accepted: .docx files up to 20 MB.
- 02
Choose your level
Pick high school, undergraduate, graduate or professional so questions are pitched right.
- 03
Study your study guides
Read the guide to get the shape of the topic, then jump into practice from any section. The guide and the questions come from the same analysis, so they cover the same ground.

How you study them
Read the guide to get the shape of the topic, then jump into practice from any section. The guide and the questions come from the same analysis, so they cover the same ground.
Best for: starting a new unit, condensing a long reading, the night before an exam.
How we read Word documents
We read the .docx structure directly, keeping headings and paragraphs, so a long set of notes is split into topics before any questions are written.
Get the best results
- Use headings. They become the topics of your study guide.
- One document per unit keeps sets focused.
- Paste in your lecturer's learning objectives at the top to steer the questions.
Things that trip people up with Word documents
Old .doc files are not supported. Save as .docx first.
Track-changes and comments are ignored; accept them first if they matter.
Text inside images is not read from Word files. Export to PDF if your notes are mostly screenshots.
Questions about word to study guide
Yes. Headings become topics, and the study guide follows your document's structure.
Download as Microsoft Word (.docx), or copy the text and paste it in directly.
Choose a quick review sheet, a comprehensive guide or an exam-prep guide. Length follows your material: a ten-page chapter gets a page or two, not padding.
