Common questions asked by those that write the material for the revision packages and distribute an Athena based software product.

Can I distribute a 'trial' version of my exam for download?

Sure, a trial exam - thus requiring no serial - must have less than 20 questions though

What if I need to make a change to my exam material?

No problem, Athena allows you to specify whether you're changes are major - requiring a new serial for the end user - or minor - meaning the end user does not require a new serial

Can the software deal with missing words questions?

Not at present. We do plan to implement this in the future though. To get it up the list of priorities, let us know your interest via suggestions@examsoftware.co.uk

Can I limit the number of times a user runs the software in exam mode?

No. There are currently no plans to implement this functionality, if this is something you feel strongly about, drop an email to suggestions@examsoftware.co.uk

Does the end user need to install anything?

Exam packages built and maintained by us use a standalone installer which includes all the relevant files, thus freeing the customer from installing any other software.
