Abstract of Project
This project will overcome the time consuming problem of
manual system. Apart from that in current system, checking the
answer sheets after taking test, waste the examiners time, so
this application do all these works in effective manner. The users
who don’t have high computing knowledge they also can use this
applications as it’s user-friendly and has a documentation. The
conclusion of this project will be that it saves a lot of time of
Examiner and will be more efficient and effective in conducting
and managing quizzes. Examiner will be able to have a proper
look at the data and it will become easy to get a summary out of
the quiz.
Objective of Project
Due to pandemic the educational institutes have shifted to online
platforms for conducting daily lectures and exams. There is a
need of a quick and easy to use Online MCQ Conducting Platform.
This Project will make it easy to conduct tests for ones who don’t
have a good technical experience. It is not easy to conduct test
on online software like Google Forms, Testmoz, etc. nowadays.
They are not easy to use and it takes a lot of time for the users
who have just started using it. So I have designed a MCQ
Platform which makes it easy for conducting and managing MCQ
Exams. It will include from taking a Quiz from examiner, making
it available for students in particular period of time, saving the
information of all participants, showing data statistically for have
a clear look at the picture, showing results to each participant,
etc. This application will work more effective than manual
systems and will save a lot of time.

Design Model
5| P a g e
ER Model Diagram
ER model stands for an Entity-Relationship model. It is a high-level data
model. This model is used to define the data elements and relationship for
a specified system. It develops a conceptual design for the database. It
also develops a very simple and easy to design view of data.

Use Case Diagram
In UML, use-case diagrams model the behavior of a system and help to
capture the requirements of the system. Use-case diagrams describe the
high-level functions and scope of a system. These diagrams also identify
the interactions between the system and its actors. UML diagrams can be
used as a way to visualize a project before it takes place or as
documentation for a project afterward. But the overall goal of UML
diagrams is to allow teams to visualize how a project is or will be working,
and they can be used in any field, not just software engineering.

Data Flow Diagram
The DFD level 0 gives the brief idea about the software system by
Specifying the general functions performed. It has both input and output
for main process.
The DFD level 1 describes in detail the main process, all its functions that
carried out and also the input provided with the output generated.
The DFD level 2 describe the process which is main in the level 1.
