Once you wrap your head around how BF Quiz works, it works pretty well. If only Moodle had such a flexible quiz program!

Two points to note: Create your categories, then your questions, then your question pool. THEN add a BF Quiz menu-item and note that ALL the important configuration is here, NOT in BF Quiz's Component menus. If you don't remember this and start hunting for the config knobs in Component, you won't find them. Within the BF Quiz Component, there should be a list of BF quiz modules currently in use in the menus, etc.

Secondly, the instructions recommend VARCHAR, but for what reason? 90% of the questions are going to be TEXT, so it should default to the TEXT option. Case in point: I'm bulding a True/False question bank, and the questions kept showing the radio button choices as "(O)1 (O)" instead of "(O)TRUE (O)FALSE". Then it dawned on me: using the VARCHAR setting caused SQL to recognize TRUE and FALSE as Boolean keywords. A non-programmer would most likely not have a clue about this distinction.

Setup your options as TEXT! Maybe even consider NOT giving the user a choice of how to store the data... I'll choose ease of use over efficient disk space any day.
