This system will have the ability to process different paper sets by default. It takes all the tedious work and makes the manual work quick and effective. The software is very useful for small and medium sized institutions. The software will use the database to compile a questionnaire where the database can contain thousands of queries. The software will generate random paper in such way that the question does not repeat itself. Key Words: SQL, Questionnaire, paper, generator, exam, automatic. 1. INTRODUCTION In a practical scenario, generating a question paper is very time consuming and it makes all the teachers tired of doing the same tasks over and over again. This project removes these issues and difficulties. In this project, we have used a system in which random questions will be selected from the database to generate the question paper. Using a randomization algorithm, questions are selected based on course, semester, subject, marks. The questionnaire is produced according to the above pattern by the administrator to avoid time-consuming activities, and also by the students to practice for their exams. 2. LITERATURE SURVEY Because of a growing field of education, examinations and the preparation of appropriate question papers seems daunting, inefficient, time-consuming, and unnecessary for teachers. Therefore, various applications, software, and databases have come up to tackle the situation. We have looked into those applications in advance, which include the following. Swapnil Ghagare [1] who worked on a system that uses shuffling algorithm, it randomizes the questions generated from the database. The algorithm applied by them is quite straightforward and also extremely easy to understand. The implementation of this algorithm can be easily performed in other systems as well. Mrunal Fatangare [2] worked on a question paper generator, which provides a solution to choose from different challenging constraints and make it easy for the user to generate them within a very short amount of time. It contains various modules which enables the system to affect all the systems quickly. The modules like admin module, user module, and question entry and question management makes it an easy task. Noor Hasimah Ibrahim Teo [3] who also worked on a system in which text matching and question sorting was done by the system itself but one of the major drawbacks of this system was that only limited questions that could be added into the system. Suraj Kamya [4] their paper proposed a system based on fuzzy logic in which all constraints were classified based upon the algorithm so that the system can be easily accustomed with them. Vijay Krishnan Purohit [5], their proposed system is based on Bloom’s Taxonomy. It was an adaptive system however the data is entered is assumed to be completely error-free which has the possibility to affect the overall accuracy of the system. 3. PROPOSED SYSTEM Conventional exam paper generation systems followed by institutes have many flaws such as repeated questions in the paper and time requirements. To overcome them we are proposing a new system. Automatic Question Paper Generator is a software which is beneficial to colleges, publishers, and test paper setters who want to possess an enormous database of questions and generate test papers frequently with ease. It mainly deals with the sorting, gathering and administration of an outsized amount of questions on different levels of toughness from scientific and also non-scientific subjects associated with various classes. There are two modules in this software: A. Admin Module B. User Module
