How do I build a custom vocabulary test online?
Asked by ALM (67)

I have an excel spreadsheet of about 200 vocab words collected from reading/conversations during the past two months. I need a comprehensive way to test myself on these words and make sure that I don't forget them. I've been investigating ways to build my own custom vocabulary tests and take them online. I don't just want to test myself on the definition of the word, I also want to remember how the author used the word in context. I am willing to pay for software or an online-based service that will chart progress and allow me to share the test with others. It would also be great if the program had a built-in dictionary to look-up words. I imagine the tests in two parts: multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank. For example:
Define supercilious
A) Haughty
B) Silly
C) Happy.
Fitzgerald describes Tom Buchanan (pg 17)... "his jaw pointed forward in a _________ manner."
Answer: Supercilious
It seems simple, but almost all of the test-builting sites out there just help you make a word-puzzle and they don't allow you to save and manage the test for future use. If anyone has any ideas or favorite sites, please share them. I really appreciate the help.
