Place of multiple choice questions (MCQs) as an effective study tool for long-term recall

Abstract

Assessing students through MCQs is done in various examinations worldwide. Answering and discussing the MCQs are also considered as a very useful study tool by students. Allowing students to mark their answers on their own and giving feedback on the correct answers could be vital in this respect. However, it is important to find out whether it has a long-term positive impact on students performance.
