# How do I regrade a Multiple Answers quiz question?

If you accidentally published a quiz with an existing multiple answers question that needs to be corrected, you can use quiz regrade to edit the question and update student grades. Learn more about [quiz regrade options](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/What-options-can-I-use-to-regrade-a-quiz-in-a-course/ta-p/1093).

**Notes**:

<div id="bkmrk-quiz-regrade-only-ap"><div>- Quiz regrade only applies to students who have already taken the quiz.
- Adding or removing a question as well as changing the point value for the multiple answer question does not trigger the quiz regrade feature.
- Adding or deleting answers from a multiple answers quiz question with submissions disables the option to regrade that question.
