# How do I take a quiz in New Quizzes?

You can take a New Quizzes quiz on the Quizzes page in Canvas. Depending on how your instructor set up the quiz, questions may be shown all on one page or [one at a time](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Student-Guide/How-do-I-take-a-quiz-where-I-can-only-view-one-question-at-a/ta-p/292). If you are unable to finish a quiz, you may be able to resume it at a later time.

**Notes:**

<div id="bkmrk-if-the-quiz-you-are-"><div>- If the quiz you are accessing displays differently, your instructor may have used the Classic Quizzes tool to create the quiz. Functionality may differ between these quiz types. For help with taking a quiz, please see [How do I take a quiz?](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Student-Guide/How-do-I-take-a-quiz/ta-p/507)
- If enabled by your instructor, your quiz might require the use of the [Respondus LockDown Browser](https://web.respondus.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/QSG_CanvasNew_Student.pdf).

If you do not submit the quiz by the last available date of October 20 at 10:59 pm (as indicated in your local time zone), Canvas will automatically submit the quiz on the last available date. On October 20 at 11 pm, the quiz will not be available to you.
