# Adding Item Bank Questions to Aware Tests

When creating tests in Aware, teachers can [use item banks](/v1/docs/item-and-test-banks) for pre-made test questions or sections.

## **Adding From an Item Bank**

To add an item from an item bank, click the **Add** icon to add a new question to the test. Choose a specific item type from the drop-down menu or click **Search Item Bank**.

Select either individual **Questions** or **Resources** that include multiple questions.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Use the **Select All Standards** option if you plan to search for complete unit tests or released STAAR assessments.

Questions are added to the test in the order they are selected. To rearrange questions, click the arrows attached to each question. To delete a question, select the **Trash Can** icon.

Write a short message describing the error. Your message will create a ticket for Eduphoria’s support team. If the question is a **TEKS Resource System** or **TEKSbank** item, it will also be sent to **Region 10**’s support ticketing system.
