# Customizing questions

Last updated on October 16, 2026

You can access your custom questions by first clicking on the Questions tab in the left navigation menu, and then clicking on the Custom tab in the top right of the screen.

![On the Screen UI the questions tab is highlighted on the left with a number 1 next to it, and in the top right the "custom" tab is highlighted with a number 2 next to it.](https://coderpad.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/image-10-1024x405.png)

If you want to switch back to the list of 4,000+ questions that CoderPad makes available for your Screen assessment, simply click on the CoderPad tab in the top right of the page.

The "insights" tab is selected, and the stats include: - 1666 candidates have seen this question - 2 months ago this question was last seen by a candidate - 26 min average time to answer the question - 22% timed out candidates who didn't submit an answer before the question timer ran out. Below that it shows the average score, as well as a distribution of scoring.](https://coderpad.io/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/image-146.png)](https://coderpad.io/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/image-146.png)
