Anu Sawhney

Anu Sawhney is the editor of MojQuiz, where she oversees the editorial process behind the site's quiz question pools and the long-form pieces in the notebook and resources sections. She joined when the site was rebuilt in 2025 and leads the small in-house team that drafts, fact-checks, and revises every piece of content before it ships.

She holds an M.A. and a B.Ed. — a teacher's qualification that shapes a lot of how the site is edited. The editorial voice that recurs across the long-form pieces (concrete examples, plain language, citations by named researcher and year, no padding for word count) comes out of classroom habits: assume the reader is intelligent but doesn't yet know the topic, and write the page you wish you'd had when you were learning it for the first time.

Editorial focus

Anu's editorial work centres on three areas: how memory and recall actually work (the testing effect, spacing, retrieval practice, the Method of Loci), how to make general-knowledge learning a habit rather than a chore, and how to write quiz questions that are useful for learning rather than just for performing knowledge. That last one is the harder problem: a good quiz question isolates a single fact with a single defensible answer, three plausible distractors, and phrasing that doesn't depend on date interpretation or regional context. Most quiz questions on the internet fail at least one of those bars.

Editorial process

Every quiz question on MojQuiz goes through a four-step process before it reaches a live pool: a category-brief-driven draft (AI-assisted), a fact-verification pass against at least two independent sources, a phrasing review for ambiguity and distractor plausibility, and a final pool-level review for balance and duplication. Long-form articles run to a stricter bar — each piece is built from a working bibliography, and every empirical claim is tied to a named researcher and year. The full editorial standards, including how the team handles AI tooling and corrections, are documented on the editorial standards page.
