I want to write exams where the questions and answers are randomized, and mcexam lets me do almost everything I want. However, I would also like each question to be picked randomly from a group of questions. For instance, I may want one question on the exam about the product rule, so from a group of 5 questions, one of them is randomly selected to be on the exam. I'm currently using pgfmath and I thought it was working great, but then I realized that sometimes it takes bits and parts of the questions and pieces them together.

In the code there are two questions to be picked from: "Which is not a fruit?" and "What color is an emerald?" What's happening is the output will have "Which is not a fruit?" but then the answer choices are the ones for "What color is an emerald?" or vice versa. Why is this happening and is there something I can do to fix this? I am not overly familiar with latex. Thanks!
