Qwen2.5-3B-Egyptian-MCQ

🇪🇬 Egyptian Ministry English MCQ Generator

A fine-tuned Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct model specialized in generating English multiple-choice questions that closely follow the style of the Egyptian Ministry of Education (General Secondary Stage). The model was instruction-tuned using LoRA (PEFT) on a synthetic dataset designed to teach the model the structure, difficulty, and writing style of official Egyptian English examinations.

Training Dataset

The model was trained on a synthetic instruction dataset specifically designed for Egyptian Ministry English examinations.

Dataset Statistics

The dataset contains instruction-response conversations covering:

• Grammar
• Vocabulary
• Ministry examination style
• Curriculum units
• Grammar focus
• Topic-based generation
• JSON formatting Instead of memorizing questions, the model learns how official ministry questions are structured.

---

Output Format

The model always returns structured JSON. Example:

{
  "questions": [
    {
      "statement": "...",
      "correct_answer": "...",
      "plausible_distractors": [
        "...",
        "...",
        "..."
      ],
      "explanation": "..."
    }
  ]
}

How to Use

Option 1 — Transformers

Install the required libraries:

pip install transformers torch

Load the model:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
MODEL_ID = "tokhey/Qwen2.5-3B-Egyptian-MCQ"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL_ID)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_ID,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto",
)

Prepare the conversation:

messages = [
    {
        "role": "system",
        "content": SYSTEM_PROMPT
    },
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": USER_PROMPT
    }
]

Apply the chat template:

text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
)

Generate:

inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(
    **inputs,
    max_new_tokens=1200,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
)

response = tokenizer.decode(
    outputs[0][inputs.input_ids.shape[1]:],
    skip_special_tokens=True,
)

print(response)

---

Option 2 — vLLM (Recommended)

Start the server:

python -m vllm.entrypoints.openai.api_server \
    --model tokhey/Qwen2.5-3B-Egyptian-MCQ

Or use Python:

from vllm import LLM
from vllm import SamplingParams

llm = LLM(
    model="tokhey/Qwen2.5-3B-Egyptian-MCQ"
)

sampling_params = SamplingParams(
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
    max_tokens=1200,
)

Generate:

outputs = llm.generate(
    text ,
    sampling_params,
)

print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
