    Thanks for telling us about your plans. However, the site is designed for questions and answers rather than personal announcements. Perhaps Facebook would be a better place for this? – cfr Jun 18 '17 at 02:49

    Take a look on CTAN. There are lots of packages and documentclasses for exams: https://ctan.org/topic/exam – Henri Menke Jun 18 '17 at 03:02

    If you have an actual question rather than looking for general guidance, please add a minimal working example (MWE) to your question. For now I'm voting to close as "too broad". Please ping me once you updated the question so I can retract the close vote or vote to reopen. – Henri Menke Jun 18 '17 at 03:02
  • @HenriMenke I don't think it is a 'broad' question. The question is how to align the choices across different MCQs. – Troy Jun 18 '17 at 03:18

You can use, for example, the package tasks.

MWE:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tasks}

\NewTasks[style=enumerate,counter-format=tsk[A].,label-width=3ex]{choice}[\item](4)

\begin{document}

\begin{enumerate}
  \item What is the sum of the sides of a polygon called?
  \begin{choice}
    \item Leg
    \item Perimeter
    \item Area
    \item Volume
  \end{choice}
  \item What is the product of $-2$ and $3$?
  \begin{choice}
    \item $-6$
    \item $6$
    \item $5$
    \item $-5$
  \end{choice}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

Output:
