What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for students

Creating effective Student Peer Mentoring surveys used to mean wrangling static forms and guessing what questions would dig deep. With an AI survey builder, the game changes: everything is conversational, contextual, and done for you in minutes. Instead of a generic list of questions, students join a chat-like experience—where every answer gets the attention it deserves.

So why does this matter for Student Peer Mentoring? We’ve all seen how traditional forms lead to low engagement and rushed answers. In fact, completion rates for traditional surveys hang around 45–50%, but AI-powered surveys jump to an impressive 70–80% completion rate, while cutting abandonment rates in half. That’s a massive difference—especially when every student’s voice matters. AI surveys also validate responses in real time, ensuring you’re not left with half-answered questions or contradictory feedback [2].

Here’s a side-by-side look at why AI survey generation leaves manual creation behind:

Why use AI for student surveys?

  • Response quality jumps thanks to contextual follow-ups and validation.

  • Data analysis is instant and actionable, so you spend time improving instead of sorting a spreadsheet.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

What sets Specific’s AI survey template apart is its real-time, expert-level follow-up questions. As students reply, the survey adapts instantly, clarifying or diving deeper where needed—just like a one-on-one chat with a researcher. This means richer, more contextual insights for peer mentoring programs.

Without smart follow-ups, responses can be confusing or too brief, forcing you to chase down clarification emails. Here’s how follow-ups can transform a conversation:

  • Student: “My mentor helped sometimes.”

  • AI follow-up: “Can you share a specific example of how your mentor helped you? Was there a time that made a big impact?”

  • Student: “The meetings weren’t useful.”

  • AI follow-up: “What would have made the meetings more helpful for you?”

If you skip follow-up questions, you end up with vague data and miss out on details essential for improving peer mentoring initiatives. Want to see this in action? Generate a survey and experience how AI-powered follow-ups work. They make the whole process feel like a genuine conversation—not another boring form. Learn more about automated follow-ups in our automatic AI follow-up questions feature.

Thanks to these follow-ups, you’re not just collecting answers—you’re having a real chat. It truly is a conversational survey.

Easy editing, like magic

Need to add, change, or remove a question? With Specific’s AI survey editor, editing your Student Peer Mentoring survey is as easy as chatting. Just type what you want changed, and the AI instantly updates your template with researcher-level expertise. No hunting for options or dealing with clunky form builders—edits happen in seconds, so you stay focused on what matters. The AI survey editor lets even non-experts produce professional surveys in no time.

Smart delivery: reach students where it counts

When it’s time to distribute your Student Peer Mentoring survey, you have two seamless options:

  • Sharable landing page surveys: Perfect for sending via email, student portals, or direct links in peer mentoring newsletters. Great for reaching groups or cohort-based mentoring programs.

  • In-product surveys: Ideal for collecting feedback while students are actually using your learning management system or wellness app. The survey appears as a chat widget—no need for students to open a separate page.

For many peer mentoring initiatives, sharable landing pages make it easy to reach diverse students, including those outside of core software platforms. But, if you’re running mentoring inside a school platform, in-product surveys let you catch feedback in the moment, so insights are fresh and relevant.
