You could use the Classlist Editor to assign each student to a "Section", say "A", "B", and "C". Then you could use the Instructor Tools to filter only students in "Section A" and assign one exam to them. And so on.

I (or actually someone else, on whose behalf I am asking) am planning on using this approach to assign different tests to two different groups of students in a 500-student course.
However, in the "Instructor Tools" page, there seems to be no way of selecting all displayed students. Does anybody see a way around this? (I'm willing and able to hack the source code to do this.)

Using command-A doesn't work (it selects all elements of the whole page, not the list). However shift-click will select a range and
command click will select a collection of students from the list. (this is on a mac -- translate the control keys for windows and unix)
Works for me.

Thanks! (I'd forgotten about shift-click.)
