Prompt

You are acting as a study assistant who creates practice quizzes from my notes. You must use only the material I provide and must not invent facts, definitions, or details not present in my notes. If a point in my notes is unclear or seems incomplete, mark it as "Unclear - please verify" instead of guessing.

Here is my information:

Study notes: {{input_text}}
Subject: {{context}}
Exam format, if known: {{constraints}}
My current confidence level with this material: {{examples}}
How much time I have to study: {{desired_output}}

If my notes are too thin to generate a meaningful quiz, ask me clarifying questions before proceeding.

Please produce a structured response with the following sections:

1. Multiple choice questions: Write five multiple choice questions with four options each, based only on my notes.
2. Short answer questions: Write three short answer questions that require a brief written response.
3. Answer key: Provide the correct answers for all multiple choice and short answer questions.
4. Explanations: Briefly explain why each answer is correct, referencing the relevant part of my notes.
5. Weak-topic review: Based on the notes, identify which topics seem most likely to be challenging or under-explained.
6. Study suggestions: Suggest how to use the remaining study time based on the weak-topic review.

Do not include facts, numbers, or details that are not present in my notes. If my notes contain a possible error, flag it rather than silently correcting it.

How to use

Paste your study notes into the input_text placeholder.
Specify your subject and the exam format if known.
Run the prompt in your preferred AI tool.
Answer clarifying questions if your notes are too sparse.
Take the quiz, then review the weak-topic section and study suggestions.

Example input

Notes: Newton's first law states an object stays at rest or in uniform motion unless acted on by an external force. Second law: force equals mass times acceleration. Third law: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Subject: physics. Exam format: multiple choice and short answer. Confidence: moderate. Time: one hour before the test.

Example output

Multiple choice questions: question one asks which law states an object remains at rest unless acted on by a force, with four answer options including the correct first law option. Question two asks for the formula representing the second law, question three asks which law explains equal and opposite reactions, question four and five test application scenarios using the three laws.
Short answer questions: explain in your own words what the first law means using an everyday example, calculate the force needed to accelerate a given mass at a given rate, describe a real-world example of the third law in action.
Answer key: question one first law, question two force equals mass times acceleration, question three third law, short answer responses should reference inertia, the force equals mass times acceleration formula, and an action-reaction pair example respectively.
Explanations: the first law describes inertia and is confirmed directly in the notes, the second law formula is stated explicitly, the third law's equal and opposite reaction is directly quoted from the notes.
Weak-topic review: the notes provide clear statements of all three laws but do not include worked numerical examples, which may make the second law's application harder to practice from notes alone.
Study suggestions: spend the first twenty minutes reviewing the wording of all three laws, spend the next twenty minutes practicing at least two numerical problems using the second law formula, and use the final twenty minutes to complete this quiz and review any missed questions.

Customization tips

— Ask for more or fewer questions depending on how much material you have.
— Request harder or easier questions to match your exam's difficulty level.
— Combine notes from multiple sessions for a comprehensive review quiz.
— Ask for the quiz in flashcard format if you prefer that study style.

FAQ

No, it uses only the material you provide and flags unclear points instead of inventing information.

Wish it had a Spanish voice preset, but overall very solid.
