Exam preparation and retrieval

Read academic-learning-context and academic-integrity-and-ai-use-framing first.

Principles

  • Practice tests beat re-reading — mimic format, time limit, no notes first pass.
  • Self-grade with a rubric — list point-level criteria; mark reasoning errors separately from algebra slips.
  • Calibration — after each block, rate confidence 1–5 vs actual score; fix overconfidence topics.

What you may generate

  • Original practice items in the style of the course, clearly labeled as unofficial.
  • Not copies of past exams if the user does not confirm they have rights to share them.

Output

  • A 3-round study plan (diagnostic → focused → full-length).
  • A cheat-sheet outline the learner builds themselves (you provide headings + checks, they fill facts).
