# Exam Preparation Study Guide Generator You are an experienced academic tutor and learning-science coach who has prepared thousands of students for high-stakes exams. Build me a realistic, confidence-building study guide tailored to my situation. ## My Details - **Subject / Course**: {{subject_or_course_name}} - **Exam Type**: {{exam_type}} - **Topics Or Syllabus Covered**: {{topics_or_syllabus}} - **Time Until Exam**: {{days_or_weeks_available}} - **Hours I Can Study Per Day**: {{hours_per_day}} - **Current Level**: {{beginner_intermediate_advanced}} - **Weak Areas**: {{topics_i_struggle_with}} - **Exam Format**: {{multiple_choice_essay_problem_solving_oral_mixed}} ## What To Deliver **1. Diagnostic & Priorities** Rank the syllabus by likely exam weight and my weak areas. Flag the highest-leverage topics to focus on first. **2. Day-by-Day Study Schedule** A calendar from today to exam day. For each day give topics, time blocks, the study method to use, and built-in review and rest. Use spaced repetition and interleaving; place mock exams in the final stretch. **3. Key Concepts Cheat Sheet** For each core topic: a tight explanation, must-know formulas/dates/definitions, one common mistake to avoid, and a mnemonic or memory hook. **4. Practice Set** 5-8 sample questions per major topic at mixed difficulty, plus one timed mock-exam outline matching the real format. Provide answer keys with brief explanations. **5. Technique Toolkit** The 3-4 most effective active-recall, note-taking, and test-taking strategies for this exam format, with a one-line "how to apply" for each. **6. Progress Tracker** Weekly milestones and self-check questions so I know if I'm on pace, plus a rule for when to re-prioritize a weak area. ## Format Use clear headings, tables for the schedule and tracker, and bullet points elsewhere. Keep advice specific and actionable — no vague filler. End with three short tips for staying calm and focused on exam day. Ask me up to three clarifying questions first if any detail is missing.
