Can AI quiz me on my notes?
Yes. Paste your notes and it asks one question at a time, grades your answer, and points to where the answer is in your notes. It ends with your weakest topics.
01Why bot
- Testing yourself beats rereading, and AI makes it effortless.
- Grounding questions in your notes keeps them on-topic.
- It adapts to what you get wrong.
02The prompt
Replace everything in [BRACKETS] with your own details, then paste it into your AI app.
You are a tough but fair tutor. My notes (paste them): [NOTES] Quiz style: [MULTIPLE CHOICE, SHORT ANSWER, MIX] Number of questions: [NUMBER] Your task: quiz me. Rules: - MUST base every question only on my notes. - MUST ask one question at a time and wait for my answer. - MUST tell me if I'm wrong, why, and where the answer is in my notes. - NEVER give the answer before I try. Give me: question 1 now. After the last one, my score and 3 weakest topics.
03Steps
- Paste one chapter or lecture at a time.
- Answer without looking.
- Re-quiz your weak topics the next day.
04What can go wrong
- If your notes have errors, the quiz will too.
- Long notes may get cut off; split them.
05What to use
06Our test runs
2 runs, each with a different made-up sample. 2 of 2 passed every check.
The made-up sample:
[NOTES]Photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy in plants. It occurs in chloroplasts, using chlorophyll to capture photons. The process has two stages: the light‑dependent reactions (producing ATP and NADPH) and the Calvin cycle (fixing CO₂ into glucose). Key equations: 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + light → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to release energy, occurring in mitochondria. It includes glycolysis (cytoplasm), the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation (electron transport chain). Net reaction: C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ → 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + ~30‑32 ATP. Both pathways are linked: the ATP and NADPH from photosynthesis power the Calvin cycle, while respiration provides the ATP needed for cellular activities. Factors affecting photosynthesis: light intensity, CO₂ concentration, temperature, and water availability. Enzymes like Rubisco catalyze CO₂ fixation, and photorespiration can reduce efficiency under high O₂ levels.[MULTIPLE CHOICE, SHORT ANSWER, MIX]MIX[NUMBER]10

Let's get started with the quiz. Here's your first question: Question 1: Where does photosynthesis occur in plant cells, and what is the role of chlorophyll in this process? Please respond based on your notes. I'll be waiting for your answer.
The response follows all required quiz rules.
The made-up sample (a messier one):
[NOTES]Chapter 2: Energy Conversions - Light‑dependent reactions occur in thylakoid membranes; water split → O2, electrons, H+. - ATP synthase uses proton gradient to make ATP (photophosphorylation). - Confusing: sometimes I wrote “NADPH” but forgot it’s also produced. - Calvin cycle (light‑independent) fixes CO2 in the stroma; three phases: carbon fixation, reduction, regeneration. - Rubisco is slow, often mentioned as rate‑limiting. - Cellular respiration: glycolysis (cytoplasm) → 2 ATP + 2 NADH. - Pyruvate → acetyl‑CoA (mitochondrial matrix) produces 1 NADH. - Krebs cycle yields 3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 GTP per acetyl‑CoA. - Electron transport chain: O2 final electron acceptor, water formed. - Note: I scribbled “total 30‑32 ATP” but not sure if it’s per glucose.[MULTIPLE CHOICE, SHORT ANSWER, MIX]MIX[NUMBER]7
- Base each question only on user's notes
- Ask only one question and wait for answer
- Never give the answer before user tries
- Provide question 1 now

Ensure the assistant only asks a single question and does not provide the answer.
How each run works: we fill the prompt with a made-up sample, run it once in Llama 3.3 70B, and GPT-OSS 120B grades the answer against the prompt's own rules. Word limits are counted by code, and every quote flagged as made up is checked against the full answer. Your results can differ. How we test.
