Learns your college's exam style from its own past papers

Turn a lecture PDF into questions that look like your actual exam.

Upload a lecture and it is read, OCR'd, broken into concepts and turned into flashcards, clinical cases and single-best-answer MCQs. Upload a past paper and the case ratio, stem length, difficulty mix and distractor style are measured — then every generated question is held to them.

Real document intelligence

Native text extraction with column reflow, page rendering and Tesseract OCR for scans. Low-confidence pages are flagged, and your corrections become the canonical source — chunks and embeddings are rebuilt from them.

Exam DNA, measured

Past papers are segmented question by question and measured: case-vs-direct ratio, skill mix, stem and vignette length, clinical information density, distractor similarity, phrasing. Every figure carries a confidence based on sample size.

Questions that must earn publication

Each generated MCQ passes single-best-answer, grounding, clinical consistency, distractor, ambiguity, duplicate and style-match validators. Critical failures are regenerated with the failure fed back, not shipped with a warning.

Adaptive, not random

Question selection is driven by mastery, confidence calibration, response time and forgetting risk. Succeed and it gets harder; fail and it changes representation rather than repeating.

Mistakes get repaired

Every miss is classified — knowledge gap, confusion, misreading, overthinking, recall failure — and each cause gets a different repair path. Nothing is simply shown to you again.

Honest about what it knows

A profile built from 12 questions says so. Readiness is capped when coverage is thin. Nothing here claims to predict your real exam — it reproduces a measured style.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload

    Lecture PDFs and past papers. Each file is classified automatically.

  2. 2

    Understand

    Text extraction, OCR where needed, chunking, embedding, concept extraction.

  3. 3

    Measure

    Past papers are segmented and their style measured into an Exam DNA profile.

  4. 4

    Practise

    Questions are planned from a blueprint, validated, and adapted to your weaknesses.
