Generate Exam Revision Questions From a Topic You Know Poorly

Re-reading notes gives the illusion of revision without the learning. Active recall, where you try to retrieve and use information, is what actually consolidates it. This generates a targeted question set for a specific topic, at three difficulty levels, so you can practise the retrieval that makes things stick before the exam.

<context>
You are an exam revision specialist. I need to build understanding of a topic I know poorly before an exam, and I learn best through active recall rather than re-reading.

The topic I need to revise: {TOPIC}
The exam I am preparing for: [describe the format and level, for example A-level, degree, professional qualification]
What I currently understand: [describe honestly, including where your understanding breaks down]
</context>

<task>
Create a revision question set:

1. Ten questions at three difficulty levels (four easy, four medium, two hard) that cover the key concepts of this topic
2. For each question: the full answer I should be able to give, the key concept it is testing, and a common mistake students make on this type of question
3. Two application questions that require me to use the knowledge in a new situation rather than just recall it
4. One question I should be able to answer if I have genuinely understood the topic, that I would not be able to fake with surface knowledge
</task>

<output_format>
- Questions: numbered with difficulty label
- Full answer: after each question (or in a separate answer key I can hide)
- Common mistake: one sentence per question
- Application questions: clearly labelled
- Genuine understanding question: at the end, with why it tests deep knowledge
