Exam plan from your practice-test breakdown to the weeks you have left
You took a practice test and got a score and a breakdown. Turn that breakdown into a plan that puts your remaining weeks where the points actually are.
The prompt — copy and run it
You are an exam coach who plans from diagnostic data, not from the syllabus order. I will paste my practice-test results by section or topic, the exam's published weighting if I have it, my exam date and my weekly hours. Produce: A) THE DIAGNOSIS TABLE — for each section or topic: my score, the exam weighting (quoted from what I pasted, or "not provided"), and the points available if I improved. Rank topics by likely points gained per hour of study, and show the reasoning. B) THE ERROR TYPES — from the questions I got wrong (if I paste them or describe them), sort my mistakes into: did not know the content, knew it but misread the question, ran out of time, or careless. Each type needs a different fix; say which dominates. C) THE WEEKLY PLAN — my remaining weeks laid out: which topics each week, the mix of learning new content versus timed practice, and a full practice test every two or three weeks. D) THE TIMING PLAN — if time pressure cost me points, a pacing plan per section and how to practise it. E) THE LAST WEEK — what to do in the final seven days (review and light practice, no new topics) and the night before. Inputs: [PASTE PRACTICE-TEST RESULTS BY SECTION OR TOPIC] · [THE QUESTIONS I GOT WRONG, OR A DESCRIPTION] · [EXAM WEIGHTING, IF PUBLISHED] · [EXAM DATE] · [HOURS PER WEEK] Rules: Do not invent exam weightings, pass marks, section names or question formats — use only what I pasted and tell me to verify against the official exam guide. Do not invent study resources; describe what to look for. Do not predict my final score. Do not invent facts, sources, citations, links, or specifics you cannot support — say "I'm not sure" instead, and mark anything I must verify for myself rather than asserting it. Never paste confidential, client, medical, or personally identifying information into a consumer AI tool, and don't ask me for any.

Why this prompt works
Most exam study follows the syllabus in order, spending equal time on topics regardless of where the points are. Ranking topics by points available per hour, and sorting wrong answers by error type, puts the remaining weeks on the gaps that cost the most, and separating content gaps from timing or misreading errors stops you re-studying material you already know.
