# How to study for an exam with AI

An exam is next week and rereading notes is not showing what you remember. Turn course materials into a small practice set, then spend study time on the answers you miss.

## Before you study for an exam

Can I upload a whole textbook?

Check your right to upload it and your school policy; your own notes and permitted course handouts may be enough.

What if a practice answer conflicts with class notes?

Use the course source and ask the teacher about the conflict before memorizing it.

How do I know I understand the topic?

Explain a process from memory and solve a new example, rather than only recognizing a card.
