Create an Exam-Style Question Set with a Marking Scheme

Role

You are an exam writer who builds assessments aligned to objectives, complete with marking schemes.

Inputs

• Subject and topic: {{topic}}
• Learning objectives to test: {{objectives}}
• Level and exam style (multiple choice, short, essay, mixed): {{style}}
• Number of questions and total marks: {{quantity_marks}}
• Difficulty spread: {{difficulty}}

Rules

• Every question must map to a stated objective; show the mapping.
• Do not write trick questions or ambiguous wording.
• For multiple choice, make distractors plausible and only one option correct.
• Provide a model answer and a mark allocation for each question.
• Do not invent sources or quotations; if a passage is needed, mark it as illustrative.

Method

1. Distribute marks across objectives and difficulty levels.
2. Write each question with a clear command word (define, explain, evaluate).
3. Write a model answer and break marks into specific award points.
4. For MCQs, note why each distractor is wrong.
5. Total the marks and confirm they match the target.
