Study prompts for Grok

Help me solve this [subject] problem without giving me the answer: [paste problem]. Ask me what I think the first step is, and give the smallest possible hint only if I'm stuck. After each attempt, tell me whether I'm on track. Confirm the final answer only once I've worked it out.

I've attached a photo of a [subject] worksheet. Read out question [number] so I can check you've got it right, then explain the idea behind it using a simpler example of the same type. Let me try the real question myself afterwards.

I've attached a photo of a diagram from my [subject] textbook showing [what it shows]. Explain each labelled part in one line, describe the process in the right order as a numbered list, and then quiz me with two quick questions.

Turn these notes into flashcards for [subject]: [paste notes]. Write each card as 'Front: ... / Back: ...', keep the backs under 20 words, and make roughly a third of the cards ask why something happens rather than what it is.

I'll explain [concept] as if to a twelve-year-old. Point out every place where my explanation is wrong, hand-wavy or uses a term I didn't define, then give me a corrected version in the same simple style. My explanation: [your explanation]

Show me one fully worked example of [type of problem, e.g. solving simultaneous equations], explaining each step in a sentence. Then give me two similar problems with different numbers, and wait for my answers before you mark them.

Here is my attempt at proving [statement]: [paste proof]. Check each step. Tell me which steps are valid, where the logic has a gap or an unjustified assumption, and how to fix it, keeping my overall approach if it can work.

Write a practice test on [topic] for [level], in the style of [exam or course]: five short questions, three medium ones and one longer question worth more marks. Put the mark scheme at the end, after a clear divider, so I can try the test first.

Give me memory aids for [list of facts, terms or steps to memorise]: a mnemonic, a short story that links the items in order, and a vivid mental scene for the hardest two. Keep them a bit silly; silly sticks.

Here is a section from my [subject] reading: [paste text]. Instead of a summary, write the six questions this section answers, each followed by a two-sentence answer. Then tell me which question is most likely to come up in an exam and why.

I'm going to [situation, e.g. a pharmacy visit or a job interview] in [language], and my level is [level]. Script a short, realistic exchange I might have there, mark the phrases worth memorising, then play the other person so I can rehearse my side.

I keep getting [concept A] and [concept B] wrong. Give me eight short scenarios, one at a time, and for each ask me which of the two applies. After I answer, explain why in a sentence, and at the end tell me which kind of scenario still fools me.

My essay question is: [question]. Help me plan, not write. Suggest a thesis I could argue, three supporting points with the kind of evidence each needs, the strongest counter-argument, and an order for the paragraphs. Ask me which sources I already have.

Make a revision timetable from [start date] to [exam date]. Subjects and how confident I feel in each: [list]. I can study [hours] on weekdays and [hours] at weekends. Use spaced repetition, put harder subjects in my best hours, which are [time of day], and leave one free evening a week.

Here is an exam question and my answer: [question] / [my answer]. Mark it as a strict examiner for [level] would, out of [marks]. Explain what earned and lost marks, and list what a full-mark answer would include as bullet points rather than a model essay.

I'm lost in [topic] because I never properly understood the basics underneath it. Find my gap by asking three diagnostic questions, one at a time. Based on my answers, explain the missing foundation first and then come back to [topic].

Make a timeline of [period or event] for a [level] student: about twelve key dates, each with one line on what happened and one on why it mattered. Then point out two cause-and-effect links between events that exam questions often ask about.

Give me the strongest case for and against [statement] from [subject], three points each, with the kind of evidence a good student would cite. Then ask which side I find more convincing and push back on my choice.

Here's my working for a [physics or chemistry] problem: [paste working]. Check the units at every step, flag any step where they don't match, and do a rough order-of-magnitude estimate to tell me whether my final answer is even plausible.

I have [time] today to study [subject], and I tend to lose focus after [minutes] minutes. Plan the session in blocks with short breaks, starting with active recall of [topic], and end with a five-minute self-test. Keep the plan short enough to fit on a sticky note.
