Direct answer
A strong exam workflow diagnoses weak areas, targets practice, explains mistakes, and makes the next revision block narrower.
Question volume is not the whole strategy
Doctors often collect more question banks when what they need is tighter feedback. A useful exam product should identify weak domains, explain why an answer failed, and make the next session narrower.
What Exam Guru should optimise
Exam Guru should optimise the revision loop: diagnose, practise, explain, repeat. The product should make progress visible without pretending that AI confidence is the same as exam readiness.
Common questions
Why are feedback loops important for EM exam prep?
Feedback loops turn practice into targeted improvement by showing which domains are weak, why answers fail, and what to practise next.
What should Exam Guru optimise?
Exam Guru should optimise the revision loop: diagnose, practise, explain, repeat, and track whether weak areas are improving.
