What it extracts
- Year, level and paper, only where the paper states them.
- Each question's number, section and marks.
- The command word, such as explain, discuss or evaluate.
- The topics each question covers, with a quote copied from the paper as evidence.
How to use it well
- Add papers you already haveUse PDFs with selectable text. Download past papers from examinations.ie.
- Sort the heat mapView topics by most questions, most recent, highest average marks or A to Z.
- Check the extractionReview and correct any row the extraction got wrong. Question banks are only as good as the paper text.
- Practise the weak spotsTurn topics you have neglected into a practice paper or revision cards.
An honest limit
A topic that has not come up for years is not 'due', and one that comes up often is not guaranteed. Exam X-ray shows history only. Use it to understand the style of questions, not to skip topics.
