Reviewing your notes is passive. Testing yourself on them is not.
After a lecture, most students re-read their notes a couple of times and move on. The problem is that re-reading creates familiarity, not mastery. When the exam asks you to explain something without looking, that familiarity isn't enough.
The answer is to build a practice exam from your lecture notes and take it — answer questions from memory, get graded, and see exactly where the gaps are. Learnlo does that in 90 seconds from whatever notes you have.

Example — AI Exam Grading
Question
What is the difference between classical and operant conditioning? Give one example of each.
Student Answer
Classical conditioning pairs a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned one to create a conditioned response, like Pavlov's dogs. Operant conditioning uses rewards and punishments to shape behaviour.
AI Grading Feedback
7.5 / 10Good foundation. Pavlov's dogs is a correct example of classical conditioning. For operant conditioning, your example is conceptual rather than specific — strengthen it with a concrete example such as a rat pressing a lever for food (positive reinforcement) or a student studying harder to avoid a failing grade (negative reinforcement).
Frequently Asked Questions
What format do my lecture notes need to be in?
Any format works: typed text, a PDF of slides, a photo of handwritten notes, a DOCX file, a copy-pasted transcript, or even a raw audio recording of the lecture.
Can I upload a Zoom or Teams recording transcript?
Yes. Paste the transcript as text or upload the audio file directly. Learnlo uses Whisper for accurate transcription of lecture audio, then generates the exam from the content.
Are the questions drawn from my specific lecture or are they generic?
All questions are generated exclusively from your uploaded content. Learnlo does not supplement with external knowledge — the exam reflects exactly what was in your notes.
Can it handle incomplete or messy lecture notes?
Yes. Learnlo handles abbreviated, bullet-point, and non-linear notes. It focuses on extracting the key conceptual claims rather than requiring polished writing.
What happens after I see my weak concepts?
Plus and Pro users get adaptive follow-up exams that specifically target the concepts they scored lowest on — so your second exam focuses on gaps, not content you already know.
Can I generate a study guide and flashcards from the same lecture notes?
Yes. Every pack includes the practice exam plus a summary, notes, flashcards, multiple-choice quiz, mind map, podcast, and slideshow — all from the same upload.
How long are the exams?
Typically 8–12 written-answer questions calibrated to the depth and length of your lecture material. Enough to test all key concepts without taking more than 15–20 minutes.
