## The prompt

```text
I'm studying for [EXAM OR COURSE, e.g. real estate license exam] and my test is on [TEST DATE, e.g. March 3]. My background: [WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW]. Build the learning overview around what's most likely to be tested, starting with the basics I need before the harder topics. In each section, explain things in plain English with one real-world example from [YOUR FIELD OR LIFE]. Point out the common mistakes people make with this material. Make the final quiz harder than the section quizzes so I know whether I'm ready.
