Turn Your Slides and Old Exams Into a Claude Coach That Gets You Through Finals
Exam Cram Coach is a free, open-source Claude skill that teaches from your own course files, quizzes you with your real past-exam questions and builds your cheat sheet. How to install it, load your class, and run a 3-day cram plan
Exam Cram Coach is a free, open-source skill for Claude Code. You put your slides, notes, homework and past exams in one folder, and it turns them into a chapter-by-chapter course. Claude teaches each chapter in plain words and cites the exact file and page, quizzes you with the real questions from your homework and old exams, and keeps a list of everything you miss.
Here's what it does, how to set it up in about five minutes, and the limits you should know first.
What it does with your class
- Splits your course into chapters in a few seconds, even for a thousand pages of PDFs, slides and notes.
- Teaches each chapter with a source tag on every point: from your materials (with file and page), an AI extra, or an AI-made answer.
- Cuts the figures out of your lecture PDFs and shows them while it explains.
- "Quiz me" asks real homework and past-exam questions (past exams first), grades them and logs every miss.
- "Make a cheat sheet" writes cheatsheet.md from your chapter summaries, confusions and mistakes.
- "What should I do today?" splits the chapters left over the days until your exam, and keeps the last day for mistakes.
- Remembers where you stopped: in a new chat, say "continue my exam prep".
