Turn Teacher Feedback Into a Mistake Log With One Fix per Category

Paste the feedback on a piece of graded work and get a categorised mistake log. Each category has one small fix you can check yourself, and anything the feedback does not explain is flagged for your teacher.

Make it yours

Fill in the inputs. Your prompt updates as you type.

Before you paste

Paste the feedback text (or attach a clear photo of it) in the chat, and remove your name, school and any private details first.

Your prompt

Turn my teacher's feedback on graded work into a mistake log. Subject and task: {{subject_and_task}}. Feedback and any marks, copied exactly: {{teacher_feedback}}. What I already think went wrong, if anything: {{my_own_view}}.
Use only the feedback text. Do not guess the teacher's reasons. If something is not explained, label it "unclear" and give me a question to ask my teacher. Do not redo or rewrite my work.
Step 1: list each separate mistake or comment, quoting the feedback. Step 2: sort them into categories drawn from the feedback itself (for example concept misunderstood, method applied wrongly, question misread, evidence missing, structure, careless slip, unclear), and say why each item fits. Step 3: return a table [category, quoted items, count, one fix]. Each fix is one small action I can do and check, such as redoing one question from memory a week later. Step 4: name the most frequent category, and say if there are too few items to call it a pattern.
Remind me that feedback can be incomplete, and that my teacher's explanation comes first.

3 inputs still blank. Empty inputs stay as placeholders when copied.

Example result

Example inputs: Physics practical report; feedback: "Good method. Units missing in Q2 and Q5. Q4 used the wrong area formula. Conclusion did not link back to the aim." Illustrative example; not tested on the listed platform. | Careless slip | "Units missing in Q2 and Q5" | 2 | Add a units check line to every answer in the next set. | | Method applied wrongly | "Q4 used the wrong area formula" | 1 | Redo Q4 from memory next week, then check the formula against your notes. | | Structure | "Conclusion did not link back to the aim" | 1 | Write one sentence naming the aim, then answer it. | Most frequent: careless slip, but with four items this is too few to call a pattern.

Illustrative example; not tested on the listed platform. Example inputs are stated in the preview. No platform test or measured performance is claimed.
