Rethinking Revision
Revision in 2024 can be more time efficient while producing better results than you've ever seen before.
You can use AI to create mark-scheme orientated revision documents for you, based on your modules lecture slides, readings and past paper questions. Our team has developed a free, proven, method that allows you to extract the upmost out of your learning.
This will enable you to learn in a day what you would've usually learned in a week. On top of the time efficiency, what truly sets our method apart is the ways in which you can train the AI to cater your revision towards the underlying legal issues and the First class (grade A) segment of UK Universities marking criteria.
Read below on how our method will make you achieve a first class in your law degree:
AI PDF processing
In the example here, the relevant book chapter of the students coursebook and the lecture slides have been uploaded into Claude AI..
Method
Firstly, divide your Module into a few thematic sections (overarching course topics).
In your Law module you will have a coursebook. Create a pdf of the coursebook chapter relevant to the subject you’re studying. You will also have a PowerPoint slides, an outline or Handout for the subject you’re studying, typically used by your professor for the teaching of the class. Turn these slides into a pdf too.
Now, upload the PDF book chapter and the slides for the subject into an AI Large language model that can process PDF documents. The author of this document recommends Claude AI by Anthropic. The free versions work fine, but the premium version which costs £18/month is recommended for optimal results.
Create a prompt for the AI, tasking it to create you a comprehensive revision sheet. Example prompt:
Free example prompt:
“ Dear AI, to the best of your ability, create an exhaustive,
detailed revision document following the structure of the first few (amount of) attached
documents (your handouts or lecture slides). Key concepts should be explained
in detail using case summaries and details of relevant cases, mention relevant
statute and their application, and relevant theories and views from literature
should also be explained in detail. Use the content of all the attached
Documents for this where appropriate. Maintain excellent clarity of expression
throughout the Document you create. Explore the overarching issues and tensions
of the subjects discussed in detail. Write proper sentences, not bullet points,
unless where information can be presented in bullet points for convenience.”
Using this example prompt, the AI will use the relevant documents provided to create a
detailed revision sheet for you. Creating this would’ve normally taken you hours if not days
dependent on the complexity of the subject you’re studying.
Remember where targeting a first class in Law: Simply revising with the Revision sheet
created by the AI is not sufficient to explore the overarching legal issues, tensions & to go
above and beyond the Law to show a comprehensive understanding.
The mark scheme for Law assessments asks us to demonstrate excellent insights into
theoretical issues, and show evidence of a wider reading, combined with excellent clarity of
expression and comprehension.

To break into the first-class bracket, we use a second prompt following the initial prompt.
