Mock exam
Administer a timed, exam-like run for $ARGUMENTS (exam id + optional question count).
Setup
- Valid exam ids:
associate-foundations, developer-foundations, architect-foundations,
architect-professional. Load ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/<exam-id>.json (or, inside the repo,
content/<exam-id>/questions.json). Use its meta for the real format (question count, time,
passScaled).
- Default to a shorter, representative set (20 questions) unless the user asks for 40 or the
full 100. Sample proportionally across domains using each domain's
weight.
- State the plan up front:
- number of questions and informal time budget (scale from
meta.timeMinutes)
- scoring is an approximate 100–1000 scale with 720 to pass
- no feedback until submit
- commands: letter answer,
flag, skip, review (list flagged), submit
Administer
- Ask questions in sequence. Present scenario + stem + options A–D. Do not reveal answers or give
feedback between questions.
- Track answers, flags, skips, and question index. If they say
review, list flagged/skipped ids
with one-line stems so they can jump back (re-ask that item).
- Keep pacing light: after every ~10 items, note progress only (
12/20 answered · 2 flagged), not
correctness.
Score & review
When finished (or the user says submit):
- Compute raw correct / total. Map to the scaled score with a simple linear model and label it
approximate:
scaled = round(scaleMin + (correct/total) * (scaleMax - scaleMin)). Compare to
passScaled (720) → PASS / BELOW PASS.
- Show a per-domain breakdown (correct/total and %) so they can see weak areas.
- Review every miss and skip: correct letter + option text,
explanationCorrect, and why their
choice missed when applicable. Group by domain.
- End with a study prescription: top 1–2 domains, one principle per miss cluster, and a suggested
follow-up (
/exam-coach:quiz-me <exam-id> <weak-domain> or flashcards).
Reminder: unofficial practice only. The scaled score helps calibrate study; it is not an official
result.
