PYQed: I built the exam tool my friend needed, with Gemma 4

Description and use

PYQed automatically transforms a syllabus and past exam papers into a topic‑wise question bank, enabling students to quickly identify key units, high‑mark questions, and repeats.

Problem

Students lack a systematic way to identify important topics, high‑mark questions, and repeated questions from past year papers.

Outcome

Users can quickly identify high‑value units, see which questions recur, and practice targeted topics without manual guessing.

Workflow

• Import syllabus PDF → Gemma 4 parses into subjects, units, topics
• Import PYQ PDFs → Gemma 4 extracts questions, numbers, marks, and types
• Code assigns each question to a topic, records marks, and counts repeats
• App displays units prioritized by average marks, shows repeat counts, and offers practice mode
• Users review extracted text beside original page before saving
• Exported JSON can be shared via WhatsApp for others to use

Evidence

Gemma 4 reads each page, extracts each question with its number, marks, and type, and you can review them beside the original page before saving.
