Recognising a case name is not knowing the case. These questions ask what the court actually held and why, which is the thing a problem question turns on.

The notes you wrote while reading a case. Paste them straight in, and get asked what the ratio was rather than who the parties were.
The module documents your lecturer wrote, which encode which cases they think matter and which distinctions they intend to examine.
A judgment saved as a PDF reads cleanly, as does a statute. Upload the extract you were set rather than the whole report.

Oblique intent arises where a consequence was not the defendant purpose but was virtually certain to follow, and the defendant appreciated that. The jury is entitled to find intention on those facts rather than obliged to.

What two conditions must be satisfied before a jury may find oblique intent?
A defendant wanted only to frighten, but death was virtually certain and he knew it. Is direct intent established?
Why does it matter that the jury is entitled to find intention rather than obliged to?
It leaves the finding with the jury rather than converting foresight into intention as a matter of law, which is the distinction a problem question is usually built to test.
The four you missed come back on their own as a shorter round, and redrilling them spends no part of your allowance.

Not from a general model of your subject. Only from the document in front of it, which is what makes the questions match your module.
Questions you get wrong join a weak pile and return in the daily review. Mastery lapses after a fortnight, so nothing stays finished forever.
Only indirectly, and it is worth being clear about which half it helps with. A problem question rewards two separable things: knowing the law cold, and structuring an argument that applies it. This addresses the first and does nothing at all for the second. There is no essay marking, no feedback on structure, no model answer, and no way to submit a written argument for comment. What it does is make sure that when you sit down to write, you can actually state the test, name the authority, and give the exception without looking any of it up, which is the foundation a good problem answer is built on and the thing most students are shakiest on under time pressure. For structure and technique, your tutor feedback and past-paper practice remain the tools, and nothing here replaces them.
Only what you upload, and this is a genuine constraint rather than a modest one. It cannot look a case up, cannot check whether a decision still stands, and has no database of authorities behind it. Every question comes from the document you supplied, so if your case note omits the dissent, no question will ask about the dissent. That cuts both ways. The cost is that a gap in your notes becomes a silent gap in your revision, which a commercial question bank written against a syllabus would have caught. The benefit is that nothing drifts onto a jurisdiction you are not studying or a doctrine your module does not cover, which is a real failure mode when you ask a general chatbot about law. Currency in particular is on you.
Your own case notes are usually the highest-yield thing you own, because they are already filtered to what you thought mattered and they are the only record of how your module framed a topic. Paste them in rather than looking for a file. Seminar handouts are the next best, since they encode which cases your lecturer intends to examine and which distinctions they think are live. Judgments and statute extracts saved as PDFs read cleanly and work well when you want questions on the actual words rather than on your summary of them. What works least well is a scanned page from a library book, which carries no text layer at all, and a reading list, which is a list of things to read rather than the substance of any of them.
