Act as an assessment writer. Use only [STUDY NOTES] and these objectives [OBJECTIVES]. Create [NUMBER] atomic flashcards and a self-test with recall, explanation and application questions. Each card must test one idea; answers must cite the note heading or passage used. Do not add outside facts or repair gaps silently. Mark unsupported topics as missing. Separate answer key from questions and include common wrong answers only when supported by the notes. Ask questions if the exam format matters and is missing.
