The rubric, applied line by line.
Seven out of Seven writes AP European History and AP World History practice questions, then grades every response against the College Board rubric or yours, quoting the sentence that earned each point.
Teacher accounts are by invitation, and students join through an email invite from their teacher. DBQ, LEQ, SAQ and MCQ, both courses, kept separate. 10 free credits to start, then pay as you go.
By 1517 the papacy governed not just souls but treasuries: indulgence revenue was rebuilding Saint Peter's, and papal courts heard appeals from every diocese in Latin Christendom. Between 1517 and 1600 the Reformation weakened papal authority to a great extent in northern Europe, where princes took over church lands and courts, but only partly in the south, where the papacy answered by reforming itself.
Luther's arguments moved through print faster than Rome could answer them, and Document 2, his 1520 address to the German nobility, tells princes that the pope is a bishop like any other whose decrees bind no conscience. Document 1 shows the papacy replying with condemnation rather than reform, which only widened the split.
Beyond the documents, the Peace of Augsburg in 1555 let each German prince choose his territory's faith, a settlement made with no papal signature at all.
Because Document 2 was printed for German readers already angry at Roman taxes, its picture of the pope as a mere bishop should be read as a political argument, not a neutral report. Even so, Rome did not simply lose. The Council of Trent kept the south, and by 1600 the papacy was smaller in reach but firmer in doctrine.
What a generated question looks like
Pick the type, rubric, unit, theme, reasoning process and difficulty. You get three candidate questions to choose from; a DBQ then comes back with a full document set of texts, a chart and images.
Evaluate the extent to which the Protestant Reformation weakened the political authority of the papacy in Europe from 1517 to 1600.
Document 1
Arise, O Lord, and judge your own cause. A wild boar has entered your vineyard. Forty-one errors of Martin Luther are here condemned, and any who hold, defend, or print them within sixty days fall under sentence.
Document 2
The Romanists have built three walls around themselves. First, that the spiritual power is above the temporal. Second, that only the pope may interpret Scripture. Third, that only the pope may call a council. Let the princes see that these walls are straw.
Document 3
Where a prince holds to the Augsburg Confession, his subjects shall not be disturbed in that religion; where he holds to the old religion, likewise. No estate shall compel another to its faith.

Three suggestions Teacher chooses
Every request comes back as three prompts. The teacher picks one, and only then are the documents written.
- Chosen. Evaluate the extent to which the Protestant Reformation weakened the political authority of the papacy in Europe from 1517 to 1600.
- Evaluate the extent to which the printing press caused religious change in Europe from 1450 to 1600.
- Evaluate the extent to which political motives drove the spread of Protestantism in the Holy Roman Empire from 1517 to 1555.
Scored against the real point structure
The built-in rubrics are the College Board point structures. Every submission is scored one row at a time, with the criterion met or missed named for each point and the evidence quoted from the response. Or paste your own rubric, and the grader applies it exactly as written.
| Type | Full name | Points | Rows |
|---|---|---|---|
| DBQ | Document-Based Question | 7 | Thesis 1 · Contextualization 1 · Evidence 3 (documents 2, outside evidence 1) · Analysis and reasoning 2 (sourcing 1, complexity 1) |
| LEQ | Long Essay Question | 6 | Thesis 1 · Contextualization 1 · Evidence 2 · Analysis and reasoning 2 |
| SAQ | Short-Answer Question | 3 | Parts A, B and C, one point each, scored independently |
| MCQ | Multiple-Choice Question | 1 each | Stimulus sets; correct or incorrect, no partial credit |
Two courses, never mixed
A class is fixed to one course when it is created. Units, themes and time periods come from the College Board framework for that course, and AP Euro content never turns up in a WHAP item unless you ask for it.
AP European History c. 1450 to the present
AP World History: Modern c. 1200 to the present
How a class runs
- Create a class fixed to one course.
AP European History or AP World History: Modern. Everything generated for that class stays inside that framework.
- Invite students by email.
Each student gets a link that creates their account and puts them in the class. There is no public student signup and no class code to leak.
- Choose one of three suggestions, then assign.
Every request comes back as three candidate questions. Pick one and the documents, stimulus or answer options are written for it. Assign when you are happy with it, or ask for three more.
- Students submit once and read the graded rows.
Essays are written in the browser and graded within about a minute. MCQ sets are scored on the spot.
- Regrade, or grade to a stricter rubric.
Open any submission and grade it again, or paste a rubric of your own and pick it when generating.
- Watch what it costs.
The admin page shows accounts and estimated API spend by purpose, so there are no surprises.
Pay for what you use.
Every teacher account starts with 10 free credits. Credits are spent only on the AI work: 1 for three question suggestions, 3 to write a DBQ's seven documents, 1 to grade one essay or SAQ. Multiple-choice is scored free. The price sits on every button before you click, and nothing is charged if a call fails.
