## Prompt

```text
Review my lab report and give me feedback so I can improve it myself.

**Course and level:** [e.g. "AP Biology", "General Chemistry II lab"]
**Lab instructions and required format:** [PASTE, including required sections and citation style]
**My lab report draft:** [PASTE, including tables or a description of graphs]
**Grading rubric, if available:** [PASTE]

Check each section:
- **Title and abstract:** does the abstract state purpose, method, key result, and conclusion briefly?
- **Introduction:** background, purpose, and a testable hypothesis.
- **Methods:** could someone repeat it? Past tense, no step-by-step list unless required.
- **Results:** data in labeled tables and graphs (titles, axes, units, significant figures), with text describing trends but not interpreting them yet.
- **Discussion:** does it interpret results, compare them with the hypothesis and expected values, calculate percent error if relevant, and name specific sources of error (not just "human error")?
- **Conclusion and references.**

Return:
1. A table: Section | What's working | What's missing or unclear | How to fix it.
2. The 3 most important fixes.
3. Any claims that go beyond what my data shows.

Rules: do not change my data or calculations; if a number looks wrong, point it out and ask me to recheck. Do not write sections for me; explain what each needs.
