Prompt:
I am teaching a 11th grade U.S. History class and its time to create the final exam for the 1st semester. So far we have learned about the era from the first European colonies through the start of the civil war. Major themes were the Revolutionary War, the creation of the Constitution, Westward Expansion, and slavery. We need to create a 40 question multiple choice question exam.

First, create a document in a format that could be easily copied and pasted into a Google Doc. It should include space for students names, the date, the period they are in and have a title. Then, create the questions. We need 40 MCQs on the topics I mentioned and any other U.S. history topics that are particularly notable pre-Civil War and would be covered in most regular level U.S. History classes. There should be no questions about the era before European arrival to North America and no questions about the Civil War or the period after it. The questions should be bolded and the answer choices should not be. The questions should be numbered.  The answer choices should be labelled A,B, C, D. There should be an equal distribution of correct answers among the letters. 

After you create the test, create an answer key with a 1 sentence explanation for each of the correct answers. Then list how many of each correct answer there were (ie. how many correct answers were A, B, C, and D).

Evaluation criteria:
The response should ensure that the correct answers to the exam questions are distributed equally among the letters A, B, C, and D. For example, there should be exactly 10 correct answers allocated each letter.
The response should include a final summary accurately stating the total count of correct answers for each letter.
The response should include a title for the final exam.
The response should include fields for the student's name, the date, and the class period at the top of the exam document.
The response should ensure that the historical scope of the questions is limited to the period from the first European colonies in North America up to, but not including, the Civil War.
The response should create exactly 40 multiple-choice questions.
The response should number the questions sequentially from 1 to 40.
The response should ensure that the questions cover topics related to the following: the Revolutionary War, the creation of the Constitution, Westward Expansion, and slavery.
The response should create questions that are suitable in difficulty for an 11th-grade U.S. History class. For example, questions should test knowledge of key events, figures, and concepts, rather than obscure or collegiate-level trivia.
The response should ensure that the text of each of the 40 questions is bolded.
The response should ensure that the text for the answer choices for each question is not bolded.
The response should ensure that the four answer choices for each question are labeled with the letters A, B, C, and D.
The response should provide an answer key in a separate section after the 40-question exam.
The response should ensure that the answer key includes a single-sentence explanation for each of the 40 correct answers.
The response should be formatted in a way that is easily transferable to a word processor like Google Docs. For example, it should use standard text formatting, clear headings, and avoid complex layouts like tables that would not paste cleanly.
The response should ensure that the set of 40 questions also includes topics beyond the four major themes that are commonly taught in a regular 11th‑grade U.S. History curriculum. For example, it should include questions about the French and Indian War, early American foreign policy, Native American relations, early industrialization and early reform movements.
The response should ensure that the exam does not include questions about the era before European arrival to North America.
