An essay midterm typically requires the greatest depth of processing as it involves constructing an argument and providing detailed analysis and evidence to support it. Short-answer midterms also require some depth of processing, but not to the same extent as an essay. Multiple-choice midterms involve recall and recognition, but do not require as much analytical thinking or depth of processing. Therefore, Juan, who takes an essay midterm, would require the greatest depth of processing among the three students.
