Mastering Skills
Each skill has a mastery level between 0 and 100. Getting to different thresholds will achieve 1, 2 or 3 bars of mastery at that skill.
Each skill consists of subskills of varying difficulties. To get to higher mastery at a skill, you not only need to get questions consistently correct; you need to also master subskills of higher difficulty. Suppose the difficulty within a skill varied from 1 to 4. You could get up to a mastery of 25/100 by answering difficulty 1 question, 50/100 by answering difficulty 2, and so on.
The mastery level also allows us to determine the most appropriate questions to choose for you/students when you select multiple subskills or when you practice/set a task on a skill as a whole.
Exam Practice vs Question Generators
There's two sources of questions. Exam Practice involves past paper exam questions from a variety of exam boards. Question Generators generate random questions on more specific question types, and are accompanied by shorter worked example videos.
We recommend using Question Generators to master specific concepts and question types, and using Exam Practice for a broader range of questions within a topic.
