Work through a practice session

A practice session is the screen where you answer questions. On a computer, the session fits the screen: the question sits on the left and the Question Navigator and AI Coach sit on the right, and each scrolls on its own. On phones and tablets, the page scrolls normally and the coach opens from a Coach button.

The header shows small pills with tooltips:

  • Mode: Learn, Practice, or Test.
  • Answered: how many questions you’ve answered.
  • Accuracy: coloured green, amber, or red.
  • Session XP: XP earned in this session.
  • Weekly goal: questions answered this week out of 50 (Learn and Practice only).

Use the focus button to fill the screen with the exam. Press Esc to leave focus mode.

  1. Read the question and work it out before looking at the options.
  2. Select an option or type your answer. Check answer stays disabled until you’ve picked an answer.
  3. Optionally, tap how confident you are: Sure, Unsure, or Guess.
  4. Optionally, add a one-sentence Why this answer?. It is sent along with Check answer, and the AI Coach responds to your reasoning first.
  5. Choose Check answer, read the feedback, and use Ask the coach why if the explanation isn’t clear.

Your first confidence choice and reasoning for a question are kept, even if you answer it again. A correct Guess stays in your mistakes so you can practise it again. A wrong Sure is marked overconfident.

In Learn and Practice modes, each question earns XP once:

Result XP
Correct +10
Close (a typo, a number within 2%, or partial credit on a marked written answer) +5
An honest attempt +2
Writing a Why this answer? +3
Comeback: you missed it in an earlier attempt and got it right now +15
Streak: every third correct answer in a row +5

Answering a question again doesn’t award more XP. Test mode doesn’t award XP per question.

The navigator works for sessions with 100 or more questions. Filter by All, Unanswered, Flagged, or Wrong. Move through pages of 50 questions, or use Go to # to jump to a question number. When the coach is open, the navigator shrinks to a strip around the current question. Choose ▦ All to open the full grid.

In Test mode, check your unanswered questions, then submit. Results and the review are described in mock tests. If you lose your connection, open the attempt again from the Exam Prep home. Don’t start a new attempt.

Next: AI Coach and targeted practice.
