Bonus Questions: A Second Chance to Level Up
Thanks to your feedback, we’ve made a big improvement to how practice exercises work. Students who miss just one question now get a bonus question. If they answer it correctly, they can still earn “Proficient.” Before this change, one wrong answer meant not earning Proficient, even if a student clearly knew their stuff. Now they’ve got a second chance to show what they know!
