What is 'Test mode' quizzing?

✔️ In test mode, questions are individually timed and your teacher can track your progress.
You cannot access your notes in test mode.

✔️ If you answer several questions incorrectly, the site will prompt you to return to practice mode - this is entirely your choice, although we do strongly advise that you use practice mode to fully embed your learning before entering test mode.

✔️ At the end of the test, you will see your score for the test. The Live Data panel on the Dashboard will only show the score for the last 12 questions in each lesson.
