FAQ
How long are questions timed out for?
- After you answer a question in an Exam the question will be timed out for a certain period of time. This is based on if you got the question correct or not, and what your current mastery ranking is for that question. The points that you have in that question AFTER you answer it is what is used to determine the time out time.
- The purpose of this is to use Spaced Repetition to help ensure you are learning the material for the long term instead of just in short term memory.
Time out based on mastery points
1 - 5 hours (Apprentice)
2 - 32 hours (Familiar)
3 - 4 days
4 - 8 days (Proficient)
5 - 14 days
6 - 22 days (Mastered)
If you get the question wrong and lose a point, then the time out is cut in half.
