📜 WAYPOINT LESSON

The verdict rubric

⭐⭐⭐ advanced⏳ 10 min read📍 Lesson 254 of 256

85% and in-budget is ready; 70–85% is one more cycle; below 70% is routing, not judgment.

The verdict. Score the simulation on the same three axes as the exams (accuracy per mechanism, time variance, trap map), then apply this rubric to decide what the result means:

  • ≥ 85% accuracy, time within budget: ready. The remaining risk is variance, not gaps — maintain with one mixed set per week until exam day.
  • 70–85% accuracy: nearly ready. One more cycle: the weakest mechanism's module → its timed set → this simulation again. The 48-hour spacing rule applies.
  • < 70% accuracy: not yet — and the simulation did its job. The trap map will show one or two mechanisms dominating the misses. Re-run those modules' practices entirely, then Exam #3 (module 23) as the re-entry sim, THEN return here.

No verdict is a judgment of ability — it is a routing decision about the next seven days. The course's final lesson (below) holds the after-plan.
