The readiness gap

The readiness gap — what this course deliberately did NOT cover, and what the next course will:

• Full FRQ strategy: time allocation, partial-credit harvesting, the four question types in exam format.
• Inheritance/polymorphism at exam depth (this course kept it light, matching the revised framework's reduced weight).
• 2D-array FRQ patterns beyond the foundations of Module 15.
• Formal algorithm analysis beyond O(n)/O(n²) intuition.

Self-assessment before moving on: redo any checkpoint where your first attempt needed hints; rebuild any challenge from scratch on a blank page; and teach one pattern (accumulator, state machine, or select-transform) out loud to a classmate. If you can teach it, the next course can build on it.
