Evidence rules first
Every number on your dashboard follows the same rule: no evidence, no claim. A skill you have barely touched says 'limited evidence' — it is never called weak on three questions, and a missing AI evaluation is never treated as a zero.
That means when the dashboard does mark a section 'needs attention', it earned that label: enough scored questions or evaluations, compared against your other sections in the same exam.
Study consistency is about days, not logins
The consistency card counts days on which you actually studied — completed tests, sections or evaluated responses. Logging in does not count, so the streak cannot be gamed and its advice can be trusted.
'Building a routine' means several real study days in the last two weeks; 'consistent' means you sustained it across the month. If it says 'irregular', short regular sessions beat rare long ones.
A practical weekly loop
Once a week, read three things in order: your weakest sufficiently-evidenced skill, your Practice vs Exam split, and the recommendations. Then do exactly what the top recommendation says — it is deterministic and always points at a real next step: resume unfinished work, complete another full test, or practise the weakest skill.
Review is where the improvement happens: every recorded mistake links back to the original question so you can see what actually went wrong. The student dashboard demo shows the whole loop with demonstration data.
