Tracking your XP shows the effort you’re putting into your studies. It helps you stay motivated and build strong study habits for exam success 📚

What is XP?

XP (experience points) are rewards for your effort. You earn them whenever you engage with activities on Up Learn, like watching lessons, answering questions, or attempting exam papers. Think of XP as a fun way to measure how much work you’re putting in 🎉

👉 Remember: XP and hours reflect effort and time, but your Up Score is the best way to track mastery and exam readiness 🎯

How do I gain XP?

You earn XP by engaging with the platform - completing activities and lessons 💻

Gain XP by:

✅Logging in to Up Learn

✅Watching video lessons and summaries

✅Answering quiz questions and in-video questions

✅Attempting exam questions and papers

✅Using Refresh Knowledge and Strengthen

Correct answers in quizzes and high scores on exam papers will earn you more XP than incorrect ones 📈

You will gain 0 XP if you:

❌ Don't log in and use Up Learn

❌ Don't revisit or strengthen modules

❌ Repeat content you’ve recently answered correctly

Heads up! 🙌 If you’ve already completed a question or activity in the last month and nailed it, you won’t earn XP for it again. But if you head back to that content after a month, you’ll gain XP because the memory decay will have set in. That’s just the platform helping you focus on fresh challenges ✨

How can I track XP?

Open the notifications page (bell icon, top right) to see your total XP 🔔

This includes every point you’ve ever earned - your complete XP journey 🙌

On the same page, you’ll find:

🌟 A breakdown of your XP activities

🌟 Updates from any mark checks you’ve requested

Your weekly XP and hours are shown on your Courses page, just above your modules 🔎 This gives you a weekly snapshot of your effort.

⏰ Both reset every Monday (Monday–Sunday cycle).

How can I set my daily XP goal and what is my streak?

In any module, use ‘Manage goal’ to set your daily XP target. Each day you reach it, your streak grows 🔥 Miss it once, and your streak resets to 0.

Daily XP goals help you build consistency and momentum. Stick to them, and you’ll be well on your way to reaching a 90%+ Up Score before exams 💪

How quickly will my XP update?

Instantly! 🙌 As soon as you complete an activity, your XP and hours are added and show up on your notification page and courses page right away 🎯
