Some students might still see green progress bars on their course for now. All students will have access to the new section scores and updated platform features by 1 September 💡
Your Up Score is your ultimate measure of success - boost it consistently, and you’ll be A*/A ready in no time! 🌟 Depending on your current Up Score, there are plenty of ways to level up.
What is Up Score?
Your Up Score shows how much of the course you’ve mastered. It takes into account the content you’ve completed, your quiz performance, and your results in exam papers. Keeping an eye on it is the best way to track your progress and see how exam-ready you are 🚀
The goal? Aim for 90% or higher by your exam, and you’ll be firmly on track for an A*/A 🌟
Where can I find my Up Score?
You’ll see your Up Score on the courses page (overall score) and within each course (individual module scores). By exam day, you’ll want each module and your overall score to be at 90% or above 💡.
What increases Up Score?
Completing and improving your work in activities and lessons will push your Up Score higher. This includes:
📹 Completing video lessons
✅ Getting quiz answers correct
💪 Using Strengthen to improve section scores
🌟 Using Refresh Knowledge to combat memory decay
📄 Tackling exam papers
🔃 Redoing exam papers and improving your marks
What will decrease Up Score?
Having or doing any of the following might also lower your Up Score or pull it down:
🚫 Not using Up Learn regularly
⚠️ Having sections you haven’t started working on yet
❌ Incorrect quiz answers
📉 Low exam paper marks
🧠 Memory decay
Some content like summaries and exam practice by topic are great for revision but don’t contribute to your Up Score 🚨
How do section scores contribute to Up Score?
Your section scores are the best measure of how well you have understood a section or topic - 90% and a green ring means you're acing that section!💡
These scores, together with your exam paper and exam question results, combine to make up your overall Up Score.
To reach 90% Up Score, you’ll want each section score in the green zone and at 90% - think solid green rings 💚
When should I use Strengthen?
Strengthen is designed to help you revisit questions you got wrong. Once you’ve finished a section, use it to push your score into the green ✅
Each time you correct a question, your Up Score climbs higher, helping you reach that 90% target 🔥
When should I use Refresh Knowledge?
Refresh Knowledge brings back questions from across the course that you haven’t seen in a while. This prevents memory decay and keeps your learning strong over time.
Use it regularly will keep decay down and your scores up! 🎉
