Reading your verdict

There are three outcomes and they are not a grade. Each one names a different next action.

The most serious one means the design needs to change. It is reached either by failing a blocking question or by scoring below half, and in both cases the answer is not to explain the score — it is to alter the thing being built and take the test again.

The middle verdict means there is something open. Either the score is short of the high bar or there are questions you could not answer, and the work is to close those before this reaches anyone. This is the most common result on a first attempt and it is not a bad place to be.

The clear result means proceed, and the useful habit is to keep the answers with the project. Six months later the interesting question is not what you scored but what you believed at the time, and a stored set of answers is the only honest record of that.

Every attempt is kept. That matters because retaking a test after changing your answers rather than your design is a specific temptation, and a visible history makes it obvious — to you more than anyone. The insights page also reads across every attempt on every project and shows which questions you fail most often, which is usually a more useful finding than any single score.
