Written, not scraped.
Nine steps sit between a course and the page you read the night before the exam. Here they are, with a straight answer on which are done by people and which by software.
It starts with the right inputs
Named and ranked before a word is written. Fewer than these, and we promise less.
The nine steps
Nothing is published before step seven. Nothing stays published without step nine.
Take it apart
Before a word is written.
Write it
Along the map, in the author's own words.
Check it, keep it
The two steps that never end.
Written by students who passed it.
Recently, and still remembering what made it hard. There are 15+ authors and coaches on the team today, every one of them taught this process first.
- Passed a course we cover? Write it. Authors are paid per course and credited in the summary.
- Sat the exam and scored it? Coach it. The method comes alive with a person in the room.
What we never do
- Copy a slide, a page or a paragraph.
- Publish a page nobody re-read with the past papers open.
- Fix a mistake quietly. The correction is shown to everyone.
- Sell material for a course we have not written.
- Pretend a course without past papers can be reverse-engineered.
See one, running
The summary, the practice and the mock for one lecture, exactly as a member sees them.
The summary page
The sampling distribution and the standard error
The sampling distribution describes what happens when you take many samples from the same population and compute the mean of each one. Its spread is the standard error: the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size.
The practice
The mock
Same length, same clock, graded on the faculty's cesuur.
