Metrics Explained
Skills passed. To pass a skill, participants must answer 3/5 questions correctly. This is not the same as mastering a skill. To master a skill in a skill check, you must answer 3/3 of the most difficult level of questions.
Lives remaining. The higher the number the better. Each skill has 3 lives, so a skill analysis with 10 skills has 30 lives.
Neurons are shown in a percentage of earned out of possible. Remember that slider questions allow for partial credit. Also, remember that difficult questions have higher neurons.
Total time to complete the analysis. The less time the better unless an extremely short time may indicate an invalid score.
Percentage of passed skills out of the total skills assessed.
