Practice

Three things happen here: you sit a paper, you fix a weakness, or you get something you wrote marked. Every result lands in Review under the question type it came from.

Sit a paper
A paper from your books
The paper opens in your PDF beside the answer sheet; the site keeps the clock, marks against the published key, gives the band and logs every miss.
 
Sit the next paper →

Get something marked
A writing script, a speaking transcript, or an answer sheet you filled on paper

Photograph the page or paste the text. A script comes back with a band per criterion, the descriptor phrase that decided each one, two quotes from your own writing as evidence and the three fixes worth most. An answer sheet from one of your books is marked against the published key by code, not by a model's opinion of a near miss.
