Understanding Mastery Levels

How Mastery is Calculated

Your mastery of a concept increases when you:

  • Ask thoughtful questions about it
  • Successfully solve related problems
  • Explain concepts back to the AI
  • Apply concepts in new contexts

Mastery decreases over time if not reinforced (spaced repetition).

Mastery Stages

  • 0-25%: Novice - Just introduced to the concept
  • 26-50%: Learning - Building understanding
  • 51-75%: Competent - Can apply concept with guidance
  • 76-100%: Mastered - Deep understanding, can teach others
