What you'll learn

Data beats intuition. Tracking accuracy, time, and confidence reveals blind spots that subjective self-assessment always misses.
Classification is the gateway to mastery. Naming the reasoning task before solving is a metacognitive skill that speeds learning.
Prioritization multiplies effort. Drilling your highest-error categories beats reviewing everything equally for score improvement.
A personal weakness map is a professional asset. Logging metrics and converting them into a plan mirrors data-driven workflows.

This Short Course was created to help Critical Thinking professionals accomplish a data-driven LR self-diagnosis. By completing this course, you'll be able to walk into your next practice session with a clear, prioritized plan built from your own performance data.
