Understanding Progress Reports

Your Progress Report provides detailed analytics to help you study smarter and track your improvement over time.

Key Metrics

  • Overall Score - Your cumulative accuracy across all questions
  • Domain Breakdown - Performance by each NBCOT® domain with percentages
  • Trend Analysis - How your scores change over time (weekly/monthly)
  • Time Spent - Total study time and session averages
  • Questions Answered - Total count with correct/incorrect split

Domain Analysis

Each domain section shows:

  • Number of questions attempted in that domain
  • Accuracy percentage with visual progress bar
  • Comparison to target scores (typically 70%+)
  • Specific tasks that need more attention
Using Your Data

Focus your study time on domains with lower accuracy scores. Use Manual mode to drill down on specific weak areas identified in your report.

Performance Trends

The trends section helps you see:

  • Weekly accuracy trends (are you improving?)
  • Study consistency (days active per week)
  • Question volume over time
  • Domain-specific improvement
Exam Readiness

When your overall accuracy reaches 75%+ across all domains with sufficient question volume (500+), you're typically ready to take the NBCOT® exam.
