Guide
Your first week: the daily loop
How a daily session works, and how to build a streak that actually moves your marks.

Captivate Exam Hub is built around one habit: a single, finishable revision session each day. The app composes it for you — quick recall first, then the reviews that are due, then questions on your weakest knowledge points. This guide walks through your first week.
One daily session
- Open Today — the hero card shows your session for the day.
- Start with the flashcards step: quick recall of definitions, terms and formulas.
- Clear your due reviews next. These are questions and cards whose scheduled return date has passed — the highest-value minutes of your day.
- Work the weak-spot questions the loop picked from your shakiest knowledge points, and mark yourself honestly against the solutions.
- Finish the session. Your streak ticks over and the daily-goal ring fills with the time you actually studied.
Tips
- Small and daily beats big and occasional — 20 focused minutes every day outperforms a three-hour Sunday.
- Rate and mark yourself harshly. Your ratings drive the schedule and the readiness forecast; generous marking only hides your gaps from yourself.
- Add real exam dates to your subjects — the countdowns and exam-day projections get sharper.
Watch out for
- Skipping due reviews to do 'new' work — due items are precisely the ones you're about to forget; they come first for a reason.
- Cramming one subject for a week while the others pile up due reviews — the loop spreads work across subjects on purpose.
- Refreshing the page hoping for an easier session — the day's session is snapshotted and stays put.
