Module Test Review Is Different
| Aspect | Exam Review | Module Review |
|---|---|---|
| Paper | Full past paper | Single unit/topic |
| Questions | Fixed paper set | Filtered by year range |
| Time dots | Yes | Yes |
| Speed dots | Yes | Yes |
| Explanations | From paper data | From question data |
| Redo | Creates new exam session | Creates new test session |
Don't confuse the two. They're independent pipelines — Exam Center vs. Module Tests explains the difference.
