About this module

Forty-five minutes, fifteen questions, no warning about which area. The skill is calibration — giving the two-sentence answer when that is what is wanted and going three levels deeper when the follow-up asks for it.

Built as drills across every earlier track, so gaps surface while there is still time to close them.
