Treasure and revision
A place to keep the questions that taught you something, in your own words, so the last week before the exam has something real to revise from.
Most revision material is somebody else's. Treasure is the part of Hue Eval that builds yours: every time a question catches you out, you capture it with a note about what you missed, and it lands in a vault organised by exam paper. Three months later that vault is the most useful document you own.
Gems
A gem is a labelled collection inside your vault. Four come ready to use, ordered by how much a question hurt:
Most precious. The insight you would want to read the morning of the exam.
Critical. The mistake that would cost you the paper if you made it again.
Important. Worth knowing, worth a second look.
Polish. Careless mistakes, wrong shortcuts, traps to avoid.
You can also forge your own — give it a title, an icon and a colour, and it behaves like the rest. A gem for "integration by parts, every time I panic" is a perfectly good gem.
Capturing a question
The treasure button sits on every question while you are practising and on every question in Deep Analysis. Pressing it opens Capture this question, which shows your gem vault: the gems you already have, how many questions are in each, and which of them already hold this question.
- Press the treasure button on a question.
- Pick a gem to capture into, or forge a new one on the spot.
- Write what you want to remember. Everything autosaves as you type.
A question can live in more than one gem. One already captured shows its own colour on the button, so you can see at a glance what you have kept without opening anything.
Polishing a note
A captured question holds three fields, and they are deliberately not one free-text box:
- Note — what the question was really testing, in your words.
- Do — the step or check that gets it right.
- Don't — the trap, the shortcut that does not hold, the thing you actually did.
Each field can be tidied up for you if you want it: write the rough version, and Hue Eval will sharpen the wording without changing what you meant. Useful when you are capturing at speed during a review and do not want to stop and compose.
It is the field people skip and the one that works. "Correct answer is B" teaches you nothing in March. "I assumed the sequence was arithmetic because the first two gaps matched" is the note that stops you doing it again.
Your vault
The vault groups everything you have captured into a chest per exam paper. A paper you have never captured from shows as a chest still locked; the moment you save your first gem under it, it opens and fills. Chests with the most in them sort to the top, so the vault leads with the paper you are actually working on.
Each track's page also has a Treasure tab showing just that track's gems, which is usually where you want to read them from — next to the progress and the weak topics for the same exam.
Revision sets
Two mechanisms turn what you kept back into practice:
Marking a question to revisit in Deep Analysis adds it to a list. From the track page you can launch a practice test assembled from nothing but your revisit questions — which is the single most efficient test on the platform, because every question in it is one you have already failed.
A revisit question can also be opened on its own. You answer it first, and only then does it reveal the correct answer, the stored explanation and your old note — so it is a real attempt, not a reread.
How to use it in the last week
- Stop capturing. In the final week the vault should be read, not grown — new notes you write now you will not revisit.
- Read Diamond and Ruby end to end, for every chest you are sitting. That is an hour and it is the highest-value hour available to you.
- Run one revisit-only test per track. If something you captured two months ago still breaks, that is what the remaining days are for.
- Leave Sapphire for the night before. Careless-mistake notes are exactly what you want fresh.
