Better than obsessing over rumored pass rates
Timed accuracy: Are you consistently above the official threshold?
Error concentration: Are your misses clustered in one section or spread everywhere?
Pacing: Are you finishing with time to spare or bleeding minutes on hard questions?
Recovery: When you miss a concept once, do you still miss it two days later?
