To do this, Sumdog needs to get to know the students' strengths and weaknesses. This is done with our diagnostic test which runs automatically the first time students play Sumdog.
During the test, the games run as normal. Students may get asked tricky questions, as we check what level they've reached. Please ask them not to worry. They should simply guess answers: the learning engine will understand what's happening, and place them in the correct level.
Once the diagnostic test is complete, we'll reward students with their first pet.
