Within seconds, you'll receive a detailed evaluation showing your score across 4 criteria, along with specific feedback on how to improve your answer.
Get Help if Needed
If your score is below 70%, Red (your AI Study Partner) will automatically offer to walk you through the correct procedure step-by-step.
Recording Guidelines
Time Limits
Voice recordings have a 3-minute maximum. This is intentional - Red Seal examiners expect concise, well-organized explanations. If you consistently run out of time, practice organizing your thoughts before recording.

Audio Quality Tips
- Reduce background noise - Turn off fans, music, TV
- Use a headset microphone - Better than laptop/phone mics
- Speak 6-12 inches from mic - Not too close (distortion) or far (unclear)
- Test before recording - Check your mic settings work properly
- Avoid echoes - Record in a room with furniture/carpets, not empty spaces
Understanding Your Evaluation Score
Your voice response is evaluated across 4 criteria that reflect what Red Seal examiners look for in verbal explanations:
Technical Accuracy - 40%
Most important criterion
Are your facts, specifications, and tolerances correct?
Example: When diagnosing an engine misfire, did you mention checking spark plugs, fuel injectors, and compression? Did you cite correct torque specifications?
Completeness - 30%
Second most important
Did you include all necessary steps and considerations?
Example: For brake pad replacement, did you cover: inspection, measuring thickness, checking rotors, lubricating slide pins, and break-in procedure?
Safety - 20%
Critical for Red Seal certification
Did you mention relevant safety precautions and PPE?
Example: Working with electrical systems - did you mention lockout/tagout, testing for voltage, insulated tools, and proper grounding?
Logical Sequence - 10%
Steps in correct order
Are your steps in a logical, safe order?
Example: You should disconnect battery before removing electrical components, not after. Safety steps come before diagnostic steps.
Score Interpretation
90-100% - Excellent
You're exam-ready for this topic! Your explanation was thorough, accurate, and well-organized.
70-89% - Good
Solid understanding with minor gaps. Review the feedback to address any missing steps or details.
50-69% - Needs Work
Significant gaps in your explanation. Red (Study Partner) will offer follow-up to help you understand the complete procedure.
Below 50% - Retry Recommended
Major gaps or misconceptions. Red will walk you through the procedure step-by-step using the Socratic method, then suggest retrying the question.
What To Do If Your Score Is Low (Below 70%)
Study Partner Integration
Step 1: Accept Study Partner Follow-Up
When you receive a low score, you'll see a button: "Get Help from Red". Click it to start an interactive learning session.
Step 2: Interactive Walkthrough
Red uses the Socratic method - instead of just telling you the answer, Red asks guiding questions to help you discover the correct procedure yourself. This builds deeper understanding than passive learning.
Step 3: Review Reference Materials
Red will reference your uploaded study materials (textbooks, notes, equipment manuals) to show you exactly where the correct procedure is documented.
Step 4: Retry the Question
After the study session, Red will suggest retrying the voice question. Most students improve by 20-40 points after a focused study session!
Pro Tip: Don't skip low-scoring questions! These reveal exactly what you need to study before your Red Seal exam. Students who address their weak areas score 15-25% higher on practice exams.
