What you'll practice
The Red Rock Study simulation mirrors the real two-part structure, both parts sharing one 35-minute clock:
Study — Investigation
read the research objective and exhibits, and drag the values that matter into the Research Journal. Collect too little and you're stuck later; collect everything and you've shown you can't filter.

Study — Analysis
answer chained quantitative questions using the journal and the built-in calculator, where unrounded results carry forward.
Study — Report
fill the written review, choose the chart type, and complete the chart. Confirm it and you cannot go back.

Cases
six independent mini-cases, each with its own exhibit and no connection to the study data — where time management decides your score.

Timed, scored, percentile-placed after every run. Elite unlocks the full breakdown and fresh case variations for unlimited practice.
