Instructions - Achievements

As you move forward through the app, in addition to earning points that contribute to advancing in ranks, there are also "achievements" that you earn at different milestones. There are a variety of different achievements, and unlike the ranks, once you earn an achievement, you won't lose it, even if you lose points for wrong answers. When you earn an achievement, you will be notified on the screen after answering the question. It's possible to earn an increase in rank at the same time as you earn an achievement, but that isn't required. Some achievements are for specific types of question (multiple-choice vs. fill-in) while others apply regardless of question type, e.g., you get an achievement the first time you get a streak of 10 questions in a row correct, regardless of what type of question they were). You can check on your current status in terms of achievements by choosing "Achievements" on the menu. This will let you know your current values for the number of points that you've earned for each type of question (these do not reduce when you get an answer wrong) as well as your current streak of correct answers (which resets when you get one wrong). Questions that take too long do not change these values, nor do questions where you used a hint. Below those numbers you will have a listing of all the achievements you have earned, and last you'll have an indication of how many achievements are remaining to be earned (there are 37 possible).
