Why misconception-targeted, not problem volume
Most AP Physics 1 points are lost to a small set of well-documented misconceptions: treating centripetal force as a separate physical force, assuming heavier objects fall faster, double-counting tension, confusing average with instantaneous velocity.
If you hold a misconception, more practice with it intact reinforces it. The fastest path from a 3 to a 4 is identifying which two or three misconceptions are costing you points and addressing them directly. That is what Mistake Master is built to do.
