Correct Reviews - Am I really that good?

[Valorzinski]

So I just noticed that there is a new widget that shows the percentage of correct answers you got

It shows that I’m 82.61% this week, previous period 85.36%. it doesn’t feel like it coz I have 55 recent mistakes right now

I’ve never used wnstats or anything similar to it thus far so I don’t really know

It also says “You’re outside the learning zone”, what does that even mean?

Check this thread

What does "learning zone" mean? Is there data to back this up?

So all the new widgets are cool! One in particular has me stumped. The “correct reviews widget”. Why has Wani Kani called this area the learning zone? Is there any data to back this up? Dont get me wrong… I would love to be there too! But is wanikani’s rec to not add more cards until i am there… to cry myself to sleep? Id love to know where this number came from , and if i should take it seriously. The your “outside the learning zone” with no data is a litle.. lackluster [image]

There’s often a negative bias in SRS given that you typically notice and spend more times on mistakes than when you get something right immediately and move on.

An 80% accuracy will often subjectively feel like you’re doing much worse because it still means that you get one out of five answers wrong and probably spend a significant part of your review time dealing with these mistakes.
