The idea in plain language
A higher score on a smaller or easier set is not necessarily stronger preparation.
Start with the reason behind the idea. Reading it once can create familiarity; explaining it in a different example is a better way to check what you understood.
What to notice
Compare format, hints and content coverage.
Describe the information you have, and name anything that remains uncertain. Avoid filling in the missing part just because the situation looks familiar.
A useful response
Look for improvement on similar conditions.
