Often when I make practice drills I find that if I pick questions automatically, it seems like there is a tendency puts the most difficult 5 star questions first, and the easier 3 stars and 2 stars later. Maybe that's just me, but at the very least you can say there's no observable pattern as to how questions are ordered based on difficulty. This is really disorienting, as this is the opposite of what you're going to encounter on the tests, and generally it's just easier for me to work into the difficulty.

I'd like to propose that the automatic question generator can sort questions starting from easiest to hardest. The ordering doesn't have to be super precise, but I feel like this feature would both enable better performance and better simulate test conditions

    Hi there,

    Thanks so much for the suggestion! I tried to replicate the issue on our end, but the automatic drills I tested didn’t appear to sort questions strictly by difficulty—they seemed to be mixed.

    It may have just been a coincidence, but if you notice this happening consistently, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at studentservice@7sage.com with a few screenshots, we’d be happy to investigate further!
