--- title: How Mova does at school — the tests of its primary school, question by question description: Mova's small language model takes the tests of its primary school: 18472 of 49635 right (37.2%) over 25 courses and 3932 lessons, every question with the student's choice, the right answer and why, the scores by stars, the exam and three controls. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/school-run/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / at school # How Mova does at school Mova's small language model, the student, goes through the lessons of its primary school one by one: it reads each lesson, learns from its exercises, and takes its tests and its exam — four options a question, chance about a quarter. Nothing here is answered by a large model: every choice is the student's own, and every choice says why. **Tests:** 18472 of 49635 right (37.2%) · **Exam:** 5442 of 15723 right (34.6%) · **By stars:** plain 3291 of 7658 · ★ 11413 of 33041 · ★★ 2674 of 6077 · ★★★ 1094 of 2859 · **Courses:** 25 · **Lessons:** 3932 · **Controls:** all red in 25 of 25 courses · **Run:** 2026-10-18, commit `f3c23ea72` The stars are the wit of a lesson: plain lessons ask what the lesson says, ★★★ is the olympiad level. The exam asks the same knowledge in stiff, formal, official language. A test the student did not understand — read into no frame that matched what it remembers — is a guess: it takes the first option shown. ## The controls {#controls} Each course is run with three permanent controls beside the real student, and a score counts only when all three are **red** — below the real student's score. **No lesson:** a student of its own that reads no lesson, learns from the same exercises and takes the same tests; if it does as well, the score comes from the questions and options, not from the lessons. **Questions shuffled:** the real student answers each test's options under the next test's question; if that does as well, it is not reading the question. **Key sentences removed:** a student that reads each lesson without the sentence that holds each test's answer; if it does as well, the answers do not come from where the lesson says them. Two guessers set the bar beside them: one that always picks the longest option, one that always picks the first option shown (what the student does when it understands nothing). ## The courses
