Recall
You can state the definition or plug numbers into a formula. It feels like knowing.
Understanding
You can use the idea somewhere new: a question you haven't seen, or a real decision.
Most financial education tests the first and calls it the second. Each topic here has two recall questions and three understanding questions, with an explanation after every answer.

Understanding
This gap is what I study.
I build financial education, and I test whether it actually teaches anyone anything or just produces the feeling of knowing. If a topic caught you off guard, that's the point.
