Rank Booster: Points, Rankings & Daily Challenges

The Rank Booster is your central hub for tracking XP points, climbing the leaderboard, earning achievement badges, and reviewing your activity history. Every exam you complete, every practice session you finish, and every day you log in contributes to your rank.

Rank Booster Dashboard

Accessing the Rank Booster

  1. Log in to your Testify student account.
  2. Click "Rank Booster" in the left sidebar.
  3. The dashboard loads with your current stats, and a daily login check runs automatically.

What is the Rank Booster?

The Rank Booster is a points-based progression system that rewards you for consistent learning activity. The more you learn, the more points you earn, and the higher you climb on the leaderboard. It combines four key elements:

  • Points (XP) -- Earned through daily logins, exams, practice, and achievements.
  • Levels -- Your accumulated XP determines your level and title.
  • Streaks -- Consecutive daily logins build your streak and earn bonus points.
  • Achievements -- Special badges for reaching milestones.

Daily Login Reward

Each time you visit the Rank Booster for the first time in a day, you receive a daily login reward.

How It Works

  1. Open the "Rank Booster" page.
  2. If you have not logged in today, a Daily Reward popup appears automatically.
  3. The popup shows:
    • A gift icon with the heading "Daily Reward!".
    • A message describing your bonus (e.g., streak multiplier bonus).
    • The points awarded for today's login.
    • Your current streak in days.
    • Whether you leveled up from this reward.
    • Any new achievements triggered by the login.
  4. Click "Awesome!" to dismiss the popup.

Daily Reward Popup

Tip: Log in every day -- even for just a moment -- to maintain your streak. Longer streaks earn bigger daily bonuses.
