Where do the questions come from?
Every practice question is generated by AI to cover the same topics and formats as the UIL and TMSCA Science contests. They are not word-for-word copies of any official test.
The questions students and coaches ask before they sign up. If something is missing, ask through our contact form.

No. Lonestar Academics is an independent study tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or approved by the University Interscholastic League (UIL) or the Texas Math and Science Coaches Association (TMSCA). Those names are used only to describe the contests this tool helps you study for.
Nothing. You get unlimited practice across Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, with your field-day count included. The spaced-review queue and the full analytics layer are part of it too. No card on file, ever.
A field-day is any day you complete a meaningful session, at least five correct answers, or ten attempts at 60% or better. Your count grows by one each qualifying day. If you miss a day, a free weekly freeze automatically covers it (up to three banked) so a sick day or test week doesn’t wipe out a long run.
The selector targets the zone where accuracy and progress balance, with questions tuned to where you actually learn fastest. As you answer, the app recalibrates per-subtopic so the next question sits in that zone. You can ignore the mechanics; it’s invisible by design.
Every question you miss enters a spaced-repetition queue with a scheduled re-attempt date. The queue surfaces a card right before you’d be likely to forget it. Open it once a day; ten cards usually takes three minutes.
It’s an estimate, recomputed after every session, weighted across the three subjects in the proportion the UIL test uses. Predicted scores rise faster than real ones early in the season and flatten as you get closer to your ceiling. Treat it as a directional signal, not a precise score.
Yes. In Settings there’s a single toggle, “Minimize game-like surfaces.” When on, the streak chip, milestone reveals, audio cues, and team roster all hide. Your underlying state continues to update so you can re-enable anytime.
Your answers are visible only to you and, if you joined through a coach access code, to your coach in aggregate. We don’t sell or share data with advertisers, and there are no third-party advertising trackers. Full details in /privacy.
The first miss is covered by a freeze. If your freezes run out, your field-day count resets to one and your longest-run record stays intact. Pick up where you left off; the queue and your mastery data don’t go anywhere.
From Settings, under Your data. We remove your personal record within 30 days. There is nothing to pay and nothing to cancel.
