How the 30 days are built. The source material has 60 SRT situations, 1260 WAT words and 94 unique pictures. Every item is used exactly once in the course: 2 SRT situations and 42 WAT words per day. The 7 hazy PPDT pictures appear on days 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30. On the other days PPDT uses a group-scene picture that is not used as TAT anywhere in the course.
Full-length sets (TAT 11 + blank, WAT 60, SRT 60) remain available in module practice and the full simulation. Days are open in any order; turn on sequential unlocking in Settings if you prefer.
