Tactics Gym (Problems)

As I said, the gym is inconsistent. When I went through the novice section it wouldn't always let me replay the problems. Yes I get the "3 goes" but the ability to study them further is not always available.

Another problem IS the scoring. Scoring is antithetical to the learning process. I just want to know if I got it right or wrong. And then if I got it wrong, I want to know why, so that I can learn from it and then try again. Testing (scoring) should be done after a good deal of learning, so as to truly evaluate comprehension of an entire unit or section of material. Scoring each problem seriously detracts from the pedagogical value of the gym.
