Being a “super-forecaster"
This means that when you form an opinion, you make a list of conditions that would change your mind.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
