How to Perform in the new G2 SEC Examinations | Learner’s Guide Vol 0120 | Answer-State Control — Know Whether the Question Is Parsed, Solved, Blocked, Verified or Closed

G2 SEC examination work becomes safer when learners know what state a question is in. “I have looked at it” is not a useful state. Parsed, modelled, solved, verified, blocked and closed are different states with different next actions.

This one-hundred-and-twentieth Learner’s Guide develops answer-state control across K200 English, K210 Mathematics and K223–K225 Science. It connects Vol 0100 Checkpoint Compression with Vol 0116 Dependency Blast Radius.

The state-machine rule

Every state should imply a next action. If a learner cannot say what must happen next, the state label is too vague. Move forward only when the exit condition for the current state is satisfied; move backward only when verification identifies a broken dependency.

1. unread

In the unread state, name the evidence that proves the question has reached this stage and the single next transition that creates the most progress. Avoid mixing several states at once—for example, polishing final wording while the model is still uncertain.

For practice, pause a question deliberately and label its state in two or three words. Another learner should be able to resume from that label plus the visible working. If they must reconstruct the whole task, the state description is too weak.

State control also improves review. A closed answer needs only a cheap interface sweep; a blocked answer needs the named missing input; a candidate answer needs verification; a repaired answer needs one downstream consistency check.

2. instruction-scanned

In the instruction-scanned state, name the evidence that proves the question has reached this stage and the single next transition that creates the most progress. Avoid mixing several states at once—for example, polishing final wording while the model is still uncertain.
