Quick answers.

Is it really free?

Yes. Free for students, and we never ask for a card.

How accurate is the Fit Score?

It's an estimate from your grades against each course's entry requirements: a guide, not a guarantee. Check the university's own page before you apply.

What happens to my data?

It's never sold and never shared with universities. You can export it any time.
