FINISH-THIS-WEEK MATH
Done: 5 of 25 cards + 5 sims + 3 games + Career Compass + 6 supporting pages = ~16 interactive builds
Remaining cards: 20 cards across 4 phases (Flight School through Mission 3)
Remaining systems: Career Interview, IDEAS Board, 4 Live It modules, 3 supporting content
Realistic sprint: Polish Sims A3–A5 + integrate existing pieces + start Flight School = strong week
Full completion: All 25 cards + all systems = ~2–3 more focused weeks
