  1. Callout 1: The band is a rangeThe bar is the range the evidence supports. The dot is the most likely band. The line is the band CLB 9 needs.
  2. Callout 2: Start with the priority fixThis is the one change that would help the band most. It comes from the weakest criterion.
  3. Callout 3: Four criteria, four bandsEach criterion has its own band and a reason it is not higher. The lowest band is highlighted.
  4. Callout 4: Notes point to your wordsEach number in the text opens a note. Notes are ordered by impact and tagged with a criterion.
  5. Callout 5: One next activityThe report ends with one activity for the gap, and the limits of the evidence.
