Would be interesting to see a quantitative study of how helpful this type of thing is (e.g. compare student performance on a test with and without the confidence booster).

who needs confidence boost the most? the students?
Not sure who needs it the most, but many studies show large percentages of graduate students are mentally distressed. It could help there. I was just giving an example of how to quantify how much it helps.
makes sense.
