Practice and next step

Original Videoath practice: Use the linked general ethical-reasoning prompt to practise a concise spoken answer relevant to a Touro California panel interview response. Record a timed response, review feedback tied to the answer, choose one weakness, adjust one concrete part, record it again, and compare both attempts before choosing the next practice target. This is general practice, not a school-authentic question.
