# Student's bad rep, one fix, good rep

A sports and outdoors format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/sports-and-outdoors/student-s-bad-rep-one-fix-good-rep

Show a real student failing, make one live correction, then show the corrected successful rep. It worked for 6 accounts, with a median of 6x their usual reach. Type: Angle. Seen as: Talking head.

## Why it works

The before-and-after happens in one session, so the improvement is visible and believable. The honest failed first rep makes viewers trust the fix.

## How to make it

1. Open with the student's flawed rep, labeled if you like
2. Coach the single adjustment on camera
3. Show the great rep immediately after

## Hook formula

BAD REP ❌ → GREAT REP ✅

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
