Measure your progress in GarageBand on Mac
In addition to seeing how you play in real time, you can view your progress over time to measure your improvement and see what areas need additional practise. Each complete performance of a lesson appears in the Progress and High Scores windows, where you can compare and review them. In both windows, you can see your percentage for each complete performance, and click an individual performance to view detailed information about how you played.
You can also delete your performance history for a lesson, which deletes your previous scores and the recording of your previous performance.
