 # Dice Lab Assessment
 
-Everything works as expected. Your docstrings were nice, and your use of Counter 
-was effective for three/four of a kind. Nice work!
+Everything works as expected. Nice work!
+
+## Checkpoint 1
+
+Nice work! I hope you see the benefit of the more concise and Pythonic approach.
+
+## Checkpoint 2
+The content of your docstrings looks good. 
+
+## Checkpoint 3
+Nice work implementing all the goals. I'm guessing you felt there might be a 
+better implementation of small straight. One possibility would be to use a 
+[set](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/datastructures.html#sets), which 
+crucially doesn't allow duplicates, and which supports set operations like 
+intersection.
