There were a few that were debatable. However, if you choose the more conservative answers, you would have been just fine.

I did mean choose over chose. I meant speaking/typing as if I was talking to those who haven't yet taken the quiz. However, since I did switch styles for the second half of the sentence, I should have used "chose" in the first half or put more thought into it and put "you will be just fine". lol Perfect timing for such a mistake, huh? Nice catch. |

My high-school German teacher declined to teach us future perfect tense. She explained, "After four years of German, you will never have had a need to use it."

And this is Clive making a point that even sometimes things that seem like mistakes can still be accurate. |
