Prerequisites
No Advanced Preparation or Prerequisites are needed for this course. However, it is recommended to take the other courses in the series prior to completing this one.
Question 5 has the answers as part of the question and I think it even notes the correct answer.
Question 13 and 14 are the same.
Question 24 appears to be written poorly and should be reworded.
