Is there something a bit off with the questions in the OG assigned for today? I noticed some questions that I have already done and other questions that obviously have nothing to do with integers (I saw at least one geography question).

I checked the email again and again to make sure I wasn't hallucinating and I was right.

Anyone notice the same?

I noticed the same thing. Few questions mentioned in the exercise no. 234, 236, 241, 242, 249 dont exist in OG. Also, few questions were repetitive.

Eric,

Could you pls check and confirm.

Hi Kukulcan,

You're absolutely correct - the questions don't match up.
For some reason, while creating the Day 8 email, I used the categorized questions from the OG 11 instead of the OG12.

For Day 8, you should tackle the following questions in the OG12:

Problem Solving: 3, 7, 23, 36, 40, 65, 72, 82, 87, 106, 107, 110, 142, 159, 185, 198, 217, 219, 224
Data Sufficiency: 6, 12, 16, 17, 41, 73, 76, 82, 90, 98, 106, 110, 128, 169, 171, 172

Sorry for the confusion.

Brent

Greetings and thanks for this marvelous program. I noticed that only a small number of participants read this message which gives new exercise numbers for Day 8. Would you have a moment to email that information out to the group as an addendum to the Day 8 curriculum? Many thanks for your excellent work.

Michele

Hi Michele,

It turns out that the error was caught and fixed before most people received their email for that day.

All the best,
Brent
