Hi Neeti,

There's definitely a pattern in the questions you've posted in the last few days. I'm guessing that they're all from the same low-quality source. So first, please tell us where you got these questions. And secondly, you should find better-quality material to study from!

Ceilidh,

The source of the above question is bellcurves.com. I read about this source on the experience shared by an 800 scorer on this website. I started solving the questions, but these questions were not as perfect as OG questions and the answer explanations were vague.

Thank you for your help! Now I have stopped visiting this site.
