The game required the use of at least "three features" which I originally interpreted as needing to use at least 3 of the 4 different kinds of pieces which was not the case, three individual instances of just one of those game pieces would be satisfactory.
As far as I can remember, I've not come across a game like that where they've been so esoteric in labeling the game pieces like this.
This is exactly what got me, I was looking at one question for probably 4 minutes thinking "there's two right answers, wtf!" and finally realized this when I gave up and moved onto the next question. Not a tough game at all knowing that, but prior to that... it had me lol.

Yeah once I figured that out I flew through it. Had they called the types of features like "genres" or something and referred to the individual stories as "features" to make the distinction clear, it would've been a 5 minute game for sure.
yeah....during the real June test, I had maybe 6-7 minutes and the wording paralyzed me...straight up guessed on all 5 questions. Luckily managed to get 2/5 but man...I was not in a good mood for the rest of my sections.

Humanities was rough since it's my worst subject but I have been doing them fairly regularly since early July. We'll see if it helped at all...

I had to apply for a new passport and got a pic a month ago. When I took it, the guy told me not to smile, bc you can't in passports. The pic legit looks like a mugshot. It'll probably be the worst pic they see all day on Saturday.

Last time I just took a picture with my phone and printed it out at home, had no problems with it so I'll just do that again most likely.
It's like $8 to get it done at CVS or Walgreens or whatever drug store is near you. I wouldn't risk it! I got regular passport-style photos.

I feel like I've been getting more wrong by trying pick answers based on anticipations.
Is it odd that my strategy is generally never to anticipate? I feel like I never do LR by the book but I rarely miss any.
I wholeheartedly practice this approach. I feel like trying to anticipate an answer opens you up to sneaky tricks in the choices.
