  13. Failed! Now what!?

    That's sooo funny....you're right...It doesn't stop asking you the same thing unless you get it right...I kept saying in my mind I did over 1000 Q bank questions and didn't see this... why don't you ask me one of those 1000 questions that were simila...
  14. Failed! Now what!?
