Have you considered studying for another profession?

I don't know about 10. However, the only answer you have correct is 7.

You seem to be wasting your time and money in this class.

I don't mean to be mean on this end but that is a very rude thing to ask anyone. 1st off i'm newly married, 6 months pregnant, and this is not the only thing that i'm going to school for. i actually have a 91% in my class and this is the only test that i've had problems with and for this test to be test #17 out of 17 i think that's pretty good. Not to bring up that I've passed the other 16/17 test with A's and B's. i'm also going to school for my associates degree in early childhood education so i'm just a little stressed. Thank you so much for your help though.

what about 11-20 why are they not here???
