Title: I beat MedEntry!
Post by: rhjc.1991 on July 08, 2009, 09:41:52 pm
One question in MedEntry drills, I realised the solution was wrong!

WARNING: The material may offend some people. Think twice before looking. (there are no obscene pictures though)


ERRATA:
A is C’s cousin since C is the daughter of his father (D)’s sister (A) [since D and A are both mothered by E]

should read:
A is C’s cousin since C is the daughter of A who is the sister of D, and D is the father of A [since D and A are both mothered by E]

That was very confusing. It probably should've said something about incest...

How is both D and B the father of C? Or am I reading this wrong?
'B is C’s father' and 'A is C’s cousin since C is the daughter of her father (D)’s sister (A)'

No D is the father of B (her father) and D's sister (A) is the mother of C

The physics demonstrators give out stickers if you got 10 in all reports :P

I disagree (and I don't mind if I end up being wrong but I'm going to explain why anyway).

From how I have worked it out, D and B would need to be siblings which they aren't.

The FDE section is majorly disturbing. Incest everywhere. Not to say it isn't legit method (actually, haven't proof read it thoroughly but I'll take your word on it) though, but I guess no one thought of doing so when they were making their answers <_<

I was wrong in my comment. Please check the errata in the initial comment for clarification.

Hmm... it's sad when *they* can't even get their answers correct.
Good pick-up~!

Grossed out by all the incest but... XD

you deserve a sticker

I got given stickers on my Japanese assignments this semester ^_^
They had stuff written in Jap on them XD

We play games in class sometimes too and it feels like I'm back in primary school, lol.
We played Fukuwarai ("Lucky Laugh") to learn directional words (as in: up, right, etc).
Think 'Pin the Tail on the Donkey', but with a person's face :D

/End off-topicness.

Thanks!

Although MedEntry probably dismissed incest as an option.

But then, you mustn't bring in preconceived prejudices to UMAT according to ACER.

LOL. MedEntry is still really great company though.
