It looks good and everything is answered well except number 7 isnt answered right. You answered it as if I was asking what over types were used, but it is asking what other types it COULD have used:P

Pretty good, Jessica, except that there are some spelling and grammatical errors. I know that you put a lot of thought into your answers, because I was sitting beside you when you wrote them! =]
