i found that some of the questions have wrong answers marked as correct ( who pays for VA reinspection - buyer/ system has marked the answer wrong)

The course was very comprehensive. However some parts seemed out of date. For example it assumes that all offer are presented face to face and makes no provison for emailing an offer to a seller which is common procedure today.

Very interesting course, learned a lot of helpful things. I just wish there were some videos included. It feels very dry having to read everything. I learn much better through videos, especially when concepts are explained through real stories or examples that I can relate to and remember more easily.
