I asked Helen, how she felt she did on her exam. Helen replied, "I'm certain I did very well"; "I may have aced it!".

Marie-Christine: Almost there. Check pronoun agreement, article usage, and punctuation;-)
Janine: A nice solution.
Kelsey: On the right track. Check word confusion and punctuation:-)
Nancy: The reworking is generally good, but notice that you have missed out a word! Also, there's a minor punctuation item.
Tammy: Another good solution, but you need to check the punctuation;-)
