Marie-Christine: Yes, but only change the noun, not the adjective; that comes later on;-)
Ying: Yes, but you need to keep the change that Marie-Christine made; the changes should be cumulative;-) Also note that the name of the course would be "statistics". For the nextg change, you should have changed the indirect object noun.
Janine: You have changed an adjective and an adverb--do you want to find the other adjective?

Veronica can you please clarify what change needs to be made next as this has become a little too confusing, is it number 5?

Janine: Thank you for getting us back on track:-)
Tammy: The next thing to change is the adverb--#5.
