09 out of 10 :). Thank you Mr.Alex. Great lesson.
I read carelessly the question number 9 and my result is 90%. PS. How do I correct next resume? “I am versatile personality : I cook disgusting, I paint awful, I sing badly, I dance like a bear. Do I need to add my achievements?” ;)
I think I´ll bookmark this video to my browser, just in case. Hopefully, I won´t need to use it in the future, but who knows…
