    I am thinking about tackling some of these writing hits. Any good websites for help with writing and word counts?

    Thanks!

    This HIT requires that your HIT submission rate (%) Qualification have a value that meets the requirement "is greater than 1000". This Qualification represents an aspect of your account status or history. You can improve some Qualifications, such as HIT submission rate and HIT approval rate, by successfully completing other HITs.

    So does this mean you need a 1000% approval to complete this task?

    No, this is one of the rare hits that are affected by returning hits. Approval rate is only 95%. I'm sure it is a typo by the requester.

    I still only have about 800 hits under my belt so I can't do these. I probably wouldn't even be looking at it since I would be doing Rubin's instructor hits.

    This survey feels a lot like a PTSD screening. And by a lot, I mean exactly like it.

    It's not just you. Even those with a million approved hits can't do these.

    Description: In this survey you'll read 24 short stories (three sentences each) and judge whether a particular sentence was mentioned in these stories or not. This task takes about 15 minutes to complete and requires concentration.
    Reward: $0.50

    Took 10 mins. Most of that time for me was figuring out the instructions, but I am tired right now so that was most likely my problem.

    Edit: if you did any of the other 3 Reading short stories and judging sentences 1a, 2a, or 2b, then you can't do this one.
