    yeah that's pretty typical, i'm just glad he didn't include international schools this time...I used to be successful in about 1 in 15 with those

    Hm, I just ended up doing the same thing. I've only done the one so far, and came here to see if anyone else was finding that the actual course names were not matching up.

    My first stab at the famous Two Lakes. Am I missing something? The answers are already there (highlighted in red). Can't be that easy. Don't want to get rejected.

    Woo! Never had a chance to do two lakes before. Those are awesome, but I only got about 15 in.

    It's all about the context. For example, I got a few 20/20. Some referred to the tv show, some were saying "hindsight is 20/20". For unique musician/celebrity names though, it's really easy.

    No it's a fine idea. There are some I give up on though

    I did the same. For example, one was "Computer Security". They didn't have anything by that name, but they did have "Topics in Resilient and Secure Computer Systems" so I used that and left him feedback to hopefully email me if I shouldn't do that. I didn't do a whole lot, maybe 20, just because I wasn't sure if that was the way to go.

    For those of you who are able to grab a lot of the good batches like Two Lakes, do you accept a bunch of them at once and then work through them? I got to two of them this time, ha!

    it's just a bit ambiguous. i mean, i just did one on organic chemistry, which is usually a 2 semester course at most schools, plus there are more advanced courses, graduate courses, special topics seminars, labs, introductory courses for non-majors... blegh. whatever, i'm gonna plug away at these, they're pretty easy and quite lucrative...

    Yes I accept hits until I get a captcha but I don't work on those until all the hits run out.
