i feel like rolanda can be blamed for thinking that the yard is bigger, when she knows the property lines start 20ft from the sidewalk lol. could argue she was looking at a smaller house. how else did she think the yard was bigger?
poor tom got the scolding. all he was doing was pointing out the rule.
One thing that could help Tom's argument is saying that "Rolanda is assuming all streets are straight." Because a different house could have a smaller yard but, because of the curvature of the road, is farther than 20 feet from the street. So it doesn't lose any of its property to the city and it's "smaller" yard has more land for private use.
u know what gets into my head sometimes? seeing the length of the video. im thinking, if the video is rly long (8, 10+ minutes) the question must be harder so when im answering the question, im making it more difficult for myself because i think it's a harder question. but for this question, i purposefully didn't let myself see the time duration for this video and i answered the question faster than the target time.
it's rly the little things that screw with ur head with prepping for this exam
I really have panic tendencies, I know an answer does not seem right but I choose it because I'm running out of time or I don't immediately see an answer that is perfect. I need to calm down.
If the dimensions of the yards are not all the same, the 20 foot set back changes the area of the yards in a way that is not uniform. For that reason, I think the high heals example is misleading.
Got this question in just over a minute and could've gotten it sooner if I didn't map it out (I always do it as practice). If you're struggling to comprehend this one the parallel that JY uses is perfect. Great lesson!
#feedback it would be helpful to see how he solves these questions in the target time. I find his explanations beneficial but when it comes to answering questions, I'm unable to fully diagram in the target time.

Rolanda gotta drop Tom
Am I the only one who thought that the Oak Ave property was not in Prairieview?
i feel like rolanda can be blamed for thinking that the yard is bigger, when she knows the property lines start 20ft from the sidewalk lol. could argue she was looking at a smaller house. how else did she think the yard was bigger?

website not working or its real slow. and it keeps reloading randomly.
this might be my best section yet
got it in 20 seconds and felt smart until I looked at the difficulty level.

44 secs
got it in 44 seconds :D
This is an easy one, but I took too long :(
I got this in 55 seconds and they still said I am too slow :(

What a strange question
If the dimensions of the yards are not all the same, the 20 foot set back changes the area of the yards in a way that is not uniform. For that reason, I think the high heals example is misleading.
Come on Tom!
this was tougher than a 2 star

i feel like no matter how much i practice flaw questions i don't get any better :/
I really like the segments where we phrase the correct answer in different ways. It helps
Although the explanations are great. I think an explanation geared to the target time will be a bit more helpful
