Answer 2

While I certainly could answer all of these questions, your best bet would be to work it out for yourself and then to simply try each of them out in VB itself. You'll have better retention for the exam, if you've worked through each guess you got wrong.

It would not take very long to do that either, .5 - 1 hours total for the 25 questions.
