Hi, i would like to make a comment about 2 questions.

Q2) The correct answer wasn't part of the choice, and I thought that there must be a mistake in the question, so assuming the 7th letter from the left, I gave the answer I.

Q5) Grandfather and Grandmother could be on the mother's side also. You have stated the answer for fathers side. On mothers side, Grandmother has to be B, which means Grandfather is A. So the answer should be, both can be true.

Please reply if you find something wrong in what I've stated.

Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
Adrian Pinto
