Corrections

What We Got Wrong, and How We Check

Every RES question names the authority it comes from and the date somebody last read it. These are the corrections that reading the Singapore bank produced.

Every question has been read

Not scanned by a script — read, in full, by a reviewer working a whole jurisdiction end to end in one sitting.

Mechanical gates read one question at a time, so a keyed answer that is wrong on the law — or that contradicts what another question in the same bank teaches — passes every one of them. That is what the reading is for, and it is why the numbers above are tracked in a ledger the build checks rather than asserted here.

Corrections worth naming

Each of these is checkable against the authority beside it. Each is also a case where the plausible answer is the wrong one, which is why they survived as long as they did.

WhatAuthorityWhat changed
Singapore stamp duty arithmetic Stamp Duties Act 1929, First Schedule A Singapore buyer's stamp duty question shipped a total of S$84,600 beside an explanation whose own bands added to S$89,600. Both gates now recompute the arithmetic through one shared function rather than two copies of it.
Singapore duplicates Read end to end, 2026-08-07 Seven questions that duplicated another question in the same bank had passed every mechanical gate. Two of them shared a keyed answer of six or seven words, which is below the threshold any similarity check had been set to. Reading found them; no counter could.

What we do not claim

Reviewed against a cited source is not the same as independently verified by a licensed practitioner in every jurisdiction, and we do not claim the second. Where a question turns on doctrine that primary authority does not settle, it is recorded as unsettled and kept out of first-session content rather than quietly keyed one way.

Some citations still point at an agency page rather than a provision. Those are being re-sourced, and the count is tracked rather than hidden: the build enforces a ceiling that may fall and may never rise.

About corrections

How do I report a question you have got wrong?

Email support@freeholdprep.com with the question and what you believe the right answer is. A report that names the provision is fastest, but it is not required - if you think a question is wrong, that is worth telling us either way.

What does the verification date on a question mean?

It is the date somebody last opened the cited source and checked that it still says what the question says it says. It is not the date the question was written. Rules change, and a question that was right two years ago and is quietly wrong today is worse than no question at all.

Does every question really carry a source?

Yes - all 7084 of them, each with the authority, a pinpoint reference where the citation names one, and the date it was checked. The build fails if any question lacks one, so this is enforced rather than intended.

Why publish your own mistakes?

Because an answer key nobody can check is worth nothing, and every product in this category ships one. A correction log is the only claim about accuracy that a reader can verify without taking our word for anything.
