I've been struggling with this lesson for a while now and keep getting the answers wrong in tests.  I think I have it now but the additional research I've had to do suggests there are issues with this lesson. 

(1) The heading is a bit misleading, causing me to think for a long time that "if" made the phrase conditional,  whereas of course it's "would" that does that.  This caused me to think the phrase order was "Si [le conditionnel] (then) [L'imparfait]", whereas it's the opposite for most of the examples. The true order, I realise know, is "Si [l'imparfait] (then) [le conditionnel]", or "[le conditionnel], si [l'imparfait]".

(2) More importantly, the lesson does not mention that the tense of the "if" phrase can vary depending on the likelihood of the "result" phrase. This lesson is focused only on the unlikely outcome and does not discuss or even mention the likely or impossible outcomes as far as I can see.  Is there a reason for this? 

Is there a spelling error in the following?

One of the things that continues to confuse me is when to use à , sur, dans when working with dates ( dans l’après midi - ) , sur La  Canebière. Etc because sometimes they use au, à la  and they are correcting me . Is there a lesson I can review to clarify this?

Hello.
Would "au cours des années" be considered correct too? If not, what would be the difference between "au fil des ans/années" and "au cours des années" ?
Thanks.

I  achieved 100 % in A1 level, then I achieved 100 % in A2 level and then in B1 level. But when I started working on B2 level I found out that my A1 and A2 are not 100% any more. Why? Is it normal practice or something went wrong?
