How do you know when to use favori as opposed to préféré?

As I'm pretty sure they both mean favourite - does it matter on the context?

Durant vs. Pendant?

I don't understand what the difference between durant and pendant are. The lesson puts them together and doesn't say if there is a difference.

Vrai vs. fauxI think it would be helpful to point out in this lesson that vrai vs. faux do not behave (placement) in the same was as other opposites such as grand/petit, bon/mauvais etc.

I have a questionAt the beginning of this lesson you said "ATTENTION: it never means to pass (succeed) an exam." But in the kwizzes youre marking it as correct in "Il a passé son examen". I took a screen shot (http://i.imgur.com/gDxj3dx.png). By any chance do you mean He passed his exam (e.g. to the teacher, to the person infront of him)? Its kind of confusing when youre using the same word in different contexts.

Rapidement vs vite So, rapidement and vite are synonymous; however when I typed in vite for Henri runs quickly, it was marked as incorrect. Because they are synonymous, I feel that «vite» should be included as a correct response as well as rapidement.
