Confused. On another site, I learned that personal pronouns are not used with body parts, ie les pieds vs mes pieds. What’s correct? Thanks.

Other types of "Si" clausesI'm looking for further information on the other types of "Si" clauses. L'imparfait+conditionnel is just one type. What about "Si" clauses that are placed in the past--e.g. "If you had studied harder, you would have passed the test". Another type: "If you're able, come visit me."

imperfect tenseI am in Canada trying to get my french levels for work and they do not teach or use the french imperfect tense here. How do I skip these types of questions without it impacting my score? Do I simply skip? Will the program keep recommending these areas to study and keep adding them to my tests?

Après que + l'indicatifJust a thought. After “ Après que“, you use an indicative tense. Since the 1st, 2nd and 3rd person singular for “réussir“ is the same for both the present tense and the simple past tense. These two tenses are both indicative tenses, one present tense and the other past tense. Could “J'étais soulagée après que tu réussis ton exam“ also be considered a correct answer in this example?
