Why it says "docteur ès sciences mathématiques" rather than "docteur en sciences mathématiques"? Does it have different meaning?

  I found this on the Lawless French website.   Which is correct?

What is the exact difference between Imparfait and Plus que parfait (PQP). Some people say for 'had', we have to used PQP but some people say that for 'had', even imparfait can be used, but exactly in which situations we have to use imparfait and PQP, nobody is able to explain logically. Anybody, reply please...

Are there any fixed verbs for pronominal, or any verb can be a pronominal verb ? Somebody, reply please.

Merci en avance !

Are any of these alternative answers possible?

1. Je me souviens toujours de la première fois ... (In place of encore - I often have trouble with encore and toujours in this context of still, but in some cases I believe they can both be equally correct?)

2. Elle a passé la plupart de sa carrière ... (in place of la majorité or l’essentiel)

3. ... dont elle a souffert pendant toute sa vie (in place of ... don’t elle a souffert tout au long de sa vie)

Thanks

I thought that in french, nouns must always have direct or indirect articles. But in the last sentence of this exercice, "cuillère et fourchette" aren't given any.

To à qui and à laquelle mean the same thing and are interchangeable?

What is the difference in meaning between 1. La fille à qui je sense

and 

La fille à laquelle je pense.

Why is the Imparfait used here instead of the Passe Compose?
