Hi there
Sorry gals for us to say without knowing the question or answer ?
There are no right or wrong answers its about how your condition affects your ability to do the tasks -
Hello and welcome to the community @gypsycaril
Not necessarily no, there's the rest of the assessment to consider. It's common to not be overly delighted with the answers you give, or to forget to mention certain points. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
