qu'il s'agissait de mon groupe de rock préféré -> it says europe and not rockqu'il s'agissait de mon groupe de rock préféré -> I even checked with google translate and it never ever said rock but d'europe. Can someone please confirm this ? Found other issues with this exercise as well, like eating up of alot of à and de. Why have it in the language if you are going to just eat it up, like having contractions weren't enough, now you need to eat them up as well?

Ce sera tellement drôle.

I translated this as 'Ce sera tellement rigolote' presuming we were talking about the 'farce' which is feminine. It was corrected as rigolo masculine. ?

Il faut vs Il faut que. Where do I find this discussed? I know to add "que" in the subjunctive tense, but need a rule about when.

I chose the right answer

I chose the correct answer and yet I was scored as if I had not. This is not the first time this has happened. Why does it happen and how can I correct the situation when it happens?
