your inconsistency in your answers is making see you (myschool) as not trustworthy, how would you have a different answer for 2004 and now in 2005 you're putting a different answer for repeated questions. in your 2004 you gave the answer to this same question as 'B', which is 'WANT' now in 2005, you're giving it as 'Difficult' and i have seen in many other places.... this very bad... please be sure of your answers, many peoples future depends on it, don't take it as one big joke. As for me i can't continue with your inconsistency, I AM OUT...

I kindly Suppose the suitable answer to this question should be "WANT". Because Some people who don't live in poverty also suffer difficulty. Thanks.
