6 questions is just too much... I gave up on BCLP after seeing it was 5 Qs 😂

Good luck! I understand the pain. I'm always stuck at competency questions (or whatever they're called), the ones where you have to describe a time you showed [INSERT] despite [INSERT] 😂 😭

BCLP is worse because their test is automatic. If you don’t meet the test benchmark they won’t even read your app. Nasty stuff lmao. Imagine writing 2,000 words for nothing omg. 😂​

Would 100% recommend for romance (better than hinge)🙄
