We want to cover everything that doesn't have microfilming option:
1. Views recorded often --> yes (More than 10 years)
2. Views recorded often ---> No (More than 10 years)
3. 5-10 years ---> Digitized
4. Less than 5 years (Both the option)

Hence, 1,3,4 needs to be covered
1. Views recorded more often (Yes) (will cover Point 1)
2. Atmost 10 years (Will cover 3 and 4)­

I got many consecutive questions (4-5 Qs) wrong in the mock, but I still encounter this 805+ questions in a row...
I am now doubting GMAT's algorithm.
