Verb tense
The following sentences contain five verb tense errors and I am not sure if my answers are correct. Can you help me?
Harvard psychologist Henry Murray has developed the Thematic Apperception Test in the 1930s. The test consists of a set of pictures depicting ambiguous scenes that may be interpreted in different ways. In this test, a subject had been asked to tell a story about the scene, what led up to these events, and what the eventual outcome had been. Murry believed that the stories that people tell revealed aspects of their own personalites.
my suggestions.
has developed--> developed
consists--> consisted
had been asked-->were asked
had been--> were
tell revealed-> had told
