He's said there's three stages. He's told you what he considers the three stages to be. His definition may not be correct, but it's what he's using for the parameters of the assignment. Go with what he's said. 18. He may be wrong, and maybe based upon what he's said if his definition were correct it would be 24... but he's the lecturer, he's probably also the marker. Don't make it harder for yourself... do the work required... and do it better than everyone... without going out there to look for another 6 songs (which might just annoy him, as he might see you as someone who fails to listen to what he wants done). Time to find 6 less songs, means more time to work on finding the best other songs anyway.
No, not rude at all. I can see how it might seem that he did answer the question and he did eventually do it directly. The assignment was worded quite specifially- we'd have to find 6 somgs for every stage. It should have stated 'for stage 1,2 and 3.' Early stage 1 is a stage, so I wanted to have him clearly state that it was not to be counted, so I didn't get caught out later but him asking where were my songs for that stage. After all, it's my neck if I screw it up!
I certainly didn't want to make it harder! Not to worry, it's all sorted now.
