"One must" sounds (to my American ear) like it's British English. Here we'd say "you have to". Is that an acceptable way to think of "hay que"?

Learning methods

Hello all, sorry if this is a long and unusal question..
Are there any professional teachers here, or professionals who have studied learning methods?
I am determined to get the very best from the software, but wonder if I am.
For example, i complete each of the "writing practice" exercises twice, back to back, which in my mind means that I am cementing my learning, but on the second run through I'm concerned that I may just have blindly memorised each answer. I do stop and research every part I get wrong if I don't see my mistake, but I'm still concerned I'm just being a parrot.
So, over to the professionals, what would you recommed for best learning practice in this software?
Thanks

Splitting direct pronoun from indirect pronoun!In the following sentence, the direct pronoun and the indirect pronoun are linked to different verbs. I, for one, have never seen this construction before " me permitan hacerla". Is there a grammar test on kwizik for this

Sin embargo, lo que más me importa es que la empresa de la entrevista sea comprensiva y que me permitan hacerla en otro momento

Compared to "quánto más"

In the question:

"____ vamos envejeciendo, nos van importando menos las cosas banales."

I see that conforme works, but why not "Cuánto más"? Is it that the "menos" should be in front? As:

"Cuánto más vamos envejeciendo, menos nos van importando las cosas banales."

Thanks!
