dear teachers,

Which of the options mean the same?

1.What a pity I went to that school.
a)I wish I had gone to that school.
b)I wish I hadn't gone to that school.

2.I'd like to be a good student.
a) I wish I had been a good student.
b) I wish I was a good student.
c) I wish I wasn't a good student.


I think 1st is b) and 2nd is c). Is that correct?

thank you in advance

!. (b)
2.(b)
(You should really use the subjunctive - I wish I were a good student).
