Hello Felin
Thanks for the correction but I don't understand the sentences:
2 a) As soon as I finished college I want to travel around Australia.
b) I didn't have time to check the composition. I handed it in as soon as I have finished it.
For me the first one refers to future events (present perfect) and the second one refers to past events (past simple).
Could you help me, please?
Thanks in advance.
