I find alot of mistakes in many patterns. Usually I wonder if the designer didn't have a group of separate people make the pattern before marketing it. And when I am taking a class I expect that the teacher has made the item and marked down any errors found before the first class. To be honest, I won't take classes again from a teacher who didnt give out corrects by the first class. I don't normally buy kits, however bought one on a shop hop. The fabric wasn't long enough to make the border the way the directions told you to. If I hadn't caught it first, I would have ruined fabric by cutting the way the directions said. No more kits for me.
