Explanation:

1. The subject - verb agreement is incorrect. "As well as" is an additive phrase, and the verb should agree with the main subject "Javier", so it should be "plans" instead of "plan".
2. "Than" is used for comparison, e.g., "He is taller than me." "At that time" refers to a specific past moment. "Then" can mean next in a sequence or in that case. "In comparison with" is similar to "than" for showing differences or similarities between things.
3. The correct punctuation for the quote should be: Colin Powell reported, "I was born in Harlem, raised in the South Bronx, went to public school, got out of public college, went into the Army, and then I just stuck with it."
4. A soliloquy is a speech in a play where a character speaks their thoughts aloud while alone on stage, revealing their inner feelings and intentions.
5. Amherst College would be a better choice. Professors at Amherst spend more time in the classroom, providing personal attention. Since the student doesn't like math and MIT is known for science and technology (which often involve math), Amherst is more suitable.

Answer:

1. The verb "plan" should be "plans" for subject - verb agreement.
2. "Than" for comparison; "at that time" for past moment; "then" for sequence or in that case; "in comparison with" for showing differences/similarities.
3. Colin Powell reported, "I was born in Harlem, raised in the South Bronx, went to public school, got out of public college, went into the Army, and then I just stuck with it."
4. A speech in a play where a character reveals inner thoughts while alone on stage.
5. Amherst College because professors spend more time in the classroom and it is less math - focused compared to MIT.
