You want the sentence to be true, so choose the correct word knowing that otherString is set in the parent onCreate() method.

Simply put, is the aString being set before or after otherString(which is declared in the parent class called Activity)? The answer is AFTER because the parent method (super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)) is being called first and once it is done in the parent function it will come back to the MainActivity onCreate function and continue. Always read code line by line...from top to bottom.
aString = "This variable is set AFTER the 'otherString' variable in Activity";
I hope this helps.
