For each type of the conditional, type one got omission 46 errors (17,76%), misformation 19 errors (7.33%), addition 7 errors (2.7%), misorderin 1 error (0.38%), on type two got misformation 62 errors (23.93%), addition 11 errors (4.24%), and omission 10 errors(3.86%), on type three misformation 85 errors (32.81%),  and omission 18 errors(6.94%).
