    Exclamation Subjunctive...

    Hello out there!

    I have a problem with using subjunctive!
    Is the rule of secuencing the tenses needed when we use subjunctive?

    Egx: She looked as if she were Angelina Jolie? or She looked as if she had been Angelina Jolie?

    Please help! I will have to pass the exam to go to university!
