Dear teachers,

Please read:

1.In any conditions
2.At any conditions

You will choose (1) or (2) or both are correct?If both are correct, what is the difference btw (1) and (2)?

Thanks

Let me see if I am right.

I think 'in any conditions' is correct.

Waiting for teachers to clarify it :)

.
(1) is correct
(2) would most likely be found in combination with a phrasal verb such as look at, hint at, laugh at, etc. 8)
