You're getting there, I've done some research into answer 4(I answered no) but technically it could be yes though not apparent in all the one's I've seen!!

Only 2 to go but I'll ignore 17 and 18

Says amphibians are in phylum chordata and see #16.
Originally posted by @vendaMy sources leave only the toads and caecilians but one source says toads are a kind of frog. But both look like chordates to me. So I’m out of guesses.

I thought you were there with 14 when I answered "yes" to do you undergo metamorphosis but then you lost it a bit again.
Perhaps a re wording of 14 would give you the answer.
Sorry about the chordate clue but when you see the answer you'll realise why I said no

You are - symmetrical, subject to metamorphosis, amphibian.
You are not - warm-blooded, reptile, insect, fish, shellfish, spider, worm, beetle, frog, bird.
You may be - a freshwater-dwelling species, a species which can fly (but not a bird or butterfly), a toad.
Are any of my three statements incorrect in any way?

Are you a tadpole?

Are you a tadpole?
A tadpole.Well done
I obviously new a tadpole would eventually develop a backbone but not at the tadpole stage which is why I answered no to the chordata question.
Consider if the animal was a human embryo and the question was "do you have eyes"? wouldn't the answer be "no" ?
