What is your answer?

With Kant's theory that the two sources of knowledge are sensibility and understanding,

    { 1 } - through understanding objects are given to us and through sensibility objects are thought.
    { 2 } - what is given in consciousness is a combination of a posteriori forms and a priori matter of sense intuition.
    { 3 } - the ideas of reason, God, the immortality of the soul, and the world as totality do not give true knowledge because there is no corresponding sense experience.
    { 4 } - sense data is formed first by the concepts of the understanding and then by the forms of space and time.
    { 5 } - shows that Kant agrees with empiricists that all knowledge is given empirically.
    { 6 } - the concepts of the understanding may be properly applied to something that is not sensed.

No, the opposite is true for him; objects are given through sensibility and thought through understanding. See p. 229.

The reverse is true, the forms are a priori and sense intuition a posteriori.

3 is correct!

    { 2 } - what is given in consciousness is a combination of a posteriori forms and a priori matter of sense intuition.

    { 6 } - the concepts of the understanding may be properly applied to something that is not sensed.

Knowledge for Kant requires sense experience as well as structures of the mind.

No, the forms of space and time come first.

No, the a priori dimension of knowledge is given through understanding, not empirically.

No, consequently they may not be applied to God, the world as a totality, and the soul. See p. 230.
