Summary:
Suppose $G$ is a subgroup of the reduced abelian $p$-group $A$. The following two dual results are proved: $(*)$ If $A/G$ is countable and $G$ is an almost totally projective group, then $A$ is an almost totally projective group. $(**)$ If $G$ is countable and nice in $A$ such that $A/G$ is an almost totally projective group, then $A$ is an almost totally projective group. These results somewhat strengthen theorems due to Wallace (J. Algebra, 1971) and Hill (Comment. Math. Univ. Carol., 1995), respectively.
