HA! Take THAT!



The Commonly Confused Words Test

Advanced
You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 72% Expert!
You have an extremly good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of each of these three levels's questions correct. This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.


It's bugging me to know what I missed, though.

I still want to know who you have to fuck to get genius. There must be a bar on the Expert level you have to hit.

I know what I missed, but I can't remember what it was now. When I get to the questions where I'm saying to myself, 'Oh, I always look this up to be sure...."

[livejournal.com profile] croaky managed to score Genius, with scores lower than mine except for 77% on the Expert. I'm guessing that if you get over 75% there it rates you Genius.

Yeah, I think so too. Because I've done far better on the lower rungs than some people I know who got Genius. (A dork am I, for keeping track or caring, of course.)

Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!

*Preens herself a bit*

But you're right, it's annoying not knowing what I missed.

You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 88% Expert!

You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go!
Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!


Can I just state that I DO NOT AGREE with some of the questions on this test. Any decent grammatician will tell you that there is no difference between toward and towards; semi-colon vs. colon is a matter of personal preference in some cases.

Ah, yeah, and the first time (shut up! it was only two times!) I got the same expert score but only 93% on intermediate and advanced: that still made me a Genius. So, it's probably just your expert score that determines final ranking rather than some sort of overall thing.
