You scored 92% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 80% 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!

I think that some of the answers to the questions are actually all of the above as opposed to just one of the options presented.

There is an answer key posted on the page as well so you can see where you may have gone wrong.

You have an extremely good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of each of these three levels' 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.

i couldnt care less about punctuation, obviously, but i absolutely cannot stand people mixing up words like you and you are, basically, by using the contraction where it does NOT belong.

not to mention the "than/then" problem. i have been pointing that one out since about second grade. i thought i was absolutely crazy when i saw everything with "then" when it was a comparison that should have had "than." i finally asked a teacher, and i was told that most of the population was, in fact, pretty much unable to use "than" and "then" in their proper places.

You can get 40/40 "right" and not get a perfect score. On the "awhile/while/for a while" question, a/b/c are each 1 point and d is 3 points.
