    You scored 100% Beginner, 93% Intermediate, 93% Advanced, and 100% 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!

    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'm happy with the results - I get lots of practice with vocabulary in another online community where I work as a Supervisor/Editor.

    You did pretty well. There were a bunch of questions you didn't get right, but there were a bunch you did. In all likelihood, you're an intelligent person. It's possible you don't have much reason to practice the finer points of Language and maybe you've gotten a bit rusty. Maybe you're still learning. Maybe you're a programmer, or still a student.

    Even if you do still make common mistakes when writing or speaking, you're more than capable of expressing yourself clearly, so congratulations. That's more than many people can say.

    But CT64 - where is your sporting self that loves a challenge - you are an editor and an editorship requires mastery of the English language, something which I as yet do not have.

    Regards,

    Oh CD, why did you do this? I went back to that site and started down the road to taking all sorts of tests Found out I am a "hand raiser" and generally amused myself with some of the trite musings. Good for you!
