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!

Okay, that's just weird, 86 on beginner, followed by 100 in the next two categories. :huh:

I'll blame it on studying for my physics exam... my poor, poor neurons.

I’m actually disappointed that I didn’t score 100% across the board. Time to brush off my old textbooks.

100% on everything but expert. I got two "wrong": I said it was OK to say "to whoever" or "to whomever", and I never bothered to learn the difference between "farther" and "further" because it's not important. In other words, on the questions about purely prescriptive distinctions that have nothing to do with the current state of the language in common practice, I went "Gah, schoolmarmery, I wonder which one they want me to say" and in those particular cases I guessed wrong. But on the "can you spell stuff, lolz" questions, I was fine. XD

Eh... I'm a little disappointed in myself. Oh well; I just took a residential immersion course in French, so I won't be too picky about my rapidly deteriorating English skills. =(

I was never too big on proper grammar. As long as you know what someone's saying who cares?

I love grammar! Nothing makes me more excited than reading through Beowulf and picking out the dative and accusative cases!

I also love vocabulary and am currently trying to bring back vocabulation as an alternative to diction. In my opinion, diction is what one uses to write a technical manual. Vocabulation is more poetic (and possibly long-winded :) ).
