The Commonly Confused Words Test

I scored the following:

82% beginner 100% intermediate 92% expert and 72% advanced
I still can't type worth a darn though. :eek:
 
Advanced
You scored 86% Beginner, 86% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 66% Expert!
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.
Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!

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!

Not bad for a 225lb yobo with a skin head that left school at 16.5 lol

I was going to take the test, but got distracted by the link to the author's personal ad. I wondered why the site was called "OKCupid". She's pretty dang cute.

yeah, i ended up taking like 43 tests, mostly about history, alcohol and sex. way to burn about 5 hours.
 
advanced too; but if i'm so smart why'd I sell a knife for $80 that I paid $100 for just 2 days prior/pryor?
 
It appears that even if you're a complete retard, you still score at least "Very Literate". You guys should have all aced the first three sections. I'll admit that the Expert section lives up to its billing. It's quite tricky.

I'm going to see what happens if you put in all wrong answers...


Ok, it is possible to do worse than that:

You scored 7% Beginner, 0% Intermediate, 0% Advanced, and 29% Expert!
This score does not reflect an inability to converse intelligibly, but it does, however, reflect your inability to determine the proper spelling and/or uses of many commonly confused words of the English language. There is no reason to feel bad though. They are commonly confused, so you're not the only one!
Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!


I think the test is buggy because I couldn't do worse than 7% in Beginner, even though I did the test twice with the answer key. Funny how 29% is the lowest possible score in Expert...
 
Advanced
You scored 85% Beginner, 85% Intermediate, 93% Advanced, and 64% Expert!

not bad for someone still in high school...

That's a pretty clunky sentence, especially for someone who is presumably an English snob. Still, I respect the fact that she cares enough about proper word usage to go and write her own test. Too bad she ain't hot...

I thought the test was fairly well put together. I did feel that her "correct" answer to the question about water flowing to the ocean was not the only correct answer. While water does naturaly flow through channels, it also flows through man made canals. Her answer implies that water in canals just sits. I can assure her that there are places in this world where the sentance: The water from the river flows through the canal and into the ocean, is both accurate and gramaticly correct.

I can write but I can't grasp simple concepts, play well with others or use scissors properly.

Must be all of that paste that I used to eat :) :D :rolleyes:
