How is your grammar???

Not bad
But you may want to think twice about pursuing a career as a copy editor.

I am the math/science type, not the english/history type. Graph that.
 
amanda-- i like your sig. 🙂


i'm a math person too, well, more of a computer person. i'm a really logical kind of person, history and english kicked my butt in high school.. which is why i havent taken any in college in the past 3 years
 
I got 8/9. I missed #7. The correct answer doesn't sound right to me because I'm so used to hearing the wrong thing. Even the answer states that it sounds pretentious, but as it is, English, especially American English, is a pretty messed up language.
 


<< Nice work!
Do you diagram sentences in your spare time? You got 9/9 correct.

w00t!

<==-- used to be a copy editor

9/9 Three years of Latin pays off. 🙂 And I just happened to look up lie/lay/laid/lied a couple weeks ago. 😀

😱 6/9

I missed the first one 'cause I clicked the wrong box. (sux alot more when I do that on real exams)

and then, yeah...#7 owned me. So did the lay/lie one. (methinks I thought too much about it)
 
Nice work!

Grammar is not my strongest subject, but I did pretty well here. 🙂

Gramma's gone. 🙂
And 8/9. I missed number 6 and I feel badly.

Heh...that was a close call for me on that one too 🙂

Had it wrong until I double-checked it

Speeling on the hand is a different story. 😉
 
I got Jeri Ryan. It should have been 8 but I clicked the wrong one on 5. I will probably always get 3 wrong in real life. The rest were easy.
