Upon reviewing the answer key, it seems that I didn't see all of the questions :confused:. I may have accidentally skipped one or two. :doh:

I'm going to have to look at the key because I have to know what I missed. :doh:

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!

Advanced

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!

My results were kind of pathetic. I'm pretty sure I missed some easy ones.

I do have to admit I chuckled on this one:
Speeding in your car is _____

1. risky
2. risque



The stuff I actually tripped up on:
the first me/I question, but not the second
farther/further
awhile - ok, I didn't trip up on this, I just didn't say All of the above.
hanged/hung
affect/effect on the bombing question, but I'll admit that if I took more time I probably would have chosen the right answer
phenomena/phenomenon, I think, can't remember which I put down on that one.

Generally, I approached this using the same amount of time I would if I were typing up a post here quickly, rather than constantly checking myself. When I speak I don't know how much of that comes through - my speech is very informal.

Yeah I don't think I'd give school much credit.

Debating dog evolution and the ethics/logistics of BSL on a dog forum at age 15 is the way to go apparently.

He __________ to the banquet with Naomi and __________.

gone / I gone / me
went / I
went / me

The key to knowing if it is proper to use "me" or "I" is simply to say the sentence without the middle clause "with Naomi and".

"He went to the banquet with I."
or
"He went to the banquet with me."

Clearly the first one is not proper, hence the sentence correctly done is "He went to the banquet with Naomi and me."
