The Commonly Confused Words Test

Monday, March 28, 2005

Amazing! According to this test I am an English Genius. It was not a surprise to see that I scored a perfect 100%, actually, on the advanced sections. What was shocking was that I scored in the embarrassingly-low 80s on what were supposed to be the simple sections. That, and the fact that I could perform under 90% on any section and still be considered a “genius” by this test. I wonder if that’s because I did so well or because so many others have done so poorly.

(I don’t know that “English Genius” is how I would describe someone with good skillz in the ol’ vocab department, though. Doesn’t that phrase just make you think that I’m a genius from Merrye Olde England?)
