Grammar and punctuation quiz!

[perksie]

I think we all have our moments when we read and see weird  grammar and punctuation, but here is a little test if you want to find out how good you are.

No cheating, 14 questions:

I scraped 11 correct with a bit of luck.

I didn't realise it was such a large amount:( Pretty sure I'm in the minus figures now:D

To be honest after reading some people's posts, I'm pretty sure some of my brain cells just commit suicide 😞

Made a silly mistake and got 12.

13 right myself.

Well done, any more takers?

Brilliant scores:)

I ran a group test on these sort of things using that specific test in my a level sociology paper. The mean score was 6 with 143 people having taken the various tests.

Proved my point that education was placed much lower in the priorities of the younger generations than fitting in with friends/knowing slang.

"You scored 9 out of a possible 14"

A bit below expectation, to be honest 😞

If that was the first quiz, that's a good score.

Everyone is being very honest.
