Examples of the test being wrong: Quote: 4. I wish you would study for __________ test. a. you're b. your c. Either a or b d. Neither a nor b The correct answer is your. Points: a=0, b=1, c=1, d=2 What. Quote: 14. It is difficult for her to __________ criticism. a. accept b. except c. Either a or b d. Neither a nor b The correct answer is accept. Points: a=1, b=0, c=0, d=0 Definitions: accept - v. tr. to receive; to admit; to endure; to consent except - v. tr. to leave out Why can't you say it's difficult for her to leave out criticism? Quote: 33. Please stay __________ a. a while b. awhile c. for a while d. All of the above The correct answer is All of the above. Points: a=1, b=1, c=1, d=3 Definitions: awhile - adv. for a short time while - n. a period of time Explanation: Because the word awhile is an adverb, it cannot be used in a prepositional phrase. "for awhile" would be incorrect. Since while is a noun, it can be used with or without the preposition for. Therefore, all three are correct. "Stay a while" would literally mean to make a while stop. It would be the d.o. of the verb stay. No dice. Quote: 34. He is __________ along in his academic program __________ he thought. a. farther / than b. farther / then c. further / than d. further / then The correct answer is further / than. Points: a=1, b=0, c=2, d=1 Explanation: farther - comparative used for physcial distance further - comparative used for nonphysical, metaphorical advancement In fact, their own resource states: "Although some usage guides insist that only farther should be used for physical distance, farther and further have been used interchangeably throughout much of their histories." :/

You have a good understanding of intermediate and advanced commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of the intermediate and advanced level questions correct. The puzzling part of your test result is the fact that you only answered 75% or less correct in the beginner section. Fascinating.
