<gives beautifully polished apple to teacher>
20/20 for me

Another apple for teacher.

Question 20 is wrong, by the way. It lacks an apostrophe and a full stop.

Ah, must be something about the swots being earlybirds. (20/20 here too).

Thank goodness - thought it was a news quiz! 20/20 for me too. I noticed the lack of apostrophe and period too, but there wasn't an option for that.

BTW, is good spelling an inherited trait? Of my two boys, one spells well easily; the other struggles with the simplest words. Same background, schools, etc. Very strange.

A few spelling ones and the last one.

Who needs to spell anyway?, thats what 'puters are for innit?

19/20. Fell down on one of the punctuation q's. Grrr.

I didn't get the long-lost brother hyphen. Mind you, if the words hadn't been on separate lines I probably would have noticed it, however, I decided to be honest!!

**** Off! :D

(Apparently that's worth 11% in GCSE English now!!!)

Re: How smart are you?
 

7%. The candidate lost a mark for leaving out the exclamation mark.

Re: How smart are you?
 

That why mine has an exclamation mark....do pay attention!
