Basic punctuation - how good are you really?

15 out of 20.

Same here. Lol. And I'm pretty sure at least two of them made no sense, no matter what punctuation you put in it...typos?

11/20, meh, phd students don't need gramma do they?

[Slyer]

Interesting. Let's see how I go.

[Slyer]

Yet more proof I failed Level 3 English due to laziness, not ability.

The questions involving exclamation marks were a bit tricky, both could have been correct depending on the context.

I wondered about the exclamation mark ones, some of them it was obviously not, but some of them were statements that could use it I'm sure.

Anyways, I got 9/12 (got bored and stopped at 12)

Well done , you have passed this test.

You scored 16 out of 20.

You needed at least 16 correct answers.

You made mistakes in the following areas:
Colons: 1
Commas: 1
Commands: 2
Semi colons: 1

Some of them were WRONG anyway! Q15 for example. Every option has "The executive group support..." Group is a singular word - A group. So the verb should be "supportS"

[Slyer]

What was the full sentence? Are you sure it wasn't a noun?

[Ender EnZed]

Try answering only one question. Check out the angry lightning cloud!

[Slyer]

"The executive group support the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."
There it is, you are right I believe.

[slofox]

"The executive group support the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."
There it is, you are right I believe.

Well, I reckon so...(for once)

[avgas]

Sorry I am late. I assume then that I failed this test?
(waits for the smart ones to catch on......)

[avgas]

"The executive group support the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."
There it is, you are right I believe.

"The executive group, support the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."
or
"The executive group support; the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."
or
"The executive; group support the introduction of the new course, subject to costing details."

all depending on context.

You made mistakes in the following areas:
Commas: 2

I reckon there's an argument that commas are sometimes stylistic. (Or is that sour grapes??)

[PirateJafa]

I disagree with my score. I believe that they have a dislike of the Oxford comma, which I feel is a completely childish stance to take.
