Wot me? An Ethics Boy ? ;)

I didn't say you were ethical...nor a boy...Just a big brainiac. Nice to know all your hard work paid off, and they didn't punish you for having read/written too much!

It's snowing again. Drive safely.

I think you've been short-changed. Apparently I am an "English Genius" rather than advanced, but your scores are better than mine!

Quite apart from the fact you aren't English, Gavin ;)

I allowed the Genius bit to cancel out the insult ;-)

Or is it a genius _for_ someone who's English? ;)

An ingenuous reference engendered to the genesis of geniality, forsooth?

So it's OK for me to get

English Genius
You scored 100% Beginner, 93% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 77% Expert!
You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go!

then? Not bad for a mere scientist... :)

Re: Beginner's Luck?

[ggreig]

Yay! Go Science! (and you really are English too :-)

I know- I think they might rate certain answers as genius level, so that despite earning a certain score, if you miss that particular question, you are merely advanced. This is a common ploy to never allow people to be in the 100 percentile in standardised exams such the SAT. A couple of the questions were quite colloquial, and biased by age. Maybe they factored in my gender as well, *presuming* that a lass would have a better command of the English language. It might be a test to take it under different conditions with the same answers?
