(And since the quiz made me think of it, here's a link to my semi-annual spelling and usage rant. Consider it ranted for the next 6 months or so. ;D

I am only 73% expert, and I'm pissed. I'm more inclined to think there's something wrong with the test than that I made more than one mistake. Actually, I'm not inclined to believe that I made any mistakes, but I don't have time to look it up. :P

If you were multitasking, chances are you just hit the wrong radio buttons. You can check the answer key here: http://shortredhead78.blogspot.com/. And she says sometimes the quiz doesn't calculate correctly: "This is how it works: I wrote the questions, and I assigned points to each correct question. The program (or whatever it is called) on OKCupid calculates your score based on your answers and the points that I assigned to each answer. Sometimes its calculations are wrong, giving you 0% when you answered all of them correctly in reality. I am very sorry about this; however, there is nothing I can do about it! That is one of the main reasons I created this blog - so you can check your answers. Please don't get mad at me and post the fact that OKCupid scored your test wrong."

At least one of the questions in the Expert section is a trick question. O and I ran across it in SAT prep. *g*

Ooo, which one?

The "awhile" one. It's kind of getting you to go with "a while" but the correct answer is (I assume, since I got everything right) d, all of the above. (I don't agree with this, and I didn't agree on the prep test, but that's now "correct.")
