That's a Fail, Unfortunately...
Grammar is always one of the more annoying aspects of proper English, but to write and speak well, one must get to know it! Unfortunately, you scored 5 or less on your test, which means you have much to learn, or perhaps wasn't paying attention? Grammar does require some attention and thought for most, and so we would recommend having a look at the answers below or retaking it.
You scored less than half correct. This isn't a total fail, but it isn't a pass either. According to your scores you still have quite a bit of grammar to learn. Either that or you were not really focused. We believe that if you made it here you probably could have made it further, so how about retaking the quiz and trying again? Perhaps after a rest. If not, how about looking at your mistakes below to learn from them for our next English quiz?
Congrats! You got half to about 3/4 of the test correct. You definitely know your grammar basics, and probably enjoy the occasional read, even though you still have quite a few mistakes. We believe you could probably ace this test if you got this far. You definitely have good English, and so perhaps after a little rest you can probably ace this test!
