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.
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!
