This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.

as one who did moderately well on the test, I would just add that English is full of words that sound the same and have different meanings. We all see it on here. The test might catch a lot of us, except for Super Pea (You go , Gal), but it can also help us communicate.

English 101:

Its and It's: Like a lot of things in English, it is bassakwards. Its is possive (its mine) while It's is a contraction of it is.

Your and You're: Your means it belongd to you while You're is a contraction of you are.

These were two of the examples that we all had trouble with in school.

Rather than, or is it then, being a nagging old grouch, do some digging and find out for yourselves.

It's very easy to get caught by many of these "commonly confused" words. I was very lucky to have amazing English teachers in both High School & University, who took time to help us learn the proper uses of many of these words. I try to read often, in order to keep my reading comprehension levels as high as I can. This has many benefits for me, including better communication both personally & through work/school.
