very true mono and the same thing goes for my real name which is Ivola but somehow i always get called by something different like Viola, Inola, Evola. and i still write was as saw a lot so i am sure mono isnt offended b/c when I first joined I called him a she. I thought mono was a girl which I felt awful for.

BBC's English Test

BBC's Math Test

Very basic questions but the kind of things my students struggle with usually.

I got 19/20 on the Maths, I didn't feel like looking up what a stratified sample was...

I'm afraid of what I would get on English.

Interesting tests to dust off the school academics.
On the English test, surprisingly, I got 20/20; but on the math test, I earned 17/20.

thanks to the help of the most useful option on my mobile phone, that is the calculator, I got an amazing 12/20 on the maths one... there were some questions I even refused to think about and I got 3 of them right by clicking randomly LOL.
I hate maths and maths hate me, and I'm proud of it :D

And yaaay I got 20/20 on English (I would have been disappointed otherwise). It's funny cos on those tests the awfully difficult words are always latin-based therefore terribly similar to Italian words, and the misspelled ones where moslty the kind of mistakes that only natives can make. [SPOILER ;)] Though I learnt not long ago that accommodation has 2 m's... ;)

aie, the sun dislikes my residence also, we got frost here, killing most of what we didn't already cover in the garden...fall hast come to slay the green tidings of summer, and sits like a fire burning ready to consume't all in its firey spectacle, a consumtion that'll burn out quickly leave bare whit ash int's place.

"Two Cots and two Matresses in an accommodation" is what I always tell my students who have problem with the word 'accommodation'! :)

The most unfair thing that can happen to a student is to get ill a week (where you still need to study) before an exam. Of course, it has to happen to me! :(
