    For the first quiz I got an 80%, which is pretty shocking since I make grammar mistakes near constantly when typing to other people.

    As for the commentary, I am reading that now.

    For the McGraw Hill quiz I got a 90%, but there is still more to learn.

    My first grade was a 60%; I didn't watch where I put the apostrophe. :^(

    Ew, I can't believe I got lower than Aubrey.
    Even though I can since that's what always ends up happening in CW.
    80%, boy-0.

    I got a 70% on the quiz... I felt I already knew what there was to know about apostrophes but guess not.

    I recieved a 80% on the quiz which suprised me. It seems that I messed up on the one's that are often misprinted, like Lynne Truss discussed in her book! I answered the one that was supposed to answer as attorneys general and the one with the year; 1950s. Have a bit more to learn!

    I got a 60% on the quiz but it's only the beginning and it's a very hot day. Hopefully I do better on the next ones.

    Well, in the long run I guess I could have done worst. I got 80%, which for me the sucks at grammar is better than I thought I might have.

    70%
    For some questions(those concerning plural possessive) I couldn't tell what they were asking for. My mistake.

    I got a 60% but it's still early, and I have a lot to learn.
