Apparently, just one percent of people can pass this grammar quiz

grammar quiz

How well do you know you’re grammar, though?

If you didn’t notice the clear and painful mistake in the above lead sentence, than probably not all that well.

And if that’s the case then you definitely won’t pass the following grammar quiz put together by YouTube star, Lucy Bella Earl.

She has a set of 10 grammar based questions and according to her, only 10 in 10,000 students are able to get full marks.

We did take the quiz ourselves and leave with a very respectable 8 or 7 out of 10 (depending on who you ask), but whatever guys, the quiz is difficult.

We are not the one percent and we have come to terms with that.

You should too.

Here are Lucy’s questions. Keep your score as you go along and the correct answers will be revealed at the end of the piece.

Good luck (don’t you dare score higher than 8).

1. Who or Whom?

2. Affect or effect?

3. That or which?

4. Is or are?

5. Who’s or whose?

6. Had or would’ve?

7. Lay or lie?

8. I or me?

9. Less or fewer?

10. Whom or who>

Hard, isn’t it? Yeah we told you.

And here’s the answers:

1. Whom

2. Effect

3. That

4. Is

5. Whose

6. Had

7. Lie

8. Me

9. Fewer

10. Whom

So, how many’d you get?

Bet it wasn’t more than 8. Whatever.
