30,600 for me. Loving all the "I got _______, but I'm an engineer" replies. I'd make a similar excuse if it was a math test Also, shoutout to my english teachers, whose boring classes finally paid off.
26,800, which is about average for my age, but below average for someone of my age with my SAT scores.. Which clearly means that college stunted the growth of my vocabulary.
I was surprised. After not knowing (or remembering) most of the words in the last column, I figured that I must have blown it, but it said my score was 36,900. And I'm a terrible speller. Perhaps it's my age? According to the chart comparing vocabulary and age, it pretty much levels off after age 50, so I can't see how being some distance beyond that did me much of a favor. I do read a hell of a lot, and have since I was a kid, but my number still seems high. Go figure!
38,100...but that doesn't sound right. I wonder if the results were skewed since English was technically my second language though I don't remember a time when I couldn't speak English (though my older sister swears I didn't know English when I started school...:Jordan shrug:
19,300 English is my second language and it looks like I learned quite a few of the more advanced words (raiment, visage etc.) by playing computer games, so those time are not completely wasted. :grin:
21000 for me. I didn't realize my vocab was so poor, relatively speaking. Plus I'm a native speaker, so I don't have any good excuses.
39,400 I expected decent ... but not that high... I guess a masters in econ and JD helped. Lord knows I never read for pleasure.
15.3k which is supposedly pretty good for a non-native speaker. I'd say about 90% of it comes from playing video games from a young age.
That last column on the second page was real humbling. They all seemed like technical old english to me.
I got 33K. Edit: I have an MA in English and work as a writer. I'm sitting in my office, with three other copywriters...one of which is Swedish. I'm curious to see what he gets.
