Test

[phineus892.livejournal.com]

Here's a test of russian gramma and language skills, if anyone's interested. I think it brings to your attention the little things, which you sometimes don't think about.
The site and test are entirely in russian, so it's probably for the more advanced learners. I certainly found it pretty difficult (I got 63/116).
Hope it helps.

104/116
However, they don't show what your errors were, only the rsulting score, and that's a shame.

I got 103,

The test is not 100% correct

What a shame! And that's the result of a native speaker(((Where is my perfect Russian?

Well the test is for Russians not for foreigners studying Russian, so even a native speaker is bound to get things wrong. Like the man who I got this off is also a native speaker and he got 93 I think. So your result is not bad at all.

I've got 102.

In this test there are several mistakes, so even if you're a absolutely grammatically correct you wouldn't get 116.

True. My collegues discussed this same test, looked up references and tried to figure out what the correct answers were according to the test's author. Bottom line, the test is flawed. So, given that and the fact that I've never shot for more than 80% nor did I do better at school 95 is OK. The test may probably only serve as a means of telling native speakers from foreigners and/or maybe educated native speakers from uneducated, though the latter may do just as poorly as foreigners. :)

i got 101 - checked it all a few times and couldn't find my mistakes.)
there are certain things which are accepted by the maojority as correct while grammatically/orthographically/stylistically they are not. so in some cases you can be thought wrong if you speak correctly. that is especially the case with stresses.
that doesn't excuse my mistakes however.)

But given that I only went to school in Russia for about a year (and that was the first grade) and the rest is based on instinct, not... bad? I guess?
