Rated 2 because of frequent spelling / grammar mistakes. The content was okay but many questions had multiple plausible answers - in the exam it is more about justifying your choice than choosing a certain one.

Great Quiz, very useful. However, could be clearer what you are asking, and check over for grammar and spelling errors.

Would be more useful if answers were included. :) x
