This is an excellent site and we are very grateful to those who have worked hard to make it available - and free of charge. So please take the following comments as constructive criticism - perhaps to make the site even better:
1. There is a large number of spelling, grammatical and typographical mistakes in the quiz questions. This sometimes makes the questions harder to read than they might be. In a few cases it results in the question being ambiguous.
2. I would guess that the primary author(s) is/are not native English speakers. All the more credit to him/her/them for making the effort to create such a good site. However, perhaps he/she/they could consider asking a well-educated native speaker of British English to edit and proof-read the questions? It should not be too onerous a task.
3. In fairness to the author(s), the original 'Life in the UK' book is also very poorly written - with quite unnecessarily complex English structures and vocabulary and occasional factual errors. This is much less excusable in a book produced by the government and for which people have to pay!
Again - many, many thanks for a site that is generally accurate and easy to use. These comments are intended to help and I hope that you will accept them in that spirit!
Just one example perhaps:
"What is the percentage of voting below the age of 25 in the General Election of 2001?"
This could mean either:
(a) What percentage of those who voted in the General Election of 2001 were below the age of 25?
or
(b) What percentage of people under the age of 25 voted in the General Election of 2001?
Fortunately the answer is the same in both cases! (< 50%).
Best regards and best wishes for your further endeavours!
