Your score in this little test should be no less than 100%.

If it isn't or you have problems with something else than they're/their/there homonyms, this is a good site to practice on English grammar.

Once again I was a victim of not reading the text more carefully. Happened to me in school all the time.
I am a slipshod. :(

i think i made more than 30s, but had 100%. It's more a question of paying attention than actual knowledge. But you know, those 3 words are similar in sound, it's common in languages that have more linguistic base on sound to misspell them. Happens to me quite allot, when I'm typing fast, i 'right' the words using the 'write' sound.

100%, even if question 17 and its silly British English confused me slightly (I would say "IBM has increased its profits by 20%").

I'm so glad Prag said that, because I wondered whether I was just being picky.   :P

100%, though I believe a 3rd grader ought to be able to pass that one.

100%! But that one was rather easy, even (or especially?) for a foreigner.
