Agreed. I'm a native English speaker, read constantly, and get the dictionary.com word of the day via their iPhone app. I also scored below average on this test... so I'm calling "bs" on the data.

I think it would be cool to try out something like the game Balderdash. Have the participants select the correct use of the word by selecting the appropriate usage within a sentence?

Also, who actually remembers what they scored on the verbal part of the SAT??
