I've been going through these threads to see what others in the CO process are going through. Given that many are asking about the testing, I thought that my adding this might help for any grammar portion that might be part of it.
No, I'm not usually a snob. I just play one on forums! ;):D
Oh trust me, I have been accused of being a grammar-nazi on more than a few occasions. My personal favorite is when someone comes on here, typing like they are sending a text. If they can't make the differentiation, they can find another forum.

Improper word usage makes it very difficult to read a post. It is also difficult to read a post when there is no proper capitalization, sentence structure or breaks in the post for paragraphs when the topic changes.
When I see a post that does not follow basic grammar rules, I ignore it entirely, wont even read it! LOL

Oh and its "You're welcome" not "Your welcome"
"You're" is a contraction for you are, therefore the saying is "you are welcome".
"Your" is a possessive pronoun and shows somebody owns something, like "This is your car"

Much like reading the questions in the "Ask a Cop" section.
On the bright side, this forum is far more intelligent than many others
I have been to.
