Scripps National Spelling Bee test sample.
I think this one is pretty easy. I scored 25 out of 28 the first time. The ones I missed were ones I kinda figured I'd miss. Only one word was really obscure to me (and it was one of the ones I missed.)

How embarrassing. I scored 14 on my first try. Ouch. This coming from the girl who used to win spelling bees in junior high. I even got to be on the radio. My brain has apparently got some rot going on.

You done better than I did...21 was my first score. Never heard of cacoethes (how do you do put dots on a letter on a spelling test like this??????), and really haven't heard the word gallatias.

Well, now I feel really stupid. I scored 16 and I consider myself a good speller.
