Your knowledge of the English language and its nuances is incredible. You know every little grammar rule there is and you continue learning all the time. That's why it also annoys you so much when people make grammar mistakes. Doesn't it?
So, what does this say about your personality? A scientific study shows that most of you are introverts. You may have more sensitivity to variability.

You have a nearly perfect grammar, and that's incredible. You might have a particular error that bothers you such as "who" verse "whom" or comma misplacement, however, you do not care enough about every detail to continuously correct people.
According to science, there’s something about extroverts that makes them less bothered by incorrect grammar. This is because extroverts enjoy variability and engaging with people. This variability is energizing and could be an indirect manifestation of incorrect grammar. If you happen to defy the laws of science and you consider yourself introvert, you are probably a very polite and kind person who feels uncomfortable interrupting someone to simply correct their way of speaking, good for you.

Well this is a bit embarrassing. If you are not in the second grade yet, I would like to applaud you for going above and beyond. You are a determined young person who will most likely change the world. Now if you are an adult, it is time to look in the mirror and reflect. You might want to considering finding a tutor to teach you how to communicate with proper grammar, maybe contact your local elementary school and ask them to sit in on a lesson or 2 or 10. After that come back and try take this quiz again and hopefully then you will be a grammar hammer. In relation to your personality, you feel as if there are more important things to worry about in the world then using correct grammar. If that is your mentality then congratulations. However if that is not your mentality, it is time to hit the books and refresh yourself on all the nitty-gritty grammar rules that come alongside the English language. .
