I was a science student, yes my spelling and grammar is not good at all. It wasn't seen as a priority within our course you weren't marked down for it as long as it was intelligible.

I get embarrassed (**** had to look that one up) by my poor English so I've got a few dictionary and grammar websites in my favourites.

My GF is a business studies teacher in a secondary school (12-18yr). Some of the stuff she brings home really opens your eyes. There are a lot of kids who can barely read/write usually these are the dimmer kids but a lot of average kids have really terrible English skills. She's had a few things handed to her written in txt. Nothing in 133t yet.

[Edit] Sigh, edited for both spelling and grammAr, I'm going to the frickin pub[/Edit]
