1. "a handicapped thrown off a bridge"
2. "started investigating and shot me with the idea'
3. "english are and here, we scratch our balls"
4. "the choice for"
5. "During a riot, a man with his pregnant wife tried to go past with their motorcycle. He had problems walking so used a baton. These apes punched him, threatened him and threw him off of Avellaneda bridge."
6. "there for"

If someone applied to my school with grammar skills like that, they would be placed into remedial classes, and I go to a community college... He's talking about entering prestigious schools. I get you're trying to play community defender or whatever, but it was already dealt with by him - they offer Spanish classes.
1. this is no less wrong than saying "gays" or "blacks" as nouns
2. what do you think is wrong with this?
3. and this?
4. a mistake, and not something that you would be placed into remedial classes for
5. don't see anything wrong with this either
6. another simple mistake

I also corrected and underlined mistakes that you made

1. That's like me saying "And the fat walked by"
2. "Yeah we were mid convo when my friend shot me with his opinion that my shoes were ugly!" That is not a phrase, it was clearly a translation error as he said.
3. "[...] English are, and here we scratch our balls" "I love tacos with, sour cream"
4. Now at this point I know you must be playing oblivious - "tried to go past with their motorcycle" versus "he had problems walking so used a baton"; "So used a baton" versus "so he used a baton"

Also your errors were intentionally pedantic and not major grammatical mistakes. A missed apostrophe, a missed comma, and the last one isn't even an error you just changed the phrasing of it. You don't deal by Paypal, you deal through Paypal.

He even admitted he sometimes directly translates:
My grammar skills in English aren't 100% flawless and sometimes I make exact translations from Spanish to English when I don't know how to say a phrase. I do the best I can and I would really like to study at such a great university. If Darwin and Newton graduated from there, I'd like to too.
I really don't see what it is you're arguing? You're just forcing me to nitpick every error he makes and make him look like a moron.

I also made sure to use my apostrophes this time as to not insult you. Prob still missed some though x^(

1. as a non-native-english speaker, if you saw people using "gays" and "blacks" as nouns you would naturally assume that it can apply to other groups as well
2. that isn't a grammar issue though?
3. uh that's a bad comparison. it's irrelevant. he didn't just stick a comma in some random spot
4. I still don't see anything wrong with the motorcycle part, but didn't notice the missing "he," which could easily have been a typo
You don't deal by Paypal, you deal through Paypal.
ermm yeah
but if there's a problem on their part with a payment, it isn't dealt with through them, it's dealt with by them

No, I dealt with the issue through him. I'm done spamming the topic with arguments, as you've yet you let anyone know what your objective is.

Did you already have prospects to go to an ivy-league school?
Cambridge is not an ivy-league university.

that his english speaking ability is by no means so bad that he wouldn't be able to take and understand a class in english

also, no, because you didn't deal with it, he did

that his english speaking ability is by no means so bad that he wouldn't be able to take and understand a class in english
An English/Language-Arts/Whatever-the-foreign-equivalent-is yes, he certainly would not be able to - And those are required pre-requisites.

Oops I made the same mistake, I just meant good school. Didn't even pay notice to the fact that they arent in America.  :nes:

I really wished I had these ignorant dreams of greatness. Like it seems sweet living a complete lie where you're not handicapped.

1.You have to be pretty damn smart to get into any Ivy-League school.

2.Unless you're a legacy student, your parents are major donors, or they reached out to you first your chances of getting in are between 0 and 0

leT ME DOUSE YOU WITH SOME OPTIMISM

Pretty sure it's the British equivalent. Cambridge has a huge reputation.

You can buy your way into Cambridge and Oxford real easy if you're rich enough, relatively few people who are actually smart enough to get offered a spot legitimately accept the offer, the tuition fees and accommodation costs are far out of range for most people these days.
