I am currently in 9th grade and I am planning to enter a prestigious college. I was wondering if high school teachers and professors in colleges are so picky about grammar. I am not talking about simple grammar mistakes, as in subject-verb agreement errors. For example, the word "work" is uncountable. If I wrote "I have so many works to do" instead of writing "I have so much work to do," would professors or even high school teachers pick those up and whack points off? I am studying grammar and I realized that there are so many confusing rules. If grammar isn't "big thing," does professor look for "Shakespheare-like" sentences? Or are they more concerned about the content?
One more thing!
There is a lot of rules (A)
There are a lot of rules (B)
Which one is correct?
