Native speaker, I scored 96, something like 75k. There were a few I didn't know but figured out from their parts and the available choices. I missed 3 in grandmaster and one in the previous difficulty.

I'm curious how my score would average out over a few attempts.

There are definitely some deep cuts. Like really niche jargon and archaic words.
