To encourage Malaysians to improve on our English, particularly on vocabulary, a FreeRice group has been set up. This would be good practice for those who are planning to sit for SAT, in preparation for applications to US Universities.

LOL I tried that before! Well it's quite effective in improving our vocabulary particularly for the preparation of SAT, though it wouldn't store in our memory for very long time. Your mark will keep on reducing if you get the wrong answer, but over the time you will get to know the synonym of those words you got it wrong initially. :D

I was skeptical about the authenticity of this game translating to free rice, so I looked it up

This is what I found http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/charity/freerice.asp

I'm pretty impressed, now all the more that we should practice!
