WordStress AWL, more stress for students who need to spell academic words correctly and the rest of us who just like to play with difficult words.
This version of WordStress is based on the words of the Academic Word List in the Academic Corpus. The list contains 570 word families and 3100 words. The most frequent members of the word families are grouped by ten sublists.
You can choose which sublist to start on and the number of sublists you want to play with.

Sublist 1 contains the most common words in the AWL.
Sublist 2 contains the next most common words,
and so on. There are 60 families in each sublist, except
for sublist 10 which has 30.

By practising and playing with these words you will improve your academic reading speed and writing skills.

You set your own speed and vocabulary size, and can compete with yourself or your friends.

Highscores are reset when the app is closed and restarted.
Scores on GameCenter are not reset.
