The incorrect sentence is 2. A score of years == 20 years. That is a long time to be in grammar school!

Yep, 20 years in the US =
a. high school diploma, bachelor's degree, master's degree, and at least part of a doctorate...
or
b. what you get for selling crack.

1. monumental.
2. Grammatically correct, if factually wrong.

Thank you.

The word "monumenal" is just a missspelling.
