20/20. Surprised that I only got 17 last time!

Between you and me is correct. Divide the sentence, between you and between me. It wouldn't be between I !!

Gery Tillmanns, sorry, you are incorrect. Learn from your mistake.

Dianne Gillett, not ever. Always me, being objective. Learn, learn, learn……….

Between you and between ME, You will never go wrong when you break the phrase into the components of itself. It is an objective position word and therefore me, not I. Having been a Grammar master for the extent my lifetime, it always works.

17 / 20. You passed! You're a master of the English language! I really shouldn't have made those 3 mistakes though!

Gery Tillmanns,
Between is a preposition which dictates pronouns be in the objective case. "Me" is the correct pronoun. The use of the subjective pronoun, "I" is incorrect.
The preposition "to" works in a similar fashion, as do all prepositions. In the sentence, "He gave the money to you and me", the word "me" is correct. If you separate the pronouns, you would say, "He gave the money to me." You would never say, "He gave the money to I."
