Is this supposed to be summary of "Ami-chan no Hatsukoi", ie "Ami's
Loveletter"?  I really like the concept - the plot of an anime story being
reduced to a summary consisting of one- or two-syllable simple sentences.

This summary was a couple of flaws, however:

Ami gets test scores.
Ami gets second highest score.

Actually, she's tied for first with one other person.  They each got a
perfect score.

Mercury gets highest score.

His name is "Mercurius", which is supposed to be latin for "Mercury".  Ami
herself uses the alias "Mercury".

Ami gets sick.
Ami gets possessed.
Sailor Moon saves Ami.

Sailor Moon doesn't appear in this story at all.  Ami, in a delusional
state, transforms into Sailor Mercury and saves herself.  A totally
different transformation from any other she uses, and a whole new attack,
too.

Ami falls in love with Mercury.
They live happyly ever after.

She never meets Mercurius (although all the other girls do).  She's
fascinated with him and challenged by him, and has a curious love/hate
relationship with him that is solely in her own mind.  The other senshi
don't want to shatter her illusions by telling her that Mercurius looks
exactly like Umino.

Okay... I know this wasn't as good as teh other one...
ah... forget it!

Hey, don't say that.  I liked it a lot, especially after I caught on exactly
what story you were telling.  ^_^
