Study Strategies

Reading the Question Carefully

Understand What Is Being Asked

Before answering a MAP Language Usage question, take a moment to read every word. Look for keywords that tell you what kind of answer is expected. Sometimes a question asks for the 'best' answer, not just a correct one!

Why This Works

  • Helps you avoid common traps.
  • Makes sure you answer what’s being asked.

Tip

Underline or highlight important words if you can.

Examples

  • Noticing the difference between 'Which sentence is correct?' and 'Which sentence is best written?'

  • Spotting a question that asks for a synonym, not a definition.
