Study Strategies

Reading the Whole Sentence

Context Is Everything

Always read the entire sentence (or passage) before answering a question. Sometimes, the error is only obvious when you see how everything fits together.

How This Helps

  • Ensures you don't miss subtle mistakes.
  • Helps you choose the most logical and clear answer.

Pro Tip

Even if an answer "sounds right," double check by reading the whole context.

Examples

  • Spotting a pronoun reference error by reading the full sentence.

  • Noticing a misplaced modifier after reading the entire paragraph.
