1. Don’t overuse commas (bonus: pause after commas to see if it would sound natural to have one there) 2. Prompt questions don’t test grammar 3. Pay close attention to what the question is asking for 4. Keep it short and simple- avoid redundancy (long answers are usually redundant) 5. Semicolons act as periods (kinda) 6. “What would the essay lose” asks what is the underlined portion saying 7. Choose the relevant option 8. Colons must follow independent clauses (complete sentences) 9. Clarity and conciseness are key (no wordiness) 10. Read the whole sentence so you don’t jump to conclusions 11. Don’t get hung up on one questions

Just some helpful notes :) 1.dont over use commas -use pause test 2.prompt questions dont test grammar -all are grammticly correct 3.keep it short snd simple avoid repetition -if somthing repeats then it's not it 4.semi colons act as periods -would we put a period there ? 5."what would the eassy lose?" Questions - its asking you about the underline portion and what it means 6.stay on topic 7.cloins must fallow an independent clause 8. Clarity is key -keep on tpoic and be clear about what your saying 9. read the whole sentence or more 10. Dont stay on 1 question for long - you have 45min 75 questions and abiut 36 sec per Q

@yarkieee 6 жыл бұрын

"Don't over use commas" is a great tip overall, but the "pause test" is a subjective way to rule out what's grammatically correct. Following real punctuation rules would be a better way to improve your score.

@BeyondTheTest 6 жыл бұрын

juicy Agreed. But these are quick tips by design. The pause test is reasonably reliable, albeit imperfect.

@BrandonJLee152 9 ай бұрын

@@kcrish1106I got a 35 on reading, and really what you want to be focusing on is skimming passages, ideally catching onto 60-70% of the first read through. As you go into the questions, many of them SHOULD be able to be answered without going back. You want to make sure that the 60-70% memorized are main ideas rather than useless information. Many “useless” information questions can be inferred without going back (such as “what does this word mean in line…”). For history passages, your first read through should be around 40-50% of content absorbed. Really make sure you try to read in between the lines, searching for any motivations of writing, context of written piece, and once again, main ideas. The blunt of your time split for reading should be used on this specific passage. Good Luck!
