Reading Comprehension
This section challenges you to comprehend different types of texts—from literary works like short stories and novels to nonfiction pieces such as newspaper articles and speeches. Expect questions focused on understanding main ideas, identifying the author's purpose, recognizing themes, evaluating characters, and analyzing text structure.

In grammar, questions will test your knowledge of sentence structure, punctuation usage, verb tense agreement, pronoun reference, capitalization rules, and other conventions essential for clear and effective written expression. Be ready to apply these principles by editing sentences, filling in blanks with appropriate words, correcting errors, and improving clarity.

These texts serve as springboards to analyze authorial intent, examine themes and motifs, recognize figurative language devices, determine tone and mood, evaluate character development, and understand symbolism. Analyze how literature reflects society, culture, time periods, and personal experiences, and draw connections between elements within the texts.

Mastery of organization, introduction, body, conclusion structure, coherent argument presentation, grammatical accuracy, and citation skills can help improve the quality of your responses.
