sections. Determined by # questions answered, # answered correctly/incorrectly,
and the level of difficulty and other characteristics of the questions. If you answer
easy questions correctly, get a chance to answer harder ones, making a higher
score possible. AWA and Integrated reasoning scores reported separately from
the rest of the test and have no effect on verbal, quantitative, or total score.
General Test-taking tips - (ANSWER)1. Use time wisely- 1 3/4 min per verbal Q, 2
min per quantitative Q. 2 1/2 min per IR Q. Onscreen clock shows the amount of
time left during the test. It will auto alert when there are only 5 min left in the
section.
,2. Answer practice Qs ahead of time- familiarize self with all question types then
do practice Qs, preferably timed.
3. Read directions carefully- if forget them, click on the help icon. Try not to do
this bc that time still counts. Just try to remember at the beginning.
4. Read each question carefully/thoroughly.
5. Don't spend too much time on any one question- more worthwhile to move on.
6. Confirm answers only when ready to move on- can't go back and change once it
is confirmed. Can't skip questions. For the IR section there could be multiple
questions based on one prompt. When this happens, if they show on one screen,
you can change your response to any of the questions on the screen before going
to the next screen. However, you can't go back to that screen again once you've
moved on.
7. Plan your essay answer before you begin writing.
Even though the first 10 questions help the algorithm to determine your ability
for the following questions, focus on them all equally, as the score is computed
based on your answers to all of them, and it is more important to complete the
test than to respond correctly to every question.
Basic Grammar Rules for Sentence Correction Portion - (ANSWER)1. Agreement:
-non-verb agreement: singular subjects w singular verbs, plural w plural. I walk to
the store not I walks to the store.
-pronoun agreement: pronoun must agree w/ noun/pronoun it refers to in
person, number, and gender. When you dream, you are usually asleep, not when
one dreams, you are usually asleep.
, 2. Diction:
-among vs between: among refers to relationships involving >2 objects. Between
is for relationships with only 2 objects.
-as vs like: As can be a preposition meaning "in capacity of" or can be a
conjunction of manner followed by a verb. Like is used as a preposition, and
should be followed by a noun, object pronoun, or verb ending in -ing.
-mass and count words: mass words are nouns quantified by an amount rather
than a number. Count words are nouns quantified by a number.
-pronouns: myself shouldn't substitute I or me.
3. Grammatical Construction:
-fragments: parts of a sentence disconnected from the main clause.
-run-on sentences: two independent clauses that run together without proper
punctuation.
-constructions: wordy and redundant.
4. Idiom: Nonstandard expressions should be avoided, although English idioms
don't always follow conventional grammatical rules. Be sure to use the correct
idiom when using the constructions and parts of speech.
-Prepositions: specific prepositions have specific purposes jog in the morning vs
jog on the morning.
-Correlatives: word combos such as "not only... but also" should be followed by an
element of the same grammatical type.
