Verbal Ability & Grammar Tips
The verbal section tests vocabulary, grammar, reading comprehension, and paragraph organization.
Paragraph Organization (Sentence Ordering)
Look for transition words to establish sequence:
- Starting sentence: Typically introduces the topic and lacks words like "However," "Therefore," or "On the other hand."
- Concluding sentence: Often starts with "Thus," "Finally," or "Consequently."
Subject-Verb Agreement
Identify the true subject:
- Ignore phrases between commas (e.g. "The manager, along with his clerks, is attending"). The subject is "manager" (singular), not "clerks."
