So I finished the Sentence Correction section in the OG and my final results are 105 correct out of 140. The breakdown in chronological order is as follows:
1. 17/20
2. 33/40
3. 27/40
4. 28/40
Total: 105/140 = 75% correct.
Honestly I am a little bit disappointed. I thought I'd do better than this. I will also admit that most of the time I just trust that the grammar I've learned over the years from speaking, reading and writing the English language will hold me in good stead. I have a hard time memorizing grammar rules like noun clauses, indefinite pronouns, present perfect, past perfect and what not and a majority of the time just pick an answer based on how the sentence 'sounds' to my ear.
I have 8 weeks to go for my exam. Any tips to improve my sentence correction scores are appreciated. Thanks!
