Hi krishhxa,

Since you are still facing difficulties, I would recommend you to go back to your study material and revise the concepts. In addition, go through all the problems that you were not able to solve correctly in the first time and note down any new lessons in your error log. The next step would be to revisit this error log every few days, so that the lessons are embedded in your system and you do not make the same mistake again.

As a general guide line, you can start solving a question by taking the following things in consideration:

1. Find out the subject and the verb
2. See that the S&V agree in number
3. Look out for the modifiers
4. Look out for parallelism
5. Look out for usage of certain words - such as vs like, few vs less etc.

If you keep these things in mind while reading a question, you might see an improvement.
