Reading

  1. Read the frame first: main ideas before details7 minExam passages are built from a predictable frame. Learn to read that frame in 90 seconds so every question starts from a map, not a blank page.
  2. True/False/Not Given: telling "False" apart from "Not Given"8 minMost True/False/Not Given errors come from one confusion: mistaking "the passage never addresses this" for "the passage contradicts this". This lesson gives you a reliable test to tell them apart.
  3. Vocabulary-in-context: reading the sentence around the word you don't know7 minYou do not need to know a word to answer a question about it. Exam sentences are built to give the meaning away — learn to read the four kinds of clues that surround an unfamiliar word.
