English Test:
It contains 5 parts. You have to complete it rapidly.
They give 45 questions to be complete in 30 minutes.
1. Comprehension passage.
They will give big passage. Don’t fear and don’t do it first. Do it after completing all other sections. They had given 6 questions on it.
2. Fill in the blanks with suitable words.
I think this as Vocabulary Section contains 4 questions.
3. They gave a situation by leaving some blanks in it. Completely based on usage of Verbs and Tenses. Be prepare strongly for it. 7-9 questions.
4. Correction of spellings — some what easier. 6 questions
5. Again the questions based on verbs.
So for English go and prepare well. It was simple but difficult to answer.
I’m not selected in the written test because lack of English knowledge. I did puzzles well and got 8 questions right.
