Reading Comprehension Section 2 will play a crucial role in cracking CUET 2022

• First and foremost, rapidly read the passage and study the questions at the end.
• Begin reading the passage for the second time. This reading should be comprehensive. Highlight significant phrases or terms that connect to the questions.
• Another option is to go over the questions first, which will give you a general notion of the passage’s topic or subject. It will be easier to underline the keywords as you read the passage, allowing you to get to the answers faster.
• Don’t try to give vague or general replies while answering the questions; be particular; occasionally pupils utilize one general explanation when four or five points must be mentioned. Avoid giving generic responses.
• Don’t repeat the same thing twice. It’s a waste of time to do this. Slang should be avoided. When a precise word will suffice, avoid using ambiguous words.
• For answering factual inquiries, don’t use your ideas, which contain words like “what,” “when,” “how,” and “why.” You might start your answer to the ‘why’ question by saying, ‘This is because of a comparable term.’
• Determine the part of speech of the word while answering vocabulary questions. The same part of speech should appear in your response.

Multiple-Choice(MCQ) Test Strategies for CUET

College entrance exams(CUET),  contain multiple-choice questions(50). Let us discuss some strategies for CUET:

Read the question properly
Before looking at the answer options, read the entire multi-choice question. Students frequently believe they know what a question is asking before reading it and proceeding to the most logical answer. This is a big mistake that can cost you a lot of points on multiple-choice exams. Before going over the answer options, read each question thoroughly.

First, answer it in your head.
Before reviewing the answer options, answer the question in your head after reading it. This will help you avoid talking yourself out of the right answer.

Remove all incorrect answers.
Before selecting the answer you believe is correct, eliminate all answer options that you are certain are incorrect. Even if you believe you know the correct answer, eliminating the answers you know are incorrect will ensure that your answer choice is correct.

Make use of the process of elimination.
Cross out all the answers you know are incorrect using the process of elimination, then concentrate on the remaining answers. It will save time, and increase your chances of selecting the correct answer.

Choose the best answer.
It is critical to choose the best answer to the question at hand, not just the one that appears to be correct. Many answers may appear to be correct, but there is usually the best answer to the question that your professor is looking for.

Examine each answer option.
Before selecting a final answer, read each answer option. This may seem obvious to some, but it is a common error made by students. As previously stated, there is usually the best answer to every multiple-choice question. You may not choose the best answer if you assume you know the correct answer without first reading all of the answer options.

First, answer the questions you are familiar with.
If you’re having trouble answering a question, move on and return to it after you’ve answered all the questions you know. Answering easier questions first can sometimes provide insight into answering more difficult questions.

Make a calculated guess.
Make an educated guess for any question you’re unsure about if it won’t affect your score. (Note: Incorrect answers on some standardized tests are penalized. A correct answer, for example, could be worth 2 points, an unanswered question 0 points, and an incorrect answer -1 points. On these tests, you can make an educated guess if you can eliminate at least one or two incorrect answers.)

When you see “All of the above” and “None of the above” answer choices, do not choose “All of the above” if you are fairly certain that any of the provided answers is incorrect. If you are certain that at least one of the answer choices is correct, you can choose “None of the above.”
