The use of example sentences that fully illustrate the definition of each term and use of familiar words gives me an edge over other students to pass the test. Memorizing the spelling of common words and becoming familiar with the rules of English punctuation are also an added advantage to pass the test.
My test preparation included the examination of a wide variety of written material to get to know how different writers utilize the rules of English grammar, took note of how the sentences fit together and followed the rules of the language. I also took practice tests using sample questions and keenly concentrated on areas that test my knowledge of basic grammar and demonstration of my writing skills. My English test explicitly instructs what is required of me and my careful answering of the questions to ensure I gunner as many points as possible was also a strategy to enable me pass the test.

I have learnt how to write good essays using few words to express my point while maintaining a fluid writing style.
