     Strategy of Structure
    1. First study the sentence.
        Your purpose is to determine what is needed to complete the sentence correctly.

    2. Then study each answer based on how well it completes the sentence.
         Eliminate answers that do not complete the sentence correctly.

    3. Do not try to eliminate incorrect answers by looking only at the answers.
        The incorrect answers are generally correct by themselves. The incorrect answers are generally incorrect only when used to complete the sentence.

    4. Never leave any answers blank.
        Be sure to answer each question even if you are unsure of the correct response.

    5. Do not spend too much time on the Structure questions.
        Be sure to leave adequate time for the Written Expression questions 

    Strategies of Written Expression
    1. First look at the underlined word or groups of words.
        You want to see if you can spot which of the four answer choices is not correct.

    2. If you have been unable to find the error by looking only at the four underlined expressions, then read the complete sentence. 
        Often an underlined expression is incorrect because of something in another part of the sentence. 

    3. Never leave any answers blank.
        Be sure to answer each question even if you are unsure of the correct response.
