Dear students,  Today I am sharing some useful and helpful Tips that would help you score better and would help you  attempt English paper in an impressive way. 1. Read each  question carefully before attempting it. 2. Mention Section (A, B, C, D, E)  and Question no. clearly and legibly. 3. Try to attempt the paper in a serial order ( 1 to 9). 4. First impression is the last impression. So, if you choose to attempt the questions you know very well, you can. It hardly creates any problem. But mention the section and question no. clearly. 5. Leave a line after every answer. But not in case of Objective Type Questions - It looks odd there. 6. Avoid cutting . But don't worry if it happens. Just strike the wrong word, sentence or question  two-three times and keep it in a box.  Avoid crisscrossing. 7. Attempt all the  questions.  Don't leave any question unattempted. 8.  You will get internal choices in  Section-E ( Wri...
