Table Completion Questions

Unlike the previous questions, these are not multiple choice. There question require you to “drag and drop’ details from a presented passage into a table (hence their alternative name: “Fill in a table” For these questions you will be using your mouse to sort details into their proper category. Not all of the details belong in categories - some are there purely to distract you, so be careful!

These questions measure you ability to understand and organize conceptual information that is given to you. If you’re familiar with LearnHub’s concept game, you’ll have already had some practice as organizing information into concepts.

How to deal:

1. Get read to recognize paraphrasing and restatements. The ideas present to you in the answer question are very unlike to be direct quotes from the passage
2. Make brief notes as you read so you can refer them later. Remember, these questions are asking you to sort the details you were presented with in the passage.
3. Read the instructions carefully - you may not be required to place all of the options. If there are choices that are not to be used they will be noted in CAPTIAL letters.

Watch out for:

* Using all of the options when only a certain number where asked for
* Choices that include information that was not included in the test
* Choices that included similar information to the next that has been slightly altered or distorted.
