Normal practice, or a Simulated test

Both use the same questions. Normal practice is untimed and needs no account: choose an option and the answer and solution appear at once. The Simulated test is the real computer-based format, with one 50-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

FAQs about JIPMAT 2022 Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension PYQs

How to change a question into indirect speech?
The question is turned into a statement, the reporting verb becomes 'asked', and the tense and pronouns shift. For example, He said to me, "What are you doing?" becomes He asked me what I was doing.
Does neither of take a singular or plural verb?
In formal grammar, 'neither of' takes a singular verb. So the correct form is 'Neither of the players was prepared'.
What is the correct structure after no sooner?
'No sooner' is followed by inverted word order and then 'than', as in 'No sooner did the chairman arrive than the directors spoke'. Using 'when' instead of 'than' is an error.
What is the difference between simile and metaphor?
A simile compares two things using 'like' or 'as', for example 'My love is like a red rose'. A metaphor makes the comparison directly without those words.
