TIPS TO PASS THE ENGLISH UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE EXAM
Reading:
• Skim the text to get a general idea of what it is about.
• The reading comprehension questions usually demand an intensive reading; that is, a slow, careful reading of the text or parts of the text with a high degree of understanding. Read both text and questions carefully and intensively.
• Do not expect to understand every single word. Concentrate on what you do understand.
• Isolate the parts of the text that each of the questions belongs to.
• In multiple choice questions, some of the differences between the choices can be very small. Some alternatives may be correct but they are not stated in the text. Answers that can appear “obvious” may be wrong.
• In gap-filling activities, always read the text on either side of the gap intensively and make sure that it fits logically.
Listening:
• Read the introduction and the questions before listening to the test. You should know what you are listening.
• Do not expect to understand every single word. Concentrate on what you do understand.
Writing:
• Prepare for a writing task by reading what you have to do carefully.
• Plan your composition for at least five minutes.
• Leave the last five minutes at the end of the composition to check for mistakes. Remember your “favourite mistakes”.
• The University Entrance Exam is not an examination of your ideas. Do not try to express ideas that are too complicated for your level of English.
