TCS NQT Style Practice Questions

Practice Question 1

Improve: 'He did not write the exam because he was sick.'

A) take the exam
B) write the exam
C) give the exam
D) sit the exam

Correct Answer: A) take the exam

Step-by-step Solution: In standard English usage, candidates 'take' or 'sit for' exams, rather than 'write' or 'give' them.

Practice Question 2

Improve: 'She is more cleverer than her sister.'

A) cleverer
B) more clever
C) most cleverest
D) cleverest

Correct Answer: A) cleverer

Step-by-step Solution: Cleverer is already comparative. Using 'more cleverer' is a double comparative error. Use 'cleverer'.

Study Pro-Tip

Check for redundant words like 'more better' or 'revert back' in options.
