Sorry if I am a being a constant nuisance.
But I need to ask about precis and comprehension.The people on this forum are practicing it constantly.I don't think about it that much.Am I making a mistake?
It's always a pleasure to help where one can so your questions are not a nuisance and are very valid.

I have just answered Zaroon Siddique about précis and essays etc. even if you can write English well, writing a good précis is an art and I would NOT advise you to take it lightly.

If you don't want to particularly practice précis you can shrink long and huge concepts of other subjects for yourself by making them into a précis, (following the rules of a précis) this way you would kill two birds with one stone: perfecting the art of writing a précis and ingraining other concepts in your mind.
