English Grammar and Composition is so designed that your grammar, reading skill and expression are checked simultaneously. I will suggest CE2013 aspirants to have a good command on grammar so that you may be on safer side in case of "surprise" questions; it will facilitate you in in other papers as well especially in Essay as grammatical and spelling correctness is expected to you while taking a competitive exam. For Precise I will suggest to prepare it properly with a lot of practice. Apart from solving past papers, make precise of paragraphs from writings of famous prose writers like Bernard Shaw, Huxley, Russell. You should be well versed in comprehending the content as well as in condensing it in fewer words. In CE 2012 Precise was very difficult. Most of the candidates even failed to comprehend it properly. Their views were at variance about the title of the precise and most of them were wrong as I observed and had already guessed that they are not going to make it because of this single question. In fact it is not only a 25 marks question, it presents the crux of all your reading and writing capabilities to the examiner. So I will not favour the opinion of taking it lightly and resting on good luck for result..

The sequence of questions does not matter, their quality does. Anyhow it is better attempting questions of shorter length first. I did Precise and Expansion in the last as these are quite time consuming. You must save 45 to 60 minutes for Precise; the requirement of time depends on the difficulty level of the question and the capability of the candidate. However it is you only who is to decide how much time is needed for each question. Divide your time beforehand and keep an eye on watch so that you may have enough time at your disposal.

for idioms and synonyms you should refer only past papers because these are time consuming. and are these topics are enough for expansion of css 2013 or i should go for more topics?

[QUOTE=ssara;501832]Nomee and Sidiqi Thank you very much for your such a nice suggestion. What would you suggest us about idioms, synonyms etc??
/QUOTE] For Synonyms Prepare Synonyms from past papers and GRE books. If you have that much a stemina to digest all A practical tactic there would be to have a look on word morphology (roots,prefixes and suffixes) For word roots you may consult Word Smart I. It has a list of English roots which will help you guessing the meaning from available options for synonyms and antonyms. For example in 2012 there was a word Insipid. In(prefix)sip(root)id(suffix). In depicts that the word is giving a negative connotation, sip is very easy to guess (yes, a sip of coffee/tea etc) it pertains to taste. So the morphology of word is suggesting something that is not taste worthy. Here are some useful links for word roots: http://www.virtualsalt.com/roots.htm http://grammar.about.com/od/words/a/wordroots.htm http://www.learnthat.org/pages/view/roots.html For Idioms Do them only from past papers. Do not waste much time on it as there are millions of them and one cant know all. However whenever you come across idioms while reading newspaper, underline them and note down. That will enhance your collection of idioms of daily usage.
