I am not an M.A. English but I have done English Diploma from NUML.My cousin in last semester sat for its entrance test for M.A. English.He said that there was M.C.Q's type of test comprised of "grammar and usage". Study "Oxford Practice Grammar (oup)" It will help you a lot and don't worry the test of NUML is not tough at all. Best of luck

Test is mainly comprised of

1)Grammar Portion:

Correction of sentences.
Idioms.
Direct Indirect.

2)Explanation of a piece of poetry.

Main purpose of the test is to check your grammar and familiarity with English Literature.

Yes exactly this is what came in my test when i took the test. The piece of poetry we were given to explain was Willliam Blake,s "After apple picking" i think.
Along with that we were also given to write a paragraph on a given topic.
Overall i think it was an easy test

That depends upon how much good you are in english... i mean grammar etc.
btw if you are appearing as a private candidate in NUML, the university still offers classes for a month or two for the ease of private candidates.

Practice writing a short essay on general topics like Democracy or Terrorism or Energy Crisis. Plus you will have to explain a poem, which will not be in a difficult language.
