We know a lot of you have grammar anxieties!

However, you must be intelligent about the usage of your time.

It’s very challenging for most students to even get a 7 on grammar in Writing and Speaking, as many of the sentences must be perfect, meaning, with no mistakes.

For an 8, a majority of sentences must be perfect.

For other important grammar rules, we think you should check out grammarly.com.
