Section outline

        • In NAT (National Aptitude Test) examinations, the sentence completion activity is a type of question in the English section designed to assess a student's vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. In this activity, students are given a sentence with one or more blanks, and they must choose the most appropriate word(s) from the given options to complete the sentence meaningfully and grammatically.

          These questions test a student's ability to understand the context, identify the tone of the sentence, and select words that logically and grammatically fit.

          In sentence completion questions, clues are the key words or phrases within a sentence that help you figure out the correct answer. These clues give insight into the sentence’s logic, tone, and structure, guiding you toward what type of word is needed to complete the sentence meaningfully. For example, words like "because""but""although""therefore", or "such as" reveal important relationships like cause and effectcontrast, or examples. By recognizing these clues, students can better understand the direction of the sentence — whether it's continuing an idea, showing a result, presenting a contrast, or explaining something. Mastering clue recognition is essential for solving sentence completion questions quickly and accurately during exams like the NAT.

          A majority of questions in the NAT test are vocabulary based. This course provides a list of vocabulary questions along with the videos to understand more about the words, its meanings and usage in the sentence.
