3 Tip #2: When required to arrange jumbled words to form a meaningful sentence, it is often easier to eliminate incorrect options. Question: People (P) at his dispensary (Q) went to him (R) of a11 professions (S) for medicine and treatment Options: RQSP B) QPRS C) QRPS D) RPQS Answer: QPRS: People went to him at his dispensary of all professions… (incorrect) QRPS: People went to him of all professions…(incorrect) RPQS: People of all professions at his dispensary went to him … (incorrect) The sentences formed by options B, C and D are incoherent and can be eliminated. Thus, the right option is A: People of all professions went to him for medicine and treatment at his dispensary.

4 Tip #3: When combining sentences to form a paragraph, ensure that there is a logical flow.
Question: The first and sixth sentences are already given. The four sentences in the middle have been removed and jumbled up. These are labelled as P, Q, R and S. Find out the proper order for the four sentences. 1: What are the causes of our chronic food shortage ? P: To find food for these growing new millions is desperate task. Q: Every year, we add more than a crore of persons to our population. R: Despite stupendous efforts by our government, the population is growing unabated. S: The chief cause is population explosion. 6: This unprecedented growth can drag us to the doors of starvation very soon Answer: The Question in 1(“What are the causes of our chronic food shortage?“) is logically followed by S (“The chief cause is population explosion”) as the answer. After offering the answer in S, some further explanation is given in the form of Q and P. Sentence 6 speaks about “unprecedented growth” and this must be referring to the population growth referred to in R, which implies that R must immediately precede 6. Thus, the order of the sentences to form a logically coherent paragraph is 1 : S, Q, P, R : 6
