English Composition Examinations Wren & Martins Grammar S.Chand

NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER

This text by Wren and Martin (W&M) needs no introduction! The two authors are the most authentic and revered experts in the area of the English grammar and composition for ages. Various editions of this book have enverged over the years, which have been serving school and college goers from the beginner to the advanced level of study of English grammar and composition.

This work is yet another milestone of W&M’s journey of serving the ever-increasing variety and complex needs of the student community. This time, the specific context is that of competitive examinations. We have combined the richness of W&M with the expertise of our panel of experts from the field of competitive examination-specifically the salient areas of the English language relevant to the different competitive examinations held throughout the year in India. This book will take care of all possible exam-related needs of the students, and therefore, includes in its coverage descriptive as well as objective English

Its exhaustive coverage ensures that virtually no competitive examination remains untouched, except where very specialised knowledge is required like phonetics, high-level quizzes, history of the language, and so on. This book will be useful for students preparing for descriptive examinations such as (Compulsory English and General English Papers of Main Exams) UPSC and PCS examinations, Judicial Services examinations, Forest Servcies examinations, Statistical Services and many other examinations in which subjective papers on English are mandatory. The book is a boon for students who are preparing for objective tests such as Banking and Insurance exams, SSC exams, UPSC prelim exams, Defence Services exams, Law entrance exams, Business School entrance exams, and many other admission and recruitment tests. They can rely on this book alone for the comprehensive preparation of both descriptive and objective tests.

This book stands tall because of the rigorous grammar testing, taken from the original W&M book, High School Grammar & Composition, as well as its applications in myriad areas like vocabulary, spot-the-mistake, sequencing of statements into cogent paragraphs, unjumble jumbled sentences, idioms & phrases, synonyms & antonyms, reading comprehension, and so on. The original W&M material has been carefully picked up, delineated with a grayscale screen, and connected with arrows and pointers with actual questions from various competitive examinations from recent past, so that students develop a direct and deep understanding of the concepts (for which W&M stands for) and their applications in such examinations. This is indeed a hallmark feature of the book. (Please see the section “How to use this book” for a more detailed explanation).

Another salient feature of this book is the array of analytical tables which competitive examination aspirants would need for a cutting-edge level of preparation. We have carefully chosen the questions so that not only all the major examinations are covered but also various levels and types. The table ‘Examination-wise Question Index, as the name suggests, will aid the students to see the average number of questions by their types and therefore enable them to visit those sections which would be most useful. The table “Topic-wise distribution of questions’ will help students to identify and focus more on his/her target examination. This table has been prepared separately for descriptive and objective types of test questions.
