Each set of flashcards comes with 100 practice questions at no
extra charge. These questions reinforce the material on the
cards. Each question provides a “hint” by referring to the card
(or cards) that contains the rule that will help the student
answer the question. Look at the following three sample
questions. View sample flashcards to see if you can tell whether anything is wrong in questions 1
and 2 and which is the best choice in question 3.

Answer Key
Although both formats are similar to those of standardized tests, I have developed these questions to reinforce the grammatical rules on the flashcards. Once the student has mastered the material, he or she would do well to practice the tests developed by The College Board.
