Frequently Asked Concepts
- CLT vs GTM: Questions often contrast the meaning-focused CLT with the rule-focused Grammar Translation Method.
- Skimming vs Scanning: Remember: Skim for gist, Scan for specific facts.
- Inductive vs Deductive: Inductive = Examples to Rules (Modern/Better). Deductive = Rules to Examples (Traditional).
- Receptive vs Productive Skills: Listening/Reading (Taking in) vs Speaking/Writing (Producing).
- NEP 2020: Expect questions on Multilingualism as a resource, not a hindrance.
