When answering vocabulary-in-context questions in the VERSANT Reading Test, what is the best strategy?

Accepted Answer

Re-read the sentence and surrounding sentences to determine what meaning fits the passage context

Question 4

Which reading technique is most efficient when answering main idea questions in the VERSANT Reading Test?

Skim the passage to identify the topic of each paragraph, then select the broadest accurate statement

Skimming for paragraph topics and then identifying the statement that covers the passage as a whole — without being too specific or too broad — is the most efficient technique for main idea questions.

Question 5

How should a candidate manage time during the VERSANT Reading Test section?

Accepted Answer

Move quickly through easier questions and leave extra time for longer passages

Efficient time use means answering straightforward questions quickly and reserving more time for complex reading passages. Re-reading the entire passage for each question wastes time that could be spent on harder items.
