uestions where you have to identify incorrectly spelt words are common in
all levels of verbal ability tests. The test designer needs to choose commonly

misspelled words which are in regular use, as it would be unfair to use obscure words
which only a small percentage of candidates could be expected to know. This means
that the test designer has a relatively restricted list of words to choose from and you
will find that the same words tend to appear in many different suppliers tests.

Please note that many test suppliers frame their spelling questions in a different way
to those in this practice test. For example:
Choose the pair of words that best completes the sentence.
The

of the timetable caused some

A) rivision

B) revision

A) inconvenience

B) inconvenince C) inconveneince D) inconveniance

C) revission

D) revition

However, what is being tested here is your ability to spell these words correctly
rather than anything else. Improving your performance on these spelling questions is
straightforward. Work through these test papers methodically and make a note of the
ones you get wrong. This will give you a list of words that you need to learn to spell
correctly.
