article I am going to discuss that how you can score good marks in English so here I start… STEP-1 (Books) - Grammar- Wren & Martin (This is actually a very good book for English and if u are done with this book no one can ever beat you in grammar. You need to buy this book with answers so that when you solve the exercises on various topics you can always check and get to know your mistakes)
- Vocabulary- You can go for a book by Norman Lewis but the best way to cover this part is newspaper when you study newspaper mark all the difficult words and then try guessing them out and then find their meaning from the dictionary finally, jot them down somewhere. Since newspaper uses the vocabulary which is important this can help you a lot.

2. Other topics- Idioms & Phrases, Synonyms, Antonyms, Choose appropriate word ( cloze test), Spotting errors, Sentence Sequencing, Para jumbles and reading comprehension
STEP-3 (Time to be denoted) You need to give 2-3 hours a week for this section.
