Importance of English vocabulary- Vocabulary plays a vital role in scoring good marks in the English section of various competitive exams that you can improve if you work in the right direction upon it.

Having a good command on vocabulary will not only help you in solving direct vocab based questions but also in questions being asked from RC, fill in the blanks, double fillers, cloze test, and phrase replacement topics. To improve your vocabulary, read new words daily. You can also learn new words from our daily vocab words list. Sometimes RC gets time-consuming and we are not able to attempt the desired number of questions, so if we have 2-3 questions related to antonym-synonym we can directly attempt them without wasting much time. Sometimes we can even deduce the meaning of the word by reading the line in the article. This is a very important topic for this section.
