    Great video! However, I think number 34 is answer choice c (are) instead of answer choice d (was). I think it’s C because the rest of the sentence was in present tense.

      Akshara, you are 100% correct. It should have been "are" there simply because of the tense agreement. I looked up the rules again and that's what Grammarly says. www.grammarly.com/blog/there-is-there-are/😱😱😱

      @@KatyaTutorSAT A number = plural vs the number = singular. (There are a number of steps) The number of steps IS vs A number of steps ARE.

      A number” is always plural. “The number” is always singular;the expression "a number of" also belongs to the same category

    I love your videos, I am preparing for the SAT as I have to take it in December. I get a full score when I do a single passage but lose my strength when it comes to a timed exam exact for 35 minutes with 4 passages.

    a number of something is treated as plural. Isn't it?

    Beware of compound subjects
    beware of prepositional phrase subjects
    beware of non-essential element subjects
    beware of inversion where subject comes after verb

    Thanks for your tips. However, at 3:52s, should the answer be B instead of D? a number of steps + V plural; the number of steps + V singular

      Should be C

  • @marccepeci2980
    @marccepeci2980 3 роки тому +1

    Should it be, "EnterS committee member John Burland,"... Since John Burland is singular should the verb be enterS and not enter?

    • @KatyaTutorSAT
      @KatyaTutorSAT  3 роки тому +1

      Yes yes. It would make sense. This phrase, specifically, doesn’t get conjugated though. It always is “Enter Katya Seberson.” “Enter SebersonMethod students.” It will always be ENTER. It means - here comes X
