 Communication Skills as a subject is very different from what you had in IFS as English. We do not have any Grammar as you can see in the syllabus of CS  - I. We do not have grammar, meaning the questions will be more of an explanation type.  YOU WILL NEED TO WRITE YOUR ANSWERS IN DETAIL! I am sharing some tips for better vocabulary and writing outcomes: Read the Oxford 3000 Vocabulary at least 05 times before the exam. Recall the explanations done during the lessons. Read the Topics from the Syllabus again and again so that you can think of examples and personal observations to write. See the slides, documents and links shared in the class Telegram group.

Dear Students I am sharing this post just to help you with the preparation for the examination but I feel I'm not going to actually help you in a big way because it is YOU who is going to help yourself in the BEST WAY - as you are the student. When we prepare for examinations we all know that we are going to write everything in English so you must improve your vocabulary in English. For this, I am sharing with you a document of more than 10 pages with 3000 words provided by the Oxford dictionary. This document should be read by you 5 times or even 10 times before the exam so that you have only English words in your mind. Listen to songs in English, watch football matches with commentary in English, listen to some YouTube videos in English and you can even watch some good movies where you have a good script in English.
