I have classes and this is the first time that I've actually completely understood where and when to put and dash and how it is used. Thank you so much for this. I looked at the question and by what you've shown in the beginning, I was able to answer the question without hesitation. Again, thank you so much.

On the SAT is the answer always an em dash when it has been previously used or shown in a sentence or two before the question? -Thank You
@PrepExpert2 жыл бұрын
Dashes will always pair up with other dashes when used to offset something in the middle - this statement for example - such as an appositive or parenthetical statement. However, be careful about extreme language like always, because there are other uses for dashes.

What if you have a choice between one comma and one dash at the end of an independent clause. Do you always default to a dash?
@PrepExpert2 жыл бұрын
It depends what comes after the independent clause. I would not ALWAYS default to a dash. A pair of dashes is essentially interchangeable with a pair of commas, but they must match up correctly. A single dash is often interchangeable with a single colon.

@@Aksafos Here are two quick tips that we cover in more detail in our courses: 1. Use your pencil: Keep it in your hand and use it to keep your placed. Take LIGHT annotations to organize your thoughts as you read. 2. Read in bite sized chunks. If you read the whole passage before looking at the questions, you will run out of time, and you may forget what you've read. Answer the questions as you read, especially the questions that tell you what line you can find the answers on.
