The idea of Correctly / incorrectly spelt word (Rohtak/JIPMAT)
Four words are given; you pick the one spelt correctly, or the one spelt wrongly. JIPMAT asked two spelling items a year in 2024-25 and Rohtak includes them in its vocabulary block. The words are standard British spellings of commonly misspelt words.
The exam method
- Underline 'correctly' or 'incorrectly'. in the stem.
- Look for a pattern in the options. If all four are versions of one word, compare them letter by letter at the double letters and the ending.
- Check the trouble spots. double letters, -ance/-ence, -able/-ible, ie/ei, silent letters (rhythm, mnemonic).
- Use the related word. definite comes from finite (so definitely, not definately); consensus is linked to consent (s, not c).
