Punctuation: Questions in this category will ask you to demonstrate an understanding of, and skill in, punctuation—through ensuring the conventional use of an end-of-sentence punctuation mark (i.e., period, question mark, exclamation point); of a comma to set off an introductory, parenthetical, or nonrestrictive element or to separate items in a series; of a semicolon, colon, dash, or pair of parentheses to link or separate elements of a sentence; and of an apostrophe to indicate possession.
