Common Challenges
Why JC Students Find GP Challenging
General Paper is unique because it tests both content knowledge and language skills. Many students struggle to develop substantive arguments, find relevant examples, and write coherently under time pressure. The comprehension paper also requires sophisticated inference and summary skills that many students find difficult.
