About GRE Sentence Equivalence

GRE Sentence Equivalence gives you one sentence with a single blank and six answer choices — you must pick exactly two that both complete the sentence logically AND produce sentences that mean roughly the same thing. Picking only one correct answer, even if it's right, scores zero.

Every question here comes from the same practice bank used inside the nerzia GRE app, with a full explanation on every question.

Common questions

How is GRE Sentence Equivalence scored?
You must select both correct answers to get credit — there's no partial credit for picking just one, even if it's correct.
What's the fastest way to find the two correct answers?
Scan the six choices for pairs that are close synonyms of each other first — the two correct answers almost always mean nearly the same thing, which narrows things down fast before you've even finished reasoning through the sentence.
Why do I keep picking one right answer and one wrong one?
This usually means you found a word that fits the sentence's logic but didn't check whether it has a synonym among the other five choices. Both selected words need to fit the sentence AND be near-synonyms of each other.
