About GRE Text Completion

GRE Text Completion questions give you a sentence or short passage with one to three blanks, and a set of word choices for each blank. You need to pick the word (or words) that make the sentence logically consistent — not just grammatically correct.

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 many blanks does a GRE text completion question have?
One, two, or three blanks, each with its own set of word choices. Two- and three-blank questions require every blank to be correct — there's no partial credit.
What's the best strategy for GRE text completion?
Cover the answer choices and predict your own word for the blank first, based on the sentence's logic (contrast words like "although" vs. continuation words like "and" or "because"), then match your prediction to the closest answer choice.
Is text completion mostly a vocabulary test?
Partly — but it's really testing whether you can follow the logical structure of a sentence. Strong vocabulary helps you recognize more answer choices, but the bigger skill is spotting the sentence's logic. See our GRE vocabulary list to build word recognition.
