Approaching the Question

A Detail questions only ask about major concepts in the passage. As you take notes try to focus on these
major details. Major details often include the definitions of new terms, the important features of things or
concepts, the causes and effects of specific events, etc.
B In conversations, there is a typical structure that the conversation will follow (i.e., the student needs help
with some type of problem). Try to anticipate the major details of the conversation by asking yourself
what the student needs, why he or she needs it, and what the professor or university representative will
do to help the student.
C Correct answer choices are often paraphrased. Do not simply look for repeated words or phrases
you’ve heard in the listening passage. Also, make sure that the answer accurately conveys the
information from the listening passage.
