Sample UI Post-UTME 2020 questions

1. The committee, together with its secretary, ___ meeting this afternoon.
  1. is
  2. are
  3. were
  4. have been

Answer: A. is

The singular subject 'committee' takes the singular verb 'is'; the intervening phrase does not change the concord.

2. Choose the word nearest in meaning to 'sparse' as used in 'Vegetation is sparse in this dry region.'
  1. Dense
  2. Scanty
  3. Lush
  4. Abundant

Answer: B. Scanty

'Sparse' means thinly distributed or scanty.

3. The new nurse is proficient ___ using the laboratory equipment.
  1. at
  2. on
  3. in
  4. with

Answer: C. in

The standard construction is 'proficient in' a skill or activity.

4. The manager asked whether the files ___ ready for dispatch.
  1. was
  2. is
  3. has been
  4. were

Answer: D. were

The plural subject 'files' requires 'were' in the reported question.

5. Had I known that the road was closed, I ___ another route.
  1. would have taken
  2. will take
  3. would take
  4. had taken

Answer: A. would have taken

This is a third conditional construction, so the result clause takes 'would have' plus the past participle.
