Quick Tip 💡

When you encounter a Transition Question, resist the urge to simply plug in each answer choice and pick what "sounds best.” This is the #1 mistake students make.

Some of the most common relationships are contrast, cause and effect, elaboration/addition, and emphasis. Only after you’ve analyze the relationship between the sentences should you start evaluating answer choices (looking for the transition that fits the relationship).
