Yes, personal pronouns are commonly asked questions in competitive exams, especially in English language and grammar sections. These pronouns test a candidate's understanding of subject-verb agreement, pronoun-antecedent agreement, and the correct use of subjective, objective, possessive pronouns and possessive adjectives cases.

The types of questions asked in the examinations may include fill-in-the-blanks, error detection, sentence correction, or identifying correct usage. Thus, when studying for competitive exams, students must go through personal pronouns thoroughly.

  • Help in usage of correct case (eg – He is taller than I -not me.)
  • Avoid ambiguity and repetition
  • Maintain consistency in number and person
