Relative Clauses - Final Test

This comprehensive final test covers every relative clause type from basic to advanced. You will practise all six relative pronouns — who, which, that, whose, where, and when — plus whom for formal contexts. Questions range from simple gap-fills at A2 level to complex decisions about defining vs non-defining clauses, pronoun omission, and preposition placement at B2-C1 level.

Approach this test using a clear strategy. For each question, first identify the noun before the gap — is it a person, thing, place, time, or does it involve possession? Then check for commas — commas mean it is non-defining, so "that" is not allowed. Next, decide if the pronoun is a subject or object — if it is an object, can it be omitted? Finally, check the formality level — does the sentence require "whom" or a fronted preposition? Working through these steps for each question will help you achieve a high score and show that you have a complete understanding of English relative clauses.
