Hi,

"Should you clear the interview , you will have the HR round also"

Please let me know whether the above sentence is correct ? 'Clear' is not correct. Say 'pass'.

"Should you pass the interview, you will proceed to the HR round."

Can we start a sentence with "Should" ? Yes, or you could more commonly say 'If'.

Clive

No, Anon-- should is fine.  Both are, as Clive makes clear.

Hello.

1) Should you pass the interview, you will proceed to the HR round.
2) If you should pass the interview, you will proceed to the HR round.

These two mean the same, don't they?

Well, the grammar is OK, but much else is not.

Science is the systematic study of the things around us, both living and non-living.
