2) sounds better to my ear. result s is plural and thus "are" rather than "is". " Or, you could say, My examination results will be released in 3 days.

  • 2) sounds better to my ear.
  • result s is plural and thus "are" rather than "is".
  • " Or, you could say, My examination results will be released in 3 days.
  • As a question, When are your exam results going to be released?
  • In any event, I'd got with "are" as opposed to "is".

If the question "form" is confusing, think of it this way, "My results are coming out in 3 days."

Or, you could say, My examination results will be released in 3 days.

As a question, When are your exam results going to be released?

In any event, I'd got with "are" as oppo
