Indefinite Pronouns
Singular indefinite pronouns will go with singular verbs and plural indefinite pronouns with plural verbs. When a indefinite pronoun can be both singular or plural then it is based on the context. Am I correct?

All of the students in the tenth grade (was,were) invited to the job fair.In
