Estudiamos para que__________el examen final. (pasar)

Question

How would you do the subjuntive adverbial phrase for the following sentence....Estudiamos para que__________el examen final. (pasar)

Answer 1

Estudiamos para que__________el examen final. (pasar)

Hmm... I would simply say "Estudiamos para pasar el examen final", since there's no change of subject. It is true that the subjunctive must be used with "para que", but only when there is a change of subject.

For example...

"Lo ayudamos para que pudiera pasar el examen."

"We helped him so that he could pass the test."

I was thinking the same thing, but there could be a subject change in the original sentence. We studied so that he could pass. I don't know why no subject change was assumed in the first replies.. - - 0074b507, Dec 8, 2009
