He is proficient ___ math.

A. In
B. With
C. At
D. Off
Correct Answer: A. In

The correct preposition to use with 'proficient' when referring to a subject or area of skill is 'in'. Therefore, 'He is proficient in math' is the grammatically correct phrase.

  • A. In: This is correct. 'Proficient in' means skilled or expert in a particular field or activity.
  • B. With: 'Proficient with' is typically used when referring to tools or people (e.g., proficient with a computer, proficient with children), not subjects.
  • C. At: 'Proficient at' is used for specific tasks or activities (e.g., proficient at playing chess), but 'in' is preferred for broader subjects.
  • D. Off: This preposition is entirely incorrect in this context.
