How to tell will from going to

Many learners search for a will vs. going to grammar quiz when a test is close and the rules feel tangled. The core idea is simple: will is used for decisions made at the moment of speaking, promises, offers and predictions without present evidence, while be going to fits plans made earlier and predictions based on what you can see now.

Will is used for spontaneous decisions, such as "I'll answer the phone."
Be going to is used for plans already arranged, such as "We are going to visit Grandma on Sunday."
Be going to is used for predictions backed by present evidence, such as "Those clouds are dark. It is going to rain."
Will is used for promises, offers and refusals, such as "I won't be late."

Example will vs. going to practice questions

Look at those clouds. It ___ (rain) soon.is going to rain. The speaker can see the clouds now, so the prediction rests on present evidence.

The phone is ringing. I ___ (answer) it.will answer. The decision is made at the moment of speaking, so will is used.

We ___ (visit) Grandma on Sunday. We already bought the train tickets.are going to visit. The plan was made before speaking, with arrangements already in place.

True or false: "I'm going to help you with that" is a spontaneous offer.False. An offer made on the spot uses will, as in "I'll help you with that," while going to signals an earlier intention.

I promise I ___ late tomorrow.won't be late. Promises and refusals typically take will rather than be going to.
