Which abbreviated label is used before the subject line in a classified letter?

• A. Subj
• B. Subject
• C. Re
• D. Note

Answer: (A)

In official or classified letters, headers use a short tag to flag the topic quickly, and Subj is the standard abbreviation for the subject. This tag appears before the topic to signal at a glance what the document is about, and it fits the formal, compact style of classified correspondence. Subj keeps the header brief while clearly indicating the subject matter. Re is typically used to mean "regarding" or "in reference to" and appears in different parts of the letter or as a cue within the subject line, not as the heading label before the subject. Note isn’t used as the subject label, and Subject spelled out is correct in plain language but the traditional, space-saving header in classified formats is Subj.
