REMEMBER!
SO
SO is used to show agreement with positive statements. SO + Auxiliary + Subject (pronoun) The Auxiliary needs to agree with the verb tense in the original statement. It is similar to using TOO at the end of a sentence.

NEITHER
Neither is used to show agreement with negative statements. Neither + Auxiliary + Subject (pronoun) The Auxiliary needs to agree with the verb tense in the original statement. It is similar to using either at the end of a sentence, although Neither is more commonly used, especially in spoken English.
