Nice article and a set of sample questions you have provided… they are very useful…, I also found a combo course for GMAT verbal… I really loved the GMAT sentence correction part in this pack… very nice examples and ofocurse the explanation as well…
really I would say you don’t need any other study material for GMAT prep if you have this…
