Very good initiative Souvik. Hopefully, this will help people like me to go from V30's to V40's.
As you are yourself aware there are lot of resources on internet and one can't make judgment what is required to boos the score.
So, I am hopeful the resources shared by you will help in improving the score.
Are you also going to share CR weekly resources?

I will start CR from next Monday :) The SC stuff was a test to see if people actually want this stuff.

Some of them are old OG questions, though I am trying to steer clear of GMAT Prep.

I think i found what i was searching for months, thanks souvik101990
Comparisons(combined with different rules of parallelism) is a nightmare for me in SC. Till when will you continue this?

Hello,

I have a short clarification question because the usage of 'like' sometimes still cracks me up souvik101990 :

-> in general, Like is used straightforward when comparing nouns "Like Jamie, Louis ..." ; thats the easiest construction
-> more sophisticated constructions are "like Jerry diving [xyz]" - a noun + participle structure

Manhattan says to never put a prepositional phrase after like, which is understandable as well.

How about the following structure:

"The rapid development of India is like that of England in the Eigtheenth century"

We are comparing two nouns "the rapid development" - does the prep phrase after England create a wrong construction here or not? Or can we view this as whole "Noun / Phrase, Noun Construction" because "in ..." just describes the noun more closely? (the rapid development IN ....)

Thank you very much Sir, I appreciate your effort and can tell you that I am glad everytime your profile picture pops up when I scroll down on a SC-question thread. I read all of your posts thoroughly and take notes.
