Darmody-To whom you're actually referring to ? Souvik or me? And what exactly you would like to see? Can you please elaborate...

BTW, Please press Kudos instead of saying 'thanks' simply...

P.S: Have a look at Souvik's new post on Advanced SC...I'm sure you'll find it immensely helpful...

I wanted to know if these topics are arranged in a systematic manner.

For example: The foundation concept and then the advanced concept it would be easy to access and then the articles would make more sense...

Wow. A superb task. Is the complete work available in one pdf/doc file OR we need to download them seperately?

Once more thanks.

Hi e-Gmat,
First of all a BIG thanks for putting this list up.
I have a suggestion though. To me this list will look more readers friendly, especially for people like me who wish to read them all one after another, if the related/similar articles are listed one after another and not randomly distributed. As it is as of now. To make myself clear, articles numbered 6, 19 and 10, all on VRB-ED modifiers, should be put all at one place i.e. 6,7 and 8 respectively. SImilarly, all the articles on say VERB-ING modifiers (2 and 6) can also be put one after another... say as 2 and 3. Same goes for those on parallelism...
