GMAT Sentence Correction [#permalink] New post   13 Aug 2017, 08:10
I have written some of the GMAT mocks and my verbal score is fluctuating between V25 to V35. I am particularly facing issues with sentence correction.
How to improve significantly on sentence correction? I have recently started going through MGMAT sentence correction book. Please share links to some good online resources also.

I just used the OG and did problem sets of 10 where I would go back and look at each mistake to see why it was wrong. I took notes and slowly became aware of all the tricks that are typically used. You start to get a "feel" for it.

Hi abhishek0411,

MGMAT Sentence Correction guide is brilliant. It is a must do. It's not a one time read book. Read, make notes, apply, revise and re-read and go on.
RON's notes and videos. Amazing they are.
For Non-Natives - e-gmat SC is a saviour.

Do all of the above three. While practicing learn a strategy and approach to tackle an SC question. MEANING is the first & MOST important part of an SC question, rest of the rules or anything comes later.

Hope it helps :)

Hi abhishek0411,

You've identified SC as an area that you need to improve on, but it's not clear whether that's the only area or not. Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied?
2) What materials have you used?
3) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?

Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
7) What Schools are you planning to apply to?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich

The MGMAT guide is good for SC. I would suggest you to understand each concept tested in SC and try practicing them in OG questions. Also go through the gmatclub grammar book.

If you are looking for any courses you can check egmat or empowergmat.
