HI all,
During my SC practice, I've noticed that I get a lot of the questions wrong because I just don't notice errors when I'm reading the responses. Eg for a sentence such as "Found only in the Western Hemisphere and surviving through extremes of climate, hummingbirds' range extends...", I will read it and not notice the fact that the modifier is modifying "hummingbirds' range" when it should modify "hummingbirds". Whenever this happens, I look at the answer explanation and it seems obvious but while answering the question it just doesn't jump out at me. It seems like I have the knowledge to answer the question but I find it hard to detect the errors when I see them. Is there any way to address this?

Hi, did you practice with Manhattan SC Guide? If not, then I suggest you practice with that book to improve your SC skill.
Also, I think that you could read questions slower so that you could understand questions better.

Hi broall
Thanks for your reply. I have gone through the Manhattan SC once. Will try your tip of reading through the question slower, thanks for that!
