Need SC prep material

Question

Hi,
Wanting to improve my SC part of the verbal section, I joined the TTP trial it was good but too costly for me. Is there any pdf (like grammar book on gmatclub) or free/affordable resources for Sentence Correction which cover everything from basics to advanced concepts?

Thanks

Hello,  GMATNOOB788 , and welcome to GMAT Club. First off,  here  is a link to the in-house grammar guide. (No price beats free.) You might also be interested in several of the topics and links found  here , in the dedicated Sentence Correction Resources forum. (I have made a contribution or two myself.) I am of a mind that you have everything you would need to gain confidence and put in a quite respectable performance on SC questions after combing through such high-quality resources.

Good luck with your studies. If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

Hi  GMATNOOB788 , thought I would mention that our sentence correction book  Sentence Correction Nirvana  is perhaps the  only  book that offers a score improvement  guarantee , and is especially designed for  non-native  speakers.

After reading the book  twice  (yes! it's an  academic  book, and so must be read twice in all seriousness, to  reinforce  the concepts), you will start looking forward to solving SC questions!

The book is available on  Flipkart  and  Amazon.in . You might want to refer to these sites, to also read testimonials of how readers have benefited.

You can als go thru  this post  on how  Soubhik ,  who scored  V51  (overall score 780) , vouches for our book.

If you want to  sample  a chapter before deciding to go ahead with our book, please PM me your mail-id (along with the chapter that you would like to sample) and I will be happy to send that chapter to you by mail. In addition, the entire Grammar section of the book is also available for free preview at  pothi .

Hi  GMATNOOB788

For GMAT Verbal, it is very important that you follow the  right methodology  and the  logical approach . Your focus has to be on  eliminating four incorrect choices rather than choosing the right one . The key is to develop a solid understanding of the concepts that are typically tested on the GMAT and master the process skills that are required to solve GMAT questions. Only then, you will be able to smartly avoid the traps set by the test makers.

Before you start learning, it's important to understand what is actually tested using the questions. Each module in Verbal (SC, CR and RC) has to be approached in a different way. Before you start learning the concepts of  SC , you need to understand that SC questions on GMAT test your ability to convey the right meaning without any ambiguity. So, it's important to approach them from a meaning stand-point. You might have often come across answer choices which are both grammatically correct and convey a logical meaning but are indeed incorrect because they do not convey the intended meaning. So,  the process to approach SC questions  is to:
• Comprehend the original meaning of the sentence
• Identify errors if any (both grammatical and meaning wise)
• Eliminate answer choices which either are grammatically incorrect or do not convey the intended meaning

You can go through the link below to understand the process in a better way:

This should help.
