What does test anxiety really look like on the GMAT? For many test takers, it does not look like a panic attack. Instead, it shows up as brain fog, rereading, negative comparisons, mental noise....

There is INCONSISTENCY between the two SC books.
According to Veritas SC P.58 Skillbuilder section,
However, according to MGMAT SC P. 99 Chapter 6 Comparisons. Verb can be omitted.
I'm not sure what's wrong with Software X crashes more often than Software J because "crashes" is understood after "Software J". So, it can be omitted?
Could you share me some thoughts?
Thank you all in advance! :please :please :please

We omit words in comparisons all the time, and as long as that doesn't create ambiguity of meaning, it's fine. I don't see anything wrong with saying "Software A crashes more often than Software B", since that sentence only admits one interpretation.
It's when you say something like "Americans hire more doctors than Canadians" that extra words are clearly required, since we don't know from the literal wording of that sentence if Americans are hiring more doctors than Canadians are hiring, or if the number of doctors hired by Americans exceeds the number of Canadians hired by Americans. Presumably the former meaning is what is intended, but both meanings at least make some logical sense. To ensure clarity of meaning, that sentence would need to be fixed.
