Hi  nik256 ,

If you're looking for practice questions, official sources like the OGs are as close to perfect as we can get. As for theory/concepts, consider picking a source that's  good enough .

Hi nik256,

Your profile includes a GMAT Score - is that an Official Score? If so, then when did you take the Official GMAT and which format did you take (were you at a Test Center or did you take the At-home GMAT?)?
At home Yes
When it comes to training for the GMAT, there are lots of different study materials that you might choose to use, so the ones that will help you the most will depend a great deal on both your overall Goals and how you best learn. 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:

Consider checking out the gmatclub study plan post. Have suggested Manhattan-Prep's 6th Edition for SC and CR to students. Tips on the GMAT Knight blog you may find helpful once you start studying.

I am afraid that you are unlikely to find   a  book  that will cover all topics tested on GMAT.

For Sentence Correction, may I recommend our sentence correction book  Sentence Correction Nirvana , which 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 .
