"It" can have an antecedent and sometimes it works as a dummy subject(forgot the exact terms used someone mentioned in one post). I always get confused where it should have an antecedent and where it should not.
For instance--
she is going out, and it is raining today (no antecedent)
She is working on a case, and it is not getting resolved.(it refers to case)
Above were very simple examples, so anyone can easily identify in which sentence "it" should have antecedent; however, this is not the case with GMAT SC sentences. They are complex. Please help how to identify when "it" should have antecedent and when "it" should not

Isn't "it" just a singular pronoun use for a singular antecedent? All that matters is, in the sentence, it should have only one logical antecedent. Any more on that causes ambiguity and is thus wrong. Dunno if this helps.
