Sure, here's a link to my V48 data - https://tinyurl.com/V48data

Two tips for SC might be to:

1) Not absolutely terminate answer choices on the first run through.
2) Not become a prisoner to a single stepwise approach.

"Can a pronoun refer to a possessive antecedent or not?" - SC Query by a poster on Reddit who already knew a significant amount about the topic

My Comment:

Got a V48 on my last GMAT with no counted SC incorrect. This may sound weird but the level of depth you're going to may have a net negative affect. Be careful to not become an absolute prisoner to these rules. You're aware of what is preferable and picking the best answer choice is the task at hand.

The dinosaur's tail meant that it could not walk straight ---> On GMAT SC, this sentence would likely be incorrect.

Although Elizabeth Barrett Browning's success was later overshadowed by that of her husband, among her contemporaries she was considered the better poet -- > That being said, this answer choice is a verified, correct answer choice.
