I am absolutely terrible in SC. I have been studying so hard but just don't "get it." I know there has to be a better, more efficient way for me to learn. I have a hard time picking out verbs, pronouns, adjectives, etc... I know this stuff is extremely basic but even after studying the basics I am having far more difficulty than I would have ever imagined. I am consistently scoring 50% on all SC questions. Can someone give me some real advice?

Firstly, learn basics: parallelism, subject-verb agreement, modifiers, etc. Secondly- idioms. You must memorise idioms and you will see that this is really helpful. Practice is the key. Read the explanations for wrong questions and search on forums for unclear situations. Ese MGMAT Sentence Corrections, OG 11 and Verbal and read posts on forums. This program worked well for me. In GMATPrep i have now a 90% in SC. Good luck
