From my understanding, you cannot end a sentence with a preposition. However, I also get confused on sentences with what seem to be loose verbs at the ending such as the following "You are more interesting than he is."
I would be so appreciative if an expert can confirm what the rules are for words that you can and cannot use to end sentences with.
It's fine to end a sentence with a preposition, though in some cases, ending with a preposition can result in an awkward sentence.
So, in GMAT SC, you're unlikely to see a sentence considered incorrect just because it ends with a preposition. However, it's possible that, if ending with a preposition results in an extremely awkward sentence, the fact that a sentence version ends with a preposition will contribute to that version's not being preferred.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with ending a sentence with a verb.
So, in GMAT SC, a sentence version will never be considered incorrect just because it ends with a verb.
Generally, there are no rules about not ending sentences with certain types of words that you need to be aware of for GMAT SC.
