questions are chosen from actual past tests and are very thoroughly

also well thought out and both the correct and the incorrect choices
reflect actual test patterns. The explanations for the answers in the
Official Guide are crystal clear and very insightful.
The rules of grammar on which the GMAT Sentence Correction questions

There is a big difference between understanding the grammar
of a language and being able to speak that language well. You don’t need to

every grammar rule has an exception, so the best way to improve your English is
to practise as much as you can.
