Winners' Guide to Grammar and Sentence Correction, Jay John, 2023, ISBN 9798361827954
This book explores the sentence correction section of the Graduate Management Admission Test, an important part of any graduate education. If a certain concept is not in the Test, it is not in this book.
The book starts with the basics of English, looking at nouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions and interjections. It then explores the sort of errors commonly found in the Test, like subject-verb errors, misplaced modifier errors and errors in tense.
It then moves on to more specific sentence correction problems to avoid. They include that/which, these/those, can/could, was/were, loose participles, more/most, rise/raise, summon/summons and in/into. Of course, there are many example sentences to test what you have learned, along with answers and explanations.
This is a very concise and well done study guide. It is not just recommended for those taking the GMAT, but for all students in high school and college. For any student who needs extra help in grammar, or advanced students who want to skip ahead, start here.
