Average Customer Rating:

Very good for SC concepts Only. No practice questions

Customer Rating:

Sentence Correction is a very important part of the Verbal section of GMAT. It is not only used in the direct SC questions, but also in the incorrect answer choices of RC & CR. The SC Guide from Manhattan GMAT is very useful in understanding the concepts of grammar and how they are applied in GMAT. Best feature is that it takes you through a sequence of chapters, thus addressing all the concepts, with some examples at the end of each chapter. However, the examples are plain incorrect sentences and not the GMAT style questions with answer choices. Good thing is that every page has a useful tip on the side and the format of the text and style makes it easier to grasp the important tips & tricks. There are no practice questions in this book. At the end of each chapter there is a list of Question numbers from The Official Guide for GMAT Review, 11th Edition & its Verbal Supplement, which corresponds to the concepts taught in that chapter. There is also a big matrix in Appendix, which tabulates these questions to concepts. I didn't find it of much use, since in real exam, you don't have time to think that which chapter the question is from. Moreover, the actual exam questions use more than one concept. In addition to the text, you get a code to go online to Manhattan GMAT website and get access to 6 full-length tests and one SC exercise. Some may find this useful. However, I found their questions to be a bit more difficult than those in OG. In summary: very useful book. Recommended to buy along with the OG and its verbal supplement.

If SC is ur weakness,this is the best book for you!

Customer Rating:

SC was definitely one of my weaknesses. I have completed 3 online diagnostic test SO FAR. In each test, almost 80% of SC answers were wrong. Understanding the usage of have/ has/ had, difference between Like vs As and If vs Whether, usage of right idioms...this book has it all. I have seen drastic improvement in my mock test score so far. I have all these books: Kaplan OG Princeton Nova Press But none could give me a reasonable explanation on SC section. The book is slightly expensive, but I think its worth it!

a MUST buy!	Customer Rating:
I took an expensive prep course and still fell short of needing better material to prepare for the GMAT. My tutor recommended this to me and it is bar none the holy grail for conquering sentence correction on the GMAT.

Good for basics lacks practice questions	Customer Rating:
It is good book to build basics, but does not have practice questions. You can read this book in one day. For the money, it is nothing compare to the Official Guide.

worth the money	Customer Rating:
Really good book. all the concepts clearly explained. I think its better to read this book once you have covered at least one other book like princeton, kaplan etc. (the gmat guides).
