Well, Wren and Martin is supposed to be the best Grammar book for the English language. However, you may get baffled seeing the amount of grammatical concepts there. You may go through that , if you want. If you find that that is too much of information overload in Wren and Martin, you may go through the SC Grail as the first section of the book covers grammar required for the GMAT. I think that should give you a good grasp of the grammar required on the GMAT!

Raj is right there.

If you want to learn grammar you need to know to score on GMAT, then go with the SC Grail. It is concise and pedagogical.

I would recommend Wren & Martin as a general read. However, if you really want to focus on the GMAT, I would definitely recommend using the MGMAT SC Guide (https://www.manhattangmat.com/storeitems ... 26&catid=6)

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
