Sentence correction concepts

I see a lot of posts from people who say they really need to work on their fundamentals in grammar and find sentence correction questions challenging.

I wanted to share with you a few online resources that are, in my opinion, immensely useful to those of us who need a reliable source of english basics.

1. Resources at the Writing Centre in the University of Ottawa

This one is a great place to find online books and tutorials for English. I especially recommend Strunk's elements of style for those who are still unclear about a lot of the stylistic elements of English which do tend to appear in the 700+ GMAT questions.

The Hypergrammar tutorials are also an excellent run through of the concepts you need to know.

2. English Page

This website has some excellent tutorials with practice tests that help you identify your weaknesses. I especially recommend the tutorial on Subjunctive mood


I hope you guys find this stuff as useful as I did. :)

I love the Elements of Style! I got the illustrated version, which is really well executed and makes brushing up on my grammar a lot more fun :)
