Can you explain how can I use "sa with" in gmat SC? What's the difference between "as with" and to I have known the difference between "similar to" and "like". The example is OG 2016 SC 101.

1. When AS WITH is used an an alternative to LIKE (in other words, to introduce a comparison between nouns, pronouns, or noun phrases), you can eliminate the option in which it appears, because it will always count as a mistake.

2. AS WITH could conceivably be used to make a parallel structure, as in this example:

There are not AS many problems WITH the use of solar panels AS WITH the use of windmills. What happens here is that you have the idiom AS MANY ... AS, and since WITH appears after AS MANY PROBLEMS it should also appear after AS to maintain a parallel structure.

3. Something that is SIMILAR TO something else is LIKE that thing. It would be unusual, however, to begin a sentence with SIMILAR TO, because just from the point of view of usage, one would say that SOMETHING IS SIMILAR TO SOMETHING - in other words, the adjective SIMILAR would be preceded by the first of the nouns that form the comparison. LIKE, on the other hand, is commonly used at the beginning of sentences to introduce a comparison, so in this example the only real candidates are options D and E.
