Hi All,

Can somebody please tell if we have narrowed down to say two choices in SC and

a) one choice has say some grammar issue, say for e.g. parallelism issue. Here idiom is correctly used.
b) the other has Idiom issue. Here say there is no grammar issue.

So in this scenario which one to choose. Or I am wrong in asking this question and this scenario never comes in GMAT ?

Thanks
Mohit

I've never seen such conflicts.

If you go over all 138 SC questions on OG, and 113 SC questions on OG Verbal, you won't find any problem like that. And remember they are all real GMAT test questions.

Mohit, if you or anyone sees such a situation in the exam, just cancel your score and go home :P

Relax the actual GMAT questions will have no ambiguity what so ever. The correct answer will be free of the major grammatical errors, which include parallelism and idioms. And if a grammatical rule is violated, it will mostly be violated in all the options, so dont worry. In GMAT the options will be very clear.

Thanks for the clarification. So we can ignore this issue :-)
