I would like to confirm whether term 'and also' is wrong/redundant/correct ON GMAT ( i wrote ON GMAT because different sources have different opinions but GMAC's view is what matters). Please cite any question if you know
Premise: If you like my post
Conclusion : Press the Thanks Button ;)

I'm trying to think of specific examples, but I've typically seen "and also" used as an incorrect version of "but also" in the "not only x but also y" construction.

I would say that "and also" is unlikely to be correct.

EDIT: I found an exception:

Here we can use other, more obvious errors to get to the right answer; "and also" is correct by default, essentially.
