Well GMAT Land is an island away from the normal world ;) . Anyways to clarify your point about the link you gave , the link is specifying right usage , as it is Commonwealth English (British). Its ok to use should and subjunctive in British English but be wary GMAT scope is American English .

Hope that helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Until now I used to think the only difference between Brit and American English is Spelling & pronunciation.... :)... Different grammar rules for each is something new to me, considering the fact that "English" as a language came from the Brits :)
