I have a doubt in the following sentence.
(i know its very basic,but i am a little confused)

Amy is feeling WELL (here well is adjective or adverb??)
in my opinion as WELL is describing what kind of feeling, it should be adverb, but Manhattan SC states that anything follows feel is an adjective.

please clarify..

Thanks,
KP

Amy is feeling well.

"well" is an adjective here because of the verb "is feeling" which refers to health. "Well" is describing HOW Amy is.

But the confusion is that "well" can be used as an adjective OR an adverb.

Here is the rule: If we are talking about health, "well" can be used as an adjective.

ADJECTIVE: I am well. (health-related)

ADVERB: I did well on the GMAT.
