Hi manpreet,

"Who" vs. "whom" is a rare issue on the GMAT and chances are pretty good that you WON'T see it. That having been said, here's an easy way to decide which word to use.

If you would use "he" as the subject, then use "who"
If you would use "him" as the subject, then use "whom"

As an example: ______ do you consider the best composer?

He is the best composer

vs

Him is the best composer

"He" sounds better, so you should use "who"

Who do you consider the best composer?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
