@thp510 I agree with you completely that everything is open to critical analysis here. I just provided my 2 cents as I am using the book and didn't think that your opinion was entirely correct. I don't even know what you're apologizing for because why would I feel offended at all. :-D We're all here...

Phew! thp510. You directly copy pasted the question here without even formatting it. Request you to edit your post so that it becomes more readable. 
It seems to be running east to west for miles

Let's move the events to the present tense: The announcement says that growth accelerates after slowing in the second quarter. While the statement above might appear as a newspaper headline, it makes no sense and is grammatically incorrect. Clearly the two actions -- the saying and the accelerating...

@hja379 I agree with you . SC Grail is fantastic. The concepts are given in a very clear way in the book and as a result you can understand things faster and better. I found the questions in the SC Questionbank to be quite representative of the GMAT questions.However,there are a few questions in the...

Well, that's a problem which we all face. Don't we ? If you'll analyze any test,you'll see that you could have probably gotten a lot more questions correct than what you have got. It happens with everyone and the ability to reduce the damage is what separates a low scorer from a high scorer. Firslt...

Hey dude, Sorry to hear about your bad performance. Do you think that it is realistically possible that something as trivial as an erasable board could be the reason for scoring badly on the GMAT ? Don't you think that there would most probably be other more significant reasons than the one you have...

I think that the GMAT Is as equally an exam that tests your nerves as it is an exam that tests your knowledge. So even though you may know how to tackle a particular type of questions,but when you'd have to attempt the same set of questions under time constraints then you end up making silly mistake...
