Practise material
Can anyone suggest me good practise material that would help me build concepts in PS & DI.
I have completed OG 11 PS&DI and now I am going thru OG10
I find them way too easy and have just 1 month's time before I take GMAT
Regards,
Mani

which is the right usage
"and therefore not subjected to" or "and therefore not subject to"
