manhattan Sc guide is quite good for clearing the basics. Then you can start practicing questions from OG10 and OG12

Before you start with the Manhattan Sentence Correction guide, I recommend going through a general English grammar book that isn't focusing on the GMAT. This will give you the base you will need to understand the Manhattan Guide at a deeper level. If you just rely on the Manhattan Guide, you will see things on the GMAT that will trip you up. That's what happened to me anyway.

Abhi332, I was wondering why you specified OG10 and OG12, but skipped OG11.

See I'm going to say that PowerScore SC > MGMAT SC. But I do have both and I will be going through both again.
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.
