The PowerScore GMAT Sentence Correction Bible

 (13 customer reviews)

What I liked most about this book over the others on the market is the depth it goes into the subject matter. Yes, it does cover some basic sentence grammar but I found this a helpful review since grammar was not taught formally at my school. If English is not your native language, I could see this being a great help/refresher for you. But this book goes deeper into the subject, allowing the reader to see the tricks and the pitfalls the GMAT tries to throw at you.

The layout of the book makes it easy to use as a study guide. Unlike some other companies test-prep material, the questions are original with in-depth explanations and the book offers tips on strategy and typical errors throughout each section. While some other guides quote and cite extensively from the Official Guide, this book offers you a fresh perspective with unique practice questions.

Overall it is a great book and one that I highly recommend.

This book really helped me a lot. I have trouble with English and struggle with some grammar concepts that appear on the GMAT. This book explained them all. Each chapter goes over parts of speech and is divided by grammar error. I was able to concentrate on the errors that were causing me the most problems. There are a lot of examples for each error and a problem set to practice correcting the error. My favorite section provided a list of errors to look for on the test. I saw a lot of these on my real test and could answer the questions more quickly because I knew the trick. I would definitely recommend this book.

I found the separation of the specific parts of speech in the 12 chapters allowed for easy reference. The format is easy to follow and at the end of each segment I felt an increased confidence in my understanding and retention of the material covered. The book is well written and I can say with absolute certainity that the knowledge gained was worth the money spent. Buy this book and keep it!!
