The Ultimate Guide to GMAT Verbal: Grammar and Sentence Correction is a must-own for anyone preparing for the GMAT. It covers a multitude of topics, starting with the basics and slowly but surely fleshing the information out with more knowledge and plenty of examples to enforce it, the answers always being explained in such ways that one can always understand the reasoning for it and perhaps what they need to work on and pay more attention to.It starts out rather simple, explaining the bare bones of the English language, and those more advanced in the subject might find it a bit tiresome, but for non-native speakers and those who have always had a challenging time with this sort of thing, you’ll thank your luck stars you chose to buy this book.There are tables and charts sprinkled through-out that highlight and point out key subjects and ideas, certain things that need to be remembered in order to do well on this section of the GMAT. And with plenty of advice and pointers, a couple of sections dedicated to “pitfalls” that one should be sure to avoid, this really is one of the best books I’ve read on the subject.At times a crash course in the English language—covering everything from the basics to the advanced—at others an indispensable study guide and learning tool, this simply is a must-own for any non-native speaker of the language—and anyone, really, who could do with a better grasp of the intimate goings-on of the language and structure of it—hoping to do the best that they can on the Sentence Correction section of the GMAT.
