Product Description

The Sentence Correction guide provides a highly organized and structured approach to the variety of questions in this verbal content area. Mastery of sentence correction is possible through the development of a true grasp of the rules of "GMAT grammar." Students are presented with every major grammatical principle and minor grammatical point tested on the GMAT, as well as ample opportunities to practice each one. The guide also includes online access to 6 full-length Computer Adaptive Practice Exams on ManhattanGMAT's website.

Each chapter builds comprehensive content understanding by providing rules, strategies and in-depth examples of how the GMAT tests a given topic and how you can respond accurately and quickly. The Guide contains a total of 187 "In-Action" problems of increasing difficulty with detailed answer explanations.

Special Features

Purchase of this book includes one year of access to ManhattanGMAT's online Sentence Correction Question Bank (accessible by inputting a unique code in the back of each book).

Manhattan GMAT has categorized all the Sentence Correction problems in The Official Guides by question type. These categorized problems have been organized into problem lists that appear in the Sentence Correction Strategy Guide.

From the Publisher

About the ManhattanGMAT Strategy Guides

The ManhattanGMAT Strategy Guides offer students a unique balance between two competing emphases: test-taking strategies and in-depth content understanding. Most prep courses focus on the strategic portion of the GMAT - timing, shortcuts, etc. However, we believe that unless a student has a solid understanding of the content, the tricks won't be of any use. Therefore, we include practice problem sets that build specific foundational skills in each topic as well as advanced content that many other prep books ignore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product, February 7, 2007
By B.S.A. "BA" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
I have used a ton of GMAT prep books and in general, aside from the official guides produced by the makers of the GMAT, most of the other study guides are just plain horrible. On the other hand, this book is top notch. It breaks down all of the major areas on sentence correction in an easy to read format and cross references problems in the official guide to hone your skills.

Sentence correct was my greatest weakness on the GMAT. In 2001 I took the GMAT and scored a 65% percentile on the verbal portion and this past January I scored in the 89% percentile. My only regret is that I did not get this book soon enough. I purchased this book two weeks before the test. Two weeks was enough time for me to cover everything in the book (and I am in law school with a horrid class load) but I wish I had it a few weeks earlier to practice more.

Another plus to the book is there is a link and code that gives you access to some online materials that will give you additional practice.

I do recommend you get the Official Guides to supplement this book. Every chapter has problems but the chapters also refer to real problems in the Official Guides which is a blessing to address weak points and to improve your skills.

On a negative note the price was a bit high at $30 but it was money well spent and I would pay that much again if I needed to. The price did not effect my rating - it helped my score and in the end that is what matters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concepts explained very well, April 8, 2006
I am surprised that this book is not as popular as it should be. I was looking for a refresher Grammar book to explain the concepts, but English Grammar is too vast. This book explains the grammatical concepts that are tested on the GMAT very well. I recommend using this book as a supplement though. You want to get practice on questions from other books. This book does refer to the Official GMAT book indicating which sentence correction questions test certain concepts.

The Kaplan book is really lousy explaining the concepts. The Princeton review explains it better but this book is even more detailed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful!, January 24, 2006
By Need a 700 (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
I'd read on a GMAT blog that the Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction Guide was the most helpful book out there for S.C. problems, and I can easily see why it has gotten that reputation! Very clear and analytical, broke the problems down in a way that I haven't seen elsewhere (and I own some of the big books), I found it very useful.
