This week, I’m sharing another sentence correction tip involving splits: not the splits that professional gymnasts perform with elegance, but the kind you do with your GMAT answer choices!
And as usual, here’s a still of this week’s board work:
I find many difficult problems in SC that completely change the order of words in the sentence. Can we still use splits in some form on those sentences?
Great question! I know the questions that you are talking about. These are some of the more challenging questions because the splits are not obvious or not present. In those cases, you’ll need to rely on other strategies to answer the question. But try to find some type of split in the beginning. Spend 10-15 seconds seeing if there are easy ways to group answer choices. If nothing presents itself after some effort, move on to other strategies. 😀
