About this title

From the Author

How is the GMAT SC Grail 3rd edition different from the 2nd edition ?Even if you already have the SC Grail 2nd edition, it still makes sense to buy the 3rd edition of the book. Here are some reasons why:

1. The 3rd edition covers advanced concepts such as Parallelism of Gerund Phrases and Action nouns, Conjunctive Adverbs and Run-on sentences, etc. 
2. The Usage section of the 3rd edition includes new concepts such as the use of only, the confusion between twice and double, greater and more, etc. 
3. The 125 question practice set in the 3rd edition has all brand new questions with no overlaps with questions in the SC Grail 2nd edition practice set. 
4. The Quick Recall section in the 3rd edition will save you the trouble of taking notes as it summarizes all the important SC rules and concepts in one place. 
5. The SC Grail 3rd edition book comes to you in hard copy making it much easier to read, mark, highlight, etc.
