GMAT Prep - Verbal - Sentence Correction - Pronouns with Compound Antecedents by Knewton

[Alyssa18326]

concise and very effective.

[myb7ls]

(We think that Joe and Reg should make up a game plan and stick to them) find the pronoun and the antecedent for that....



[myb7ls]

so is neither single?



[ooimizuoo]

For the second example:

Either Jack or Jill should receive First Prize for their painting.

can you please explain why you would use "her painting" and not "his/her painting"?

Thanks!!

[Ingenue001]

good video but don't you think your videos should be much longer and encompass more questions... and you can talk abt some exceptions to the rule also. I believe 2 min is little too less to explore a rule properly

Btw.. Good work :-)....that you are using online media to reach to wider segment.

[lld1903]

Very clear to understand.

[cowboybill104]

Nice and informative. Glare on the speaker's glasses is a little distracting.

[viky1147]

It is clear about the content and it is usefull.

[ConcordTurk]

Good writing is a hard earned skill. This video helped a lot. That's why I watched it three times.

Until now, I always found this difficult to understand. Thanks to this video, including great, simply understandable examples, now I've really got it. Amazing work.

[dieallyou]

This video really helps understand the topic easily because of the great examples included, especially that of Jack or Jill.

[Ptrimmr]

Clear information. Personally, I would like the presenter to speak a little more slowly. Graphics could have been better. Too much information thrown up all at once. The few seconds it took to identify which was the pronoun and which the antecedent was enough to be distracting.

[bbharathiraj]

it is very clear presentation about grammar,it is very useful to others,it is simple and great

[Iamafanofmadonna]

A very focused presentation.Ideal for a quick refresher.

Overall, this is very helpful. The "corrected" Jack and Jill sentence is a bit ambiguous, though. I would prefer a more straightforward example.

[vipulsatya]

Accurate and informative, children and people new to the English language should see.
