Possible mistakes in GMAT Sentence corrections

1. When three parties are involved check if the meaning of another, each other refer to each other correctly.

2.select direct and simple answers rather than wordy . for example , 'observing' is better than 'by observing'. ... ' considered ' is better than ' being considered'

**quickly testing it is far more direct than testing it quickly

3. singular and pronoun shd match . pronouns refer to the subject of the sentences.

4. sprang, brang are not valid form of verbs. did not spring is more appropriate

5. for describing options whether is more appropriate, for describing hypothetical situation if is appropriate

6. dangling modifiers like 'with assistance of informants ', must modify the word following it
