Why don't you try practicing your grammar and punctuation here?

I wouldnt have a problem with that, but if someone wants to coach me, point out my mistakes and how I could correct them, like an english teacher would. Im most definitely open to constructive criticism.

You said it!

Gotcha! Amazing how much my grammar and sentence structure has slipped since freshman English.

Got a 6 on the GRE writing section and tanked on the verbal part. The quantitative part was significantly easier.

My suggestion is to take the test as early and as often as possible. Practice helps more than studying (at least it did for me). Good luck!
