Questions people ask before choosing this path

Is Sentence Correction still on the GMAT?

No. The Verbal Reasoning section is composed of Reading Comprehension and Critical Reasoning questions. If your prep material has a Sentence Correction chapter, it was written for an older version of the exam.

What should I study instead?

The 23 Verbal questions are Reading Comprehension and Critical Reasoning. Critical Reasoning rewards a specific set of moves — strengthen, weaken, assumption, useful to evaluate, and explain the paradox — which is a far more trainable list than the idiom memorization Sentence Correction used to require.

Does grammar knowledge still help anywhere on the exam?

Only indirectly, through reading speed and accuracy on dense passages. There are no questions that ask you to select a grammatically correct rewrite.

How long is the current GMAT?

2 hours 15 minutes for 64 questions across three 45-minute sections, plus one optional 10-minute break. You choose the section order.
