As part of Sentence Correction, can one please throw some light on what pointers one has to keep in mind to determine parallelism .

How should one decide on when to check for parallelism and when not to.

Parallelism, is an important thing covered as part of GMAT exams' Sentence Correction section. It would be great if one could answer this question in the specific context of GMAT.

Any links would also help.

Thank you.

Hi boddhisattva, welcome to ELU. I think this will soon get closed as Off Topic. I suppose you could start by checking for parallelism in GMAT exam questions, but I don't see why this has anything to do with "Sentence Correction" (whatever that means to you). – FumbleFingers Oct 24 '12 at 3:22
@FumbleFingers Thanks, I was looking for an answer in the context of Sentence correction, nevertheless, I am open to an answer that could explain the do's/dont's of parallelism in day to day English usage as well.. – boddhisattva Oct 24 '12 at 5:45
