Is this sentence grammatically correct?

@oristarA,

That is not a typo, were would be a typo. And your English is execrable, you wouldn't know a properly constructed sentence if it bit you on the arse.

Izzy exposes himself as a liar. He said he has me on ignore.

That was a deliberate typo in order to be funny. You've overreacted to a non-extant error as if it bit you on the arse. Poor izzy, you logic is execrable.

This time I don't agree with you. Centrox simply showed his humour:

Reread what he said:

Where does he where the badge? On his hat? On his shirt?

@Sydney-Strock,

It is agreed that the sentence is grammatically correct, and you admit that it seems awkward. " My participation in this program would be of benefit to me by providing me with a head start on my medical education. " That eliminates the awkwardness and does not sound to "stiff " for someone with the intelligence to pursue a medical career. "Coached"? Possibly. Well-coached? Hopefully.

I find the sentence a little awkward. I would say: "Participating in this program will give me a head start on my medical education." Less wordy.

@Sydney-Strock,

The sentence is grammatically correct, but there are better ways to phrase it for clarity and flow.

Here's why it's grammatically correct:

Subject (My participation)
Verb (will benefit)
Object (me)
Prepositional phrase (with a head start on my medical education)
However, "benefit with" can sound awkward. Here are some options for a smoother sentence:

Rephrased: "Participating in this program will give me a head start on my medical education." (This is more concise and uses stronger verbs.)
Active voice: "This program will benefit me by giving me a head start on my medical education." (This emphasizes the program's role.)
For an essay, the first option ("Participating...") is a strong choice. It's clear, concise, and avoids the potentially awkward "benefit with."

Good points you made here, Elizabeth. Thanks. Hope you stick around...especially for these kinds of questions.

Hi,

The sentence "My participation in this program will benefit me with a head start on my medical education" is grammatically correct but a bit awkward. The phrase "benefit me with" sounds unnatural. Grammatically, there’s no rule violation, but it could be clearer and more fluid.

A smoother alternative would be:

"My participation in this program will give me a head start on my medical education."
This version conveys the same meaning more directly and naturally. While your original sentence is technically fine for school, improving its clarity would make it sound better.
