The sentence "She gets ready hard for an exam" is grammatically correct, but it could be improved for clarity and cohesion. Here's how you can analyze the sentence to check its grammaticality:
1. Subject-Verb Agreement: The subject "she" agrees with the verb "gets ready."
2. Adverb Placement: The adverb "hard" is correctly placed after the verb "gets ready."
