GMAT Sentence Correction (SC) | Re: Some experts now believe that it is the duration of high une

Nks2611, I think souvik101990 has it right: "termed to be" seems wordy and unidiomatic, much like "considered to be." There's just no need for the extra "to be" in either case.

To be fair, I've never seen "termed to be" on an official GMAT question, but I suppose that it would be fair game.
