Pronoun case (subjective vs. objective)

SAT Glossary

I/he/she/we/they/who perform the verb; me/him/her/us/them/whom receive the action or follow a preposition (to, for, between, with, among). The case is set by the pronoun's job inside its own clause, not by what sits before it — 'the committee selected whom' survives even with a noun placed right before the blank to suggest otherwise.
