Dear teachers,

Does the following sentence work?

To me the most dreadful thing is that the poorer you were the worse the treament you got.

(Looking back at the past)

I'd really be grateful for your answer.

Yours,
Crisi

I would use was instead of is. And I would omit the after worse. And treatment has three t's.
