Problems:
* Missing words: The sentence is missing words to complete the thought. It seems to be missing a verb after "brilliant," and likely a conjunction to connect the two clauses.
* Awkward structure: The phrase "she was may never be" is grammatically incorrect and doesn't make sense.
Corrected Sentence:
"If it was the exact mix of experience and natural talent that made Austen brilliant, it may never be replicated."
Explanation:
* We added the verb "be" after "brilliant" to complete the first clause.
* We replaced "she was may never be" with "it may never be replicated" to create a grammatically correct and logical statement.
* We also replaced "was" with "it was" to maintain consistency with the earlier part of the sentence.
The corrected sentence now reads smoothly and makes sense.
