My Verbal score is 28 , need tips to improve...and suggestion for the time gap between first and second GMAT attempt

Hi Kannu25,

To score well in verbal your vocabulary has to be strong.It would be best if you start reading articles, science journals , business tabloids and read them online and figure out for yourself if you can understand the language and the main idea present in the passage. This would be a better way to tackle vocabulary on the GMAT. Idioms have been posted on this forum , do have a look at them.

For CR, you need to understand & gauge what question types you are getting wrong most frequently. Then, you can work on & practice the question types you are facing problems with.If you are targeting to score high in Verbal, it is important that you get to the Verbal section stress free. So, make sure that you don't carry the stress & pressure of the previous sections to the Verbal section.

You can refer to the Official Guide Verbal Review for your practice.You can purchase the Question Pack, which will provide you with new questions and increased computer-based functionality.To crack GMAT, you also need to buy strategy guides if you don't have one.

Hope this helps.Good Luck

Thank you the list, though it hasn't been updated in some time, it still looks pretty relevant.

I have read many of the reviews, but I can't see to decide which prep course to move forward with.
My main weakness is the verbal section and I am leaning with e-GMAT because it seems to make the basic concepts simple.
Does anyone have any experience or recommendation on my situation?

Also, it seems as the Knewton program has been shut down since 2014. I feel like maybe it's just me since it says the front page was last updated in October 2015.

Hi Kurai,

When it comes to studying for the GMAT, there are a variety of different options. Most GMAT Companies offer some type of free materials (practice problems, Trial Accounts, videos, etc.) that you can use to 'test out' a product before you buy it. We have a variety of those resources at our website (www.empowergmat.com). I suggest that you take advantage of all of them then choose the one that best matches your personality, timeline and budget.

If you have any additional question, then just let me know.

It isn't a prep course, but another good GMAT prep is Noodle Pros tutors. Check them out!

Thanks for your feedback! I see they have an app to study and practice. Can you just take the course on your own device or so you actually have to buy another tablet?

No bb, Byju's only offers TABLET and that too for a particular duration depending on the charge and to keep the tablet for further use, student has to pay more. We CANNOT see or use the data on computer but JUST use the tablet - to see videos, to read from pdfs and to give CATs. And yes when you return the tablet again pay for courier service - In this amount, we can buy veritas or gmatclub CATs

Note: Every aspirant should first research a lot and then opt for a course depending on the needs. Money is just one aspect but researching before buying/using a course helps you save TIME, save you from learning something that is not tested and most importantly save you from developing bad habits and processes of doing questions.

Interesting - just saw an article about Byju's - they are definitely painting a very different picture in the press:

I am planning to take up my GMAT. But I am very new and I have never taken it before. I have 12 years of experience and am based out of India. Can you please suggest me the best GMAT coaching institute where they provide virtual online classes? What do you suggest about TPU?

Thanks

Are we going to get any additional discounts than what is posted in their websites by using gmatclub deals? Because I was checking price of magoosh, I think the offer given in their website is same as the one mentioned in gmatclub deals.
