This review is for:  GMAT Pill - 6 Pill Combo Course | Location:   Online |
I had been studying GMAT for a grueling 2 years. I tried everything including Manhattan GMAT's two week intensive course, private lessons, Bell Curves, etc--even got a PhD in linguistics to help me on verbal. All of these resources were good, but I still bombed the test.

I was about to give up but then I heard about GMAT Pill and considered it my last chance before I officially give up and run out of money.

Turns out signing up for the GMAT Pill program was the best thing I ever did. Actually, I should have done that first.

The so-called past perfect, present perfect terms that MGMAT taught me were really unnecessary. After seeing things the GMAT Pill way, I was surprised how easy some of the concepts actually are compared to how frightening they used to seem.

I basically had GMAT Pill almost as a tutor anywhere and anytime. With tutoring, it was hard to get a tutor to come in at 9pm on a weekend. But with this program, I had access to Zeke at any time. If I had a question, I would post it and get a response. You can also see they've responded to tons of other questions in a timely manner.

I didn't get a chance to use the GMAT Pill HD iPad app before my exam, but from what I've heard, it's pretty neat. Wish I had a chance to use it before my test but given my results, I'm quite happy.

I made it to Oxford for my MBA afterall!

Scored a 720 on my GMAT - Thanks GMATPill !!‏

I just took my GMAT and was ecstatic to see that I scored a 720 (Q49, V39). I would have never been able to do this without the crisp, easy to understand and effective instruction videos available at GMATPill.

I learned about GMAT Pill when I was looking for good strategies to improve my skills on the verbal section. Obviously, I was initially hesitant to sign up for this program just because I had never heard of them and didn't know anyone who had used their program. However, after going through numerous reviews on GMATPill website, on GMAT Forum and out on the internet, I decided to signup for their program. I was also impressed by their "no advertising" policy and the pricing on the 6 Pill combo pack - Can't beat that price for private tutoring from a Stanford graduate!!

I went through numerous GMAT study guides and I can certainly vouch that GMAT Pill is the best out of all of them. This is one of the few programs that target specific question types in both the verbal and math section. I was able to accurately answer the majority of questions within a very short period of time using GMAT Pill's strategies.

I highly recommend GMAT Pill to anyone who is seriously considering getting into a 700+. I believe this is the course that offers the best value at the best price!

Hi--I'm not an active member of GMATClub, but I've actually been a recent student of GMATPill! Honestly, I love it so much that I emailed over a personal testimonial to Zeke because I think he deserves it!

Well, Zeke mentioned this forum to me and asked if I could just copy and paste what I emailed him to this post, so here it is:


Hi Zeke,

Thank you so much for setting up such a good GMAT course!!

Im an international student from HK. A month ago, i had questions on a GMAT Math question. Hence, i googled it. Then, i found your demo GMAT Pill explanation video on that question. After watching the video, i was like WOW. The video is to the point and easy to understand. i was curious what GMAT Pill was. Therefore, i watched all other demo videos. As an international student, i'm struggling with reading and critical reasoning. i am so amazed with Zeke's reading strategies. Hence, i signed up for GMAT Pill.

As a matter of fact, initially, i was hesitant about getting GMAT Pill. Because i had never heard of GMAT Pill. Most people in HK just know Kaplan and Princeton review. MGMAT has just recently come to HK. but MGMAT is so expensive (around hk$7000)!!!! i don't think HK people will spend that much on a GMAT course. Plus, i watched some MGMAT demo videos. Their pace is so slow. i feel like it is a waste of time. GMAT Pill is efficient and effective. GMAT Pill is way cheaper than other courses too. i was thinking if i had to retake GMAT, it would cost US$250. Then why don't I invest the time and money in a course? Plus, GMAT Pill guarantees a 50 point score guarantee.

In fact, at the beginning, i thought about using GMAT Pill for two months and returning it to get my money back. I know i'm just a jerk! but after using GMAT Pill for a month,i really have no reason to return it!! you are so good too!! you always reply my questions within one to two days, even in the weekends. Furthermore, my English has improved significantly in this month. Thanks a lot!! i really appreciate it.

i would definitely recommend GMAT Pill to my HK friends. It works perfect even for international students.

If you want to hear more about my personal experience, feel free to msg me. I'd be happy to help!

GMAT Pill -- I will definitely recommend it for verbal

I bought only the verbal package only a few days back.

In the last few days I went through a few SC videos and found those really helpful.Not sure about the quant, but I'll definitely recommend it for verbal.

And for SC I thought a combination of gmatpill and MGMAT would be the best.

GMAT Pill -- It is pretty solid - especially verbal course

yea..it's pretty solid - especially the verbal course. I heard lots of good stories before I took it and now I see why. The focus is on thought process.

I think the Reading Comprehension is unique since most other programs don't teach it that way. The SC was definitely helpful. The quant is also good too--just not AS awesome as the verbal pills. Just look at their website - they have a lot of free teaser videos.

best material for GMAT

this is the best material for gmat i have ever come across. Hats off to Zeke. The Verbal section alone make my score jump by 100.
I was having tough time improving my SC. My accuracy was highly fluctuating in SC and RC sections. Usually i dont believe in money back kind of offer but I read in Gmatclub that Gmatpill is genuine. So, I thought of giving it a try.
I took the Verbal package.
After watching the SC vedio I felt great comfort in the section. In short it was amazing experience. It worth much more than it costs.
I was not worried for CR. I knew that if I can do good in SC i can save a lot of time for RC. I went through RC section and I like Zeke's idea of cutting fuff. Indeed watching video is very efficient way to learn in very less time. Though i could not invest much time for RC Pill section still it improved my accuracy and saved me some time.

I could score more than 700 finally.

Thank you Zeke

Compared to other programs I paid $1500 for - this one was cheaper AND better. I wish I knew about it earlier.

Sure the other programs have more face-to-face interaction but I actually found this method to be a lot more efficient and effective.

GMAT Pill has probably the only good reading comprehension resource on the market. I've used to get lost in reading passages - now, I am able to get 80% correct - and even get some questions correct that I don't even totally understand.

Thank you GMAT Pill. I just wish I knew about it earlier so I didn't have to waste $1500 elsewhere.

I've been trying different GMAT materials and have to admit GMAT Pill is realllllly gooooood!!

Here are a few things I was able to do:

- watch videos and use their interactive question platform on any device - including PC/Macs, tablets, smartphones. They even have an iPad app - it's relatively new - but you can download videos and watch them WITHOUT an internet connection. I thought this was super cool.

- Post questions and get responses. They're actually pretty responsive and you can see comments or questions that other people post as well as GMAT Pill's responses.

- Online workbook to automatically keep track of questions you got right or wrong. You can also favorite/flag specific questions for review later. This was helpful for me to review my mistakes.

- Really good Integrated Reasoning videos. I couldn't find much on IR elsewhere and GMAT Pill seems to be the only one that has such a great resource that actually mimics the test interface.

Of course the actual instruction is so much easier to understand than other programs I've looked at. I could easily see the price of this program going up over time. You definitely get a lot more than what you'd expect for the price.

I sent this email to Zeke thanking him for the major upgrade to the Critical Reasoning Pill.

I had been bugging GMAT Pill to release it sooner - and they did - but more a week!

He asked if I could post what I emailed to him here so I copy and pasted!

--------------

Hello Zeke!

Thank you so much for rushing it out! The Table Top Frameworks for Critical Reasoning came at the PERFECT time! I am 90% through it!

The new upgraded section is just AWESOME!

Now i can visualize in my mind and as what you said, 'package' it into the Table-Top Framework!

Zeke, you are a GENIUS!

You know, there have been many instances where i just couldnt understand the OG explanation, for example- The Vernland TV Assemblers [A depends on what assumption type of question].
When i applied the concept you put across, everything just clicks into place now!

My task now is to apply whatever you taught in this new section onto questions, and if my memory doesnt fail me, whatever that you have covered is quite a good representative of the types of questions that i have seen so far in the OG!

This upgrade really BOOSTED my confidence now, since CR is the last section that i am reviewing for Verbal!

I am looking forward to future upgrades in Quant pills! Are there any?? ;)

Woohoo!!! V45 Q50 Here i come!!!

Reagan

Must have for all GMAT takers, especially ESLs!

I highly recommand GMAT pill for all you guys/girls out there!

After taking the pill, I got 730(Q:50, V:39) in my first gmat test (I don't see myself doing it again).
For an ESL like me, sentence correction was a great problem for me. After I took the sentence correction pill, I have improved dramatically. The method taught in the SC pill is perfect for cracking this kind of problem. I think it is a must have for all the gmat test takers, especially the ESLs.

Considering its price, gmat pill is definitely is the best choice for those who have limited budget but still want to get a high score.
