GMAT PILL PROBLEM!

Question

Hi,

So after careful deliberation between EmpowerGMAT and GMAT Pill I took the plunge for GMAT pill.

Only after paying it do I find that I cannot access any of the paid material and my account shows that I've not purchased anything!

I've the receipt and transaction on my credit card and have emailed both the support and PM'd Zeke Lee with ZERO response!

This is just unacceptable!

Well, I personally never heard the name of GMAT pill before you mentioned so can't comment on anything. When I searched the name, the company turned out to be in operation for a decade or so. So I will recommend you to wait and see whether your query is been thoroughly considered or not. Moreover I found this link at GMAT club, which might be of your help. Because second last post in this forum contain GMAT pill GC ID. Its not active since march but you can drop your query out there as well. Hopefully it get resolved soon. Good luck

Hi taimoorjamal,

I'm sorry to hear about the purchase issue that you're currently facing. Regardless of how you choose to continue your studies, I'll be happy to answer any questions that you might have. Before I can offer you any advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?

Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Hi taimoorjamal,

A 540 is a solid initial CAT score (the average score on the Official GMAT hovers around 550 most years). Many GMATers spend 3 months (or more) of consistent study time before they hit their 'peak' scores, so since you've been studying for just about 1 month, you should not expect to have mastered any of the content yet. Statistically-speaking, raising a 540 to the point that you can consistently score 690+ will likely require at least another 3 months of consistent, guided study - and you'll have to make significant improvements to how you handle BOTH the Quant and Verbal sections. Thankfully, the GMAT is a consistent, predictable Exam, so you CAN train to score at a higher level. You might need to consider pushing back your Test Date, but you don't have to decide on that issue either way just yet.

While you have not named any specific Programs, the Top 20 Schools that you might be considering are all highly-competitive, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. Those Experts should be able to answer your Admissions questions and help define the specific areas of your profile that could use some improvement.

There's a Forum full of those Experts here:

If you're still looking for a GMAT Course, then it's worth noting that 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 questions, then you can feel free to PM me directly at any time.
