Really appreciate any impartial replies from current, former Knewton students.
I am trying to decide whether Knewton is good for improving your GMAT verbal score expecially for non native speakers.
It dosent mean to say i dont know logical structure of sentences in English. I understand, write and speak well.
But for getting a good verbal score,( Currently V 26 mgmat ) say 40-42 in GMAT Verbal, i am trying to find out whether the coaching is any effective or will Knewton just teach you subject+verb, idioms, throw at you a bunch of practice material so on. Or does the coaching really help you improve your gmat verba.
I dont expect magic, i put in hard work but some coaching programs beat around the bush and dont help the student much.
I know Knewton teaches both math+verbal but i am focussed more on Verbal.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks Josh for providing the link,
However i have gone through the review already, BUT chambax the author admits that he was already doing well in Verbal and he was weak in Maths, i am quite the contrary.
My Verbal is what needs review and help, and thats where i am looking at Knewton, whether the coaching would provide ( not magical ) but actual results.
I know there is a 50 pt guarantee but i know i can improve in Verbal with the right guide from 26 to 38-40.
The reason i am looking at Knewton also has to do with its refreshingly new attitude instead of Mgmat highly priced tried approach.
If i was a native english speaker the situation would have been different, but being a non native english speaker, i am just concerned whether the teaching would benefit me.
Thanks.
