We have released a new navigation menu today. Would love to hear everyone's thoughts about it. I understand that for some who are used to using it on a daily basis (myself included) a change is always a hassle but I hope you can appreciate some new helpful features it has.
Thank you for your time and thoughts.

okay here is my feedback:
1. I wouldn't use for example MARKETPLACE and DEALS separately. Market is where deals are. its very confusing.
2. I would replace word "deals" with something more relevant to education, DEALS is too generic. I would replace it with BuyStudyMaterials
3. If i click on GMAT i see (Deals, ADS, mobile applications, retaking GMAT, GMAT tutor ... too much info for mega navigation menu- I wouldnt use so much information here IMO "the less is the more" leave only the key information, its nav menu )
i would replace GMAT button with StartGMATride or journey …depends
Start GMAT Prep
4. FORUM i do think you need to create seperate button for business school and put all relevant information including all bschools discussions there. Business schools should definately have separate button on main nav manu.
JoinForums sounds better (once clicked - we need to see PS, DS, RC and SC - no need to add more info) this is the key info.
5. REVIEWES should go under the section BuyStudyMaterials i would combine them
6. I would add GMATClubStore button in nav menu Why? GmatClub has its own designed GMAT test - it is product and should positioned accordingly.
7. All bschool discussions (incl the ones under FORUM) should be under COMPARE BSCHOOLS
So here how i would make a navigation menu
JoinForums StartGMATJourney BuyStudyMaterials Compare BSchools Chat GMATClubStore the above nav menu looks more practical, organized, and motivational compared to the updated one
cheers,
