It is worth it. Give the trial a go. 7 days free will give you enough usage tinelt you know that it is actually worth it. Also their mocks are very good. Several colleges have their mocks on their website. Good luck !

They do have a 7-day trial. Good point. Also, they have recently updated the course with new material and features so hope it helps with gmat score improvement.

Hi ameegupta,

Your profile includes a score of 700/Q46. Is that an Official Score or a practice CAT Score? I ask because if that is an Official Score, then you already have an outstanding result (which is just a bit shy of the 90th percentile overall), so you can comfortably apply to any Business Schools that interest you. By extension, a retest is probably not necessary. If you're looking to raise your Quant Scaled Score (and by extension, your Overall Score), then you could focus solely on Quant Tactics for a couple of weeks and potentially make those improvements.

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

1) How long have you studied?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) What is your goal score?
4) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
5) What Schools are you planning to apply to?

Thats an official score. I have sent you a personal message regarding the information you asked. I got a lower than expected quant score. So i wish to improve my quant score considerably while atleast maintaining my verbal score. Additionally i got a low IR score that i am a little concerned about.

If low quant score is your concern, I would suggest you rather go for TTP. I have tried a lot of courses but trust me, this one will get you where you need to be. also, they have a 5 days trial for the entire course

Not sure if it is a coincidence or my email is being monitored :oops: but just got a Flash Sale notification from The Economist for 15% off: SURPRISE15

Seems to be the same promo discount they are applying to GMAT Club's promo code:
