Hello!
I’m sure many of you must face challenges similar to the ones I have faced. When I started my GMAT preparation, I was confident that I would score well. I scored 690 on the baseline mock, and followed it up with GMAT classes. In the 2nd mock, I score 680 and was quite disappointed. I realised that I needed help.
After some research on the available options, I spoke to Ankit, Crackverbal’s course advisor. Ankit suggested that I take up Crackverbal’s personalised tutoring sessions. I had not idea what a game-changer this would turn out to be.
From the very first session, I could tell that the approach here was different. My verbal mentor, Dipankar, had a unique strategy. He didn't believe in mindlessly practicing a large number of questions. Instead, he taught me how to identify and work on the flaws in my technique. At first, I was skeptical about his approach of spending hours “analysing” questions. But as I attended more classes, I realised that this approach helped me in ways I never thought possible. The teaching approach emphasised the need to attack the problem logically, which was the core of the process, rather than memorise concepts.
The plan was strategic and flexible, allowing us to reallocate time as needed during the process. I appreciate how our time together was distributed to address all three verbal segments while ensuring that the plan was tailored to my requirements. We did not spend too much time on RC, as it wasn't a problem area. Nevertheless, Dipankar periodically gave me practice assignments to ensure that I did not lose touch with RC.
For SC, we spent the right amount of time brushing up on concepts without getting too hung up on rules. We quickly identified my tendency to fall back on "this option sounds right!" and Dipankar helped me develop a systematic way to tackle more complex sentences. But it was CR that was the monkey on my back. I had decided that I would only practice CR during the classes, but I was guided otherwise. I learned that analysing each option of every question - and justifying the reason for selection/rejection - was the best way to identify where I was tripping up.
The GMAT learning experience was engaging, challenging, and effective. I received access to the complete learning platform. The study material helped me strengthen concepts in Quant too. As I progressed with my prep, I was introduced to new, redefined, and refreshing perspectives on GMAT questions. I also spent a couple of 1-on-1 sessions with Devmitra, the Quant mentor, who gave me the inputs needed to change my approach in inequalities.
In the next two official mocks, I scored a 760 & 750. But I knew I would be worried about my score until test day. Finally, on the day of the test, seeing 730 on the screen was a very rewarding feeling.
Preparing for the GMAT can be a daunting journey, but just staying consistent, solving only official questions, analysing choices, not overdoing a topic in the search for perfection, and taking inputs from mentors helped me get a good GMAT score. CrackVerbal has a fantastic team and I’m grateful to each one of them – Ankit, Arief, Arun Devmitra, Dipankar.
I hope this helps you on your GMAT journey. Good luck!
