Magoosh score guarantee GMAT Economist Tutor? Which is a better course for score guarantee? Please suggest.


Well, the courses that offer money-back guarantees are:
1. Magoosh - priced at $99 with 50-point guarantee. The exact guarantee terms are here
2. eGMAT - priced at $329 with a 4-point guarantee (Verbal only). The exact terms are here
3. GMAT Pill - $397 with 50-point guarantee. The exact terms are here
4. Knewton - priced at $350 (Special price until end of Feb) with 50 point guarantee. The exact terms are here
5. The Economist GMAT Tutor - priced at $550 - 940 and comes with either 50 or 70 point money back guarantee. The exact terms are here.
6. Optimus Prep - priced at $1,840+ and comes with a 50-point money back guarantee (This is Private Tutoring rather than a course). The exact terms are here.

All have different terms. Magoosh only provides a guarantee if you have already taken the GMAT. The Economist allows you to take a practice test as a baseline. Knewton does as well. Between The Economist and Magoosh, The Economist seems to have a more relaxed policy for the guarantee (not every single question has to be answered and reviewed, unlike Magoosh and Knewton require)... They also offer the highest guarantee - 70 points!
Good luck!
If you sign up via GMAT Club (link: https://gmatclub.com/blog/courses/the-ec ... t/?fl=menu) you get 10% off, and 6 months of GMAT Club tests free - that's a great deal!

Magoosh score guarantee GMAT Economist Tutor? Which is a better course for score guarantee? Please suggest.


The course suitability to one individual depends on one's suitability and adaptability to a course.

Some like course A others like course B.

So I would suggest experience the trail of each course and then select accordingly.

And to bring it to your notice, you have posted the thread under wrong forum. So, I am moving the topic to relevant forum.

Rgds,
TGC!

If you are interested in a score guarantee for private tutoring, we are the only GMAT tutoring provider on the planet that offers a meaningful one. We have a 100% success rate for students who follow all of our instructions.

All other score guarantees are for group classes, and they only guarantee that your score will go up by a nonzero amount. Of course it's going to go up if you study at all! Moreover, they do not offer a cash refund; They only offer you admission to another class. (But why would you repeat if it didn't work the first time?)

All factory test-prep companies take a "shotgun" approach to score guarantees. For example: Offer a generic score guarantee (not customized to the student's unique situation) for a course to 1000 students, 300 of which will hit their target because of the course, 300 of which would have hit their target with or without the course, and 400 of which won't hit their target, give refunds to the 400 who don't, profit.

We guarantee you a *specific* score, and we customize every single Score Guarantee package based on your unique situation.
