Strengths:

Unlike other products, E-GMAT helped me a lot in the verbal section in a very structured approach!

Would make the product better:

Nothing it is perfect

E-GMAT. Hands down the best platform I have encountered. After trying 2 other famous providers, solving all the OG questions multiple times and attempting the GMAT examination three times, I was introduced to the E-GMAT platform by a friend who managed to secure a 760 by studying with E-GMAT. To be honest I was frustrated and lost before encountering E-GMAT. Nothing would work for me especially in the verbal section. Prior to E-GMAT, I did not even know that there was a structured methodology to deal with the verbal section. Having dyslexia, I could not navigate in an adequate manner through the RC passages. CR was a nightmare as I didn’t know how to approach the questions and extrapolate a solution. SC was convoluted. Long story short the verbal section was chaotic. First thing I did when I purchased my E-GMAT subscription of GMAT Online on Dec 2nd, 2023, was to let go of everything I had done and go through all the sections in detail. For me the real game changer was the learnings deduced from the Verbal teachings. SC was a hard section for me as I thought that by relying solely on grammar I would prevail in the test. I couldn’t be more wrong. E-GMAT taught me that meaning is the most important factor that separates the great from the best in SC. The strategies that I learned and employed helped me deduce the meaning in SC texts and master the concept. In CR the most important methodology that I learned was the pre-thinking approach. This approach is a groundbreaking approach that no other platform teaches. This approach teaches how to arrive at solid answers before even looking at the solutions. With this methodology I was able to navigate through the CR questions in a structured manner and greatly improve my ability in solving CR questions. Last but not least I had to deal with my arch enemy, the RC. It was a living nightmare in the beginning. The vast texts seemed undefeatable. However, in the master and reading comprehension sections I learned how to deduce meaning, increase my comprehension and cruises through texts in the most efficient manner possible. I cannot stress it enough, the E-GMAT was a game changer in the verbal section!!!!! When it comes to quant, the PACE software enabled me to be time efficient with the topics I knew well and save precious time, time that I would dedicate later on mastering medium and hard questions. Before E-GMAT I thought that I could tackle hard questions in an efficient manner. That was not true. The quant problems faced in E-GMAT are way harder than OG. Although I faltered a lot in the beginning, I trusted the process and pushed forward. One thing that other platforms lacked was a detailed explanation of the answer. At E-GMAT the methodology of arriving at the solutions is crystal clear for each question! As I said the content was challenging but there are only things to gain by training yourself with hard questions. It is always better to be prepared for the worse. Moving on E-GMAT highlighted the significance of maintaining an error log. Knowledge comes from revising errors and avoiding repeating mistakes. Moreover, Scholaranium is the perfect place to hones one’s skills. Scholaranium is a platform embedded in the E-GMAT that analyzes every single parameter of one’s attempts. It provides useful insights on matters that deem improvement. In addition to the above E-GMAT fosters a program called the Last Mile Push for ambitious students that are willing to do everything in their power to achieve success. In this program one is assigned a mentor that provides guidance on how to improve. I was very fortunate to be assigned with Rashmi. What can I say. Anything stated would be an understatement. Rashmi helped me on a daily basis to unlock my potential and rise above any previous performance. This mentorship elevated my skills and confidence at a level previously unimaginable. Having honed my skills through cementing and custom quizzes and having utilized the data analytics that Scholaranium offers I was ready to head on to the mock phase. At this point it is worth mentioning that in the first mock that I took before I started with my preparation, I scored a 620. After a month of preparation, I was able to score consistently above 700. Every time that I took a mock and gazed at the results, I felt confident but also felt motivated to improve even further. With the invaluable guidance of Rashmi and my persistence, I was able to score a 700 on test day. That’s an 80 point improvement in a months’ time guys! It is fair to say that without E-GMAT and Rashmi I wouldn’t be able to perform at such a high level. If you ask me if E-GMAT is worth it, I will respond definitely. Every aspect of the platform is about unlocking one’s potential with the aim of dominating the real deal. I feel that I could not materialize my dreams of getting admitted into a good business school with out E-GMAT. By and large if you are wondering whether to proceed with E-GMAT, I am urging you to do so as you won’t be disappointed. My closing remarks are: follow exactly everything that you are instructed to do in the manner you are instructed even if it may seem redundant and pay close attention on how to parse information on the error log as it will help you improve on a scaling manner. The insights in verbal and quant, the methodology employed, and the guidance of Rashmi are what helped me achieve 700. Seeing consistent improvement is an unparalleled feeling and I did not see any consistency in my improvement prior to enrolling at the E-GMAT platform.
