640 to 720 in 2 months along with a full time consulting job

I took my first GMAT attempt after preparing from a renowned course but ended up with only 640. So, I decided to retake the GMAT because I wanted to score a 700+. This time, I did not want to drag my prep for too long and gave myself only two months before my second attempt. GMATWhiz was the perfect course for me mainly because of how well it is structured. I religiously followed the study plan the platform had built for me and did exactly what my mentor advised at every stage. For instance, my accuracy in Verbal was quite low. I was advised to start with SC first, then CR and then RC. I was so well versed with GMAT Verbal by the time I finished with the CR module that I did not need any prep for RC. I could simply use my learnings from SC & CR to accurately solve RC questions. It was amazing.

The feature that I found the most helpful is the GMATWhiz AI. Since I had only 60 days to prepare, the AI allowed me to directly start with my prep. The platform asked me a few questions initially related to my time available and target score etc and that was it. It gave me a detailed study plan which I followed consistently and diligently. Another thing that I found helpful was the detailed solutions to questions on the platform. That helped me to quickly understand where I went wrong. In the previous course that I used, I was never told that there is a correct method of reading sentences too. I knew that understanding the meaning of a sentence is important but even that has a depth to it which I learned at GMATWhiz.

Also, the mocks were so GMAT-like. The score prediction on my mocks was quite close to what I actually got. It also helped validate that I was going in the right direction prep wise.

One thing that I feel was quite important in my journey to GMAT 720 is that in my previous attempt I was pretty much on my own. I had no clue about so many aspects of GMAT prep such as the right order of learning or the right time to take mocks. This time, I had a mentor who guided me well.

We divided my 60 days of prep into 4 sets of 15 days each and went exactly as per the plan. I can say that my prep journey was pretty smooth. I don’t recall getting nervous at any stage because I knew we were getting things done at the right pace without skipping a topic.

Overall, GMATWhiz has been a special part of my journey because the aggressive approach I took is not what most students might be comfortable doing. Only a personalized course could help me in my special scenario, and I believe I utilized the personalization feature in the best of my capacity. I improved from V27 to V40 and got a 720 overall in just 2 months with the help of the course and constant guidance from my mentors Piyush and Shreyyash. Thank you GMATWhiz for the full proof plan! Highly recommend!
