I had scored 670 in my first GMAT attempt. Verbal score was a disappointing V32. Since I was already in my tempo of preparation, I thought I would attempt the GMAT again in the next 1 month. This time I decided to go ahead with e-GMAT's verbal live prep course as I had heard a lot of positive things about the same. Having said that, I was certain of one thing- content wise I was ready, I needed to fine-tune my approach in Verbal and do the questions the right way. Thats where e-GMAT turned out to be very useful. Considering the fact that I am a non-native speaker, after going through the e-GMAT videos, I started approaching CR and SC in a structured manner. Every question type in CR was to be approached in a specific manner which I realized after going through the content. The best part is that the justification for each question is explained very systematically. Finally, I ended up with a 50 point improvement, totally due to verbal as my quantitative section score was the same in both my attempts.

I was preparing for GMAT for a while now but nothing scared me more than Sentence Correction. I tried learning from different sources but nothing much helped. So after going through the reviews of E-Gmat in different forums, I thought of giving it a try.

Believe me, there is not a better material than E-Gmat verbal videos. They are short, crisp, and to the point. After each lesson, there will be quiz where one may check their understanding of a particular lesson. The best thing about this is that you may post your queries on forum regarding the questions or any particular concept. Every question may be analyzed differently by different students and this is where this works beautifully. You may post your doubts even after reviewing the solution as you may had analyzed it differently and your queries will be answered by experts.

The second best thing about it is the videos structure. The videos are short, approximately around 15 mins on average. This really helps working guys like me who cannot devote longer hours due to tight work schedule. They have followed this strategy across the whole course from maths to verbal.

Overall this course is pretty much balanced.This course is best for anyone who wishes to excel in SC. . The Scholarinium will greatly help u to analyze your mistakes and to improve your efficiency.

Go for it...

In my 1st attempt I had scored a Q49, and in 2nd attempt Q47. The time lag between 1st and 2nd attempt was very long. Moreover, I didn't focus much on quant. But during my 3rd attempt, in which I scored Q50, I focused a lot on the e-gmat Quant course. The concept files have some very good fundamentals, which I lacked a lot.
The live sessions have very focused set of questions. They specifically test the required areas. Initially I took 3-4 minutes to solve a question of live session. As I focused more on the fundamentals, my accuracy and my pace increased to the optimum level.
The Scholaranium platform of e-gmat has even better questions. At Very Hard level the questions really get very competitive. The skill data set of the Scholaranium provides good graphic displays that allow students to track their performance. That approach worked very good for me. Every green mark in the skill data set was a hurray, and every red mark was an alert to focus more on that section.
Going step by step with the course should help students to score desired score in quant section.

I really liked the structured approach to SC,and CR and the way it has been explained in throughout the course.

I completed the course a month back and really loved it , tough I was not able to make the best use of it as i had to postpone my GMAT date due to personal reasons and my subscription expired before I could make the best use of the course and the scholaranium of e gmat.

But , nonetheless the course was good and I really liked the technique used to impart the knowledge, The pattern how the contents unfold ,and even the basic level of the topic is covered .

For a non native user it is really very helpful as it provides with knowledge ,which is not available in other courses.

I'm not a native speaker but since I had pretty high TOEFL scores (115 out of 120) and I was an English major, I didn't think GMAT verbal should be too hard. However, I got stuck with V31 from the official mock test till 3 months later when I took my first official test (still stuck at V31). During the 3 months of my preparation I went to a GMAT in person course (of 20 people) in my country and learned the tips to sentence correction--mostly focusing on grammar, comparison between the two similar options and other tips such as "don't choose the sentence with ',with' (with after a comma)".

While the tips helped me get to the 600s, I checked my ESR and realized that I could never get a 700 level SC question right. Another problem was that, since I was too busy using the tips, I didn't really think about the meaning of the sentence, so I would often get tricked by the false parallelism.

Payal in E-gmat helped me in the foundation concept of sentence correction to break down the long sentences and calm down to see what is the main information the sentence is trying to convey. The rest of the information are just "noise", to distract you from the main sentence. By breaking down the sentence, I learned to read much faster and understood the meaning of the sentence. It also helped me to locate the subject and verb much easily, which is important since subject verb agreement is such a big test focus. Finally, I concentrated much more on what the different modifiers are trying to modify, so I wouldn't be tricked by the different placements of modifiers.

Another big takeaway for me was the modifier courses, especially on VERB-ed and VERB-ing modifiers. It made me realize that I never really understood how VERB-ing modifiers could change the meaning of the sentence, or the relationship between the subject and verb would be illogical.

To sum up, E-gmat's sentence correction course helped me break down long sentences to really understand the meaning of the sentence. The course in turn also helped improve my reading comprehension skills, either for CR or RC. E-gmat helped me improve my verbal from 31 to 36 in 3 months, more than my original method using tips and grammatical rules did. Thank you e-gmat!

Not having used GMAT style English at work for a very long time (being a specialist doctor), the Verbal section was not an easy task. During the initial stages of my preparation, the SC and the CR were getting tricky (I had started doing the OG)

So based on reviews on the web (gmat club, beat the gmat), I enrolled for the e-gmat course, Verbal online.

Course structure: The structure of the course is very helpful, starting from the basics and progressing in difficulty.

Content: The content is very elaborate and extensive. In fact, the course covers almost everything the GMAT asks.

Questions: The questions are of all difficulty levels, but arranged in a very good format such that you get a mixture of all levels, as in the real exam.

Scholaranium: This concept is very helpful as I could work on my weaknesses and leverage on my strong areas. The explanations offered are good. Regarding the difficulty level, I found some questions to be of a higher difficulty level with very close choices, something I did not experience in the real exam.

Expert support: I did not post any queries to experts because whenever I found the explanation difficult, the discussion part cleared my doubts. Hence, I would give a high rating to this section.

Overall, the e-gmat verbal course is a must for all non- natives to score above 700 in the real exam. Highly recommend the product to all aspirants.

I was struggling with the Verbal part of the Gmat right from when I have started preparing for the Gmat. Being a non-native speaker, I was always weak with the verbal part. I struggled most with the Sentence Correction section while preparing. The most recommended material for the Sentence Correction module was Manhattan Sentence correction book. However after starting with it, I was still kind of feeling left out. I was not able to grasp the basics and therefore section like modifiers and parallelism were not making sense. After going through many reviews in Gmat club, I decided to buy the e-gmat Sentence correction module. I started with their first chapter and went step by step. After completing the whole module, my accuracy in Sentence correction shot up. Concepts were more clear and I was able to solve questions more importantly with strategy and not conscience.

it is a very good course for a non natives. each video has been carefully made so as to ensure all topics/subtopics and techniques are covered.
dashboard-makes it very convenient to access videos topic wise
SC-meaning based approach is impressive, it improved my accuracy.
CR-good quality videos that give approaches that can be applied. pre-thinking approach really works.
RC-they press upon summarizing and looking at the big picture in an essay-that really helps. However some of the video lessons in this section that talk about summarizing passages word for word, won't work on the actual test, because there isn't enough time.

I went from a V30 TO V34, I could've certainly improved more, had I practiced more.

I would like to pen down my experience with egmat throughout my gmat preparation journey.

I believe this course is boon for every aspiring candidate who wants to crack Gmat. I studied this course . However I have just studied the concept . I had no time to practice scholaranium. In this much content also , because of egmat I managed to get 630. For some of you it might not be dream score. But for me , with the help of the egmat content I have studied and my very hectic job, I consider it as an achievement for myself. I give whole credit to this course. I have not covered all the sources available inside the course like I had no time to use their workshops and scholaranium.If I would have covered all the resources available inside the course, I might have scored higher. Nevertheless , I am still happy with whatever I have achieved. Being a working mother and having a taxing job, I still consider my course nice.The best thing about egmat in my case was that I need not to attend any classroom programme.I can study anytime , anywhere. This thing helped me a lot.I am really thankful to the entire team of egmat for all the support they have given me through the entire GMAT journey. Last but not the least, Hats off to there excellent customer service. They have even replied to my emails on the weekends and helped me often by going out of their way. A big Thank you to all. I will recommend this course to anyone who aspire to crack GMAT.

Thanks
