It is one of the best course for those who are an amateur like me. Explains every bits and detail of the verbals. I was scoring very low in verbals but my point got up-to 35+ from 20's. I would recommend everyone for this course who seriously look forward for the improvement. Moreover the scholarnium is the best question sets one can have for practice which tests all the concepts that one has prepared through the e-gmat course.
The course even helps you test your knowledge you aquired after each section where they have post assesment quizes to check your level. These are some of the prime features of the course which helps one to master the verbals aswell as the quant section of GMAT
I started my GMAT preparation on last summer. My quant was good that my quant score in the first gmatprep exam was 50. I never scored below 50 in quant in gmatpreps. My real problem was verbal. I heard from my friends that the E-gmat course is very good, specially in SC section. So, I purchased the SC course. In RC and CR sections, I self-studied with OG 13. I really improved in SC questions, jumping from 640 to 690 in my gmatprep exams. But, my improvement in RC and CR section was slow. I took my first GMAT and scored 630 (Q50,V24), 60 points lower than my gmatprep scores.
For the second time, I decided to focus on RC and CR more. I purchased the whole of E-gmat course. My previous strategy in RC questions was to scan the passage quickly and move to the questions. But I realized that this strategy takes more time to answer questions, besides my accuracy was low. Through e-gmat course, I learned to comprehend the passage first, then attack the questions. Similarly, in CR course, I liked the idea of pre-thinking and it helped me to increase my accuracy in CR questions. Besides SC, I really improved in both RC and CR with e-gmat course. Also, I liked the difficulty of Scholaranium questions and ability quizzes. It contains more than 700 challenging questions The difficulty of scholaranium helped me to not get stressed with the difficult questions in real GMAT exam. This time, my gmatprep scores was in the range of 720 to 760. So, I took my second GMAT and scored 710 (Q51,V34).
All I can say is that this is one of the best courses in the market for non-native students who really want to improve their verbal score in GMAT!
E-gmat's course structure, online classes (for verbal live prep course) and Scholarium (Question repository) are effectively what you really need to achieve a good GMAT score! The course curriculum covers all the minute details and effective ways to approach a verbal question, be it Sentence correction, critical reasoning or reading comprehension. The faculty/instructors at E-gmat have extensive knowledge on the same and I would recommend this course to every non-native or even natives, who are looking for a good score improvement.
I'm non-native. I'm trying to do well in the GMAT test, so I tried several different online preps. I'm quite good at Quant, but terrible at Verbal. I spent some time using MGMAT, GMAT Pill, Economist GMAT but I did better with e-GMAT. The course interface and the strategy to solve the questions are, for me, the best features of the course. Sooner after I heard of the course, I watched a session on sentence's meaning of e-GMAT. This was very helpful and opened a new world of possibilities for me. I started to see the sentence's problems and could solve some hard questions just based on meaning. Later I improved my skills using their 3 step process. My accuracy now higher than before, but there is still room to improve. Scholarinium is a great tool, it helps you to find where you should focus your time and efforts and gives you charts that show your strengths, weaknesses and your time. For sure, you should give e-GMAT a try.
I was apprehensive about this course initially since I didn't have many days left for the exam and 150$ seemed a lot (considering free prep material are available online too!) However, I decided to try the verbal online since I had attended the free webinars and found them really good. Also, they promise to return your money within a week if you don't like the course. And I found it great! I didn't have much to do except just blindly follow their study schedule. I watched the lectures, took the tests and improved on my errors. I asked doubts, made notes and actively participated in the forums. GMAT official guides and the e-gmat questions proved to be enough. I was so impressed with the verbal online that i purchased the quant online within a week. My scores started improving immediately. I took a test every 10 days I suppose, so I only took about 4 tests and my scores were:
590(Q44, V29) [mgmat]
640(Q48, V29) [gmat prep]
I took the egmat course now.
660(Q44,V36) [mgmat]
710(Q49,V36) [gmat prep]
730(Q50,V39) - OFFICIAL SCORE!
I made notes and reviewed them the day before my exam. I also did the D-S and Quant from the official guide only about 2 days before the exam, I guess that's why my mock scores weren't inflated. I was busy with the egmat questions until then.
Scholaranium does an AWESOME job in preparing you for the tests. You take tests, check solutions, make notes and in the process internalize the methods and questions. I actually had fun preparing through e-gmat.
Some points to note:
1. I wouldn't say 40 days are enough for everyone to see that improvement since I had taken leave from work so could spend around 12 hours per day studying.
2. They sometimes take about 3-4 days to respond to doubts which was A LOT for me since I was in a hurry to get done with topics as soon as possible. However, the explanations are good and they always respond.
3. Some solutions in quant are lengthy and their could be other better methods to solve the same. But the questions are good, the interface is great and you could always learn something new from solutions that are not otherwise the best!
All in all I think this is a great course!
I didn't pay any attention to AWA or IR, but their IR course looks good too and would definitely benefit.
I have briefly used the course and I think it is valuable to teach you the tricks to study GMAT verbal content. I could see increase in the verbal section practice CAT scores. I used the course for CR and SC. The verbal scholaranium is very good.
The videos might seem boring though but use to your best advantage. The question bank is not too vast.
If you are using the course, please make sure you practice a lot till your real GMAT exam. Even if you know the tricks without practice you will use more time than what is recommended. I have to activate my subscription to study thoroughly till my exam.
After a lot of thought and research, i opted for this course. I would completely agree that this is the best verbal course for any non-native (used some trial versions and borrowed subscriptions from friends) . The course is well structured and nicely paced. It helped me build a solid ground for sentence correction as i well as critical reasoning. I wasn't much comfortable with the approach of reading comprehension as it was completely unlike what was used to, but after going through all the CR and SC videos twice, it provided me with requisite confidence to walk into the examination room and play to my strengths.
I was really struggling with the verbal when my friend suggested me about egmat Verbal. In just a month, I was able to ramp up my verbal tremendously. I found the video lectures very helpful in making my concepts crystal clear. It is especially useful for SC which is the most scoring section. The CR is also great. In addition, they provide the scholaranarium which has over 600 questions and is quite helpful.
I think they should bundle it with more of other tests like Veritas etc. But they do provide gmatclub and 800score tests for free. Kudos to the egmat team!
E-GMAT SC has helped me gain a lot of confidence in knowing multiple rules about GMAT Sentence correction as I am a non-native speaker of English and I used to struggle a lot with SC, the method that describes about breaking a sentence into multiple blocks depending on phrases and clauses, I learned though the course and now SC seem more easier task to handle, and the important thing is their approach gives me confidence to tackle SC, I just go step by step in a structured many get to the correct answer choice. I would recommend E-GMAT SC to all the guys who are struggling with SC.
As soon as I started my Gmat prep I realised that my quant skills were strong but I was completely lost in verbal. In verbal i was scoring well in CR but my accuracy was below 50% in SC. This brought my entire score down. I tried a few prep books but all in vain. Then I came across e-gmat verbal live prep, which was exactly the course I needed.I came to know about eGmat through one of my friend, an ex-student of eGmat, who scored 700+ on “D day”. Convinced with his feedback about the course, I decided to enrol into the program and, trust me, I never regretted my decision.
Strong determination and learnings from the course has helped me and i am confident that i can score atleast V38 this time.
To keep it short, I will share a few key notes:
1.The course does a great job of laying out what you should expect for the test, which is great for those with little to no idea what's on the GMAT. It takes you through each of the various question types for each topic, breaking down various strategies to approach each one. This is ideal as not everyone learns the same, so you can find the method best suited to you and your strengths. Even if you are familiar with the GMAT or are scoring pretty high, the various tips and strategies will provide you with opportunities to bump up your score. Beyond just tips and strategies, it also provides the foundation of knowledge you will need to do well.
2. Well-structured and researched course that helps you to understand key concepts via short videos. Provides quizzes at the end of each chapter to test your understanding of the concept . You can further enrich your learnings though diagnostic test in a timed environment. (I have recently tried verbal scholaranium and really liked quality of the questions. It’s close to patterns followed in past Official questions. Planning to complete it by month end.)
2. This course goes into the basics of sentence building and effectively explains the common errors which gmat tests. This course also simplifies CR concepts and teaches you a knack to effectively read RC passages. In my earlier mock tests my verbal scores ranged from 27 to 35 but now I am consistently hitting 38-40.
Regards.
3. Webinar are to the point and eye openers. Every time you will discover something new. Mentors guide you to put your learnings from the course into practice and solve official questions by using eGmat approach.
4. Excellent platform to interact and learn from the mentors, who have already championed the game and know the rules. It would be tough to mention all the names but few names that I would like to mention are “Neeti”, “Payal” and “Chiranjeev”. I thank all of them for their patience and guidance during the initials days of enrolment and helping me to get my basics right.
5. Reading Strategies and Width of Practice passages on RC- Another weak area is RC passages from social sciences. While my accuracy was 80-90% on technology and life science essays, it was less than 50% on passages from social sciences. On certain difficult passages, I could get only 1 out of 4 correct, this too without timing myself. Reading Strategies learnt helped me a lot in two aspects. First, I could read and understand passages from different areas without the need of any background, even to understand the meaning of an alien term. Second, not to get stuck on details and focus on the bigger picture (the main point).
6.Scholaranium- This is an amazing platform that focusses on testing ability rather than accuracy. It tracks you performance and has multiple useful features such as sections quizzes and you could also customize a quiz to your needs. This allows you to work on you weak areas and test your improvement.
In short, if you are a non-native speaker then eGmat is the place for you to ace verbal section. You can never go wrong with it.
Will share further experience after I take GMAT.
