Hello all,

I am hoping this review would help some people decide on whether they want to pursue this online course for their GMAT prep.

I have had a long and ardous journey with the GMAT exam. I have had several (failed) attempts at conquering the >700 score but was only able to hit that mark after signing up for the e-GMAT Verbal Live Prep course.

The course helped me for multiple reasons:
1) It added so much structure to my SC preparation. In the past, I have used Manhattan's guide for SC but that really didn't help much. The reason why e-GMAT's material worked for me is because it has quizzes to test your learning after each lesson/skill. Every skill is tested before you can convince yourself to move on to the next. These regular checkpoints are crucial to address knowledge gaps. I felt that I eased through SC questions in the actual test because of this advantage. This approach obviously works for CR too. Not so much for RC, which just requires sheer, intensive practice and sufficient reading.

2) It also gave me a framework to eliminate wrong answers in CR. And that was half the battle won. The remaining half was really about applying consistent logic.

3) The live sessions connected to each lesson are great to add perspective to your learning progress. In these live sessions, if your performance in the questions provided is below the average of the class, then obviously you are doing something wrong that needs to be addressed. The tutors help you course-correct through these sessions. I liked these sessions and the recordings are available after the session for you to re-visit in the future.

4) Scholaranium is amazing. Period. Practice is really what gets you from Point A to Point B (better place to be). I analysed every ability quiz that is included in Scholaranium to figure out my weaknesses and develop a plan. Scholaranium is a great feature to enable this.

5) The Verbal workshop is pretty cool too. It is a tough test that gives you a reality check on your preparation end-to-end (CR, RC, SC). You can even benchmark yourself against your cohort to give you an idea of how good or bad you are. Of course, the GMAT is a test where you are against the GMAT. You aren't competing against the crowd. But however, this benchmarking helped me build some confidence.

Overall, great course. I would highly recommend it.

I was having trouble with my verbal before, the e-gmat is awesome and a must for any person and after the course i saw 8 point jump on my verbal score .
the section on pronoun , modifier and subject verb error are awesome.
The SC section inperticular carries a great details of all the sections with examples and practice questions with the score which is really helpful.
one should really completed the section and see the improvement .do not pace yourself with the fundamentals just understand them fully and then focus on the OG and other official material and then try with the exam and review it throughly .

Being a non native English speaker, I took egmat's verbal online course to improve specifically on verbal section. The content of the course is very good. The SC section is exhaustive and explained in great detail. The practice tests in each module of SC,CR and RC fine tunes one's preparation. Though RC is my weakest area, the confidence that I got after going through the other sections of the course was tremendous. Supplement the course with additional practice sessions in Scholaranium and surely, one can aim for a high verbal score. Lastly, I want to emphasize that its a very good course for non natives and I strongly recommend candidates to take this course to succeed in gmat's verbal section.

Before Signing for E-GMAT, I was bit confused initially about the on - demand Course, whether my queries will be answered, how will be the responses to my queries whether the content will be able to really help me understand the course and improve my score.
Moreover, Before Attending E GMAT, I Attended a classroom program in Hyderabad, Which did nothing to my confidence and I was more or less at the same place with nothing gained from that program. But E-GMAT has done wonders to my confidence just because they Made Sentence correction more qualitative by presenting the In depth explanation of Many concepts, To Name few of them
• How Ed modifiers are formed
• Relative Pronoun Modifier Modifying Previous Noun or far away Noun
I think they are available for free, guys if you just read them once , these article will change the way you approach these types of question. Before this I have read Manhattan SC guide, Princeton Verbal books But the way concept is present in E Gmat is Phenomenal, They don't just tell you the concept but they detail it to the extent that you feel comfortable and Interesting.
Enough About the SC but the way CR and RC is explained in their verbal online course is also very good. They try to channelize your thinking process towards the correct and with more & more practise answers start becoming oblivious for CR and SC Questions
I Would Definitely Recommend E GMAT Verbal Online Course to anyone who is non native and looking to improve his GMAT score.
Thanks

After 2 unsuccessful attempts at crossing the 700 score mark.I scored V31 and V32 in my previous attempts. I decided to take a course for Verbal. But with the plethora of courses available I wasn't able to make up my mind regarding the courses.

I started self preperation as i wasn't able to decide. I leveraged GMAT club to look for answers to my queries. Although multiple users share their opinions about the answers, I found multiple contradictions in the way they applied rules .Apart from that this wasn't helping me with one of my majors concerns - Time Management.

However, I encountered explanations and articles from E-Gmat on GMAT Club. The explanations were not only structured but also put down with multiple examples. This greatly helped me understand the concepts with clarity. I was very impressed with the small sample of their teaching methodology.

I decided to enroll myself for the course after a month of self-preperation.

I loved e-gmat's teaching methodology. First we are explained the basic concepts and process of solving quetsions. Then we take a few questions to test our understanding. Then we are taken deeper into each question type and specific process to solve them. We are asked to test our understading at each stage of learning. This helped me ensure that I had a good understading of the concepts before moving on. At the end of each course we can take 5 miscelaneous assessment test with great quality of questions.

I was also able to pace myself as per my convinience as the entire course is online and provides multiple opportunities to attend the live sessions as well. The live sessions in particular were greatly helpful. They gave the opportunity to work on questions with an experts and helped to improve understanding.

But i have not come to best part of the course yet. THE SCHOLARANIUM and THE E-GMAT FORUM. Scholaranium provides over 600 questions with varied difficulty levels. We can take them either as timed sectional tests or as quizzes. Each test is scored and helps to keep track of our progress.

The E-GMAT Forum is also a great place to resolve any queries you may. Although the time for response may vary from 1 to 4 days, the responses are effective. Moreover, most of our queries are already answered.

One catch regarding the forum is that, we are only allowed to ask queries regarding official questions or E-GMAT questions. But in my experience, this methodology not only ensure that we solve reliable questions but also builds our faith in the E-GMAT process.

I was also given access to 5 "800 score tests" and "all gmat club tests". These two features along with Scholaranium and official guides gave me a huge question bank to apply and perfect the E-GMAT process. And by perfecting the process i was able to manage my time efficiently. In my previous attempts i was able to attempt only about 32 questions in the verbal section but by applying the E-GMAT process i was able to manage my time better and answer questions with greater confidence. I attempted 40 questions in the GMAT and guessed only 1 questions.

I definitely recommend E-GMAT to anyone looking to improve their Verbal score. I believe the course helped me overachieve with a 10 point increment in my verbal score and 1 point increment in my quant score (thanks to the gmat club tests).

I gave my GMAT once and got a score of 640 by preparing on my own by referring to Manhattan Review & Official Guides. As a non-native speaker(frm India) I sometimes didn't get the reason of why am I doing wrong and why an option is correct. I was just getting scores of 620-660 in mocks then. After giving my GMAT I understood that a real-teacher like course is needed to improve yourself. As a banker with transfers I really didn't think of going to a classroom program. That's when I chose e-GMAT Verbal Online. The course material covers everything that a non-native speaker would want to and covers all the Question ranges. The materials and the examples are top-class and will point at the basic concepts and how best to deal with the flaws in most of the questions so that your accuracy is maintained right from the first tutorial. The forum provides replies from the experts and they're very friendly. Now, after completing their course, I started attempting mocks and I see that I am getting somewhere between 720-750. I am giving my GMAT in 2 month's time and I hope to replicate the scores from my mocks. Thank you E-GMAT for increasing my confidence!

E Gmat provides you with many useful strategies to get more than 700 on the exam. Since I started studying with E Gmat, I am recommending it to all my friends. E gmat provides you with tough questions that let you learn the concepts of the real exam. Also, they give you detailed solutions of the official questions. For that reason, you can be sure that you will learn the concepts. Trust me, I have tried to study with other Gmat Prep Softwares, however, no one explains you the concepts as good as E Gmat does. I consider that E gmat is the best option for Non Natives Speakers.

The e-gmat verbal tutorials are excellent for non-native English speakers like me. The tutorials explain concepts in a simple and easy to grasp manner. For sentence correction I used to go with my ear i.e how the sentence would sound to me and would hover around the 94 percentile but e-gmat helped push my score to 99 percentile. The tutorial on Verb-ed and Verb-ing helped me especially as verbs were my Waterloo.
I stopped following my ear and strictly applied the grammar rules and lo and behold my score increased drastically. I feel e-gmat's sentence correction is very helpful especially for non-natives because the English we speak is very different from gmat English.

I looked up the various available resources on GMAT preparation on gmatclub.com when I could not move my verbal score upwards after trying the different books on Sentence Correction and Critical Reasoning.

I realized that the online verbal course by e-GMAT differentiates itself from other online and offline course materials in the extensive list of topics covered and the practice tests at the end of each of those lessons. Knowledge about every possible concept is very important especially when you aim to score higher on the GMAT and the test tends to surprise you with a wide variety of questions as you progress. The video mode of learning ensures that you remain engaged throughout the learning process.

Overall, I would definitely recommend the verbal online course to my friends preparing for GMAT and are hoping to achieve a higher score.
