Strengths:

- Value for money (of the most affordable programs out there)
- Last Mile Push (LMP) program which provides a personal mentor to create a full-fledged journey for your prep based on the Target Score, and solve any doubts regarding your score improvements, last minute strategy etc. My mentor, Rida helped me create a study plan, stick to it with regular check-ins, analyze mocks and understand how to tackle my weak-spots in Quant just days before the exam.
- Highly structured, step-by-step curriculum so that you don't feel lost at any stage
- Extensive scholaranium with a rich question bank
- Cementing Stage i.e. after the concept giving 5 tests (2 Medium, 3 Hard) really help to "cement" the specifics of the concept so that you do not forget it even if you come back to it after a month
- Quant section's Diagnostic Tests help you understand which topics you are quite adept at, before even starting it so that you can skip specific concepts, and just move straight to the Quizzes. Helped me save a lot of time!

Would make the product better:

- Course structure can benefit from more questions on the Hard side. Since when we get to the Practice Exams / Mocks etc, questions are harder than the ones experienced while practicing for the concept

E-GMAT proved to be a great resource for someone like me, who was giving the GMAT for the first time, and was looking for a step-by-step introduction to the exam itself.
Plus, if you are a person who is looking for some personal guidance, and accountability while studying and someone to course-correct you during the critical time in your prep, then opt for the E-GMAT Last Mile Push Program, to get the benefit of a GMAT expert mentor.
Give one of their mocks as a Diagnostic so that it can help you foresee your strong and weak areas before starting your preparation.

Strengths:

1. Detailed course work - the concepts, application and the entire flow of the course is very structured. Features like PACE, Scholaranium, Cementing quizzes are extremely helpful through the course.
2. Very much similar questions in DI and Verbal to the actual test.
3. Personalized mentor to guide and structure your preparation

Would make the product better:

1. A few more questions required in DI - but recently eGMAT team has added 50 sectionals which was not there in my preparation time.

eGMAT course is one of the most trusted resources in GMAT preparation. The coursework is extremely detailed and the process skills built in a step by step format is very helpful in slowly building up the ability in every topic tested.
Scholaranium which is a repository of practice questions is one of the best features where you can see a improvement in your abilities as well as practice and review the incorrect questions as many times as you like. Cementing quizzes after every module is a great tool to apply the process skills and get to the 70%+ accuracy lecels in medium and hard questions. Lastly, the LMP program with a dedicated mentor helps you take the last leap to the end where you get guidance on the exact weak areas to improve and get your desired score. All in all, I was very happy to reach a 96 percentile after spending almost over 6 months with eGMAT.

Strengths:

Verbal preparation for this course is excellent. They help you with your basics to mastering advanced-level questions. The same applies to the DI section as well. They have created interactive videos to help you learn how to tackle MSR and CR questions.

The preparatory course I took for the GFE was outstanding and provided a comprehensive range of high-quality study materials and mock tests. The course was meticulously designed to cover all aspects of the exam, and the depth of the resources available greatly contributed to my understanding and readiness. Additionally, the support team was exceptionally helpful; they were quick to respond to any queries I had and provided detailed assistance through the portal. My mentor played a crucial role in my preparation as well, offering invaluable guidance in developing effective study plans and strategies. Their support was instrumental in helping me enhance my performance on the GMAT, making the entire preparation process more manageable and effective.

Strengths:

Egmat provides a comprehensive platform to ace the gmat exam. They have a variety of questions in quant and verbal and learning materials that aid in understanding the concepts very clearly.

Would make the product better:

Questions on quant could be a bit more similar to Official guide . The quant section of Egmat prepares you for the worst so it is quite on the difficult side.

Egmat offers an amazing gmat prep course which helped me get a good score on the gmat. Their tricks and tips on quant are very handy and can save you a lot of time on the exam. I also got the opportunity to work with Dhruv who was my mentor in their LMP program.
He gave me personalised insights to action upon. They provide a good study plan as well. In addition to that their mocks are very reliable and a but on the tougher side . So if you get a good score in their locks then you can certainly ace the gmat. Verbal and DI sections were amazing as well. Overall it is a great course and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking to ace the Gmat exam.

Strengths:

1. The amount of detail in the course. This course alone is sufficient to cover all concepts needed to ace the exam
2. The number of problems available for practice
3. Similarity of questions to the real GMAT

The aspect of the course I really love is the amount of detail present in the course. If you can be patient ( Which you really need for GMAT ) and take the time to understand the processes and practices put in place this course is an absolute banger! It hits all the required aspects in Verbal, Quant and DI. The questions on the Scholaranium might feel they are slightly harder than the ones in the GMAT official book but trust me, once you get the hang of the principles mentioned in the course they will really help you a lot when actually applying the concepts on the GMAT and it will feel like a breeze. The number of questions you can practice on to apply the concepts you learn is insane. So if you take the time and mindfully practice, I can guarantee that it will improve your score a lot!

The platform is also simple to use and pretty straightforward. They walk you through the learning stages - like Cementing and Test Readiness so you are 100% sure that you know the concept, learnt the concept and can apply the concept. They walk you through prethinking for CR, reading strategies in Verbal, applying process skills in Quant and owning the dataset in DI, all of which I really found helpful in my GMAT exam.

I was part of the LMP program ( Last Mile Push Program ) where you are paired with a mentor who can motivate you, guide you on where you should be focusing your time and skills on and even help you in areas you are weak. This really pushed me when I was feeling down or couldn't gather enough motivation to finish my tasks.

Overall Tips if you plan on choosing the course:
1. Be Patient and follow through the course. This isn't a small course by any means. It is meant to take you to 99 percentile. And contrary to the saying "Good things don't come in small packages"

2. Keep yourself motivated throughout the course. They have a system where if you get the questions right in the pre test of a concept, you are advised on what concepts you can skip. Take it up as a challenge and try to do your best and gamify your experience so it's interesting

3. If there is anyone you can rely on to push you to get that score, ( sometimes we all need that extra push ) don't be shy to reach out and ask the e-GMAT team for help. They will try and help you as much as they can.

4. The course is slightly expensive. So don't fall off the track. Keep the momentum going and try and complete the course within 4 months if possible.

All the best!

The DI course modules can get better and more aligned with actual OG questions.

I started my GMAT preparation in January 2024. On a friend's advice, I registered myself for the egamt's Online 360 course. Before starting the course, I attempted a full length egmat mock and scored 425. Time management was the biggest concern for me. I realized I wasn't ready for this exam and needed a structured approach for my preparations.

I started doing all the module courses to get hold of the concepts in quant and verbal. I was doing decently well in the module tests and kept moving ahead in the course. In one of the module tests when my score was low, I decided to write a mail to egmat support to have a look, review my preparations and provide some feedback. Honestly speaking I didn't have many expectations from an online portal providing any sort of mentorship but decided to seek help just for the sake of it.

To my surprise, the reply that I received was very assuring and motivating. Hereon, egmat mentor Ms Rashmi Vaidya became a dedicated virtual mentor for me for the following months of my preparations. I moved places and relocated 3 times between January and April. This combined with the unpredictable nature of workload at a startup I would have weeks when I couldn't study even for an hour. But Rashmi and sometimes other mentors who would write to me would still be very patient and supportive.

By April 15 I had finally settled at one location and decided to study regularly aiming to take the exam around the end of June. During this time Rashmi gave me a reality check. Knowing concepts well just by covering the module courses was only 1/3rd of the preparations done for GMAT. She introduced me to the egmat idea of ‘cementing’ and ‘test readiness’ stages post finishing the online modules. The true importance of this I realized post my first attempt.

I completed all three stages for quant, did it partially for verbal and could not finish even the module courses for DI by end of June. I had fixed the exam date as 11th July. So, by end June I started giving official mocks and following were my scores

Mock 1 – 645 Q-84, V-80, DI-81.

Mock 2 – 595 Q-84, V-79, DI-76.

Mock 3 – 675 Q-86, V-83, DI-81

egmat mock - 595

I was having serious issues with time management in both verbal and DI. Invariably having to guess 5-6 questions in the end for both these sections in each mock. This was a result of not doing cementing and test readiness for those two sections.

The final exam was no different, I had time management issues in both verbal and DI. Guessed last 4 answers in verbal and 6/7 answers in DI.

Final exam score: 655 Q-87, V-80, DI-80.

I know the score isn’t exceptional, but it isn’t bad either. I can’t thank Rashmi enough for guiding me through this journey and being so patient with the erratic nature of my possible study schedules.
I must say if you take this online course and actually diligently complete all three stages of preparation on egmat portal, with the required score metrics, no force can stop you from getting an exceptionally high score at GMAT focus edition.

Strengths:

I found that the egmat course is very balanced. It will not over inform and confuse you but take you through every concept very diligently just enough to score well in the test. The video lessons are very interactive and the text explanations are as good as the video lessons. Also, the experts guide directly through various online workshops. The team is very prompt and responsive in case of any query. All the queries that i have posted till now, I have received a response within 24 hours.
The mock tests that they provide, very closely simulate the actual test experience, especially the user interface part and the type of questions.

I strongly recommend egmat course. It is a very effective medium of learning and the whole ecosystem of this course is student oriented. I have had experience with Magoosh too but i found this course way way better. The questions, video lessons, mock test, text explanation, responsive team, are just excellent.

Strengths:

* Initial consultation: In one call, by reviewing my latest score result in detail, my coach helped me identify exactly the areas in which I needed to improve. This allowed me to use my time efficiently
* Methodology: The team knows exactly how to ace each section and sub-section. By learning and following their metholodogy, I was able to save time and gain confidence very fast.
* Content: e-gmat has extensive resources on each sub-section, including on Data Insights - which is rare on the market, with most other platforms "recycling" old contents from IR.
* Coaching: It was empowering to have a coach who set clear goals and was following up how I was doing. I did this as part of the Last Mile Push Program.

Would make the product better:

None, just be ready to dedicate time to your learning.

Super grateful - thank you e-gmat and Rida in particular!

I totally recommend e-gmat to anyone who wants to improve their score with methodology and confidence.

After being stuck at a GMAT score of 645 despite months of self-study, I decided to try e-GMAT due to its compelling reviews and lower cost.

My coach, Rida, created a detailed study plan that focused on my weak areas and included accuracy goals for each section, which significantly improved my understanding and performance. She followed up regularly to check where I was at and whether I had questions. In parallel, I used their platform Scholaranium for practicing Medium and Hard questions and maintaining an error log (Excel file to reflect on my mistakes) were crucial in refining my skills and boosting my confidence. Prior to e-gmat, I studied alone for 3 months and I was not really able to learn on my mistakes.

e-GMAT’s structured approach and consistent practice helped me break through the 645 barrier and achieve a GMAT score of 685. On Verbal, they taught me to read actively, which aced my accuracy and time needed. On DI, they taught me to process thoroughly the dataset, which boosted my accuracy as well.

Strengths:

Flexible for working professionals, customisation options and feedback.

Would make the product better:

Increase the number of full length mock tests

eGMAT's online 360 course starts with the creation of an extensive study plan which helps outline a schedule for preparation - this I think, is a very crucial step. Besides the theory lessons, they also have numerous practice questions, detailed solutions with expert assistance to help with doubts (and also a lot of people who've had similar questions, answered, in the past, available to view), the PACE AI tool helps optimise prep time with classes and five high-quality, single attempt mocks. The fact that it is customisable makes it ideal for working professionals. The course introduces concept of cementing and strategies to achieve it, which are very effective.

Strengths:

- Quality of course content in terms of the depth of subject covered.
- Continuous support from eGMAT for any test prep problems.
- Quick and efficient clarification of doubts.
- Interactive Video Lessons of great quality.
- Regular webinars and strategy sessions to strengthen core concepts.
- Last Mile Push (LMP) program : A strategy expert assigned to the aspirant who guides the aspirant in every step of the way.

Would make the product better:

- Word Problems questions are too lengthy and tough to solve in stipulated time, which may be discouraging.

My journey from 555 to 685 in GMAT Focus:

I have started my GMAT journey in April 2024 by taking a Sigma-X mock test from eGMAT. I scored a 555, and understood that I need to strengthen my basics, especially in Verbal and Data Insights sections. I chose eGMAT based on a plethora of positive reviews by GMAT achievers, and I'm happy that my choice was apt.

The first and foremost thing I loved about eGMAT was a clear and personalized study plan, having which I fel confident about the preparation at the beginning.

I started with Verbal section, where the course has worked wonders for me. The clarity it gave on the concepts tested, and the well laid out methodologies for solving CR and RC questions were really helpful. Overall, it laid an excellent foundation on which I built my verbal ability.

Quant has always been a strong area for me, as I have scored 100% in Quantitative Aptitude even in my GATE-2019 examination. However, the depth of concept covered in eGMAT quant is unmatched in all sub sections.

Data Insights is one area where I struggled the most initially. But the simplified manner in which core concepts of graphical analysis, table analysis and multi source reasoning are presented in the course have made my life easier.

Cementing, as the name suggests, is a crucial building block of GMAT ability, and it played a pivotal role in my journey too.

Last but not the least, the Last Mile Push program, where we are assigned a dedicated strategy expert cum mentor is absolutely game changing. Akash and Abha, my mentors, supported me in every step of the way and helped me set accurate goals. Abha's analysis of my mock exams has helped me strategize the real exam in an efficient way.

Overall, eGMAT stands out in many ways and I recommend the course to serious aspirants looking for significant score boost.
