Strengths:
Scholaranium, Support and Mocks
Would make the product better:
If anything, I'd want them to give us an option to fast forward through the coursework as it may not be fast enough for everyone.
My experience with eGMAT has been great from the start. I started my GMAT journey in June and took the eGMAT course on the recommendation of a friend. It turned out to be the best thing that I could've asked for. I started off with a score of 630 in my mocks and found myself lacking in both concept and process skills. Through the coursework, I was able to understand the gaps in my understanding in Verbal seeing as my quant had always been a strong point. Majorly, I'd like to point out a couple of things that any aspirant should look at while picking a platform for their GMAT prep. They are as follows:
1. Content - I went through multiple guides of different companies and I found the eGMAT coursework to be very meticulous and exactly what I needed. I would point out that it is very process oriented and it really takes a lot of time to go through the coursework, however it is equally rewarding.
2. Question bank and mocks - I don't think I've found a platform to the level of eGMAT. Their mocks and questions are very close to what official questions look like. Apart from this, their analytics blow other platforms out of the water. The precision with which I can see my strengths and weaknesses through their data analysis is unmatched and exactly something that I was looking for. I would even go to the extent to recommend using their platform solely for their mocks and question bank, if nothing else.
3. Support - I am a person that requires constant pushing and direction when pursuing a goal such as this. I would've sent over 200 mails to support@egmat over the course of my preparation and never had to wait for longer than 4-6 hours for a response. As a student, this kind of support was essential to me doing well in my preparations.
I'd like to thank a few people in particular on the platform namely Harshavardhan R, Abhishek Raj, and Rida for being a constant support throughout my journey. I would not have been able to pull off my score if it were not for them. They truly made the difference for me.
Strengths:
Meaning Based Approach
CR Pre-thinking Concept - to a certain extent
Would make the product better:
Not so relavant RC questions and much longer passages
SC - Superb. Meaning Based Approach proved extremely helpful. This approach opened the doors for 700 or 750 level questions, which was really a big pain point for me.
CR - Pre thinking is more about practicing than any concept as such. I could not give enough time to practice Pre-thinking to the core and hence could not improve a lot. Though it did help me to a certain extent.
RC - Did not find the section useful, could be because I was at a decent level in RC and did not need a great deal of improvement. Though, I feel the passages are way longer than real GMAT, and much tougher than what you might encounter in your exam.
Did not use its Quant, so can't say much about it.
Strengths:
The e-gmat online module is the best in market. The e learning module is very comprehensive and caters to aspirants at any level of the preparation. The mentorship provided by e GMAT is very unique, and mentors support during each stage of our journey. In addition, the e GMAT mock tests are the closest to actual GMAT test than any other mocks available.
Would make the product better:
There is nothing much to improve. May be would recommend to increase one or two more mock tests
Apart from the online GMAT course, the guidance provided by the mentors throughout our preparation is really invaluable. I would really like to acknowledge and appreciate the consistent technical and moral support that Ms. Rashmi Vaidyam has given me during my preparation phase. The meaning based approach of e GMAT is really helpful for non native speakers like us. The verbal section covers basics to advance level concepts and we do not need to refer to any other materials. e GMAT provides with unique and very logical strategic approach to solve each section of verbal. Quant module is self sufficient inteself and you can pace the course as per our level of competence.
I recommend e gamt for any one who is looking for 700 or above score. The module did not just help me with GMAT but it also improved my basics. e GMAT does not focuses on shortcuts like other products in market do, instead works on foundation which helps you tackel the 700 level questions.
Thanks e gamt and I am very grateful to Rashmi
Dear yamal,
Congratulations on the 700 and thank you for your kind words! It has been an absolute pleasure working with you throughout your GMAT preparation journey. I commend you for the methodical and diligent way in which you went about completing your preparation.
Your commitment to master the GMAT verbal shows in the diligence with which you set about building your ability. Starting from building a rock-solid foundation, you gradually but definitely build your ability by mastering the necessary skills required to ace GMAT verbal. See how the mastering the meaning-based approach helped you improve to a consistent 90th percentile ability in verbal:

It is nice to know that you found the quant course beneficial to improve your quant ability. I am glad that you leveraged the P.A.C.E. engine to pace yourself through the quant course. See how this strategic approach helped you improve your hard accuracy in Algebra to 80% (90th percentile+), while helping you save over 11 hours:

Yamal, as you have rightly identified, our goal is not to teach students short-cuts, but skills that will help them get to a top score on the GMAT. I am really glad to know that the course helped you achieve just that.
I want to wish you all the very best as you move forward into the upcoming admission season. I have no doubt that your impressive GMAT score will open doors to exciting opportunities.
Best regards,

Finally, on behalf of e-GMAT, I extend my well-wishes for the exciting journey that lies ahead of you. May you embark on this path with great success and fulfilment.

Hey Everyone!
I recently took the GMAT test and scored a 730 (QA50, VA39). I had given my previous attempt a month ago, where I landed a 620 on the test. I improved my score by a whopping 110 points in one month. I would like to share my experience briefly about my GMAT journey.
I gave my first E-gmat Sigma X Mock and scored a 590. That's when I recognized the extent of enhancements required in my study approach, prompting me to enroll in the e-gmat course. Needless to say, the interface of the e-gmat dashboard is impeccable. The division of Quant and Verbal into various subtopics provides a student with the precise and accurate topic-wise breakdown of the syllabus, really helping to understand the weak and strong areas. The P.A.C.E feature helped me save a lot of time in my preparation.
I meticulously went through each module, ensuring completion of every practice quiz question and application question to enhance my skills. After each section, I took the Cementing quizzes, which really helped me gain confidence. I not only built my skills but also ensured that my understanding of the topics is crystal clear.
The next phase of my preparation involved multiple quizzes (Topic-wise Quiz, Mixed quiz, etc.) of varying lengths. The quiz structure was provided to me by my mentor, Abha. The quizzes contained medium to hard-level questions, and my aim was to achieve around 70-80% accuracy in them. Initially, I found the quizzes to be challenging, but towards the end of my preparation, I realized that these quizzes are helping me further in the preparation. Following several quizzes, I developed effective time management skills, achieving greater accuracy by discerning which questions to skip and which ones to attempt. I largely focused on accuracy in these quizzes as I was already done with the concept part.
Next came the Mock ramp-up phase when I started giving Sigma X mocks. In those mocks, I scored between 650-700. One notable aspect of the Sigma X mocks is their comprehensive analysis of errors by topic, coupled with a progression analysis. These mocks helped me identify specific areas where I was struggling and provided guidance on how to enhance my performance. The mock structure closely mirrored that of the actual GMAT exam.
When I first wrote the exam, I scored a 620 (VA27, QA48). To be honest, I was quite surprised because I was crystal clear in the concepts and had made sure to cover each and every aspect thoroughly. I decided not to give up and gave myself another month before going for the exam again. Finally, after one month of hard work, I booked the exam date and gave my best foot forward. Once I hit the submit button and saw the score, I was overwhelmed with joy and tears of happiness. After a dismal 620 in the previous attempt, I had scored a 730!
I’m really grateful to E-gmat for providing me with an excellent mentor. Abha helped me throughout the journey by constantly pushing me and motivating me to do better. I would request her for ad-hoc calls, and she would always be available for me. The combinations of the quizzes provided by her really helped me to get to my current score. Overall, the course is extensive and totally worth every penny. I would definitely recommend the same to test-takers.
Thank you!
Strengths:
Great customer support- I often received replies to emails and queries in under 12 hours. Akash especially helped me throughout the process.
Video lessons included everything you need to know
Very accurate, adaptive mocks, that are extremely similar to the actual exam.
Would make the product better:
One small feature I would change is that you can't fast forward the videos in the verbal section. I would've sped up my study greatly if I could've watched the videos at 1.5x or 2x speed.
I started my journey hovering around a 630 score. With the help of Akash, and diligent work on my part, following the video lessons structure for both verbal and quant, and later following a personalised mock study plan, I was able to chip away slowly at my deficiencies and reach my target score.
The video lessons were extremely clear and holistic. They included everything tested on the GMAT, not just in terms of the foundational concepts, but also in how to apply said concepts in ways tested in the GMAT.
The area I most struggled with was Sentence correction, but with a huge array of official, and non-official practice questions, I was able to work at specifically targeting my weaknesses.
When moving on to the test readiness stage, in my last few weeks, I was given a personalised study plan, and a combination of e-GMAT mocks and official ones. This last stage was essential for my learning.
I wholeheartedly recommend e-gmat to anyone aspiring to take the GMAT, regardless of what stage you are in your learning. With personalised help, and hard work from your part, e-GMAT will help you achieve your target score. They offer the best bang for your buck, and go above and beyond what is expected of them.

Strengths:
e-GMAT courses feature video lessons that engage students effectively. The lessons are designed to make complex concepts easier to understand and provide step-by-step explanations for solving problems. The entire product is a one-stop destination for all GMAT aspirants. It's very quick response rate is an amazing feature. The online product also has the possibility to set up custom quizzes wit any specific number of questions from a specific section of Verbal or Quant, a feature not available with other products and a highly useful feature.
My journey with e-GMAT was very fruitful. I got all the support I needed from the team along with the extra push I requested for towards the business end of the prep as they enrolled me for the Last Mile Program, which features mentorship of the highest level. The emphasis on maintaining your own error log was one of the key factors of e-GMAT. Having an error log really helps with identifying your errors in thought process and making sure you don't do that again. It's emphasis on the meaning based approach for SC and creating para summaries for RC was the highlight of the Verbal section.
Hi ChawlaManav,
Congrats on the massive 100-point improvement! That's seriously impressive!
I would want to take this opportunity to commend you for your diligence -it was all your hard work and dedication that made this success achievable.
I am glad the meaning-based approach in SC and the emphasis on creating paragraph summaries for Reading Comprehension helped you improve your Verbal score. Here is an image you can be seen using your strong conceptual knowledge and process skills translating to 88% accuracy in SC questions.

The emphasis on maintaining an error log is a key aspect of GMAT success, and we're pleased to hear that it played a significant role in your preparation. Identifying and learning from errors is crucial, and we're glad this feature contributed to your progress.
We truly appreciate your trust in e-GMAT, and we wish you continued success in all your future endeavours.
All the best!

Strengths:
Comprehensive plan for verbal and quant improvement.
Would make the product better:
Nothing
I have found e-GMAT to be extremely helpful. I started using this platform after my 1st attempt and it has helped me a lot with my preparation especially with the verbal section. The scholarinum which is a specific feature of e-GMAT portal allows us to have a detailed analysis of our strengths and weakness, so that we can focus specially on our weak areas to improve them. I will strongly suggest people to use this platform and especially the facility provided to interact with the experts there who can do a detailed analysis of our progress and provide valuable feedback on how to proceed ahead with the preparation.
Strengths:
1.) AI-enabled Scholaranium question bank that helps to gauge ability and accuracy
2.) Vast question bank - especially Quant
3.) Perfect combination of self-paced study structure and mentorship (Dhruv was my mentor, and he is absolutely and totally a pillar of strength for aspirants and e-GMAT).
4.) Dhruv, and e-GMAT platform gave me thorough and correct feedback on where I went wrong, and how to improve in each aspect which helped me manage my time most productively by working harder on my weaker areas, and revising my stronger areas. This is a boon for anyone who also has other time-taking commitments such as work and/or studies.
5.) Balancing a hectic work life and high GMAT score aspiration, I had to take off days in between preparation due to work/other reasons, but the quizzes and revision and summary modules helped me get back on track. My mentor would also check-in with me and remind me to go over things at intervals of 2-3 days for 30 minutes or so, to keep the momentum going which helped me stay on track.
Would make the product better:
1.) I think Verbal modules could be a bit better, as well as the Verbal questions since I did not find them a very accurate representation of the actual GMAT questions half the time, especially RC passages.
e-GMAT was instrumental in helping me achieve my target score of 750+. I found their platform and their pedagogy intuitive to follow, easy to use, and suitable to my schedule and aspiration. The course content was comprehensive and covered each topic that is tested on the GMAT. I particularly found Quant very detailed, and went through each module to revise and apply concepts. While I had a good grasp of the concepts tested by GMAT makers prior to taking the e-GMAT course, I struggled a bit in time management which made me a little haphazard in answering the questions, leading to silly mistakes and rushed problem-solving.
e-GMAT helped me build upon my ability to hone my exam-taking strategy - which is crucial to getting to the 99th percentile. Approaches such as the Meaning-based approach in SC, Pre-thinking in CR, note-taking in RC and the 7-skills for Quant increased my accuracy and made my timing strategy very strong. The platform is very interactive, and combined with their advanced, adaptive quizzing platform Scholaranium helped me evaluate myself at every step of the way, which is again crucial for scoring well in GMAT.
I especially really liked the cementing quizzes, ability quizzes and conceptual quizzes which helped me simulate exam-like testing environments for Quant and Verbal sections. I also found the entire team very supportive, understanding of my schedule, and quick to respond. My mentor Dhruv Joshi was one of the most key players in my journey and I cannot thank him enough:) He would regularly check-in with me, respond to all my questions - his guidance and encouragement was invaluable. I had to take off days irregularly in between due to sudden professional commitments, and Dhruv really helped me here by checking in with me every 2-3 days and reminding me to go over my notes for even 30 minutes to keep the momentum going. A big challenge for me was accommodating GMAT prep along with my professional and other commitments and e-GMAT was invaluable in their support and guidance in helping me achieve my target score alongside.
I would 100% recommend GMAT test-takers to check out e-GMAT once before committing to test preparation. Further, I would also suggest that future GMAT test-takers go over the official guidelines about each of the sections very carefully and gain a thorough understanding of the structure of the exam. Going in with a thorough knowledge about what the exam asks for, along with a strong plan-of-action that takes into account one’s current ability and accommodates their schedule will lead to the best results. I would also ask potential test-takers to be patient with the process, not get dejected by small obstacles or failures, preserve and be consistent in your efforts and work with single-minded focus on your goals and you will surely do well.
Hi pv09
Congratulations on the fantastic score!
What a journey you’ve had!!
Your success is a testament to how important being self-aware during prep is. You introspected after your first attempt of 730 (Q49, V40) and realized that to go from a high score to a higher GMAT score needed much more than what you had been offering.
If someone looks at your Verbal Scholaranium scores today, no one will believe that Verbal was once your weakness. You turned this weakness into your strength with your patience- the patience to UNLEARN and then LEARN a more methodical approach to SC, CR, and RC. You took your Verbal abilities a notch higher by applying this structured approach
Take a glance at your Verbal Stats:
https://success.e-gmat.com/pv09-Verbal-Scholaranium-stats
Diligence and the right decisions during prep played a key role in helping you improve from V39 (88th Percentile in your 1st attempt) to V44 (96th Percentile in your 2nd attempt). Your most significant improvement was seen in CR. You improved your accuracy while simultaneously reducing the time to answer questions by applying the Pre-thinking process.
https://success.e-gmat.com/pv09-CR-Improvement
Your SIGma-X mock attempts gave the much-needed predictability, Your scores of Q49 on 2 mocks followed by 2 consecutive Q50 scores gave you the much-needed confidence to go out there and ace the Quant section
https://success.e-gmat.com/pv09-Quantscore-Prediction
When I look back at your journey, I can surely say that it had its own set of challenges. However, the way you rose above every challenge makes your achievement even more special.
pv09 , these traits of yours will help you throughout and we wish you the best!

Strengths:
- Great content and methodology
- Their cementing strategy is the absolute best
It will gruel you so much, you wouldn't need anything else
- Mentor support is absolutely irreplaceable. The mentors are so approachable, kind and efficient. That personalize the plan per your strengths and help you tackle you weakness. It was a game changer for me!
Would make the product better:
It's perfect!
I think taking egmat subscription was the best decision I made when I decided to enroll. The course structure is amazing and my mentor Aakash, was kind, encouraging, strict at times and he ensured he got the best out of me. My advice to anyone who is enrolling would be - just blindly do what your mentor tells you and just follow the process. Results will definitely come, in time.
Also, I am a total fan of the Egmat mocks. They were completely accurate, especially for me, and prepared me to face anything and everything on the exam. The adaptive nature of the mock and the question relevance, very much mirrors the really test.
I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to give their best shot at GMAT.
