Strengths:

The e-GMAT course offers a very structured and process oriented approach to the Verbal section,which generally troubles the non-native speakers the most. This is probably the most significant differentiator of the course. The course focuses immensely on the process of solving rather than merely solving the question correct. I believe this focus on correct process and structured approach to questions is a must for a great score .

I did not start my Gmat journey with e-GMAT. I started with two other Gmat prep courses, one after the other, which are also available on GMAT club. I did work as diligently as I did in the e-GMAT course, sticking to 'AI curated plan', taking live classes and following every step instructed by the experts.
I did not have a process to address different types of question that Gmat offers. I ended up just mugging up lots of grammar rules, skimming through passages, and following all sorts of shortcuts and gimmicks. With confused efforts the results were also confusing, Gmat mock scores ranging from 650 to 750 in 10+ mocks. The scores were very inconsistent. However, I went on with my First Gmat attempt and scored a 650(Q50,V27).

Disappointed with my official score and not knowing what to do next, I attended the e-Gmat free session and then I realised that I neither had a process nor a focus on key aspects such as author's intended meaning in SC, his line of reasoning in CR or the intention behind an RC passage. Thus, after the free session ,I joined the e-GMAT course.

As I completely followed the e-Gmat course, the most difficult part was not to learn the new process oriented approach but to get rid of the gimmicks and solving techniques that I had learned earlier. I followed the course plan sincerely and thus my accuracies improved in all the verbal sub-sections. As I put in diligent efforts, so I got into the Last Mile Program and I got a dedicated mentor.

I am very thankful to Rida mam for guiding me through the whole process, for attending to different weak areas one by one and most importantly for hearing out all my woes and cries with verbal for so long.

Since then ,my GMAT scores have only gone up. I recently scored a V42 on the official Gmat,which is yet to be officially reported. I doubt that this jump from V27 were possible without the constant help and mentorship from Rida mam. The Last Mile program is really one of its kind and really helped me focus on the key aspects. This includes understanding at a granular level what my strengths and weaknesses are and helping me to build the right strategy to work on them.

I now have a structured process to solve the verbal section, a process that focuses on understanding the author and realising the true intent of a passage rather than on merely solving. It is now that I realise the beauty of this test, and what skills it focuses on. This realisation took quite a long time as I wasted a lot of precious time on gimmicks and shortcuts suggested by other prep companies in my earlier phases of Gmat Prep.

- It is a very lengthy course, not sure how they can make this better though

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the incredible experience with e-GMAT's GMAT exam coaching. Their expert guidance and resources have taken my GMAT journey to new heights. In September 2023, I achieved a remarkable score of 700, a significant leap from my initial 600 in December 2021. This achievement holds an even deeper meaning because I struggled with the GMAT for nearly three long years, and it took a considerable mental toll on me.

The most astounding progress was in the Verbal section, where I soared from a 27 to a remarkable 41, landing me in the 93rd percentile! This dramatic improvement wouldn't have been possible without e-GMAT's invaluable support. It was a ray of hope after years of struggling with Verbal.

E-GMAT's approach to critical reasoning is a true game-changer. I made an astonishing leap from the 38th percentile to the 95th percentile in this challenging section, and I owe it all to their pre-thinking methodology. This approach, which was initially a daunting task for me, turned out to be the key to my success.

Throughout my e-GMAT journey, I was impressed by their well-structured courses, comprehensive study material, and a plethora of practice questions. The detailed analytics and personalized study plans ensured I focused on my weak areas, which was instrumental in my success. The support from the e-GMAT team was always prompt and incredibly helpful.

I wholeheartedly recommend e-GMAT to anyone looking to excel on the GMAT, especially if you've faced challenges over an extended period. Whether you are aiming to achieve a high score or boost your performance in a specific section, e-GMAT's courses and strategies are the key to unlocking your potential. I'm currently utilizing their Last Mile Program to further boost my score and refine my skills, and I can already see the impact it's making. Thank you, e-GMAT and especially Abha Mohan, for helping me reach my GMAT goals after years of struggle. Your pre-thinking approach has truly made a difference in my life!

Strengths:

Topic covered, Structure, Online classes/Seminars

Would make the product better:

Make the content a bit more concise as it is a lot to cover to have efficient learning.

SC course - Awesome +++ really Awesome. I only started this course from last week of Aug and could only do the concepts and exercises once and regret not being able to do them second time. This is worth every penny esp. for non-natives. CR course - I could not complete this course (as I purchased this part towards the end mainly to review concepts). I did have some additional learning while doing this course esp. Pre-thinking part! Maths/ quants was also very well structured nut overall I prefer to work based on my weaknesses and strengths and I prefer to make my own schedule. Hence, for me this was not a good ad on service.

E-GMAT's Online 360 course was an absolute game-changer in my pursuit to boost my GMAT score from 720 to 750. The course content, covering both Verbal and Quantitative sections, is incredibly comprehensive, with a unique and effective "Pre-thinking" approach for Critical Reasoning and the "Variable Approach" for Data Sufficiency. The Scholaranium platform provided a wealth of practice questions and detailed performance analytics, allowing me to focus on my weaknesses. E-GMAT's excellent support system, Live Sessions, and user-friendly interface created a conducive learning environment. Most importantly, I achieved my 30-point score increase thanks to this course. While it might seem like an investment, the tangible results and invaluable support make it a worthwhile choice for any serious GMAT aspirant. E-GMAT Online 360 is, without a doubt, a top-notch GMAT preparation program.

Quant methodology and strategies

e-GMAT follows a three-step process, which comprises Concept Files, Cementing, and Test Readiness. The first step comprises learning concepts in the form of very well-defined and interesting video lectures, notes, and quizzes. The course also has functionality, which by using various quizzes helped me to understand my current strengths and weaknesses in a topic, and accordingly, it suggests the topics I could skip and topics I should cover in order to bridge the gaps in the least amount of time. In this stage, I was able to understand each concept thoroughly and build a solid foundation required for acing GMAT.

In the Cementing phase, the course allowed me to apply those learned concepts in more GMAT like questions in a timely manner, building my problem-solving skills, enhancing my speed, and improving accuracy in both Quant and Verbal sections.

In the test readiness stage, I used the course's data analytics tool to understand the areas where I was weak and more focus was required, and I used custom Scholaranium quizzes to improve my ability in those areas. The mocks included in this course are computer adaptive tests and follow algorithms very similar to the those of official GMAT exam. Egmat Mocks are very accurate predictors of actual GMAT score and provide in-depth data analysis which is very similar to ESR.

While learning a new skill we are bound to make errors but the key to ace GMAT is to learn from our errors and do not repeat them. For this process, EGMAT suggests the use of error logs and provides very good templates to maintain error logs. Maintaining and revising error logs made me understand the mistakes in my approach and the wrong patterns that I was unconsciously repeating.

Strengths:

The verbal modules, particularly the SC and CR sections, are well structured.
e-GMAT mock tests are reliable.
The questions featured in Scholaranium match the standards set by official questions.

Would make the product better:

I recommend implementing a feature that allows users to increase the playback speed of videos in the core e-GMAT modules.

I took my first GMAT attempt on December 5th, 2022, just before the round 2 deadlines. Initially, my preparation solely relied on studying a grammar module I found online. Unfortunately, my results, especially in the verbal section, fell short of my target score. Recognizing my lack of strategy, I understood the need for a more comprehensive approach.

After extensive research, I chose e-GMAT as my preferred prep solution, and it proved to be an excellent decision. The most valuable aspect of e-GMAT for me was its structured problem-solving process. The meaning-based approach for Sentence Correction (SC) and the pre-thinking step for Critical Reasoning (CR) were precisely what I needed. I thoroughly covered both the SC and CR sections. The content was well-structured, breaking down complex concepts into manageable, smaller parts.

In addition to the theory, the Verbal Scholaranium section offered a wealth of questions comparable in quality to official ones. Keeping error logs and attempting both cementing and custom quizzes added significant value to my preparation. Thanks to thoroughly covering the e-GMAT verbal section, I achieved a remarkable 10-point improvement in my verbal scaled score, rising from 31 to 41. I highly recommend e-GMAT.

Strengths:

The Verbal section was good, especially the practice questions after each section. Helped me build my knowledge step by step.

Would make the product better:

I prefer to read and learn at my own pace. E-Gmat mostly has video explanations for everything. Though they did have written explanations for lots of questions, I would love to see more of that so people have the option to read or watch a video.

Quant: I didn't really do most of the Lessons for quant from e-gmat, but I did do practice questions for all topics, and those were nothing to complain about. All questions had good explanations.

Verbal: I did all the lessons for verbal, and it really helped me. The questions were well explained and the content was quite good as well. I really used to struggle with SC, but all the tips and tricks taught in the course helped me improve. I didn't really retain most of the grammar rules by the end of the course, but I did gain an understanding of how to go about solving a question and analyzing the problems.

Hey everyone! I recently took the GMAT and scored a 700, which is a 10-point improvement from my previous score of 690. I scored 690 two times before joining e-gmat. Before going through with e-gmat, I went through many reviews posted on Gmat Club and found e-gmat would be a good platform for me to improve my verbal score. I first had my ESR analyzed by Dhruv Joshi, who was also my mentor for the preparation journey. He curated a plan to make sure I solidified my verbal skills.

The E-gmat course was very structured, having modules for each topic. One thing that stood out to me was the content. Everything was covered properly, and their meaning-based approach to every question helped me a lot. I was struggling in CR before, but the pre-thinking framework that is taught in e-gmat helped me with CR tremendously. Their cementing quizzes made sure that I solidified my learning.

Their quant course content is also really good. And the Sigma-X mocks closely mimic the real GMAT. I would suggest they add the AWA and IR sections as well to the mocks. Also, it would be better if the response times to emails by the support team were a bit faster.

My mentor, Dhruv Joshi, has been very helpful to me in this journey, as he guided me in the best way possible.

Overall, I was happy with the course and recommend others also to give it a try.

Strengths:

1. Course structure is excellent
2. I highly recommend their mentorship program
3. I really like the AI functionality in the Quant section
4. Verbal Prep is on point, especially for SC and CR
5. Difficulty of their mock tests is similar to the actual exam’s difficulty

Would make the product better:

1. Maybe need some work on the RC section prep
2. Should think about offering the basic mentorship program at a much cheaper cost so that all students can benefit

I’m really grateful to e-GMAT for helping me through this journey. I’m a working professional in the finance industry with limited availability of free time, especially on weekdays. I was looking for a solution that helps me stick to my preparation timeline and provides me with a structured course to follow without me having to spend time figuring out what I need to study next. e-GMAT met my objectives perfectly. I had a mentor assigned by e-GMAT, Akash Aggarwal, who constantly pushed me to commit a certain number of hours per week for the GMAT prep. Also, the course structure of e-GMAT is so easy to follow. You just need to trust the process.

To be honest, my GMAT prep journey was anything but smooth. In all, my prep time was about 9 months. It included 3 months of no prep due to work commitments. Frankly, it was frustrating at times given the impact of these uncontrollable events on my prep timeline. However, the regular check-ins with Akash and his guidance really helped me push through this journey. I did give an attempt after my 8 months of prep. However, due to the final day exam anxiety, I panicked in the verbal section and, as a result, I had to cancel my score. I was really disappointed and was probably thinking about not giving another attempt. However, Akash made me realize that I was test ready and that I had to just work on my mindset for the final day. Thus, I prepped for one more month and gave another attempt, in which I was much more under control and ended up doing well.

For me, e-GMAT played the following three important roles in my journey:
1. Provided a highly structured course
2. Assigned me Akash as my mentor (I highly recommend him in case you end up opting for the e-GMAT’s mentorship program!!!)
3. Offered an excellent preparation module for the verbal section (was really important to me given I’m a non-native English speaker)

If you’re thinking about giving GMAT and are in the similar boat I was (working professional, limited time availability, non-native speaker), I highly recommend subscribing to e-GMAT.

Strengths:

- Course Content
- Course structure (3 stage learning)
- Mentorship
- Mocks Quality
- PACE Learning in Quant
- Skill Analysis

Would make the product better:

Error logs can be made a part of the course structure itself, where we are able to log reasons where the question went wrong.

The course content by egmat is extremely comprehensive and covers all aspects needed score 700+. I found the user interface better than any other prep company which was a big plus point.

I also liked the way the course is structured i.e. Learning, Cementing and Test Readiness, which ensures all weak areas are covered with multiple attempts.

The quality of questions is top notch and almost GMAT Like in Verbal. In Quant, they equip you with all the concepts really well, I was able to improve on almost all of my weak areas just with the course content.

The mentorship provided by my mentor Ms. Abha Mohan was very valuable. She guided me with corrective actions whenever I was in doubt or going the wrong way.

The mocks that come with the course are GMAT Like and the score prediction is spot on. The Skill data analysis and details of attempt post every mock is an added bonus which can really help to identify grey areas.
