Strengths:
The e-GMAT course is an excellent choice for anyone who wishes to excel at the GMAT exam. It provides a comprehensive and personalized study experience which is designed to help any test-taker from any background achieve their target score.
What I loved most about the course is that it includes video lessons, quizzes, and practice questions for each topic, allowing me to learn at my own pace the various topics tested.
E-GMAT offers personalized study plans that are tailored to each student's strengths and weaknesses. The plan we constructed helped me extensively in managing my time alongside my engineering studies and allowed me to achieve my target score.
In order to master the verbal section of the GMAT exam, the e-GMAT course provided me with the concept of meaning-based learning, which emphasizes understanding the meaning of sentences and paragraphs. This approach is particularly helpful for non-native English speakers such as myself who may struggle with the language.
Additionally, the quantitative section material is built in a way to aid the students fill their conceptual gaps and build knowledge from the ground up if necessary. Starting from the basics, The e-GMAT Quant section material delivers a series of Concept Files, which cover all the fundamental concepts tested on the GMAT. These Concept Files are designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of each concept, and they include examples and practice questions to help students apply what they have learned. E-GMAT also provides practice quizzes for each section of the Quant material, allowing students to test their skills and identify areas where they need more practice.
What is most fascinating about the course is e-GMAT's proprietary adaptive learning platform "Scholaranium" which allows students to practice and get feedback on a variety of question types. Students can choose to practice specific areas or topics that they are struggling with, or take full-length practice tests to simulate the GMAT test experience. You also have access to 5 full-length Mock exams which are extremely helpful in your preparation. These mock tests helped me track my progress and test myself prior to taking the official GMAT exam.
Furthermore, E-GMAT provided me with excellent customer support through emails. members of the e-gmat team were always so supportive and answered all my questions within a maximum of one day between emails.
Would make the product better:
Everything is perfect and well provided in the e-Gmat course. There is no field in which improvement is needed.
E-Gmat went above and beyond. They have helped me overcome all the difficulties I faced during my preparation for the big day. If you are looking to ace the gmat, E-Gmat is your best bet!
At first, I tried studying for the GMAT on my own, but as most people following my strategy would eventually realize, you can only go so far flying solo. So I had to request assistance from professionals. E-Gmat was the answer. With the help of my mentor Rashmi, who devised a very efficient study plan, I was able to progress step by step and reach new heights. It is her guidance and perseverance that contributed to my success. With her help, we were able to address lingering weaknesses and recurring flaws which I could have never solved on my own.
Her time and devotion to my GMAT journey outweigh all costs that I incurred during my training. I cannot possibly thank her and the members of the e-Gmat team enough for their contribution to my preparation as they paved my way to success. They make learning fun and worthwhile!
Strengths:
User friendly platform
I was referred e-Gmat by a friend and I'm so glad I referred to the e-gmat platform to get through the GMAT exam.
Some highlights of the platform and the e-Gmat team that are relevant for anybody considering e-gmat for their preps
• e-Gmat provides a structured approach to preparing for the test- this process driven approach really helped me in the verbal section in which topics are interlinked to a large extent and can be overwhelming even for some one who knows good English.
• The PACE tool in QA helped me in saving time in concepts I already had a good hold
• The subject matter and strategy experts are very helpful. All communication happens through emails and I always got a prompt response for my queries. My mentor, Akash, provided a lot of assistance by preparing customised plans and strategies for the test- he always kept me motivated. Overall, the e-Gmat team is great. Never felt like I’m dealing with people here to make money- it was more like the team is there to help me- in my opinion its very important to feel that way.
• All in all, great team, fabulous platform- never faced any technical issues and strong credibility.
Hi Govishta ,

Strengths:
EGMAT’s sentence correction course is one of the company's flagship offerings. The course is designed to help students improve their grammar and syntax skills to achieve a higher score on the GMAT's sentence correction questions. The course includes comprehensive video lessons, practice questions, and quizzes, as well as personalized feedback and support from expert instructors. EGMAT's quant course is also highly regarded, with a similar structure and emphasis on clear explanations and practice problems. These courses have earned EGMAT a loyal following among students who have seen significant improvements in their scores.
Would make the product better:
EGMAT’s reading comprehension and critical reasoning courses need significant improvement. These courses are essential components of GMAT preparation, but EGMAT's offerings in these areas are not as comprehensive or effective as its sentence correction and quant courses. The reading comprehension course provides basic strategies for tackling GMAT passages, but it lacks the depth and complexity necessary for success on the exam. Similarly, the critical reasoning course could benefit from more in-depth analysis and strategies to help students navigate the complex reasoning questions on the GMAT.
To become a well-rounded GMAT prep solution, EGMAT must improve its reading comprehension and critical reasoning courses. The company could invest in more robust video lessons, practice problems, and quizzes, as well as personalized feedback and support from expert instructors. Additionally, EGMAT could explore partnerships with experts in reading comprehension and critical reasoning to further enhance its offerings in these areas.
EGMAT is a popular online education company that specializes in providing high-quality courses to help students improve their GMAT scores. The company is known for its exceptional sentence correction and quant courses, which have helped thousands of students achieve their goals. However, despite its strengths, EGMAT needs major improvements in reading comprehension and critical reasoning to become a well-rounded GMAT prep solution.To become a well-rounded GMAT prep solution, EGMAT must improve its reading comprehension and critical reasoning courses.

Dear blackpanther911,
Congratulations on your score of 720 with a remarkable Q50 and a V38!
We are glad to hear that you found the SC and Quant Modules to be beneficial. The image below shows how you used the Scholaranium analytics to understand that Modifiers were your weaker area in SC and then how you improved your accuracy in it from 52% to 87% by practicing the meaning-based approach on a regular basis –
Image link - https://success.e-gmat.com/blackpanther911-SC-Improvement-Through-Analytics
You understood that succeeding in the GMAT was not just about the concepts, but also about time management. With every single mock, you improved your timing and your subsectional abilities in both Verbal and Quant. The below image shows your journey in Quant scores from mocks to the GMAT exam.

When I first heard about e-GMAT's GMAT Online 360 course, I was hesitant to enroll. I wasn't sure about taking an online course, and I was also a bit put off by the fact that there was no option to skip verbal videos. However, looking back now, I'm so glad that I took the leap and enrolled in the course. As it turned out, watching the verbal videos was incredibly helpful in building my foundation, and I'm convinced that it played a significant role in my score improvement.
While the course was video-based and didn't have any live instructors, the support that I received from the e-GMAT team was incredible. I had a few questions along the way, and I was always able to get in touch with someone who was knowledgeable and responsive. I want to give a special shoutout to Dhruv Joshi, who was particularly helpful in answering my questions and providing guidance throughout my preparation.
Prior to taking the e-GMAT course, I was quite disappointed with my first GMAT attempt, which resulted in a score of 640. However, thanks to the course's comprehensive content and effective teaching methods, I was able to improve my score by a whopping 60 points. My latest GMAT score is 700 (Q49, V36), which was a huge relief and has given me the confidence to pursue my MBA goals.
Overall, I would highly recommend e-GMAT's GMAT Online 360 course to anyone looking to improve their GMAT score. While I was initially hesitant, I'm so glad that I decided to take the course. The support from the e-GMAT team was invaluable, and the course itself was instrumental in my score improvement.
Hi RitwikGupta
My Heartiest Congratulations to you on your 700 score!
Your remarkable improvement of 60 points is a great accomplishment that deserves recognition. I commend you for your hard work and dedication in raising your score from 640 (64th Percentile) to 700 (87th percentile)
Your diligent efforts in studying the Concept files and Videos for Verbal have certainly paid off. Your commitment to building a strong foundation is evident, as seen in the image below.
https://success.e-gmat.com/RitwikGupta-Strong-Foundation
Additionally, your impressive Quant Scholaranium statistics are a testament to your dedication and hard work in creating a solid foundation for yourself.
https://success.e-gmat.com/RitwikGupta-Quant-Scholaranium-stats
Your confidence on the test day was a result of your consistent success, as you could predict your performance by simply glancing at your last two Sigma-X mock scores, which were 710 and 700 respectively. Here is the image displaying your last few mock scores:
https://success.e-gmat.com/RitwikGupta-SIGma-X-mock-scores
In the end, I would like to mention that it was a thorough pleasure working with you towards this achievement.
On behalf of e-GMAT, I wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Congratulations once again!
Best regards,
Dhruv
Strengths:
1. Keeps the naturalness required to tackle GMAT intact
2. Sufficient depth and sectional focus for good score
Would make the product better:
Not much
I used the E-Gmat portal for just a month and ten days. Firstly, I am very confident that if I would have used for another month, I would easily have cracked above 760.
Verbal:
Sentence Correction: I only attended a webinar by Ms. Payal Tandon and if not more atleast sixty pc of job related to SC was done. She taught how to just go with the meaning. This put the intensive grammar at the back foot and allowed me to focus on real issue. I did do the portal's grammar lessons but meaning based approach was most important. Frankly, I didn't have any time to give a mock test. In the exam, I just attempted with the meaning.
CR: They give sufficient practice with the help of lessons.
RC: E-Gmat's lessons revolved around basic reading skills and this is what is required for RC. The lesson taught me how to pause and summarize at the right time. I was already an avid reader and I just needed this training to attempt objective content of GMAT.
Quant: Sufficient practise is required for quant even though one is an engineer. Here also I did not have enough time to attempt all the lessons. But managed to get 88percentile
Overall, the portal has excellent other techniques to improve score and that would have easily helped to cross 760.
Hi khandelwalsidd,
Congratulations on your 710!
Thank you for taking out the time and sharing your feedback and we are glad we could be part of your journey.
I am pleased to know that you found the meaning-based approach in Sentence Correction helpful and were able to see an improvement in your accuracy. Here is an image where your stronghold on the process translated into exceptional accuracy across SC blocks.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Exceptional-SC-accuracy-across-blocks
Although you were naturally strong in RC, it's great to hear that you still found the reading skills such as pause points and summarization helpful in improving your skills. It's impressive to see the effort you put into the course, as shown in the image.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/RC-strategies-helped-improve-accuracy
You have rightly pointed out the importance of sufficient practice, even for individuals with an engineering background, when it comes to the quantitative section. Despite not having enough time to attempt all the lessons, you were able to achieve a Q48.
You made the most of your limited time by staying focused and as a result, you excelled in the test.
I, on behalf of the entire e-GMAT team, wish you all the best for the next steps.

Abha Mohan
Strengths:
Course material is a strength
Their Support team is very resourceful
Would make the product better:
The verbal section needs AI.
Support team can be proactive in asking if their students have difficulties
I didnt talk to the support team until i had severe difficulties.I would've probably done the prep faster if the support team were in constant touch with me since the very start instead of waiting for me to ask for help
The links that are sent to Us when we ask for help should be readily available in our dashboard
ie- for trouble in Verbal watch this video on visualisation by harsha
It will help a lot of students
I had a score improvement of 130 points.
I went from being super weak in verbal from v22 to v35
The main USP is the help/support
I suggest everyone to be in constant touch with the egmat support team.Talk to them atleast once a week and ask them for tips and vids to improve
ask them for help they are the best out there.
I was struggling with everything in verbal
I reached out to the support team in desperation they sent links to videos which helped me a lot.
All i want to say to people reading this is
Make sure you give yourself adequate time for prep
I thought i would complete my prep in 2 months but actually felt like i was never prepared
Finally even though i still felt like i needed more time
I just booked a date and gave the exam
You dont need to be perfect at the first try
Please dont think the way i did
I thought i will first perfect myself and then book the exam date.This led me to go in to a downward spiral where i was prepping day in and day out without any foreseeable date.
Just book the exam date and give it
You can iterate on it if you feel like you need better
Dear aymankhan92,
Congratulations on your score of 680 with a Q48 and a V35! A 130-point improvement overall and a 13-point improvement in Verbal is a phenomenal achievement and everyone here at e-GMAT is so happy to have been a part of your journey.
You were always willing to understand where you were going wrong and where you could improve in Verbal. The image below shows how you used the Scholaranium analytics to understand that Verbs were your weaker area in SC and then how you improved your accuracy in it from 19% to 69% by practicing the meaning-based approach on a regular basis –
Image link - https://success.e-gmat.com/aymankhan92-SC-Improvement-Through-Analytics
You did not stop yourself right there. You gave this effort in all the subsections in Verbal. Through your consistent efforts in Verbal, you got that 13-point improvement in Verbal from V22 to V35.
It was interesting to read about your approach to booking the test date. We as mentors suggest students book the exam date once they score within 10-20 points of their target range in 2 consecutive mocks. However, it is fascinating to see your improvement from your first mock to the last mock in the span of almost 5 months. The below image shows your journey from the mocks to the actual exam –
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/aymankhan92-Mock-Scores-Improvement
We appreciate all your feedback, and we strive to put forward the best experience for you and we take every feedback as an opportunity to improve further.
You have greater heights to climb, and I am sure that you can overcome any situation ahead after this journey.
All the very best for your next steps!

Verified GMAT Classic score:
700 Q50 V34 (Online)
Strengths:
Verbal Module and SigmaX Mocks
Would make the product better:
The quant module is too easy or not reflective of the true GMAT difficulty. This could be significantly revamped and improved.
Verbal Module and SigmaX Mocks are AMAZING! I really benefited from these two product features. I have improved my verbal score from V24 to V34 with eGMAT's thoughtful course content and exam strategy.
SigmaX mocks are very informative to simulate the CAT environment, more effective for exam sprint time prep.
The quant module is too easy or not reflective of the true GMAT difficulty. This could be significantly revamped and improved.
Overall, I really recommend this product! The regular pricing is a bit too expensive IMO. I got my package on sale during the summer, better value for money. I would recommend to get the package when it has promotion unless you don't care about the cost of the course.
Dear greenhouse7,
Congratulations on your score of 700 with a V34 and a remarkable Q50! An 80-point improvement overall with a 10-point improvement in Verbal from V24 to V34 is a phenomenal feat to achieve.
You were always willing to understand where you were going wrong and where you could improve in Verbal.

Strengths:
1. The online platform built by e-GMAT which helps you assess you strengths and weaknesses with respect to sub-topics, difficulty level and timing.
2. The dedicated support through mentors (part of the Last Mile Program only) who chart out a prep plan allocating time to be spent on learning concepts and solving questions.
Would make the product better:
1. The Quant problem banks have some unnecessarily difficult questions. These are beyond what is tested by the GMAT.
2. The Last Mile Program and the terms and conditions should be described clearly during the first introduction call. They are brought into the picture only after the test taker has purchased and enrolled into the course.
I gave my final GMAT attempt on 4th March 2023 and scored a 740 (Q49, V42). This was my second attempt, less than three weeks after my initial attempt (690 - Q48, V37) on 13th Feb 2023. In between both attempts, I signed up for e-GMAT's $149 course.
I first came to know of e-GMAT through their Youtube channel when I was watching their Sentence Correction videos on the Meaning-based Approach. I liked their approach because it felt quite natural and relatable to how I had approached SC questions when I had attempted them without any preparation. Most importantly, it took the focus away from Grammar rules, at least partially, which I had dreaded from the time I was in middle school. After my first attempt, I felt that I needed professional help to identify and address my weaknesses in a pin-pointed manner but in a short amount of time. After my introductory call with Mansi from e-GMAT, I was convinced that they would be able to help me in the hyper-customized fashion that I was looking for.
Based on my ESR from the first attempt and a few diagnostic quizzes I took over a week during the evenings, the strategy expert from e-GMAT, Rida, helped me with a day-wise plan to address my weaknesses. Within 3-4 days, we were able to cover most of the topics and were ready to re-evaluate my test-readiness through a Sigma-X mock. While my overall performance on the mock was not as expected, it did give me confidence on some of the topics I had worked upon during the preceding week. Eventually, during my second attempt, just 12 days since my journey with e-GMAT started, I was able to apply the learnings from the concepts, practice questions and mock that e-GMAT provided to land on a score I was glad to accept.
The concepts that were instrumental to boost my confidence were around Sentence Correction - Comparisons and Modifiers. The deep-dives into topics like As vs Like were extremely helpful. I was also able to brush up my concepts of Geometry and Inequalities as it had been a while since I had put them to use. While I do feel that the phase-wise prep style at e-GMAT is extremely helpful as a comprehensive prep strategy, what worked for my time-sensitive use-case was the analytics-driven approach to identify my weaknesses across topics, difficulty level of questions and the time taken to solve questions.
I would definitely recommend e-GMAT to test-takers who are at a stage where I was when I approached them, i.e., if you are scoring 650+ and need the help of tools and a professional to pin-point your weaknesses and work on them to achieve a 700+ score. I’m sure e-GMAT has a lot more to offer to a lot more people, but in my limited interaction of 12 days, they were able to help me in a time-sensitive hyper-customized manner. The motivation that Rida, my strategy expert sent my way was the icing on the cake.
Hey Glancer97,
Congrats on GMAT 740!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review! This is Rida, your mentor- it was a real pleasure working with you on your journey to your target score!
Your dedication to giving it your all in the two weeks that we worked together was evident in your prompt completion of milestones and the way you utilised the course to tackle certain areas where you required additional support. This is most evident in SC where you improved your accuracy to 76%.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Glancer97-SC-Improvement-stats
Since we were working on an extremely limited time frame, every step had to be precise and to the point, so that not a minute of study time was mis utilised. Thus, for each day, you had extremely clear plans as to what needed to be tackled, what improvement you needed to see, what scores you needed to achieve and more. And you made sure to follow these steps to the letter and trust the process.
I admire your drive and confidence- even when you didn’t get the best score on your last mock, you still believed in your abilities and did your best to learn from the experience, rather than let it bring you down.
Thank you for your feedback regarding the quant questions – we believe that preparing for the GMAT is like preparing for war and there is no such thing as over preparation. As for the Last Mile Program- it is something that we discuss often on our YouTube channel but is meant for students in the last stages of their prep who have gone through the course. Your unique situation and starting score where what allowed you to join the program from the get-go. However, all e-GMATers can get help and guidance from mentors by writing to us at [email protected].
All the very best for what comes next!
Regards,
Rida
Strengths:
Nice concept building. Detailed course
Would make the product better:
Mentor guidance was an issue for me. My mentor was not assigned to me in the starting. Only when i sent them mails during my last leg of preparation i was given a mentor. She too only gave tasks and never had a call with me
With many online courses available it is very important to get enrolled in one which is inline with your thought process.
One of the best feature about Egmat is the video solutions for almost all the questions. They have a detailed course available with them. One can easily build a solid foundation with their course.
What lacked for me was the exam readiness preparation from their side. On comparing the ESR from my attempt to my Egmat dashboard, things did not match. I knew of my strengths and my weaknesses which was not the same on their dashboard but quite inline with my ESR.
This is why i would urge each student to take up the free trail given by different courses and see if they are actually inline with your thinking process.
Dear devtashrey,
Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback on our course. We are glad to hear that you found the video solutions and the course to be beneficial for building solid foundations.
We understand that our course may not meet the needs of every individual, and we appreciate your specific suggestions for improvement, especially to test out the trial versions of a course before coming to a final decision.
We are sorry to hear about your experience with the mentor guidance. We strive to put forward the best experience for you and we take every feedback as an opportunity to improve further.
We respect your opinion about the comparison of an ESR with the Scholaranium dashboard. However, the Scholaranium dashboard represents a comprehensive representation of your progress over more than 1000 questions in Verbal or Quant, not just the data from a single day,
Please reach out to us if you have any further suggestions or comments.
We wish you all the best for your next steps in the future!

Strengths:
- Well-structured course plan
- Decent price/value ratio
- Consultant - Rida Shafeek who was willing to schedule call with me very fast and gave a lot of quick tips and motivated me when I felt down and needed to improve rapidly in 20 days
- Very fast responses of instructors in discussions
Would make the product better:
- Length of some video courses. Sometimes the instructor went too much in detail (e.g. devoted a 17-minute video) with relatively easy and obvious topics
- Inaccurate calibration of easy, medium, hard questions. When I turned on some custom test and selected medium questions - it also gave me some easy and hard ones...
- In Verbal sections some correct answer choices were very poorly defended by instructors in discussion queries. However, this does not happen often.
Overall satisfied with this product.

Hey JulianJ,
Congratulations on a massive 180-point improvement!! This is Rida, your mentor. I am ecstatic to hear about your success!
I know that you were willing to put in all the effort to get to your target score. Just looking at the snapshot below- you gave it your 100% in the SC modules, so you could perfect the concepts that would enable success.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/JulianJ-SC-Efforts
The reason why we explain in such detail is so that non-native speakers and people who are not as familiar with the intricacies of the English language can acquire all the knowledge, they need to ace the Verbal section of the GMAT.
I think the discrepancies in question difficulty that you faced were in RC. In RC, the passages are classified as easy, medium and hard. Even when you pick a medium passage, you may face easy or hard questions. The difficulty level in the case of RC is therefore by passage, not by individual question.
Thank you for your suggestions! We are always looking to make improvements and grow to help more people reach their target score.
I am glad to know that I could help you on the way to your success.
I wish you all the best!!
Regards,
Rida
Dear JadKhairallah,
Congratulations on a humongous 200-point improvement to 680😊, with a 23-point improvement in quant and a 14-point improvement in verbal.
Being a non-native speaker, you knew that GMAT verbal was a challenge. You did not let this deter you but rather followed a structured approach to build the ability.
The time that you invested in building the foundation and then mastering the meaning-based approach really helped you improve your SC accuracy across all blocks that helped you go from 34%ile to a 70th percentile ability in SC:
Image link : https://success.e-gmat.com/JadKhairallah-SC-Accuracy-across-Blocks
I am really glad that you leveraged the data analytics on the Scholaranium to identify and work on your areas of weakness. See how this data-driven approach helped you improve to a 75% accuracy in CR while reducing the overall time to 1min 48sec:
Image link: https://success.e-gmat.com/JadKhairallah-CR-Accuracy-vs-Timing
In Quant, I am glad the course architecture of introducing concepts and applications and then testing it out through practice quizzes was helpful. This along with a structured, data-driven approach helped you improve by a massive 23-points to a Q48.
During GMAT prep, being able to predict ability and understand areas of improvement points is critical. I am happy that the SIGma-X mocks were helpful not only to predict your final score but identify areas of improvement and track your progress. This image shows and how the SIGma-X mocks were able to predict the final score:
Image Link: https://success.e-gmat.com/Mock-scores-Predict-Success
Jad, I must say, it has been wonderful working with you as your mentor and I am impressed with the hard work you put into the preparation. I wish you all the best for your future.
Best Regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
