Strengths:

None

Would make the product better:

Everything, Need to be concise and precise

I took their course, twice due to something that happened at home.
The very first thing, when you renew the course - they try to charge you more than the new course which is weird. Somebody need extension, it should be done at reduced rates.
On top of that, their course does not cover everything that may come in GMAT. DI section needs massive improvement. The tests need to be AI based and should adjust to students but looks like, they are just interested in selling the course.
Also, you can connect with them only through email and they take their sweet time to revert back which is approximately 24 hours!!!

Strengths:

no strength crap course and crap support.

Would make the product better:

i dont think they are there to improve only to sell their course is definitely not for someone looking to improve in 1 month.

took a 1 month plan to improve on my Verbal score which was 38 and 35 in my two attempts and after spending 1 month on their portal I got a V31. The portal is good but the support and the course material are not good for someone at 70% in all CR, SC and RC as when you have all three at this level the data fails as it will ask you to do all the course work and that will be impossible to do in 1 month with work commitments.
regarding the support- I am not sure about other companies on how they communicate with their students but E-Gmat only do it via mail and that too is in 24 hrs, which will not work if you have your deadline in just one month.

Pros - Scholaranium to practice questions

Cons - Students may probably sleep listening to their videos for Verbal. No feature of listening to videos at 1.5x/2x plus lack of mentorship from the company. The experience was more of singing up for some AI based service.
SC may be a little average but a big big no for CR and RC.
Ideally such a well known company should have gone an extra mile to help students.
EGMAT team is quite unwilling to accept that their course was sub standard. I was wondering how a 4.9 review company can produce such a horrible course. Signing up with EGMAT is waste of both time and money.

I followed the e-GMAT intensive study plan. I started with Quant and later continued with SC. After four months, I have really seen enough. What I am gonna say now will definitely upset some people, but I have talked to multiple people with the same opinion about the e-GMAT course.

For quant, the course certainly goes through all the relevant topics on the GMAT. However, there are multiple flaws:
(1) The practice questions are often unrealistic, nothing like the official questions
(2) The explanations to the solutions are often very confusing, and the comments section provides no real background to the reasoning behind a certain approach to a quant question. I feel like it is more about solving a particular question, rather than actually understanding the underlying concept.

For verbal, the course is even worse imo:
(1) The question quality is bad, really bad. Prove for this? One week before my official exam in which I got a 740 (Q48 V44), I took a SC diagnostic test from e-GMAT and had 3 out of 10 questions correct. I received a V44, and I am sure my verbal didn't improve that much within a week. In official questions I normally got at least 9 out of 10 correct, but the unofficial questions from e-GMAT really do not resemble the official questions.

(2) The "pre-thinking" approach for CR almost killed my CR ability. I really had to "unlearn" the approach later! After I used different materials (I will introduce that later), CR was probably my strongest section on the GMAT.

I could say many more things about the e-GMAT course that I didn't like, but I think I really wasted 3 months for this course. After 4 months I took another diagnostic exam and got a 530. Not very impressive after 4 months of almost full-time study. e-GMAT really has some strong marketing and it also got me. They throw around with fancy words like, SigmaX mocks, Scholarinium, AI, data-driven, and all this blabla..really, a test prep company that truly generates impressive results doesn't need such words for their marketing. Additionally, the success stories are impressive, but e-GMAT has hundreds if not thousands of clients. Obviously, with such a large sample there will be some great success stories. But for the majority of students I do NOT recommend the course at all. To improve your score, use TTP.

I had a 710 gmat score and i wanted to improve my score, so i signed up for egmat since it is marketed as the best online gmat course on gmatclub.

Below are my reviews on each section of the Egmat course.

Sentence Correction: I would rate it as average since there isn't anything extraordinary thing in this section.

Critical reasoning: Average

RC: Poor. There are just few videos and RC passages in the course.

Quant: It is just a waste of time and money. If you follow the strategy that is taught in the course, you will be unable to solve any question on the test day in under 2 mins.

After studying for approx 5 months from egmat, I scored 700 that is 10 points less than my earlier attempt.

The best part of Egmat is its marketing team. Hats off to them. Other prep companies must learn from Egmat's marketing team.

At the time of sign up, Egmat team might offer you a discount of 50% on official mocks, but later they wouldn't hold onto that commitment.

Let's talk about e-GMAT's practice to allure prospective students into buying their packages.
They have a lecture for QR where they will assess your level and then recommend you a path you should follow to improve. In that lecture, the standard of questions used is so far from actual questions that appear on GMAT exams that that exam can never be a fine predictor of where you're at. The questions in e-GMAT's test are purposefully constructed to waste your time, making it absolutely difficult for students to write that exam well and in time. Well, even if I'm wrong about the malice in their intent, that exam would mean that e-GMAT absolutely incompetent in predicting what kind of help a student needs. Anyway, the result is that students feel knackered, and end up purchasing their online course. This is what exactly happened with me at least.

Even their sigma-X mock exams follow a similar pattern. Their SC questions only try to increase the difficulty level by increasing the length of almost every SC question, a situation that would never occur on real GMAT exam.

My point is, e-GMAT's course is so far away from what would appear on a real GMAT that it can't be a great estimation of your score, and their course can't take a student in the right direction. My scores in Sigma-X under standard conditions were 610 and 580.

One final point, a nonnative who has studied courses throughout their life in English should never purchase their study materials to prepare for Verbal. The reading comprehension course does nothing to add to abilities of such students.

Someone might argue that I got a 610 in sigma-X and 610 on real GMAT. I could talk at length on why I failed miserably in my first GMAT attempt, but in nut-shell, it had nothing to do with e-GMAT. I did fairly well in my second attempt, and it definitely did not have anything to do with e-GMAT. I simply left using their materials after assessing the quality of their questions.

Their course is not reflective of reality, so take anything they advertise with a grain of salt.


If you see this e-GMAT, please don't write that I did not complete your modules to actually benefit from them, just like you respond to other negative reviews. I was in a good position to assess that your courses were not taking me anywhere in my GMAT saga.
And I agree I'm venting out my frustration because I feel this is the worst way I could have spent $299.

I tried E-Gmat Verbal for few months(signed up in July 2019) and I found it be very lacking regards to the content. Also I feel their questions in the Scholaranium to be harder than usual. Overall, I found it very hard to finish their course and I felt that their layout of content to be a bit lacking. My verbal score did not increase even a bit after spending few months with E-gmat Verbal. I feel they do a lot of marketing for their course to gain people but wish they would put more effort towards the course. I also got a lot of their promotional emails which can get quite annoying and had to unsubscribe eventually. Their money back guarantee is also bogus I feel.

It hurts me a little to write such a negative review but I feel it is my obligation to save other potential test takers from wasting their precious time and money. In short: do NOT use eGMAT. The quant section is absolutely awful. eGMAT is EXTREMELY shallow. They only briefly dive into each quant topic and do not provide enough examples to truly master a subject. I'm not kidding when I say for some topics they only provide 5 practice problems. In addition to this, and this is the absolute saddest part of this dreadful service, the quant problems written by eGMAT are LITTERED with grammatical errors. They are not written by native English speakers and it shows. Since this is a test prep service, this is absolutely unacceptable. Additionally, their platform is unintuitive to navigate to the point where I could not find solutions for certain questions I had answered. For reference, I've also used materials from Manhatten, Veritas, OG, GMAT Club, Powerscore, Target Test Prep and EmpowerGMAT, so I'm well aware of what options exist in the market. eGMAT is absolutely not a leading platform. Do not buy into their marketing ploys (which is how they got me). Please take this review to heart, and go with a different service that can actually help you achieve your dreams of getting into your dream school. Buyer be warned! Go elsewhere for your prep! Seriously!

I took E-GMAT GMAT-ONLINE course.I did not find the course at all useful.Only the SC part was helpful for me.Critical reasoning has been made difficult by EGMAT team.Negation technique as prescribed by EGMAT is unnecessary complicated.RC is not good

Quant section is totally waste.Lot of basics which are not required are there in quants section.

The worst part of Egmat team was that ,if you ask any question which you have doubt and if the same question is not there in their material,they will not help you with the question.Only answer you will get is:we do not support private tutoring.

Only useful section for me was SC.When i went through Manhatten SC guide i found improvement in SC.CR part could have been made much easier.However EGMAT team with their negation technique has made it worse.

E-GMAT is recommended only for SC.
