Being a non-native speaker, I was literally struggling in verbal and my score remained stagnant for quite some time. After analysing mock tests, I have realised that SC was my pain point. Looking desperately for help, I came across e-GMAT's Verbal online course and went ahead with it.

I religiously followed the SC approach explained in the concept files and within no time, my Verbal score increased significantly. e-GMAT has helped me structure my approach towards verbal and played a huge role in improving both accuracy and speed.

I will recommend e-GMAT's verbal online course 11 out of 10 times if you are struggling in verbal (especially sentence correction).

After almost a 10 year break from academia, I wanted a course that could really help me develop a solid foundation for my verbal skills. Also the fact that I had not been using English as a primary language for conversation in all these years made things even more difficult for me. After a lot of deliberation and attending a lot of free webinars from e-GMAT, I finally decided on e-GMAT verbal online course. And honestly, I was not disappointed at all. The online course did help me create sound basics and strategies to tackle different types of questions. The webinars and personalized doubt solving sessions complemented the course content very well. The practice questions and explanations provided in the scholaranium are of great quality and the inbuilt analytics help you identify and focus on your weak areas.
I scored a 570 on my first mock test before the course, and by the time i finished the course and practice from scholaranium i scored a 700 on a GMAT prep 2 on the day before my actual test (my first attempt on which i scored a 690). In the end I was pretty satisfied with my score in the first attempt and of course it took a lot more practice from various other materials to reach my target score of 740 in my third attempt. The foundation set by e-GMAT in my early days did help me throughout my GMAT journey.

So in short for eGMAT:

"The content is great but what makes it even better is the way it is delivered. I highly recommend it to everyone looking to develop strong foundations for the verbal part of the test"

I subscribed to E-gmat Verbal online course and I must say that it was totally worth every penny.
The subject presentation is very enticing. Learning grammar rules is a piece of cake of cake using E-gmat's interactive modules.

If you are not an pro in English and looking for a course that provides you wholesome material, this is what you are looking for.

Later on. I purchased Quant online module as well. The Quant Online course is also good but not that necessary for Engineers or someone who's good in aptitude. But it definitely helps in practicing GMAT style questions.

I was not good at the verbal section. In my first attempt I scored 21 in verbal, which was really very bad. I got 49 in maths. But ended up in a low score because of verbal. In my first attempt I prepared mainly through Manhattan books and CATs. Manhattan SC is a really good book to understand the basics. But it is not good enough to score high marks.

While, preparing for 2nd attempt I purchased egmat. SC is really of gold standard. No doubt about it. It will teach you many concepts and make you feel very confident at the end of the course. I won't rate CR and RC in the same level of SC. But it is good to go. My verbal score improved from 21 to 29. I believe in RC no course can improve your score. It depends on your prior reading habits. But CR and SC any one can improve if they get good guidance. For SC I would rate it 9/10. For CR I would say 7/10. I would recommend this course specially to any non-english natives.

Taking the decision to quit your job of 14+ years and apply to B-school is risky. But once you take the risk, you need to make sure that your partners in the journey to MBA are dependable. And e-GMAT verbal and quant online courses are two really dependable partners who help you to cross that rickety GMAT bridge.

As for most non-native speakers, Sentence Correction was the greatest hurdle I had (or so I thought). I am an avid reader with more than 500 books in my personal library covering multiple topics. But still, I knew that relying on just that will not help me for sentence correction. I had attended the free SC and RC sessions by e-GMAT and did not think twice to order both the Quant and Verbal courses. And as per the plan suggested in e-GMAT, I started with SC.

To be honest, I had trouble with e-GMAT's SC process. Typically, I am a really fast test taker. 41 questions in 75 minutes does not pose a challenge to me, if it were not an adaptive test. In all the competitive exams I have faced, timing was never a problem for me. Following e-GMAT's SC process slowed me down. I started losing focus, and making a lot of mistakes. My score in scholaranium was pathetic for SC. But I had good scores for CR and RC, so I thought that may be enough.

Even though I knew SC was my weakness, I went ahead with the GMAT - to score a 630 with a V28. Given my demographic, I knew that was a low score. I ordered the ESR to see that while I was at the 83rd percentile on CR and 95th percentile on RC, my SC score was at the 5th percentile!

I had already booked my second test and had 22 days to improve my score. So basically, I had to figure a way to adapt the e-GMAT process. So, I decided to break it down. I started with subject verb agreement errors. If I could find the SV error or lack there of in a question, I would call it a win. Later I added other error types one by one till I was at least comfortable with 5 error types. It was the day of the second test by then.

The one mistake I did before the second test was to take 3 mock tests the day before. I scored 680, 690 and 700 in those mocks, but left me very tired for exam day. I was too tired going to the exam but still did feel that I improved well . But unfortunately, not enough. I got a 690 with a V35. A score just south of 700 was just not acceptable.

I took a whole month off after that. I started concentrating on my applications - but in the back of my mind I knew that this score was not enough. So after talking to my wife (2 GMAT attempts were all we budgeted for) I decided to do a third attempt - this time I planned it far off to the future. Got the ESR for the second GMAT- SC at 80th percentile, RC at 85th percentile and surprise, surprise - CR at 45th percentile!

Initially I could not figure out why such a low CR score. So I started taking more CR tests in scholaranium and started to pay more attention to my CR mistakes. What I majorly found was that for questions in topics I was aware of or those resonated well with me, I was developing some bias towards a view. For example, in a question regarding capitalists and socialists, my answer always had a bias to the socialists, even though it was not the right answer. So I had to figure out a way to suspend bias and be more open to other possibilities.

That was easier said than done. Combining that with being able to proceed with my natural speed of answering, the bias always won. I will not say it is something which I am able to control now - but it is better than before. For test number three, I made sure I was well rested the day before - I still did a mock anyways scoring a 710. The actual exam was better, scoring a 730 with a V40.

This whole effort was done in a period of 4 months from August to November 2017. In hindsight - I should have taken more time to prepare. Planning the prep in a more structured way, keeping a good error log and giving enough time to oneself to unlearn a few things that may hinder the GMAT exam is the best way to face the GMAT. e-GMAT provides the first - with a solid GMAT plan and excellent content. As a candidate we do need to find the discipline to learn and unlearn, so as to be prepared for the test.

I bought egmat last year but I didnt study. I got a job right after I decided to take a gmat test. Then I realized that I must have a master degree to leverage more opportunities. I started in November but my course was expired. Fortunately, I can extend my course by emailing egmats support.
I took few tests from OG books and l couldn't figure out what l was doing wrong with Verbal skill so I totally needed help in this section. Egmat showed me different ways to overcome complex sentence structure. I personally like the CR segment, egmat showed me logical ways to handle the CR pieces of information. The CR skills that I have learned impact not only my CR score but my RC score.

I paid over $1,500 for GMAT prep with Veritas Prep in San Diego and my GMAT score did not improve at all after two attempts which almost made me give up on my MBA ambition. I scored well below 600 (quant + verbal) after attending all classes with Veritas Prep which was a huge disappointment and embarrassment after all the materials I went through. I needed a new direction on how to nail the GMAT and get into a good business school.
My dear friend Raj referred me to e-GMAT and after attending some of the free webinars led by Rajat Sadana, I became very pleased, re-energized and was ready to study again for my GMAT to revive my MBA ambition again. Thanks to Raj as I have registered with e-GMAT and studying for the GMAT exams at a cost far less than Veritas Prep and other Institutions but gained more confidence and accuracy in answering level 700 questions.
Personally, e-GMAT has provided me the fundamental concepts I have been looking for through thoroughly prepared online videos covering both verbal (SC, CR and RC) and quant (Geometry, Number Properties, Algebra and Advance word problems) sections of the GMAT. The most important of all is the numerous quizzes and drills I take after learning the fundamental concepts of each section with I never had through Veritas Prep. This has increased my confidence in answering most of quant and verbal questions, accuracy and speed as well.
I can confidently pre-think assumptions very quickly and logically to answer critical reasoning questions with confidence and ease which I used to struggle with and now a non-issue for me.
Through the online videos and the weekend live sessions, I have seen my quant and verbal scores improved drastically and I am hoping to have a 720+ score on the real test as the preparation I have achieved through e-GMAT has equipped me with the tools and skillset needed to ace the real exams.
Thank you e-GMAT for all the efforts in putting together such efficient, wonderful, informational and educational online videos for all underlying GMAT concepts covering both the verbal and quant sections of the GMAT. Additionally, I love the weekend live sessions that empowers interactions from all students across the globe to solve questions. On a scale from 1-10, my score rating for e-GMAT is 10/10 and my favorite instructor is Payal Tandon but admire all the instructors for their hard-work and dedication in helping students improve their respective GMAT scores and getting into competitive business schools globally.
I hope my personal statement will motivate or encourage some of you out there who have lost hope in getting better GMAT scores. Please go e-GMAT and it will not disappoint you but will rather help you get better GMAT scores and getting into your dream business school.

I was looking for a course that could help me structure my approach towards verbal, especially sentence correction. After going through one of the blogs by E-GMAT on the gmatclub forum( I think it was on modifiers), I felt that it was exactly what I was looking for, a well organized and step-by-step approach to sentence correction which appealed to my mathematical mind ( Yes. I am an Indian Engineer).
The course covers all the basic concepts and helps to build a strong methodology which can help you shorten the time spent/question and improve accuracy.
You also get multiple tests on two different portals(25Q and 9V on GMATclub and 5 complete tests on 800score), which helps you gauge your progress more accurately.

Thanks to the course I improved my score from 710(Q50 V34) to 750(Q51 V40)

Totally recommended!!!!

PS- There are not many sample questions.So keep practicing on GMATclub forums there is sufficient material available here. The best approach would be to strengthen theory on E-GMAT and put it to test on gmatclub.

e-GMAT's verbal online course is an excellent resource for anyone who aspires to solidify his/her understanding of the GMAT's verbal section. What sets it apart is the depth of the content offered in the course. It's extensive and meticulously prepared.

My primary motivation to take up this course was to reinforce my foundations in sentence correction as that was the one part where I was struggling with the most. e-GMAT's verbal online course was instrumental in driving the point that a correct sentence should have only one correct meaning and that there should be no scope for ambiguity. Although I was familiar with this concept, the tutorials and questions provided in scholaranium helped me bring further clarity in an exam setting. The improvement I noticed in sentence correction also helped me improve Critical Reasoning.

In a nutshell, if you are a non-native English speaker and are struggling with fundamentals, this course is a life saver. They have provided an excellent collection of questions to hone your skills. The one area where I felt e-GMAT can improve is to provide quicker feedback on scholaranium although I can imagine this is an uphill task due to the popularity of the course.
