I scored a 720, which was a 240-point improvement from my first cold mock.

Here's the stuff eGMAT is doing very well:

1. Concepts are covered right from scratch, assuming the student doesn't know anything about anything. That's a good thing because I used to make a lot of conceptual mistakes in the quant section and an overview helped me iron those out.

2. The website is flawless. Everything is easy to find and access, subsections are divided in a logical manner, and I don't remember the portal malfunctioning even once in 6 months.

3. There are a lot of people involved in the doubt-clearing process. Every question on the portal has a solution, and there are thousands of questions. Doubts are cleared within 12-24 hours and are on-point most of the time.

4. The cementing process is much more important than it sounds if you're stuck in a subsection and can't seem to get better even after a lot of practice.

5. Verbal preparation is tremendous, especially when you actually follow what they say. The 'meaning-based approach' that eGMAT follows is by far the best way to handle CR questions with 90%+ accuracy.

6. The feedback process is fast and helpful. An analytics engine tracks every single question you've attempted on the portal and assesses your accuracy for you. When you want to find out where you went wrong, not only can you search for subsection errors (SC, CR, ALG), but also subtopic errors (modifier, assumption).

7. The Last Mile Push Program is a godsend for the last few weeks before the final day. If you get selected for it (or buy the thing), you get an expert who accurately analyses where you can improve and creates an action plan for you to follow. Every day.

8. There's a one-month extension option too, which is great for all of us who are bad at managing time :)

There's also some room for improvement.

1. Scholaranium questions could be more accurate, difficulty-wise. I've found that OG questions are a lot easier, especially on a high difficulty level, than the ones on Scholaranium, although this could be by design. I found that I was consistently scoring higher on OG questions than on Scholaranium for both sections.

Overall, I think eGMAT is definitely worth a shot.

I started my GMAT journey back in 2019 on my own. With the help of official Guide, GMAT club and Veritas mock test, I was able to score 710 on my first attempt. It gave me the confidence that I could score higher with a little extra effort. But after 2 more attempts in 2020 (720 and 710 again), I found myself unable to break the 720 barrier. My 2 biggest problems were: 1) Lack of speed in verbal 2) Consistency in Quant.That's when I decided I needed professional help and I enrolled with e-gmat. E-gmat monitors their student performances with such depth that within the first few weeks,Payal (Co-founder) reached out to assign a mentor (Rashmi) to me. Even though quant was not my weak area, Rashmi advised me to go over the entire Quant course once. While I had my apprehensions, thankfully I trusted the process. As expected, I consistently started scoring 51/51 in all my subsequent mocks/ practice tests.However, the real game changers for me were the test readiness practice tests and customised practice test. It helped me get over the timing issue in verbal. My verbal score shot up and I was much more confident this time.A comprehensive analysis of every practice test helped me identify and iron out a lot of my weaknesses very easily. With a 730, I only wish I had taken up e-gmat sooner. Would highly recommend.

I am very happy with my result and I am thankful to e-GMAT for helping me achieve this result without spending too much time.
When I decided to study for GMAT, I considered different options such as self-study using books and GMAT Club resources, taking different online courses and hiring a private tutor (this option was too expensive for me). There was overwhelmingly large quantity of resources available, and I had limited time for the preparation, as I work full-time. I heard about e-GMAT from a friend of my friend and decided to check it out. I used free trial and decided to purchase the course because of two reasons: 1) the course has structure which I knew would save me time by helping me focus on relevant areas and 2) I liked how the concepts were explained for each section and that each concept was followed by tests.
I started studying for GMAT in January 2022 and had to stop after two weeks because I was busy at work. I continued my preparation from May and studied for about 10 – 12 hours a week using e-GMAT for four months. e-GMAT helped me a lot with both quant and verbal.
For quant, I needed to remember math concepts that I learned at school and I needed to learn relevant terminology, as I had studied math in my native language at school. Watching e-GMAT’s concept videos was very helpful for me to refresh my knowledge and learn some techniques that school has failed to teach me. After concept videos, e-GMAT offers questions to solve, starting with easy and going to very hard. Video or written solutions are offered for each question. This structure helped me master the skills to solve complicated GMAT questions in time. One of the best skills I developed was solving data sufficiency questions without doing full calculations. e-GMAT also offers cementing process, which is very important for developing confidence in one’s abilities and cementing the skills.
As for verbal, I was good at reading comprehension from the start (I read non-fiction literature in English), however I struggled with critical reasoning and sentence correction initially (I got v31 on GMAT Club’s verbal mock before doing e-GMAT’s sentence correction module). I did those sections on e-GMAT and got v45 on exam as a result (I would have gotten higher mark if I had managed time better). e-GMAT teaches both concepts and the process to apply knowledge in such manner that after I completed the course I was able to easily solve most difficult questions.
I highly recommend e-GMAT course, it is very helpful even if you are starting GMAT preparation from scratch and it is quite inexpensive. I recommend that if you take the course, you follow their instructions and not skip concept videos or cementing part.
p.s. I have not indicated score improvement, as I had not taken mock exam before I began studying on e-GMAT

I started with my GMAT Journey in May of 2022. I started my preparation by purchasing the eGMAT subscription and for my entire prep I had only and only one source: eGMAT. I completed my GMAT journey in August and few data points of my GMAT prep journey are as follows:
1. Score Improvement
(a) First mock (590) used to create PSP to 700 (Q49, V36)
2. Verbal Prep
a) Completed MC, SC, CR, and RC to bridge certain gaps.( SC summarised notes prepared)
b). Solved 852 verbal questions during cementing and test readiness phases
c) Followed the cementing process and only moved to the next stage on meeting the requisite threshold (Medium level questions- 70% and Hard level questions- 55%)

3. Quant Prep
a) Utilized PACE engine to make Quant preparation efficient, learning only what I was required to learn.( Module wise summarised notes prepared)
b). Solved 900 questions in Quant in Cementing and Test Readiness phases

I started off my verbal prep with Sentence Correction and was not able to meet the threshold level in the cementing quizzes and therefore had to do the entire SC module again. After SC, I completed the CR and RC module and was able to complete the cementing stage with requisite thresholds. Finally I went on to Quant and in the eGMAT Quant every sub topic has a diagnostic test at the very beginning to guide students with different level of abilities- if I was strong in Geometry, the AI driven software would guide me in a way that I only had to study limited content. This helped me save time in my preparation and focus only on my weak areas and keep working towards improvement. After completing every QUANT sub module, I would undergo the process of cementing to ensure that I hit my target abilities in each subsection. Taking these quizzes would enable me to deal with GMAT like questions and strengthen my process abilities. Every eGMAT question provides the students with forum posts related to the doubts and issues faced by the other students. This would allow me to resolve my doubts and also strengthen my conceptual understanding. I could also post fresh doubts that would get resolved within 24 hours by the egmat team. The mentors for Verbal- including Harsha, Kanupriya, Stacey and Shraddha would provide excellent support on the forum. On the quant side also we had Bikramjit, Aditi and Shweta who would provide detailed solutions to each problem. These interactions with the subject matter experts were very helpful for me to increase my understanding of dynamics of GMAT test like problems.


Coming to the test readiness stage- I was assigned a mentor to guide me through my preparation – Abha Mohan The test readiness phase is one of the most important stages of preparation and having Abha’s guidance at every step of the way helped me structure my improvement plan and work on my weak areas after doing a detailed analysis of my Scholaranium account my mentor told me to revisit few modules in SC and Number properties and Word problems. Post my test readiness quizzes I was told to take mocks with a gap of 3 to 4 days between two successive mocks and Abha would help me put together an improvement plan after every mock so that I could work before my next mock. I scored a 660 on my first mock and was completely unhappy with my performance but Abha guided me and helped me with a improvement plan and also did a thorough video analysis of my mock. I scored a 700 and 710 in my next two mocks. However, I scored a 670 on my first official test. I became extremely sad because of the drop in my score but Abha guided me and helped me work on a small improvement plan and in the last 2 days of my preparation guided me with the final day test plan. Her support really helped me regain my confidence and I was able to ensure that I remain calm enough to make it to the exam day. To regain my confidence, Abha suggested that I take a few custom quizzes and I was able to regain some level of calm and composure upon seeing my scores in these custom quizzes. Finally, I scored a 700 in my second attempt with a Q49 and V36 split. I would highly recommend the e GMAT subscription to all those who are looking for a structured approach for their GMAT preparation

When I decided to take the GMAT, I knew that I needed to put significant effort in verbal, and needed to remove the rustiness in quant. With these requirements clear in my head, I knew that I needed a course which enabled base building, as well as allowed targeted preparation. This is where e-GMAT perfectly fit the bill. It's detailed breakdown of course structure enabled me to personalize my approach where required. Further, its teaching methodology of starting from absolute scratch and steadily increasing the difficulty level is exactly what was needed to build confidence and make sure that the concepts are absorbed properly. Lastly, it's tools and techniques such as pre-thinking, deep analysis of question stem and each answer choice, and the extensiveness of scholaranium (e-GMAT's question bank) were the core advantages of this course. All in all, e-GMAT gave me a study plan, solving my headache of creating a plan of my own, and all I had to do was to execute it diligently.

I cannot thank Rida at e-GMAT enough for the personalized study plan leading up to my GMAT. This self-paced platform helped me improve my score by 100 points. Both the verbal quant courses helped me solidify my foundational skills in order to gain confidence in Medium and Hard level questions. Their cementing process and analytical approach to practice exams immensely trained me for the actual test day. It took me about a year to complete the GMAT, but if you are diligent and focused for three months, you will definitely succeed and hit your target score! Overall, I would highly recommend this course for anyone looking to improve their GMAT score.

Thank you E-GMAT, I could improve my score from 670(Q47, V35) to 710(Q50, V36) with one month of diligent preparation. The amazing Analytics of the E-GMAT course facilitated my journey.

For my previous attempt, I thought that self-study using OGs would suffice. However, I could not cross the 700 hurdle. With a very hectic full-time job, I understood that I needed to tackle my next GMAT attempt in a very focused and efficient manner. I saw the E-GMAT reviews on GmatClub and subscribed to E-GMAT online course for my journey ahead.

My next phase of preparation with E-GMAT started in June 2022. The e-GMAT course is very comprehensive. It's Quant and Verbal sections cover all that is required to successfully ace the GMAT exam. Along with the course, I also received free subscription to GMATCLUB tests.
E-GMAT online course + GMATCLUB tests = The Winning Formula.

From my previous attempt, I understood that Number Properties, Algebra, and Geometry were my weak areas. Since I was time constrained, I decided to strategically work only on those areas. I took cementing and timed quizzes. I practiced from their Scholaranium and improved my ability to score Q50 on the actual test.

E-GMAT Verbal section is very comprehensive. SC Module was extremely resourceful. The meaning-based approach helped me tackle SC questions in the right way. SC Practice and Application questions coupled with cementing and sectional quizzes helped me improve my accuracy in SC from 70 to 90 percentile. I think the E-GMAT SC course is enough to improve one’s accuracy to 90+ percentile.

My E-GMAT SIGma-X mock scores were very similar to my actual GMAT score. I scored 720 in two of their mocks just days before the actual exam.

Due to paucity of time, I could not utilize E-GMAT CR and RC courses. However, I will utilize them for my next attempt to break the GMAT 750 barrier.

I want to thank E-GMAT once again for helping me in my GMAT journey.

Happy Learning!

I started my journey of GMAT with official guidebooks and online free material. I studied for three months and gave my 1st attempt. To my surprise, I scored just 560 on GMAT with very less verbal score. It was at that time that I understood the need for a study platform to prepare systematically for GMAT. I did my research on GMAT club for few days and selected e-GMAT as the best choice to improve my score.
I found the verbal course very attractive and apt for solving sentence correction question in systematic approach. In my opinion, understanding the meaning of the sentence was the key to solve all sentence correction questions. I was surprised to see that rather than looking for single mistake in given sentence and eliminating the option, analyzing complete sentence, and then eliminating other options more helpful. Initially, it was time consuming, but after solving practice quizzes in Scholaranium, I was confident to solve difficult questions. Technics such as prethinking in critical reasoning, getting immersed in reading comprehension helped me a lot to achieve decent score in verbal section.
Quants sections was good in terms of application and practice quiz. I learned how to solve difficult questions without consuming too much time.
I just wished that I would have solved more questions and sigma-X mocks available on Scholaranium in e-GMAT.
Thank you e-GMAT !!

I recently used the e-gmat platform to prepare myself for the GMAT test. It was an absolutely positive experience and I am tremendously grateful for all the help they provided.

E-gmat’s platform is a one-stop shop for all your GMAT needs. It contains a dedicated section for the verbal and quant parts of the exam, and even provides support for integrated reasoning section. Ii was super easy to use and I was able to focus all my needs in just one place. The only outside material I used was the official GMAT essays as additional preparation as I approached my exam date.

One of the things I found most convenient about e-gmat is that it gives you a personalized study plan. When I set out to start studying, I realized that there was a lot of information available on the internet, books, courses and it became a bit overwhelming the amount of options and methods I found. With e-gmat I didn't have to worry about anything at all. The platform provides a clear method that guides you step by step on how to approach your study session. It helps you define when to study what topic and in which way. The fact that they gave me a personalized study plan was an absolute relief, and it reduced many hours of preparation that I was able to put to better use by studying.

For the verbal section, e-gmat was able to provide a very clear and structured method for addressing the questions. Although I had a strong performance in verbal from the beginning, initially I was answering the questions purely by intuition, which not only resulted in mistakes, but also made me feel insecure and nervous. Thanks to e-gmat, I was able to apply a structured thought process that helped me become much more precise in my answers and gain confidence. In addition, given the personalized study plan, I was able to focus on those areas that were the most difficult for me, and quickly review those areas where I felt more comfortable.

In the quant section, e-gmat provides an incredible tool called PACE which diagnoses your knowledge of concepts and then gives you specific material to fill in the gaps. The tool worked wonderfully and helped me understand concepts in depth, thus avoiding having to resort to memory during a stressful situation like the GMAT exam. In addition, the number of questions offered in the database is so large that it allows you to practice constantly. At the end of a few weeks of focused practice, you can easily identify the types of question you will encounter during the GMAT test, leaving little room for surprises.

In addition to the videos and extensive question bank available, I think what I valued most about e-gmat was the study method provided, which helps you feel super confident during the test. They support you with an impressive number of taylor-made quizzes and cementing quizzes so you can make sure you absorb the concepts properly. In addition, they provide tools for the process of reviewing incorrect or time-consuming questions, which positively impacts your performance.

After only 2-3 months using the platform conscientiously, I managed to go from a score of 640 in my first mock test to a 770 in the official exam. I am super grateful for all the tools provided and absolutely recommend e-gmat!

I started my GMAT prep last year and like a lot of engineers quickly realized that although my quant skills were good enough, I needed some serious help in the verbal section. Multiple close contacts recommended eGMAT to learn and strengthen verbal concepts and I can safely say that it was the right decision.
The course takes you through the basics to the advanced level and at every step challenges you with quizzes and applications. The designed method to utilize the course is the one thing I would recommend everyone to follow and also read up on the explanations given for each answer whether you are right or wrong, especially in the Application files.
The pre-thinking process for CR and RC helped me to stay objective about the question and not get swayed by preconceived notions. For SC, cementing quizzes played a critical role in building up my thinking when there is no context provided – you do not know whether the question is from the verbs or modifiers module.
The mocks are a little towards the difficult end which I felt was good as they help you time better for the actual test. The mix of questions in the mocks and quizzes helps one better time their performance which becomes essential in the later stages of the prep.
Overall, I would highly recommend the eGMAT course as it strongly builds your basics quite well, provides ample data so you can understand where you are lacking, and has an ample number of quizzes and mocks to practice in that final stretch
