I have been using the verbal live prep and it has been the best live prep course that i have ever studied and it has improved my verbal skills a lot .I learned though the course makes SC seem more easier task to handle, and the important thing is their approach gives me confidence to tackle SC, I just go step by step in a structured many get to the correct answer choice. My accuracy now is >80%, I'm quite happy. If I want to boost my accuracy to about 90%, I'd know where to focus my time, thanks to their Scholarinium, a great tool to know where your strengths, your weaknesses, your takt time (you should definitely see their free strategy recording on this term). So you'll know you can confidently skips some questions and still get a high score.

I had score 540 on my GMAT by self study but I wasn't sure if I will be able to improve further by self study. So I took up eGMAT Quant Live course and I got 20 point jump in Verbal in my score in a matter of 28 days. I wish I had taken the course earlier. If I had, I would have scored more than 700 easily.
I would recommend this Quant course to each and everyone who is struggling to score well on the GMAT just because his/her Quant is weak. e-GMAT Quant Live course helped me a lot as I could take it on my own pace as I could get the recording of each and every session.

After getting an experience of 3+ years in a manufacturing sector right out of IIT Madras, I was hoping to get into some B schools to help me shape my career. The most logical step for me was GMAT. However, the first time, I tried it, I got a score of 650. This de-motivated me and I was not so sure, as to where I was going wrong. Several thoughts came to my mind, and I finally decided to join a course to analyse my mistakes.

After analyzing many courses, I signed up for E-Gmat, verbal live prep. The first few classes filled me up with excitement. I could clearly see that my approach towards solving problems earlier was severely flawed.

In just about a month's time, I was solving SC questions like a professional, I realized that this part of GMAT, which usually took me the longest, was something that was now actually saving time. CR and SC also improved drastically. More than anything, the fear of GMAT was completely gone. I enjoyed studying and felt more confident. I got a score of 710 (V37, Q49) in my second time and an admission in many good B schools such as ISB, Olin, Kelley and Ivey Richards. Had I focused more on quant I would have got a little more, but e-gmat was a savior and helped me get an extremely unexpected verbal score.

Course Work:
The live sessions are exhilarating, and the interactions with the instructor are life like. The energy felt during the course carries through out the week and helps in preparing better. Approach towards SC is path breaking. This dreaded part of GMAT is solved so easily through E-GMAT that at the end of the day, one feels that there is no reason to fear from it at all.

CR and RC also strengthened like never before. I felt very amazing, when I understood the basic reasons behind the questions in OG, when I listened to their explanations. It molded my thoughts and helped me in forming a fresh approach towards a problem.

There are also many questions in the e-gmat, which are designed specifically to enhance one's strengths in the areas, where we feel weak. The doubts are answered very nicely and the polls used in live prep is an extremely useful tool to evaluate one's progress among our peers.

During the course itself, seeing the questions asked by our peers, we can evaluate our understanding and be also aware that we are doing above average.

Software for Live Courses
I had earlier taken some online classes for various reasons. NPTEL was used in IIT earlier. But most of these online courses were a monologue and we could not express ourselves rightly , like that in a class. Here the feel was extremely different. I felt like sitting in a class, moreover, I was not un comfortable to ask questions. It was scheduled at a time, when I was always free and could give it full attention. I therefore attended all classes.

Response to emails:
I don't know how they do it, but they respond to all emails within 12 hours. It is amazing. I was extremely happy with their customer service and appreciate it a lot.

At last, I would say that e-gmat thought me how to think. It will take me beyond GMAT exam alone and would help me in general. I strongly recommend taking this course as it won't be just learning but will be 'fun' learning.

I had registered for the course a few months ago but had little time to study due to work constraints. I finally found two weeks of freedom to concentrate and prepare properly for the GMAT. I found myself constantly in the V35 area. With little time left having covered Maths the first week, I went through an intense study prep by first watching the SC free webinar which was very useful for me in approaching each SC question and made me ponder further on the egmat verbal prep. I had always picked out answers based on what sounded right but failed to ignore the most important aspect - Meaning. e-Gmat course was the first among many to revise my strategy in this regard having taken gmat last year. The three step approach was critical in edging me towards the 90%+ accuracy. I quickly learnt a technique or strategy for attacking each type of question. The Reading comprehension package was great for dissecting any type of passage para-graph by para-graph looking our for transition verbs and breaking down jargons. I was more confident after going through the course

How I found e-gmat Verbal Live
As i researched for programs, I noticed that e-gmat had a lot of good reviews (especially worth the bucks) from mostly non-native English speakers. and it costs about 199 dolls for the English package. It is definitly worth it. If you want to get a feel before purchasing, please subscribe to the free webinar for SC, RC and CR to see for yourself. I am sure you would tread the same path :-). The live sessions especially on SC and critical reasoning was absolutely fantastic. Did pretty much all the work for me than all the 100+ page guide I had read much earlier before getting bogged down and taking a break

E-gmat enabled me to cover all basis. The live verbal sessions along with brilliant techniques to solve questions faster and with greater accuracy was core to what made me improve my score. It was highly interactive and the instructor cared about the audience progress. Its essential to master the strategies and follow them completely in order to score high on verbal.

The 3 step process worked wonders for me. The video format of the course is very effective, highly interactive and provides in depth knowledge of all the things you need to master SC. The course is organized and has a nice flow which helps you get the maximum learning out of it. I would strongly strongly recommend this to anyone. I have spread the word to friends and will continue to spread. Within a week of study for english, I was able to obtain a V39. If I decide to retake for a higher score, I would go in on only eGmat Verbal Live Prep for english, spend a bit more time too. Wish fellow e-Gmatters the best :-)

Dear Fellow GMAT Test takers,

I, Arun Kumar took GMAT on Sep 10th,2016 and scored 720. Let me explain the Pros and Cons of E-GMAT and how it helped me score a 720.

I am a non- native English speaker and took GMAT twice. In my first attempt, I scored 650 ( Q 46, V34) and in my second attempt scored 720 ( Q49, V 38). I can definitely say E-GMAT was pivotal in improving my score. In the very first mock test that I took, I scored 560. I remember scoring V 26 in that mock test.

This shattered my confidence of ever crossing the 700 barrier. I did not give up hope and started with MGMAT material. MGMAT material is the absolute best to refresh your Quant skills, but their SC book was too much for me to absorb and I was unable to apply the same during the test.

I use to go over the MGMAT SC book over and over again. Even though, I understood the concepts, I was unable to apply the same in timed GMAT mock tests. It just frustrated me and made me feel incompetent. I knew that I have hit a road block and had to figure out an alternative path.

I was planning on taking an In class training, but it was an expensive option and did not fit my work schedule. This is when I researched my options and found E-GMAT online live prep program.

The program, which is in video format, was easy to assimilate and is organized based on weight-age of topics too. I was amazed to see how I can understand the core concepts with ease and apply the same during my mocks.

If you are struggling with SC then E-GMAT will help you nail it for sure. SC is unique and many questions can be solved by pattern recognition. However, This takes time and effort. You do need a structured approach in which you understand the grammar rules and common error types. E-GMAT helps you achieve this. I would definitely recommend you take the ability quiz at the beginning of each section and practice on their quizzes as they help you not only identify your weak areas but also analyze what made you choose the wrong answer.

Once you understand these two aspects your mind can see a pattern. When you are taking the test you become like MATRIX-NEO and can see the traps ahead of you.

I am naturally good at CR, yet I used Aristotle CR guide to bolster my CR preparation. RC was the silent killer, which messed up my score greatly. I used E-GMAT RC videos and Chinese RC burn to bolster my process and practiced OG questions countless times to improve on speed and accuracy.

E-GMAT PROS:

1) Video based learning.
2) Prompt response on questions from trainers.
3) Pricing and you get GMAT club tests free. This sealed the deal for me.
4) Ability Quizzes and analysis.
5) Quiz questions closely resemble the GMAT test, but I have seen few odd balls.
6) In All major concept videos such as parallelism, -ing modifier, you can review the crux of the topic without the need to watch the entire video again.
7) You have a one week trial period, I believe, during which you can try the program and check if it suits your learning style.
8) Commitment of trainers. Payal, Shraddha and many other trainers truly want to see you succeed and show commitment.

CONS:
1) CR and RC training videos can be improved. If E-GMAT can make their CR and RC sections as good as their SC section is , then they will surely dominate the GMAT training program world.

I have not used their Quant training program, so I cannot comment on it.

In short, If you are struggling with SC,CR and RC then definitely E_GMAT will help you succeed. However, E-GMAT is not a magic pill. The course will help you 60%, but you need to put in 50 % ( 110%) to slay GMAT.

I will be writing a note on how I scored 720 in which I will talk about what GMAT actually tests. The soft skills that I believe are critical for your success.

I am working on my application now. Once I am done with the same, you can expect to read my story. Till then work hard and be focused my friends.

All the best!!!.

Regards,
Arun

E-gmat verbal, I would say my savior ..I was literally struggling to remember the rules in the Manhattan SC book ...and the less i talk about my application of those rules in official question, the better it is...After about 3-4 weeks of studying Manhattan SC I was not getting even 50% of the question correct ...then from somewhere I got this link for free webinar for SC ..and trust me within half an hour of the webinar I made my decision to join verbal live prep from e-gmat ..but then the usual skepticism started so I waited to attend another free session which was 15 days from then ...and finally made my decision to join ...
If I regret anything about my preparation, it is those 15 days I wasted in thinking about making the decision..which could have well made a difference of another 20 points atleast to my score...

I took the online verbal course by eGMAT and I must say that I was very impressed by the way the topics were covered. The matter is quite relevant to the pattern and also the questions and quizzes included were of great help in improving the GMAT score. I would recommend E-GMAT verbal prep to anyone preparing for GMAT. The Scholoranium which comes free with egmat Verbal courses is a beast in itself. A humongous collection of questions & their deep analysis will take you further in your gmat prep. The analytics it provides for the questions attempted is also world class. Often the students have to prepare their own error logs using Excel and what not. This tool automates a lot of that and gives you insights which you can utilize to improve your performance in areas where you are not performing well.
Overall, its a great practice tool to further refine your gmat verbal prep. You yourself will see the results after you have been halfway through the questions database as the concepts covered and tested are thorough and comprehensive.
For few very tough questions, the explanation might be confusing but don't get disheartened if you get them wrong, focus more on enhancing your learning with each attempt rather than trying to get everything right all the time.
If you have taken some other course, you can also buy this separately for which I highly recommend to do so.

I highly recommend the e-GMAT Quant Live Prep course to anyone who feels comfortable in the quantitative section but still don't manage to reach Q49-51 score. The course stresses on the importance of little details that make the difference during the exam or practice questions. It helps you how to face complex questions under time pressure circumstances.

Its practice exercises are a golden mine and you must squeeze all the key takeaways that each of those exercises puts forward.

Now I feel in a great shape to score Q49+ thanks to the great material offered by e-GMAT. Hopefully I will be able to share a new success story with all of you very soon. Fingers crossed

e-GMAT Verbal Live Prep course has been really helpful to me for my GMAT exam preparations. When I started my preparations for the exam, I was confident and also familiar with the exam format but, I was unable to get decent score in the tests. Upon much analysis, I realized there was a need to build upon basic concepts of Verbal. Verbal Live Prep course concept files are very precise and there is an attention to detail. The application files further builds up on the process of leveraging the concepts and applying them successfully. Live sessions helps in understanding and devising the correct approach to solve questions. The course in itself is a complete package for GMAT verbal preparations.
