Strengths:

1. The amount of detail in the course. This course alone is sufficient to cover all concepts needed to ace the exam
2. The number of problems available for practice
3. Similarity of questions to the real GMAT

The aspect of the course I really love is the amount of detail present in the course. If you can be patient ( Which you really need for GMAT ) and take the time to understand the processes and practices put in place this course is an absolute banger! It hits all the required aspects in Verbal, Quant and DI. The questions on the Scholaranium might feel they are slightly harder than the ones in the GMAT official book but trust me, once you get the hang of the principles mentioned in the course they will really help you a lot when actually applying the concepts on the GMAT and it will feel like a breeze. The number of questions you can practice on to apply the concepts you learn is insane. So if you take the time and mindfully practice, I can guarantee that it will improve your score a lot!

The platform is also simple to use and pretty straightforward. They walk you through the learning stages - like Cementing and Test Readiness so you are 100% sure that you know the concept, learnt the concept and can apply the concept. They walk you through prethinking for CR, reading strategies in Verbal, applying process skills in Quant and owning the dataset in DI, all of which I really found helpful in my GMAT exam.

I was part of the LMP program ( Last Mile Push Program ) where you are paired with a mentor who can motivate you, guide you on where you should be focusing your time and skills on and even help you in areas you are weak. This really pushed me when I was feeling down or couldn't gather enough motivation to finish my tasks.

Overall Tips if you plan on choosing the course:
1. Be Patient and follow through the course. This isn't a small course by any means. It is meant to take you to 99 percentile. And contrary to the saying "Good things don't come in small packages"

2. Keep yourself motivated throughout the course. They have a system where if you get the questions right in the pre test of a concept, you are advised on what concepts you can skip. Take it up as a challenge and try to do your best and gamify your experience so it's interesting

3. If there is anyone you can rely on to push you to get that score, ( sometimes we all need that extra push ) don't be shy to reach out and ask the e-GMAT team for help. They will try and help you as much as they can.

4. The course is slightly expensive. So don't fall off the track. Keep the momentum going and try and complete the course within 4 months if possible.

All the best!

The DI course modules can get better and more aligned with actual OG questions.

I started my GMAT preparation in January 2024. On a friend's advice, I registered myself for the egamt's Online 360 course. Before starting the course, I attempted a full length egmat mock and scored 425. Time management was the biggest concern for me. I realized I wasn't ready for this exam and needed a structured approach for my preparations.

I started doing all the module courses to get hold of the concepts in quant and verbal. I was doing decently well in the module tests and kept moving ahead in the course. In one of the module tests when my score was low, I decided to write a mail to egmat support to have a look, review my preparations and provide some feedback. Honestly speaking I didn't have many expectations from an online portal providing any sort of mentorship but decided to seek help just for the sake of it.

To my surprise, the reply that I received was very assuring and motivating. Hereon, egmat mentor Ms Rashmi Vaidya became a dedicated virtual mentor for me for the following months of my preparations. I moved places and relocated 3 times between January and April. This combined with the unpredictable nature of workload at a startup I would have weeks when I couldn't study even for an hour. But Rashmi and sometimes other mentors who would write to me would still be very patient and supportive.

By April 15 I had finally settled at one location and decided to study regularly aiming to take the exam around the end of June. During this time Rashmi gave me a reality check. Knowing concepts well just by covering the module courses was only 1/3rd of the preparations done for GMAT. She introduced me to the egmat idea of ‘cementing’ and ‘test readiness’ stages post finishing the online modules. The true importance of this I realized post my first attempt.

I completed all three stages for quant, did it partially for verbal and could not finish even the module courses for DI by end of June. I had fixed the exam date as 11th July. So, by end June I started giving official mocks and following were my scores

Mock 1 – 645 Q-84, V-80, DI-81.

Mock 2 – 595 Q-84, V-79, DI-76.

Mock 3 – 675 Q-86, V-83, DI-81

egmat mock - 595

I was having serious issues with time management in both verbal and DI. Invariably having to guess 5-6 questions in the end for both these sections in each mock. This was a result of not doing cementing and test readiness for those two sections.

The final exam was no different, I had time management issues in both verbal and DI. Guessed last 4 answers in verbal and 6/7 answers in DI.

Final exam score: 655 Q-87, V-80, DI-80.

I know the score isn’t exceptional, but it isn’t bad either. I can’t thank Rashmi enough for guiding me through this journey and being so patient with the erratic nature of my possible study schedules.
I must say if you take this online course and actually diligently complete all three stages of preparation on egmat portal, with the required score metrics, no force can stop you from getting an exceptionally high score at GMAT focus edition.

Strengths:

* Initial consultation: In one call, by reviewing my latest score result in detail, my coach helped me identify exactly the areas in which I needed to improve. This allowed me to use my time efficiently
* Methodology: The team knows exactly how to ace each section and sub-section. By learning and following their metholodogy, I was able to save time and gain confidence very fast.
* Content: e-gmat has extensive resources on each sub-section, including on Data Insights - which is rare on the market, with most other platforms "recycling" old contents from IR.
* Coaching: It was empowering to have a coach who set clear goals and was following up how I was doing. I did this as part of the Last Mile Push Program.

Would make the product better:

None, just be ready to dedicate time to your learning.

Super grateful - thank you e-gmat and Rida in particular!

I totally recommend e-gmat to anyone who wants to improve their score with methodology and confidence.

After being stuck at a GMAT score of 645 despite months of self-study, I decided to try e-GMAT due to its compelling reviews and lower cost.

My coach, Rida, created a detailed study plan that focused on my weak areas and included accuracy goals for each section, which significantly improved my understanding and performance. She followed up regularly to check where I was at and whether I had questions. In parallel, I used their platform Scholaranium for practicing Medium and Hard questions and maintaining an error log (Excel file to reflect on my mistakes) were crucial in refining my skills and boosting my confidence. Prior to e-gmat, I studied alone for 3 months and I was not really able to learn on my mistakes.

e-GMAT’s structured approach and consistent practice helped me break through the 645 barrier and achieve a GMAT score of 685. On Verbal, they taught me to read actively, which aced my accuracy and time needed. On DI, they taught me to process thoroughly the dataset, which boosted my accuracy as well.

Increase the number of full length mock tests

eGMAT's online 360 course starts with the creation of an extensive study plan which helps outline a schedule for preparation - this I think, is a very crucial step. Besides the theory lessons, they also have numerous practice questions, detailed solutions with expert assistance to help with doubts (and also a lot of people who've had similar questions, answered, in the past, available to view), the PACE AI tool helps optimise prep time with classes and five high-quality, single attempt mocks. The fact that it is customisable makes it ideal for working professionals. The course introduces concept of cementing and strategies to achieve it, which are very effective.

Strengths:

- Quality of course content in terms of the depth of subject covered.
- Continuous support from eGMAT for any test prep problems.
- Quick and efficient clarification of doubts.
- Interactive Video Lessons of great quality.
- Regular webinars and strategy sessions to strengthen core concepts.
- Last Mile Push (LMP) program : A strategy expert assigned to the aspirant who guides the aspirant in every step of the way.

Would make the product better:

My journey from 555 to 685 in GMAT Focus:

I have started my GMAT journey in April 2024 by taking a Sigma-X mock test from eGMAT. I scored a 555, and understood that I need to strengthen my basics, especially in Verbal and Data Insights sections. I chose eGMAT based on a plethora of positive reviews by GMAT achievers, and I'm happy that my choice was apt.

The first and foremost thing I loved about eGMAT was a clear and personalized study plan, having which I fel confident about the preparation at the beginning.

I started with Verbal section, where the course has worked wonders for me. The clarity it gave on the concepts tested, and the well laid out methodologies for solving CR and RC questions were really helpful. Overall, it laid an excellent foundation on which I built my verbal ability.

Quant has always been a strong area for me, as I have scored 100% in Quantitative Aptitude even in my GATE-2019 examination. However, the depth of concept covered in eGMAT quant is unmatched in all sub sections.

Data Insights is one area where I struggled the most initially. But the simplified manner in which core concepts of graphical analysis, table analysis and multi source reasoning are presented in the course have made my life easier.

Cementing, as the name suggests, is a crucial building block of GMAT ability, and it played a pivotal role in my journey too.

Last but not the least, the Last Mile Push program, where we are assigned a dedicated strategy expert cum mentor is absolutely game changing. Akash and Abha, my mentors, supported me in every step of the way and helped me set accurate goals. Abha's analysis of my mock exams has helped me strategize the real exam in an efficient way.

Overall, eGMAT stands out in many ways and I recommend the course to serious aspirants looking for significant score boost.

Would make the product better:

I feel the DI section is relatively new and hence for many MSR questions I found the performance metrics to be flawed: as in, a too hard question is marked as easy and also the median time taken to answer those looks flawed. This is only for the MSR part.
For verbal, initially I used to feel that your questions are hard but having taken official mock tests and the exam I now feel that it isn't hard enough because I faced some pretty scary questions in the main test.
I think a VERY HARD rating for certain quant questions help us not worry a lot when we miss a relatively hard question. So egmat must mark few of the hardest questions as such.

In the age of Artificial Intelligence it feels really nice to be catered by Human Intelligence. Egmat does exactly that. In my previous attempts I had tried things my own way with a subscription of a particularly famous organization. But it lacked the interactive aspect that is a usp for egamt.
All concepts are explained in videos. Their algorithm is carefully designed to gauge your skills and adapt with that.
The PACE feature allows you to skip skills which you are already confident in. But it feels like the olden days as if a coach is there to guide you. I have, on occasions not liked some explanations and replied to them and they have promptly replied and a proper argument led to a rectification of the issue.
Too many organizations have claimed to not use any 'gimmicks' or quick tricks to ace the exam. I can attest personally that egmat, (sometimes a bit annoyingly) always avoids quick fixes. This forces you to adopt the conceptual clarity and as they like to call it 'own the dataset!'
Following the basic principles of learning and no quick tricks the curriculum induced in me a regular habit of the pre-thinking and falsification techniques. I was able to handle complicated CR questions i.e. rejecting the right options for the right reasons and narrowing down the best option.
One ability that always felt impossible for me was completing the first RC question within 3.5 minutes. But egmat's resources allowed me to handle the same with ease.
They have a strongly crafted set of resources for the DI section which I felt was an apt reflection of the official test.
It goes without saying that the quant section is as good as expected.
If their methodical approach of learning, cementing and test readiness is adopted there is no reason why one can't ace the gmat.

Strengths:

- Versitality of question bank
- Concept explanations

I had a great experience with e-GMAT during my GMAT preparation. The course materials were comprehensive and well-structured, which made it easier to grasp even the most challenging concepts. I was facing a lot of issues with verbal, so I opted for a full access course from E-GMAT and used their verbal tutorials to largely work on RC (it was very helpful for me).
The platform’s adaptive learning approach helped me focus on my weaker areas, and the practice questions closely mirrored the actual GMAT exam. Thanks to e-GMAT, I was able to significantly improve my understanding and ultimately scored a 675. I highly recommend e-GMAT to anyone serious about achieving a competitive GMAT score.

Strengths:

Quant section is amazing. Scholarinium is a vast question bank providing more than enough questions to solve.

Would make the product better:

CR and RC can be improved and be a bit more similar to actual GMAT.

I'm thrilled to share my exceptional experience with e-GMAT! After completing engineering in 2018, I was rusty and needed a refresher. E-GMAT's 6-month course was a game-changer! Their study plan helped me build a strong foundation from scratch. I started with verbal, focusing on CR & RC basics, and found the pre-thinking strategy for CR incredibly helpful. The quant section was comprehensive, and the DI course covered all individual topics thoroughly. The sectional tests and cementing tests reinforced my understanding, while the scholarinium offered a vast question bank. The e-GMAT mocks simulated the actual GMAT experience perfectly. After a disappointing first attempt, I connected with my mentor, Rashmi, who provided valuable guidance. With her suggestions, I adjusted my approach and achieved a score of 665 (Q85, V83, DI 81) on my second attempt! I highly recommend e-GMAT for its structured approach, excellent resources, and supportive mentors. It was an outstanding experience that helped me achieve my GMAT goals!

Strengths:

- Good student support
- Good platform that is bug-free and has no lag
- Plenty of questions and varied levels of difficulty

Would make the product better:

- quant section is harder than official practice; can be discouraging
- mock test results are similar but not very close to the official practice test results

They have extensive practice on offer for students with their scholaranium section containing a large number of practice questions from verbal, quant and DI.
The learning is methodical (if only a bit too long) and covers all the fundamentals for achieving a good score.
Their platform is very good, with a responsive interface and 0 lag. While the official gmac platform is a mess, especially when used from two different devices.
The e-gmat staff was really helpful and was considerate when I faced certain personal challenges.

The quantitative section is quite hard in comparison to the official material from gmac. All the this pushes students to do better in this section, it can often be discouraging as well.
I am not quite sure is their mock tests are adaptive in nature but there was some difference with their mock exam scores and official gmac mock exam scores. (E-gmat percentile was lower than offical test, and the actual score was in line with official practice test scores)

Overall, a good product and I would strongly recommend it to any gmat test taker who is just starting out.

Strengths:
1. Last Mile Push Program - Rida was an amazing coach and mentor and the strategizing and mindset coaching she gave me helped me greatly in the test.
2. Cementing - so many practice questions of so many varieties helped me achieve as solid score on DI
3. Process skills - understanding how to conceptualize, infer, analyze, and then solve the problem.
4. The UI is great. It tracks progress, especially Scholaranium, giving statistics like L20 accuracy, which is great for making improvements.

Would make the product better:

Not many improvements I can give honestly, I felt the platform gave me exactly what I needed.

e-GMAT is more than just a platform providing GMAT questions. It's a comprehensive suite of coaching, practice questions, and fundamentals teaching that allows you to achieve your dream score on the GMAT. The platform is easy to use, collects important statistics on performance, and has enough practice questions to really see improvements in your performance. The Last Mile Push program is something that is really unique, I didn't even know e-GMAT offered that to me, but when I got involved in the program and learned about it, it made a huge difference. It was Rajat's youtube videos that convinced me to join the program, and at the end, it was his design of the course, with intention and volume of questions, that helped me achieve the score I wanted to get.
