I looked up the various available resources on GMAT preparation on gmatclub.com when I could not move my verbal score upwards after trying the different books on Sentence Correction and Critical Reasoning.
I realized that the online verbal course by e-GMAT differentiates itself from other online and offline course materials in the extensive list of topics covered and the practice tests at the end of each of those lessons. Knowledge about every possible concept is very important especially when you aim to score higher on the GMAT and the test tends to surprise you with a wide variety of questions as you progress. The video mode of learning ensures that you remain engaged throughout the learning process.
Overall, I would definitely recommend the verbal online course to my friends preparing for GMAT and are hoping to achieve a higher score.
I had already taken a good known verbal course and even after studying verbal part, I was not able to answer verbal questions. Then I found online webinar from E-Gmat and was very impressed with their methodology of Pre-Thinking. With Pre-thinking method and dividing SC questions into parts was very helpful. I started understanding SC questions much better after going some of the verbal online tutorials. Also I found related GMAT OG questions at the end of every tutorial; these really help to sync with official guide. For RC, I was not very sure if I should just skim the passage or read whole passage as I feel I am a slow reader. I learnt 7 step method from E-GMAT after which I realized that though first question takes more time as you are reading the whole passage and taking notes, but then you can answer rest of related passage much quicker.
I am a non native speaker & the first time I gave the gmat exam with minimal study I got V15.This was tooo low!
Next time I did SC,CR ,RC from the tutorials on EGMAT to receive a score of V30.This was with full time work and I did not get any time to revise the SC course.I am extending my E-gmat course and have given myself 40 days to improve my score from V30 to v40'S.According to my ESR report my weakness lies in the SC area and this is where I will put maximum effort.E-gmat has a very structured approach towards learning verbal and remembering RULES thus If you go through all their lessons and revise them before the exam V 35+ should not be a hard task.
I gave my exam yesterday and scored a 730. My split was V48 V42 in maths and verbal respectively. I had enrolled for the E-gmat Sentence correction course and the thing i appreciated most was the sincerity in preparing the audio visuals. When i started out my preparation i used to score around 660, primarily because i was not doing well in sentence correction. Even though i did extremely well in rc and cr , i struggled with sc because i lacked a proper approach. Thankfully E-gmat fixed that.
Egmat provides a good number of practice questions and equally good explanations. Their approach to sentence correction is probably the best among all the prep companies.Even if you cannot follow their exact methodology, the course will equip you with enough knowledge to spot the errors. Overall i feel it was a great decision to purchase this course and it probably pushed my score up by 20-30 points.
I am very happy with the two e-GMAT Verbal Online courses that I used (SC & CR). This courses were important tools in my path from 30V to 40V in 3 months.
I decided to take these online courses after some research on the web and how it was rated for non-native speakers like me. The reviews were right! The videos and the sources that I found there were very easy to understand and gave me an effective approach to face verbal questions.
Finally, despite some problems with the speed of the videos I found that the platform was very friendly. I definitely recommend this course to complement the preparation for GMAT of any non-native speaker.
E-Gmat proved to be pivotal in me getting a V39 on the eventual GMAT exam. It is a good starting point for international students. All the concepts were explained clearly and the videos proved to be a very good tool to learn.
I also liked the concept of scholaranium and the analyses provided after each test. The ability to track my performance after 5-6 tests really helped me identify my weaknesses.
The tests after each section or topic were also very helpful, I just wish that the questions in scholaranium were not a repeat of the questions that I had already practiced as that didn't reflect the correct score that I should have achieved.
Overall, I would definitely recommend any non native speakers to go for the EGMAT verbal course.
Being a non native I was struggling to improve score in verbal. When I started the course my score used to be 20 in mocks. E-GMAT verbal online course clears the concepts in very structured fashion. Questions during and after completion of each topic helps in strenthening the concepts. There is huge data of questions which cover all variety of GMAT questions. The solution provided to these question is again very well defined and practising these questions train your brain to start solving questions in correct pattern and right solution. e-GMAT verbal online course is very good for Indian students. I improved score in verbal with 17 points in just 20 days of preparation.

I took the GMAT on 19th August and scored a 710 on my first attempt. Hence I would like to thank e-GMAT for the valuable support. I took the e-GMAT verbal online course and also attended most of the highly attended free online sessions. The instruction style at e-GMAT is perfectly suited for people who want to prepare at their own pace and convenience. The quizzes before each module helped me gauge my current skill level and the final quiz after the module demonstrated a clear and tangible improvement. I feel that this course is ideal for people like me who are non-native English speakers.
I took a mock gmat 8 months back and wasn't surprised to find out that my main weakness was Verbal. Being an engineer, I was good in Quant. Hence I wanted a course that can strengthen the foundations required for cracking Verbal. After a lot of research, I found that verbal online course offered by e-gmat was the most suitable and cost effective for me.
Currently I am giving my practice tests and am able to consistently score above 700.
This increase is definitely due to the improvement that I have managed to make in my verbal score.
A few things that I loved about their Verbal strategies:
1) They emphasize on understanding the meaning of the sentence first and then identifying the error and then looking at the answer choice (earlier I used to directly look at the answer choices which would increase my confusion).
Also understanding the meaning helps especially in solving harder gmat questions as gmat often misuses certain words such as modifiers or change the voice of the sentence to correct the error but change the meaning.
Also a separate grammar section at the very beginning was very helpful to clear the basics. I think this part is very useful for the non natives.
2) In CR, they follow a unique approach of forming the Logical structure of the argument which helps identifying the scope & assumptions of the argument. Also pre-thinking helps you understand the argument better and weed out incorrect answer choices easily.
3) In RC, their approach of summarizing the topic really helped me solve questions with accuracy as it is very easy to get overloaded with information especially in humanity/history passages.
Overall I am very satisfied with the Verbal content.
I highly recommend Verbal to any non native who is struggling. They also offer some free concepts on their website where you can see first hand the quality of their resources.
Best wishes

I was really struggling to get to the right answer in SC problems and here the Verbal Online course helped quite a bit! The e-gmat approach here is simple - understand the meaning of the sentence. As soon as you figure out the flow you start figuring out the errors (eg. if you see a comparison, you start recollecting all the rules you learnt there). This helps us quite a bit in understanding question style of the gmat, and this allows e-gmat to come up with gmat like questions in their practice tests. They have a pretty comprehensive Scholaranium that can help you take your preparation to the next level as well.
Overall, I am satisfied with their Verbal Online course. If you are only subscribing to Verbal Online then training modules/sections are mainly done by the test-taker, there is minimal trainer support. e-gmat doesnt leave you on your own or anything, they just let you take the first steps and when you figure out the support mechanisms you take full help. This is especially true when you do the Scholaranium, the support there is pretty good (you can add notes to questions, leave comments for the instructors). I believe they have more focus on support when it comes to Verbal Live prep, so if you think you need a constant companion in your prep, I think Verbal Live can help you find that, plus some people flourish in competition for them I am sure their webinars are a great place to compare scores and more than that compare errors (that we all make on GMAT).
I read a lot of reviews on various sites and decided to go for the Verbal Online course and it didnt disappoint. I have mostly concentrated on the Verbal Online course above, but I am sure you will find some comprehensive reviews for Verbal Live out there as well, I would say go through some of these reviews and take some help in your leap towards your bright management career.
