I had 3 sessions with Sunita mam and Gmat Whiz and it was a great learning experience going over the strategies for RC. Anyone struggling with RC can go over the subject with Sunita mam. I think she has an excellent hold over language and a great teaching experience. We learnt how to read a passage, solve detail type and inference type questions. The one on one sessions were particularly helpful since mam helped me identify the areas where I required improvement . I also studied SC briefly with Sunita mam and her methods were helpful for me to identify some core concepts where I lacked.

I enrolled with GMAT Whiz after researching about it on GMAT Club and after one session online with Piyush. I had already attempted GMAT multiple times and hit a plateau at 650. While I had a Q49/50 mostly, my verbal score never crossed 27, and I was disappointed. I had already spent time and money on the e-GMAT online course, and it did not seem to work for me. After understanding the course module from Piyush, I was convinced that GMATWhiz is the right fit for me. The course module included six sessions with Sunita Singhvi (Verbal tutor at GMATWhiz) and access to the entire verbal online course.

The course was very carefully designed. It first started with the basics of SC and then moving on to CR. CR structure was something I had never come across before. Sunita Singhvi designed the entire Verbal module, including CR, and the frameworks and way it has been put are just remarkable. I could see myself improving, and my method evolved drastically. The RC method popularly called 'Involved and Evolved Reading' helped me face even the most terrifying of all passages. SC module was the last we did, and I must mention, even when you do the online course since it is all designed and built by Sunita Ma'am from scratch. You will think that she is right there in front of you teaching the class.

We had checkpoints after which I used to have my one-on-one sessions with Sunita Ma'am. At every session, I remember she used to carefully examine how I am doing with respect to the methodology and give feedback. For the first time, I was enjoy studying for GMAT instead of getting all mortified with all the preparation I had been doing.

I will recommend everyone who has hit a plateau or not, to go for GMATWhiz as one size doesn't fit all. The AI-driven platform helps you work on your weaknesses and identify strength in each module. This also allows the tutor to drive the sessions in respective directions. I don't have enough words to express my strong recommendation. All the best! :)

The normal perception of Gmat that I had was that it was much easier than CAT and that 2 months of study is more than enough, but oh I was so wrong about it. I started preparing for GMAT in July and thought 2 months would be ample time to prepare for GMAT, considering the R1 deadlines and the fact that I have briefly prepared for GMAT last year. After one month of dedicated preparation off various platforms, I got a 580 in my mock. It was a complete shock as I thought I could easily achieve 620+. My preparation did not have a plan and for the next one month, I only kept practicing more and not questions on quant, SC, and CR and almost never practiced RC. One month before my exam I was scoring around 600, which was not sufficient for my target schools.

Out of desperate need, I contacted Piyush from Gmatwhiz and explained him my situation. He was very supportive from Day 1 and I started preparing from Gmatwhiz. With only 20 days left, I could only concentrate on quant. I diligently did all the practice problems. To my advantage Gmatwhiz had an AI enabled system which identifies your weak areas and only suggests the video lessons for those. In this way, I identified and worked on lot of conceptual gaps. I was consistently able to score Q49. On the exam day I got a 570 q49 and v20, though it was heartbreaking, I was not surprised as I didn’t follow a plan for verbal.

After a weeks break I started with Gmatwhiz verbal module and was able to understand how to answer questions by eliminating 4 wrong answer choices. Especially with CR, Gmatwhiz lays down common patterns which helped me tackle a lot of CR question. All this while I was consistently scoring q49 in quant and was slowly improving verbal. I scheduled an online exam on Dec 22, 40 days after my first exam. I went through all the notes I had written and reviewed the problems I got wrong on Gmatwhiz. I ended up scoring a 690..q47 and v38, my math score was low as I did not attempt two questions at the end due to lack of time. On the whole, I was able to improve 120 points in a span of 40 days mainly due to proper planning and revising the concepts again.

Having been stuck in the mid-600s for the past two years, GMATwhiz was instrumental in helping me cross the 700 mark.
The verbal section is very well designed and structured, specifically for non-native speakers. The meaning-based approach to sentence correction was a game-changer for me.
The quant section covers all the concepts in detail and focuses on application-based learning using questions from all difficulties, helping me increase my score step-by-step.

Special credits to Saquib and Sunita; they were there to help me throughout and provided solid test-day strategies. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone trying to cross the 700 barrier.

Having tried more than three GMAT prep courses (including e-GMAT), I think I can write an honest review on this one. The course, apart from being structured and projectized, which most are these days is unique and holds a distinctive which almost all the others lack. The versatility and comprehensiveness. Versatile because their pedagogy does not limit itself to a certain cadre of students. It holds the potential to cover a born student to a made one. At the outset their process of deconstructing the sentence, framework driven CR technique and evolved reading mechanism are some things, to name, that helped me reach my dream score of V41. And comprehensive, as , it covers quant with equal excellence as it does verbal. Apart from teaching the right set of questions, they have proven their ingenuity, by providing areas of common pitfalls in not just mainstream DS traps but also in every other sect (of 750 level questions) and PS problems. All this helped me achieve a whopping score of 740.

I would strongly recommend anybody, novice or not, to go for this course.

If you are reading reviews of test prep companies on Gmatclub, then there is a good chance that you already have enrolled with a gmat test-prep company and you think that your choice has not been a correct one. I was at a similar stage in my gmat journey when I came across a video of Piyush from GmatWhiz.

Before starting my preparations with GmatWhiz I had spent around 3 months in my gmat prep and had purchased a course from a popular self-proclaimed GmatGodman and another from one of the most popular gmatprep online company. What I had learnt until then were some shortcuts, tricks, and question formats covered in these courses - ticks such as one should focus on tone changing words and baselessly eliminate answer choices with superlatives in RC, in SC mindless selection of answer choice with an absolute phrase and blind elimination of options containing "being" , and many other such tricks that hardly result in quality performance on a real GMAT test. For quant, the courses that I had done until then did not have sufficient variety of “hard’ questions. Thus I did not have a correct approach towards the test and resorted to shortcuts and ticks. As a result I had a below average performance, and I was scoring around 600 on the mocks.

By August end, I was completely hopeless with my GMAT prep as my target score was 650 and the planned test date was 11th September, and I was consistently scoring only 600 on the mocks.

Then around August end, I got a chance to interact with Piyush and my mindset about GMAT was totally changed in this one discussion. Piyush emphasised on everything that I had cut corners around and had not done until now - for example: not skimming but thoroughly understanding the RC passages, spending sufficient time on SC questions to properly understand the intended meaning, understanding every word of CR passages, practicing hard quant questions, and ensuring to not to make careless mistakes on the quant. Hoping to learn something concrete, I enrolled with GMAT Whiz for a 10 day course (as I had booked my GMAT exam on 11th September) that included their AI delivered lessons and guidance by the mentors.

In the first four days of this course I understood that why any shortcuts, tricks, or guessing-patterns DO NOT help If one wants to score above average on GMAT. Knowledge of the concepts, analytical reading, correct approach, and proper understanding of the questions enable one to get his or her target score. During this course, I was taught how to properly read during GAMT so that I do not need to re-read - something which totally changed my approach towards the entire test. By developing this ability to throughly understand questions and choices in just one good read, I was able to not only correctly mark the questions but also to save a lot of time that earlier use to be spent on re-reading almost every thing. In 600+ level sentence correction questions, intended meaning plays the most important part, and GMAT Whiz SC module enables one to understand the intended meaning of even “Very-Hard” difficulty level SC questions in just one read. Once the intended meaning is clear then by quick application of simple grammar rules and logic, which are also covered in much detail in this course, one can easily and quickly arrive at the correct answer choice.

The quant section on GMAT Whiz covers the best quant concepts and has a variety of question types of all difficulty levels. The ability to correctly attempt hard level questions is really important if one wants to cross Q46 and I am so glad that I practiced all the quant questions on GMAT Whiz platform, on which around 40% quant questions have “hard” difficulty. Unlike like the other test-prep companies that said high accuracy in medium-level questions will be enough for my target score, Gmat Whiz and Piyush insisted that hard difficulty will be the deciding factor. I realised this on the test day - if one is performing above 600 on the GMAT, then around 40-45% quant questions will be of Hard difficulty.

I joined the GMAT Whiz course on 1st September, and on 11th September I wrote the GMAT and scored 660 - within 10 days my performance improved by 60 points! I credit Piyush and Gmat Whiz for this improvement because their emphasis on “developing a correct approach” enabled me to change my mindset and to develop the right approach towards this test.

Piyush and Saquib from Gmat Whiz also have really good knowledge about business schools across the globe. Post GMAT, Piyush and Saquib helped me with my applications. Under their guidance, I applied to B-schools. I was really amazed by their quality of support for application questions, essays, and interview-perp because I was able to convert 5 really good B-schools - Rotterdam School of Management, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, Cranfield University - UK, IIM-Calcutta, and HHL Leipzig, and got a waitlist from Warwick Business School.

I find myself lucky that I did my gmat prep with Gmat Whiz and also worked with them on my applications. I am going to join Rotterdam School of Management in January 2021 and I cannot express in words how grateful I feel to have met Piyush and Saquib :)

GmatWhiz made me realize that there is more to learn other than the concepts to score well on GMAT. I was not really aware of any strategies to solve GMAT questions before. But once I started studying using GMATWhiz, I got to many strategies which helped me solve questions under optimum time. The personalized study plan helped me stay focused right till the end and the organization of concepts made it really to easy for me to study a particular topic on a given day.

The way of teaching is something I have to really admire. After every concept video, there is a concept booster and practice quiz which help you solidify your understanding. The detailed solutions provided for each question helped me compare my approach with the right one and nullify the gaps if any. And the questions provided in QWizard helped me take timed quizzes. I really liked this feature because the main thing I tried to focus in my last month of preparation is the timing. I gradually reduced the time limit for every quiz and then increased the level of difficulty.

And not the least, the mentorship provided by the team is really helpful. There were times when I felt low and when I thought of giving up but the motivation and guidance provided by Piyush helped me reach my target.

Back in May, before I even began my preparation for GMAT, I attempted the first official practice test and scored 410, which in a way created a mental barrier about how much I could possibly score in the actual test, even with sufficient preparation. While I was trying out a few courses, I spoke to Piyush from GMATWhiz and told him about the aforementioned score. Based on my profile, he recommended a target of 680, which honestly, I was sceptical about achieving. Nevertheless, I went ahead with GMATWhiz as my choice of course since I found the video lessons very engaging as well as immensely useful on account of the content covering every topic right from the absolute basics. The feature that pretty much sealed the deal was the personalized analytics and recommendation engine (my job involved making recommendations to my company’s business partners based on individual performance metrics, which made this quite relatable).

I started my preparation and used the course in the exact sequence that it asks to, focussing on one section at a time. Saquib, who had been assigned to me as the strategic mentor guided me on conquering my weaknesses, especially with Quant, where I needed assistance the most. His recommendations on individual concepts, on external sources for questions as well as a detailed review of one of the official practice tests that I took, helped me identify and plug gaps. The verbal section, especially CR, is explained beautifully and trains the student very well on spotting fallacies and flaws in reasoning, which is what critical reasoning is all about. The recently added Score Predictor provides a fairly accurate range of what one’s actual score can be and was very useful. After a gruelling four-month preparation marathon, I scored 680 on the actual exam, which is exactly what Piyush had recommended. I’m highly satisfied with the score and with GMATWhiz and I recommend the course anyone who aims to tame the beast called GMAT.

GMAT whiz was launched just last year and it has already helped many students achieve their GMAT goals. I was fortunate enough to help review the course for a few weeks after the launch while I was preparing for GMAT myself. The platform is AI enabled and the course adapts per your abilities. They have a pre test before a chapter and based on your weak areas, it suggests the chapters you need to go through to solidify your concepts. I definitely recommend this course to anyone who is clear about being thorough with their fundamentals and understanding the various strategies to attack a question in both quant and verbal.
