Ravi Sreerama Reviews

Company: Veritas Prep

Ravi holds the distinction of being the single highest-rated GMAT instructor in the world on GMAT Club. The holder of degrees from UC-Berkeley (BS), USC (JD), and UCLA (MBA) he is revered for his “99th percentile or bust” teaching philosophy and beloved for the notable catchphrases that guide students through challenging test-day problems. Ravi blends a challenging classroom environment with personalized attention. An avid basketball player, Ravi has traded the borrowed mantle “the Wizard of Westwood” for the broader reach of “the Oracle of Online” in the GMAT space, now teaching students around the world with his tough-but-fair GMAT approach.

This course is absolutely amazing primarily due to the instructor Ravi. His approach to the subject matter is excellent and his personality makes learning fun. Even though it's tough to try to go through this material late in the evenings from 7-10, Ravi kept the energy level high and us students engaged. I also like the number of practice tests the course afforded and the option to have feedback. Even the on-line material was useful and plentiful. There was even flexibility in taking a lesson you missed in one of the Saturday classes. I highly recommend this course to anyone that is preparing for the GMAT.

I spent a lot of time seeking the best on-line course out there. After looking for 2 weeks I came across Veritas Prep. It was not only the great course structure that made me choose Veritas but it was its helpful staff and how help was always there when I needed it. Just ask for help and they get back to you sooner than you think.

The other reason that made me choose this course was Ravi Sreerama. Before signing up to the course I asked for a trial session and they sent me one of Ravi's classes. I took some of these trials with other companies and I can say I was easily bored after 1 hour. But not on Ravi's class. Apart from his great teaching style, he kept the class motivated. He made me try harder on each question one after the other. He reached out to everyone in the class and made sure that we understood where we did wrong and what we could do to avoid mistakes and I think that was the most important thing. He made sure everyone was satisfied at the end of the class. It was a very dynamic class with everyone helping each other out and some of us are still in touch, helping each other with problems with have on GMAT.

Conclusion, Veritas is the best course our there that I found and Ravi Sreerama Completed it in the best way.

I was skeptical at first of an online class. I didn't think the teacher would be responsive, I didn't think that I would be able to be involved or give input or have my questions answered. I was totally wrong.

Veritas did a great job covering the material and helping me prep for the GMAT. Ravi is incredibly smart and an amazing teacher. He has been teaching GMAT prep for a long time and has the ability to explain a problem from multiple perspectives. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

My practice GMAT scores have gone from 590 to 650 and I want to get consistently above 700 before I take the test. So I am continuing down the study path using the material from Ravi and Veritas Prep.

Ravi Sreerama really did a brilliant job in clarifying a number of issues, which I hadn't ironed out before my first GMAT attempt. As yet I haven't taken a new test, but in my recent practices I am getting anywhere from 700-730, which is a good improvement upon my 690. I really think Veritas Prep does a good job in simplifying the material in such a way that it is easy to understand and remember. They provide very high quality books with plenty of material to go through which allowed me to go through material before class, during class and practice afterwards.

Also, the classes focus on key take-away lessons that are are important to remember - unlike some companies, Veritas Prep focuses on the quality of what you are learning and not the quantity of questions that you run through. The classroom platform was really good and very reliable - it was pretty interactive as well as you can write questions and comments instantly or "raise your hand" if you wish to speak via the microphone. All this, paired with Ravi's brilliant teaching style, means that I really feel the course was definitely beneficial to me.

I don't think you could find a better test course than the Veritas course. The material was thorough but to the point. It went over everything you could possibly want for the GMAT and had TONS of practice questions.

The course location was right off the 405 so it wasn't tough to get there. You had to pay for parking, but it was only $2 if you went across the street to the shopping center.

When I took the exam, they were doing construction in the next room, so I highly recommend you take ear plugs to the exam just in case something like this happens to you.

The instructor, Ravi Sreerama, was amazing! He gave us all kinds of little tips along the way that improved my confidence when I got to tough questions on the exam. He was funny, nice, and chill, but he made sure everyone in the class REALLY understood what was happening.

I had never taken the GMAT before, but with very little studying other than the Veritas material and reviewing the tips Ravi gave us, I have potential to get in anywhere!

If you take a course, take Veritas. And MAKE SURE you take the course from RAVI !!!

Amazing teacher and love the class. Very good ideas provided by Ravi.The class was 3 hours long but it didn't feel that way.Ravi engaged you throughout the class.

Big question bank provided by Veritas Prep. Verbal material should have been written better.

The material will able to ease you with GMAT topics. I am fan of on demand lesson provided with full course. You can review on demand lesson before class and in class you will be better prepared and able to understand the questions more in depth.
Veritas has also started adding videos of question being explained. I wish they had more of those videos because it is much better than taking time to read over and over again to understand a problem. Both Ravi and Brian do a great job with videos.

I took the Veritas Prep GMAT Full Course and it was amazing. As an international student non-native speaker, I was having a hard time with the verbal session - more specifically with the Sentence Correction. But after taking Ravi's classes, Sentence Correction became my favorite topic in the Verbal session.

It's amazing how Ravi makes the GMAT looks so much approachable. The way he teaches and explains all the GMAT stuffs is spectacular.

If you want to get in that top 5% (95th percentile) with your GMAT score and you live in LA, don't look further; Ravi is definitely the best GMAT instructor in the city.

I have no doubt that the Veritas Prep course has helped prepare me to hit my GMAT target. This is down to the content of the course but more importantly, the way the content was delivered by the teacher, Ravi Sreerama.

As you would expect, Ravi knows the GMAT content back to front but what made him such a great teacher was the enthusiasm he brought to classes, his commitment to making sure you understand the content and his pragmatic strategies for success on test day.

If you're in the LA area, make sure you choose one of Ravi's courses.

I really enjoyed my course. The books are complete and cover every single topic. The installations are great and the size of the group is ideal to have almost a personal tutoring.

And what I like the most of my Veritas prep course was the teacher. Ravi Sreerama really enjoys giving advice and a strategy on how to beat the GMAT. He explains in the best way possible so you know the root of each problem.

I haven't taken my test yet but I am getting better prepared. What is a fact is that taken this course has given me an edge strengthening the issues I needed help.

Veritas Prep is a through and complete GMAT prep course. The materials were easy to follow with a lot of resources to help you along the way. If you run into any problems you have online help, videos and your instructor to guide you.

The practice exams and quizzes are a great learning tool to see where you are with each lesson. Also, you can always review a section with On Demand lessons which is great because sometimes it helps to go over a section a couple of times.

My instructor was Ravi Sreerama who I recommend. He is passionate and really loves what he does. He takes a genuine interest in all of his students and teaches the class in an interactive manner and offers insights. All in all I highly recommend Veritas Prep.
