Course e-GMAT Online 360

Location Online

I recently undertook eGMAT's online course to prepare for the GMAT, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From the comprehensive content to the invaluable mentorship, eGMAT has truly exceeded my expectations.

First and foremost, the quality of content across all sections is unparalleled. The material is meticulously crafted, covering every aspect of the GMAT syllabus in great detail. The structured approach made it easy for me to grasp even the most complex concepts.

The mentors at eGMAT are another highlight of the course. Their expertise and guidance were instrumental in my preparation journey. They provided personalized support, addressing my doubts and concerns promptly, which significantly boosted my confidence.

Thanks to eGMAT, I was able to achieve a commendable score of 655 in my first attempt. However, if there's one area for improvement, it would be the verbal course. While the content is excellent, incorporating additional techniques to enhance time management would be beneficial.

Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend eGMAT to anyone preparing for the GMAT. Their commitment to excellence and dedication to student success are truly commendable. Thank you, eGMAT, for playing a pivotal role in my GMAT journey!

Hi akshatp212,  

Heartfelt Congratulations to you on your 655 score!

A 160-point improvement is a rare feat that needs a herculean effort and endless commitment from one’s end.

The most commendable part of your journey is ‘the simplicity’ with which you went about it. You went through your prep in the recommended 3-stage sequence. You spent the majority of your prep time building a strong foundation which is evident in the image below where you achieved GRADE A/A- throughout which indicates diligence and focus.

The above efforts helped you master the structured approach and the required process skills that resulted in some exceptional RC improvement which can be seen in the image below:

The outcome all the efforts you put in the first two stages of your prep was a remarkable sub sectional accuracy in the last phase of your prep journey. The image below shows your Quant accuracy in the last few attempts.

3 months of TTP got me from 535 to 705 GMAT Focus.

Course Target Test Prep Maximum Learning

Location Online

I started my GMAT prep in mid October with a different course, and after spending (wasting) about 3 weeks with another cheaper course where I could not see any improvement in my quant, I decided to invest in myself and purchased TTP 6 months in November of 2023. It's important to note that I do not have any quant background, and have always been very strong in verbal/literature areas but I decided to pursue MBA with more technical/quantitative focus, so getting decent GMAT especially quant & data insights seemed a daunting task for me.

Anyway, in the previous course, I kept getting frustrated with myself because even after reading articles and watching videos, I got so many questions wrong. With TTP, things were immediately different. I took notes as advised, took every single question available, watched every video explanation and answers for questions I got wrong. And before you know it, I was meeting the target scores of chapter tests with ease. This gave me confidence to power through the course and study for 3 months while working full time.

Eventually, after 3 moths of religiously sticking to TTP course, I took my first GMAT in early February and got 675. I decided to practice a little more for 3 weeks and ended up with 705 at 99 percentile (equivalent of 750 at old gmat).

One thing to definitely note though is that it requires commitment and time investment, especially if you want to be thorough. I work full time so I spent 2~3 hours per weekday and 8+ hours over the weekend every week including Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year Holidays.

To be fair, some people might start with much better foundation / quant skills than I did and thus don't have to spend that much time, and that's great! But for those who are weak in quant and are specifically looking to improve that by TTP, I want to flag this isn't "let's cram in 3 weeks" kind of course.

But if you are dedicated and willing to put in the work - it works!

Overall, the service is great. I definitely would not have been able to achieve a 90 percentile plus score in such a short time without Target Test Prep. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to jumpstart GMAT Prep. For the price point, it is well worth it. I also think that the ability to personalize the service based on your scoring needs is super nice and highly important. I have not seen a test service offer as much flexibility in an easy to use platform. I am excited to see what they add to the platform. Buy TTP.

I would recommend TTP for anyone starting their GMAT prep. It has everything and the course structure is excellent. The quant section is great for anyone out of touch with maths. For the verbal, I found the answer explanations to be on point and especially the chapter tests were very helpful in reassessing problems and readjusting my prep.
In addition to that, please use the custom test feature as it allows you to make sure you can target your weakest segments. I got over my quant problems with this feature and was able to pin point a lot of knowledge gaps.
In summary, do not only go for the highest difficulty level questions and dedicate time to the course, It does pay off.

Course e-GMAT Mentorship

Location Online

Best-in-class course material for both Verbal and Quant. The question-solving techniques in Verbal help improve scores significantly. After switching to eGMAT for preparation, I learned the meaning-based approach in Sentence Correction for the first time and it helped me improve my performance in verbal significantly. The difficulty level of eGMAT practice tests is in line with the actual GMAT difficulty level hence giving very predictive test scores. I worked with Dhruv on an accelerated performance improvement plan for 2 months and he was very supportive in terms of helping me with strategic measures to improve my score. Dhruv kept motivating me to push boundaries and give my best in the exam. I followed his guidance diligently and it made my preparation very easy and smooth. I am more than happy with my decision to prepare with eGMAT as eGMAT offers best-in-class material at best price value.

The best tool for wholesome GMAT prep

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

Location Online

Overall, I believe Target Test Prep is the perfect tool for your GMAT preparation. The comprehensiveness of the course is unmatched, and the platform in itself is very intuitive. The lessons are extremely detailed and cover all relevant aspects of any topic. I used target test prep for ~3 months and was able to score 695 on the GMAT focus exam. Tbh, TTP equipped me well enough to score even higher but a careless mistake during the exam cost me significantly.

To anyone thinking about starting their GMAT prep, especially working professionals, I would 100% recommend checking out TTP, at least check out the free 5-day trial. One of the best things about the course is it's structured in a manner that even if you spend 1-2 hours on it every day, the bite-sized portions (lessons and tests) are tracked to show the level of progress which also gives you mental peace.

I used targettestprep as my only preparation for the gmat focus for one month during the last year of my undergraduate studies and scored a 685, which puts me in the 97th percentile of test-takers. I really enjoyed using the program and have to say that the team of targettestprep really implemented everything i could imagine that improves the learning. I especially enjoyed the structure with constant exercises, that enable a frequent sense of achievement and progress. Another great thing is that all the chapter tests etc. are designed so that they imitate the actual test not only in the contents but also from the interface and handling.

My Transformative Journey with e-GMAT

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Course e-GMAT Online Focused

Location Online

I recently had the pleasure of undertaking the e-GMAT course package to prepare for the GMAT, and the experience was nothing short of transformative. Initially, I purchased the course without a clear study plan, feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to start. I just made exercises and looked at the solutions, without any perspective of where I was going or how I could improve. However, my journey took a positive turn when Payal, an e-GMAT instructor, reached out to me. Her guidance played a pivotal role in my success.

One of the standout features of e-GMAT is the personalized study plan, tailored to my specific needs and timeframe. With only 12 days until my GMAT exam, Payal meticulously outlined a daily plan that focused on my weaknesses and targeted areas for improvement. This level of personalized attention set the tone for my entire preparation. The study plan was well-balanced, and Payal well understood that I was willing to work very hard in the short time I had, but still also considered it important to rest and process everything I had learned.

The e-GMAT course encompasses a variety of specialized features, each contributing to a comprehensive and effective study experience. The PACE architecture in the quant course allowed me to efficiently navigate through the material, focusing on key areas that led to a significant improvement in my quant score from Q73 to Q83. The structured approach helped me avoid unnecessary content and concentrate on what was essential for achieving my goal.

As for the RC section, Payal encouraged me to analyze data and identify root causes of each passage, and spend more time reading a passage, as compared to my previous practice approach. This change in attitude proved instrumental in enhancing my performance in RC, showcasing the effectiveness of e-GMAT's methodical approach.

The course's emphasis on Data Interpretation through Scholaranium significantly boosted my confidence in this challenging section.

Test readiness was a crucial aspect of the last steps of my e-GMAT journey. After having followed the courses of Quant and DI with the PACE architecture, I had acquired the mindset needed to approach the GMAT confidently. The only thing that remained was build up my stamina and prepare for the actual exam. e-GMAT's error log was also really helpful in this, as it helped me recognize where I could improve my timing, as well as how to avoid stupid mistakes and identify questions that I was confident in and which not (and self-knowledge is very important during the GMAT prep).

In summary, my experience with e-GMAT was exceptional, and the results spoke for themselves—an impressive 60-point improvement in just 12 days. The personalized study plan, specialized features, and focused approach to weaknesses in quant, RC, and DI all contributed to my success. I highly recommend e-GMAT to anyone seeking a structured, personalized, and effective GMAT preparation course.

Effective, use it when you have it. It would be nice if it had more mocks, the quizzes were helpful but not comprehensive. I think two months of this product should be enough to prep for the GMAT especially if you grind. I paid for three months and it was one month too many. Otherwise great product. Team is very hands on too. They want you to do well for advertisement purposes.

I didn’t use up all the questions provided nor finished the study schedule. Skip and use what you need most. Don’t have to do everything. If you do you should do well

How TargetTestPrep was the best way to study for me

Course Target Test Prep Flexible Prep

The TargetTestPrep course was genuinely the best decision I made in preparation for my GMAT Focus Exam. I was looking for an online platform that encompasses both the knowledge I need, as well as prepares me for any exercises at the real exam. This was because I learn really well through solving tasks, but I also prefer to see the underlying theory. TTP not only combined the two seamlessly, but it also included tips for the exam experience itself, such as what tricks to look out for, how to manage time, or what are common mistakes/traps that I could face. If I had to do another exam, I would definitely choose TTP again!
