I embarked on my GMAT preparation journey with a modest 560 mock-up score, balancing a full-time executive job. Within five months, eGMAT transformed my approach and gave me all necessary skills, leading me to achieve a very satisfying 655, above my initial target. Here's why I highly recommend eGMAT:
(1) Exceptional Learning Platform: eGMAT's platform is a testament to their vast experience in GMAT preparation. The course is meticulously designed, prioritizing skill learning over mere practice. The guided learning path eliminates the guesswork of what to study each day, ensuring mastery of concepts and methodologies essential for scoring high. As a non-native English speaker, the verbal section was really scary at start… But the eGMAT course was a game-changer for me, boosting my confidence and skills (especially mastering comprehension course, capacity to identify question type and apply prethinking methodology), and placing me in the 99th percentile in the verbal section! The math courses, too, were instrumental in rejuvenating my long-forgotten high school math skills, with comprehensive coverage of all exam aspects. Finally, despite it is very recent, eGMAT provided detailed course and extensive practice materials for the Data Insights section.
(2) The Scholaranium - A Treasure of Practice: eGMAt provide access to what they call the Scholanarium which is an extensive question bank, a vital tool for cementing methodologies. It offers possibility to create custom quizzes to focus on defined level of question, defined area of a section, to focus on timing or on the topic, it helps you as well to keep you error log and every question comes with a very detailed explanation on methodology. Also, you can write down on any question for further detail and personalized answer. Everytime I did, I had an answer in less than 12 hours... This feature alone is a huge time-saver and an invaluable resource.
(3) Unparalleled Mentoring: eGMAT's mentoring system is what truly sets them apart in my opinion. From day one, I was assigned a mentor (Rashmi). I can now say she was instrumental in my success. Her guidance on study rhythm, identifying areas of improvement, and short-term action plans were pivotal. More than that, her unwavering mental and motivational support helped me navigate the emotional ups and downs of GMAT prep. GMAT is a mental roller coaster and having people by your side who unconditionally believe in you, motivate you, and give you the keys to come back stronger, is priceless. After every preparation, every mock up, Rashmi was there to help me to understand the areas to improve, how to prepare for the next one,... up to the preparation of the exam day. Also I have to mention I was really surprised, and it says a lot about eGMAT, when Rajat, the founder himself, started to personally contact me to understand on what I was struggling, giving me crucial last mile one to one coaching and sending regular messages to ensure the best attitude for test day. I can´t see any stronger testament to their commitment to student success.
GMAT preparation is an arduous journey requiring time, energy, and mental fortitude. But with eGMAT's exceptional support, methodology, tools, and dedicated team, I navigated this path successfully. A heartfelt thanks to the entire eGMAT team, especially Rashmi and Rajat, for their unparalleled support.
Recommendation: Without any hesitation, I recommend eGMAT to all GMAT aspirants. Their comprehensive approach and personalized support make a significant difference!
I started using TTP after self-studying for 1 month, after only scoring 615 on the first mock exam, I realized that I needed some sort of tutoring/lesson to help me get to my destination. I learned about TTP through a YouTuber who has used it before, and I initially trialed it for 5 days. Since signing up, I could stop myself from staying on the platform all day with the comprehensive lessons and limitless number of practice questions. After 5 weeks of immersing myself in TTP for a total of 175 hours, I received 715 on my first attempt at the GMAT Focus Edition (100% Quant, 79% Verbal, 98% DI). I am truly grateful for this platform and the awesome work done by Scott and his team, and I would recommend TTP to anyone who is looking to take the GMAT exam

Thanks to the E-GMAT Team, I was able to improve my scores from a starting ability of 650 to a 715 on the GMAT Focus. I would recommend every aspiring candidate to try out the EGMAT course as they have a step-by-step guide to sure shot success on the GMAT, irrespective of your starting ability.
The Sigma X mocks allow you to deep dive and understand not just your sectional abilities, but your sub-sectional abilities as well. Overall, the course gave me much more structured approach towards my prep and provided me with a lot more clarity. Lastly, the level of personalised support I received from my EGMAT mentor, Dhruv is something that will stay on with me for the rest of my life. He consistently backed my abilities, gave me a personalised study plan during the last few weeks, and was always a call away in the stressful moments leading up to the test. In short, thank you Team E-GMAT!! This victory is as much yours as it is mine :)

You spent the majority of your prep time building a strong foundation . These efforts helped you master the Pre-thinking approach and the required process skills that resulted in some exceptional ‘Cementing scores/accuracy’ which can be seen in the image below:

Hi Reader,
Here is my long journey to a 730 GMAT score. Please bear with me! First off, I am immensely grateful for the support of e-GMAT team throughout this journey.
I started to think about the GMAT back in May 2021, and attempted the first free OG mock. I scored a 670 on the test and thought that I am at a pretty decent score and underestimated how tough it would be to improve the score. Not knowing much about the GMAT Prep space, I took a Magoosh subscription but was not impressed with it in the first few days itself. I felt that the lessons were not comprehensive enough. When I gave the second free OG mock test in the end of June, I scored a 690. I felt this was not a good enough improvement.
So I began to look for other resources on GMAT Prep. I attended a GMAT strategy session and booked a free strategy call with one of the experts. I was convinced that e-GMAT are experts in the GMAT prep space and bought the GMAT Online focused subscription. I started with Verbal and was able to witness gradual improvement across all the subsections.Thanks to e-GMAT’s cementing process, I was able to track my progress in an efficient manner.
From August ’21 to May ’22, I was not able to focus my energies on the GMAT prep due to excessive work responsibilities. Due to the extension policies set by e-GMAT (max. 90 days of account freeze allowed), I had to keep the subscription going for most of this time period. This rigid account suspension timeline is the only drawback that I have observed with e-GMAT’s subscriptions.
Starting June ’22, I was able to refocus on the GMAT prep and started revising the Verbal modules I had previously completed. I was continuously scoring better on the mocks (700, 750, 740, 760) during this period. I gave my first GMAT Online attempt in Aug '22 and scored an underwhelming 680. I was unable to understand the reason because the mock tests had indicated my score to be in the mid 700s. This is when I reached out to e-GMAT seeking help to improve my score and understand where I am lacking. I also requested to be included in e-GMAT’s Last Mile Program (LMP), wherein one of the experts from e-GMAT works 1-1 with you to help you reach your target score.
Rida from e-GMAT’s team helped me get enrolled into the LMP and we got to work immediately. She first helped me analyze what was wrong with my GMAT Online attempt, and then charted an intensive test-readiness plan for me to help my Verbal and Quant abilities. I was able to improve my abilities across the board and this was evident in my quizzes as well. She was very responsive to my queries and our regular connects to track the progress were of immense help to me. I was able to discuss any concerns or plan changes with her.
The mocks during this time period were of immense help as they helped me get into the mindset of continued focus for greater periods of time. However, there were times when I scored 680 on a particular mock, primarily due to a weak Verbal Score. To help overcome these, Rida sent some session recordings and document links that were helpful to overcome my shortcomings. I also attempted the SC ability booster sessions that were moderated by Payal, and they helped me understand my level and refine my SC ability to a great extent.
I gave the second GMAT Online attempt in Sept with a whole lot of confidence, but the result was to my utter shock! I had scored a 660, even lower than my first attempt. I was in complete disbelief as to what had just happened, but was more determined than ever to reach my target score. Rida helped me calm down, be positive and analyze the issues in the attempt. We found that I was feeling some level of performance anxiety during the attempts which was leading to suboptimal performance in the tests. We were confident on my abilities and just needed to build upon these to reach to a better score.
Also, after this attempt, the work responsibilities increased which meant that I had lesser time to dedicate to prep. So Rida helped me with an appropriate test readiness plan that could be completed in the limited time I had. I only had 2 unattempted OG mocks left that I had to use judiciously. I scored 760 on both these tests, which was a huge confidence booster for me.
Apart from the test, I also worked on developing a detached mindset and did not focus much on the score. Discussions with Rida were instrumental in this regard. We decided to have an in-person attempt this time because of the reason that it would be a much better environment to build focus rather than attempting the test at home. And sure enough, it was a good experience at the center. I was able to score a 730 on the test this time, which is much closer to my mock scores.
The last few months have been a period of hard work and persistence. And I can’t thank Rida and the e-GMAT team enough for helping me throughout this process. I am confident that these are the best people in the business for anyone who wants to excel at GMAT.
The Unique Aspects of e-GMAT that helped me:
1. PACE - PACE helped me in charting a streamlined Quant path by guiding me exactly where I need to spend my efforts.
2. Meaning-based approach for SC - Although I was already relying on the meaning before I saw this first-hand in e-GMAT, the SC modules in e-GMAT helped me use this approach along with identifying the correct grammar and this led to immense improvement of SC scores.
3. Pre-thinking approach for RC and CR - The pre-thinking process has been a game changer for me. Earlier, I used to read the question and directly jump to the option choices. However, pre-thinking allows me to understand the question stem and get involved with the universe of the question. This helps me to understand what the option choices really mean. I am happy to state that my CR and RC scores have improved significantly by using this method.
4. Cementing - In my opinion, Cementing is a very unique strength of the e-GMAT program. It helps one truly gauge their ability in a particular subsection of Quant/ Verbal. It has been really helpful whenever I had to track my progress.
5. Expert support - What truly sets e-GMAT apart is that the team is relentlessly devoted to helping the students in the best way possible. These experts readily repspond to any student queries from a question doubt or strategy standpoint. I truly believe when I say that I would have been able to reach to my current level without the support of Rida and other experts at e-GMAT.
6. Compassion towards the students - I was able to share any personal circumstances that were affecting my GMAT prep with Rida, and she was able to help navigate these circumstances. Together with Rida, I was able to identify the mental (test mindset) barriers that were preventing me from obtaining a good score on the first two attempts. The e-GMAT team is truly invested in the success of the students from all angles.
7. Last Mile Program (LMP) - This program is a godsend for students who have limited time to attempt the GMAT and are already at a decent ability. In my case, I was able to move through some of the topics in a swift manner. The test readiness quizzes that were integrated into my plan were really helpful in emulating the actual test questions. Also, Rida used to share some additional Verbal resources and recordings that helped me obtain that last push for the target scores.
8. Sigma-X mock tests - Although I have not attempted any other tests other than Sigma-X mock tests and OG mock tests, I found that the questions and scoring algorithm from Sigma-X mock tests are very similar to those of OG mock tests. These were a good testing resource for me.
Although this seems like a long sponsored endorsement for e-GMAT, that is absolutely not the case :) e-GMAT’s results and stats within the GMAT Prep industry speak for themselves. Infact, my journey is not yet complete, as I am gearing for my next GMAT attempt within the next few days. Wish me Luck!!
[UPDATE]: I went for the 5th attempt and was able to score a 740!! Rida helped me focus on test readiness and exam mindset for achieving this score. The 1-1 session with Verbal SME Harsha was instrumental in improving my Verbal score.
Hey tusharmrigwani,
Hearty congratulations on the 730 score!
As your mentor, working with you these past few months has been a wonderful experience- your attention to detail, focus on approach and drive to get to your target score all indicate that you will excel beyond measure at business school and beyond.
Your ability to bounce back after a bad attempt, reassess the situation and willingness to work on a path to improvement is a testament to your innate strength of character. When you wrote the below after the 660, many in your position might choose to give up -
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Tusharmrigwani-Email-After-660
But you decided that you were far from done and worked hard to build the right framework to ace the test!
I can see how much time and effort you have put into perfecting methodologies and working on timing. You spent time going through files multiple times so that you could perfect the minute aspects of a particular approach.
This approach particularly helped you in SC, especially in modifiers, where you worked to improve both accuracy and timing, by perfecting the meaning-based approach.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Tusharmrigwani-SC-Improvement
In CR as well, this process of method perfection helped you go beyond the 90th percentile. I can see how you reviewed each and every quiz, and leveraged the feedback given by the system. This allowed you to tackle every new quiz with a more nuanced understanding of the approach and thus attain 80% plus accuracy on hard questions, as shown below.
Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Tusharmrigwani-CR-90th-Percentile-Ability
The mindset is truly one of the most important facets of being GMAT ready. You can work through all your weaknesses, and excel in mocks, but if you don’t have the right mix of confidence and detachment when you tackle the actual exam, you can set yourself up for failure. It's amazing how well you learnt from your second attempt in this regard.
I am sure that you are going to absolutely kill it in your next attempt, and I am excited to continue to work with you in this endeavour!
All the best!
Regards,
Rida
I have taken the E-gmat online course to prepare for the Executive assessment. With the help from e-GMAT, course I was able to improve quants score by 3 points and was able to score 12.
Before taking e-gmat online course I enrolled for the private tuition by one of the gmat prep company.
For anyone who is preparing for GMAT or EA, e-GMAT course content is just right. You can not get this wrong. Although I was not required to run through whole GMAT program but e-gmat has got good concept files and good practices to improve on your ability.
Amazing hard work put in by the team in creating wonderful content.
This course was highly effective at providing what I needed, which was a comprehensive self-study overview of GMAT content. The material is taught in an order that makes sense, and you can go at your own pace. Although I started from a high base score (740 on my first official MBA.com practice exam with no real studying), I felt that TTP helped me fill the gaps in my skills to ensure that I would get a 770+ on test day. My last three practice exams (taken over the course of 5 weeks prior to my exam) were all 770, with verbal scores ranging from 45-47 and quant scores between 49-51. Test day was a bit stressful, but I was able to pull a 780 (Q49, V51, IR8).
Marty was extremely helpful in motivating me and providing targeted advice for how I should structure my prep. I didn't need to or want to chat with him on a weekly basis about my prep, but he was extremely responsive when I needed advice.
The only downside about this course is that the verbal questions (especially CR) are really, really hard (almost demoralizingly so). But they prepare you well, and I got a V51 on test day, so I can't complain. The quant questions are tricky but cover just about every concept you could reasonably expect to see - I found their quant material to be representative of the test material.
I enrolled for the Verbal Live Prep course at e-gmat in March. However, after procrastinating for 3 months i started doing the online modules provided by e-gmat in July. I started off with the Sentence correction section and i was simply amazed by the quality of their content. Each and every concept is covered in detailed and the post quizzes after each concept cement the concept in your mind (I cursed myself for wasting those 3 months).
I then started off with CR online modules and i also attended the live sessions taken by Rajat. Rajat is -the guy- for CR, the prethinking strategies really helped me a lot. I was really bad at CR but i have improved tremendously post the egmat CR course.
Lastly, the point that stands out for me is the support that e-gmat provides. Each of my query, till date, has been responded to within 24 hours. I would want to take this opportunity to thank Deepak for clearing all my doubts. I have seen significant improvement in the verbal section in the mocks that i have taken and i would owe that success to egmat. I hope to write a similar debrief thanking egmat once i take the actual exam.
The GMAT Verbal school is split into 3 parts - RC / SC / CR. My major aim for getting into this course was SC and I started to prepare for the same using the E-Gmat course. Now, I can see that when it comes to SC, there is a clear improvement. I want to prepare properly for another one month using the same to make sure I prepare to an extent that my score would be unbeaten. Please use E-Gmat especially for verbal preparation as it can improve your score by a great magnitude. This will give you an edge and you will be ready to send your score to the b-school of your choice.
Dear Moulio,
A hearty congratulations on a well-earned 655😊 What a journey it has been, and I am so glad that you have been able to surpass your target score in this attempt! It has been a pleasure working with you during this journey!
I am really glad to hear that you enjoyed our learning platform. Your improvement from the 26th percentile to the 99th percentile in verbal is a testament to the effort that you put into making the most of the platform. See how despite the challenges of being a non-native speaker, you were able to improve to an exceptional verbal score:
Image link: https://success.e-gmat.com/moulio-verbal-stats
It is great to know that you found the quant and the DI courses equally effective. As you have rightly mentioned, DI is a new course, and it is important to have a course that is comprehensive and equips you with all the skills needed to excel in DI, and also provides sufficient questions for practice. It is heartening to know that you did not feel the need to refer to any other material on DI and the material on the platform was sufficient for you to reach an enviable score of D82.
It is not just enough to build a rock-solid foundation. To get a top score on the GMAT, you need to excel in applications; for this, you need to practice on great quality questions. Not only that, but you also need tools that help you identify and fix any pockets of weaknesses. It is really commendable how you leveraged the Scholaranium to do targeted practice that helped you excel across the sub-sections. See how this data-driven approach helped you not only improve your accuracy to 79% in word problems but also helped reduce the overall time to 1min 54 seconds:
Image link: https://success.e-gmat.com/moulio-wp-accuracy-vs-timing
Thank you for your amazing feedback on our mentorship program – we place student preparation and success at the core of our philosophy, and it is heartening to learn that it was instrumental in helping you get to your dream score. At the same time, the pleasure has been ours too – working with you and seeing the unwavering commitment to success😊
It must not be easy to balance your busy work life with the GMAT preparation and excel at it, but I am delighted to see how you managed this and achieved a wonderful score. Congratulations again on this wonderful achievement.
Here is wishing you all the very best for all your future endeavors.
Best regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
