For someone like me who pretty much needed to start from scratch with quant, this course was amazing. It definitely takes many many hours of dedicated study, but if you put in the hard yards, it's impossible not to improve your quant score. It's very thorough and covers every topic so that you know the subject matter inside and out. No shortcuts here but it's worth it.

What I liked most was that it's a very structured/gated program - my tendency is to skip/rush ahead (and consequently to skip over valuable material) and this course doesn't really allow for that. I also found the targetted study practice invaluable - I could go through a bank of questions that focused on a particular topic I was struggling with until I had perfected it.

I'm so pleased with my 750 score! Thanks TTP!

Amazing to have you here. If you are reading, we are probably sharing a love for cracking the GMAT. Trust me the process is worth it. I want to share with you a little about my story and hope this adds value to your preparation. Let’s start with some context.

I always knew I wanted to study an MBA. My mind is trained to think about businesses and my heart has always been towards seeing business as tool towards positive change.

I knew it as I studied my bachelors in mechanical engineering, that I will be doing the MBA route down the line. I did my masters in powertrain engineering in France because I am passionate about how mobility sector has been revolutionizing and impacting every other industry. I got involved into the tech sector and a product developer and it was not long before I could see the difference between my thought process and the 100 engineers in our group. Business viability to the future, its positioning and impact mattered to me. As I got busy learning about cultures, languages moving continuously across borders I realized the craving to expose myself to like minded people. I wanted to be among peers discussing the next big entrepreneurship idea and I chose to move to city that would give opportunity to head along the process.

This the beginning of my GMAT journey. Though I had played around with the GMAT idea back in 2018 it was December 2019 when I finally decided to go in for the exam. Little did I know it was going to be a year and a half before I would be prepared to take the exam. I started of my preparation doing some market research and getting in all the recommended books (GMAT Prep, Manhatten Prep). The Manhatten Prep guides were a joy and would recommend you to definitely read the Roadmap, because that prepares you mentally about GMAT. However till summer I was heading nowhere.

My first GMAT Preparation test I got a 670. I had tried to go through the Manhatten book and I was definitely not feeling confident about the verbal section. I made a decision at this point to go all in for the Exam and that was the mantra that carried me all along. I loved the interface, the explanation that experts global provided and I took several tests in the platform, focusing more on my test taking strategies and timing and I was plateauing in the 700 zone. I was there far too long and I was clueless how to go forward. Keen to go up, I persisted to look for solution and it was such a blessing that I found eGMAT. Initially I had planned to take my GMAT in a couple of week from the point I took the eGMAT course. I resonated so much with the approach I decided to postpone my exam and only focus on re inventing and building myself. I attended the webinars, watched their debriefs, went though the course structure, and just looking at their approach I had complete trust in the eGMAT process.

This debrief Is about eGMAT and why I think this is going to add value to your preparation. It was a huge value to me and I want to ensure that you can take value from this.

So what does eGMAT do that it gave me the right pedestal. Here are my 5 point synopsis based on the value I took from eGMAT.

1. Clearly SC: I will start with SC because that was the main reason why I signed up for eGMAT. I had no clue how, Why answers were wrong and WHY answers were right, I hated the approach to memorize and eliminate based on rules. And when I found about eGAMT meaning based approached I could so relate this to my own necessity to understand. I just gave me a lot of joy to finally understand. It gave me an appreciation for the test makers designing the exam. I started to love the SC problems. eGMATs approach Is systematic, clear, elaborate and through. You do have to trust the process and invest the time but the impeccable support from Rajat, Payal and team have that sorted having the approach customized for every single user who reaches out to the service team.

Hats off to the eGMAT team for pulling off such an excellent SC course. I would recommend you to do it just for fun, it will improve your appreciation for language.


2. Counter intuitively RC: When I started with eGMAT my RC was mediocre and I knew that to get a decent score that I needed to weed out why I was going wrong. Where was I making the mistake. The eGMATs Master comprehension course and clear structuring of the questions gave me a perspective that I missed out in my previous preparation. With the complete emphasis on understanding the meaning, I knew realized the key aress for me to improve on my RC was actually very counter intuitive. Not to worry about the timing as I read the passage. This is so hard to ingrain and trust this process but actually reading the passage thoroughly made me faster in completing the RC section with higher accuracy. I need to give huge credits to eGMAT to support me in driving this into me a habit. I picked this up from the eGMAT course and it has become a life skill.

3. Critically CR: I had always maintained CR to be one of my strong areas. Coming from a physics and engineering background I love CR. I enjoy this and have been so proud to answer CR questions. My own failures in the CR part of verbal I had related it to the lack of timing.

So it was a huge surprise for me when DJ from the e GMAT team reached to me and asked me to focus on CR because that was turning to be my weak area. While the data was telling me that my own conformity bias was not allowing me to see the real picture. I owe DJ a lot to ask me to go through the CR course completely. The pre thinking which was something that I was doing organically became something that I because conscious off and paid attention to how I was structuring it in my head with relevance to what was needed from the question. This helped me to get my accuracy in solving the Hard question correct high. The scholarinium at some point became very addictive to me. I cant wait for the upgraded version to with more analytics in it! This will be a huge plus to all the new test takers.

The second aspect on my CR that eGMAT added value was to look at my ‘takt time’ or my natural time that I was spending my time on getting the question correct. The video analytics which DJ provided me solidified my thesis that I needed a process improvement in approaching the question and also helped develop a sense of structuring.

4. Hard Quant: I am a natural math lover and I trust my process how I work with numbers so I did not take the math course even though DJ kept insisting me to take the newly launched quant program which I thought covered the basic in a well structured manner again focused on really understanding whats happening behind the numbers. Which is something I love about eGAMT. Where I took the most value from is the Quant scholarinium which can be timed and readily available solution to any question. I loved the way eGMAT structured Quant into 5 sections and I could use them individually to raise the difficulty level to hunt down my weaknesses and improve my speed. This was one of the key take-aways. I actually love the hard questions in eGMAT which tend to take a lot of time which I were I learnt he hard lesson to let go of questions that are taking a lot of time. Again this was a huge challenge to the ego when you pride yourself of your quant. This actually helped in my exam where I could pace myself and make a better decision with the exam.
5. The support : The one big value I took from eGAMT especially during the entire process is, there was always someone I could talk to during this whole journey. At time during the process you a bit by yourself and need that comforting understanding and analytical conversation which the eGMAT support team so excellently delivers. They supported me on weekends late hours and I always had the confidence that I would get a reply in the next 24 hours. This reliability is hard earned and as a business thinker I appreciate how well Rajat, Payal and team have developed this.

Other than the aforementioned points eGMAT turned out to be the only resource I started to use and the only thing that was necessary for me other than the GMAT Prep test to get the feel. I loved the SIGMA X mocks actually more and wished there were more than just the 5 available because they give you a detailed analysis as much as your ESR and give you a real visual of your performance. Also the Strategic review which eGMAT keeps repeating through the course was a game changer in my prep approach. This helped me shoot from a 670 in one of my first GMAT PREP mocks to 750.

I hope you take a lot of value from this analysis and good wishes in your preparation.

I enrolled with e-gmat after a friend's recommendation, which turned out to be a very good decision. I was mightily impressed with how structured the course is.

I would like to highlight the sections that I found helpful in my preparation.

Sentence Correction - If you are struggling with sentence correction, this is the course for you. The course builds the foundation and takes you through the details through an application-based approach, which worked pretty well in my case.

Critical Reasoning - I was particularly struggling with this section initially. The pre-thinking approach helped me a lot in streamlining my answers before diving into the answer choices and I was straight away able to eliminate the wrong answer choices.

Sigma-X - This is the closest to the actual test that you are going to get after the official mocks. The block-wise analysis at the end of each test helps you analyze each section in detail. The analysis is presented in a manner it is presented in the final ESR, which will help you assess the time you spend in each block/type of question.

Overall, I would highly recommend e-gmat.

I signed up to eGMAT in February at a point when I was feeling quite lost in terms of where to take my eGMAT preparation next. Close to a year after starting my GMAT prep my score had been stalled at 670 for several months and despite trying another online course, reading countless posts on the GMAT club forum and even a 1-1 tuition session I couldnt figure out how to make my mark budge. In particular my quant score was stuck at a very low percentile.

Coincidentally I came across the eGMAT youtube channel and after watching a few of their free webinars I was convinced this could be the missing ingredient in my preparation. After finally breaking the 700 barrier this past weekend I can confirm that that intuition was absolutely correct.

I'd like to highlight and elaborate on three key areas which were of mostly value to me in the course:
- A methodical and systematic approach to preparing for GMAT problems
- Tailored study plans further enhanced by adaptive modules that match the content to your level of skill
- Timely and personalised support from the wonderful stragey team - shout out to DJ!

Begining with the eGMAT methodology this is what really stuck out to me when I initially came across their webinars. The curriculum is thoroughly structured and well thought out, building from learning of basic concepts though to cementing of those concepts and finally test readiness. This process really forces students to learn topics in detail and really to leave no stone unturned which is essential for answering higher diffculty questions. In particular I loved the use of the process skills concept which breaks down GMAT questions into the requisite key sklls which apply across topics - this really was a game changer for me in understanding where I was going wrong on questions and allowed me to adress those specific issues, be it translating the question or drawing inferences. All in all the curriculum really changed my mindset when it came to preparing for the GMAT and made all the difference.

Secondly the curriculum was very tailored, prompting the student to input various data points prior to starting the course and also each module - this in the form of mini quizes to assess proficinecy. I loved thie way this allowed me to be efficient with my time and focus in on weaker areas. This was further supplemented by the amount of data points available from the Scholiranium platform which is eGMAT's in built question bank. Upon completion of tests I could see anything from average time to answer incorrect questions to a breakdown of accuracy by question type and module. This data made all the difference in preparation as I was able to really understand where I needed to focus my time.

Finally and most importantly was the support of DJ and the strategy team who were just an email away through the whole expereince. At multiple points in my preparation I was able to raise any doubts or concerns and was always met with friendly, personalised and insightful suggestions. Mot helpful were the personalised videos I would be sent providing analysis on my performance on quizes and instructing me on how to use the vast amount of data the eGMAT platform provides to enhance my performance.

All in all eGMAT was the game changer for me in my preparation and I could not recommend them more. My only regret is I ddin't find them sooner!

Expert's Global GMAT complete prep is an amazing learning platform, which covers the entirety of the course.
The topics are divided into very small videos , thus it isn't exhausting to learn while working.
The ample amount of questions divided according to the difficulty level , helps in understanding the gaps and the analytical tools ,which specifically depicts the weak areas in quant and verbal helped in emphasising on those topics particularly to help improve my score.
The test series with 15 mock tests, is the maximum among all the test series provided by other learning platform. It is extremely accurate as my cumulative score of 15 tests, matched my actual GMAT score.
The interface too is exactly what one sees while writing the actual GMAT ,which really helps while writing the GMAT.

I would suggest GMAT aspirants to avail the course, as its one of the cheapest available in the market, providing one everything needed to ace the GMAT

I definitely enjoyed working with Sunita to improve my verbal score. Having sat for the exam 3 times, I was stuck at 720 and wasn't sure how to break that barrier. Sunita was able to point out my overthinking and how to improve the verbal section in a very systematic way. I never understood RC better. Everyone may have heard the 'meaning-based' approach but having one-on-one time with Sunita makes it so much clearer. Every single detail/mistake was pointed out. I was much more confident on RC and verbal in general this 4th time so there was less anxiety, translating to better exam score.

The Egmat online course (quant+verbal) is possibly the best in the business. It is an extremely structured course and is ideal for someone who is looking to ace the test with minimum effort in trying to figure out how to!
Quant : with the updated course material, the Egmat quant package is possibly the most comprehensive out there. Its very rigorous in its approach and is a tad bit more difficult than the actual test. The good news is that if you can do the Egmat quant, you can definitely do the GMAT quant :)
Verbal : well, what more can i say to an already cult favourite in this domain? Egmat verbal is the most lucid and structured course. It boasts of non-native speaker success and rightly so. It breaks down a seemingly absract subject into steps. (basically converts verbal into quant!)
Mentors at Egmat : I have only good things to say about the mentors here. They are extremely prompt. They even reply on sundays and the most important thing is that they are effective! My assigned mentor (Archit Bhargava) was a treat to work with. Archit gave me the confidence that i could ace the test with a very detailed feedback and easy-to-follow steps in my preparation.
Kudos to the team! I highly recommend them!

I am 38, applying for an online MBA. My quant skills were rusty to say the least! Target was excellent in that the course builds confidence along with skills. Both the quant and the verbal effectively break down all concepts into simple components and then build them up to develop expert skills in applying skills on exam day. I found the sentence correction in particular to be refreshing in its refusal to accept 'awkwardness' as a valid reason to eliminate answer choices, instead striving to seek logical objective reasons for finding the correct answer in all cases. In my opinion this is the secret to unlocking the truly high verbal scores.

It's a great course with a huge amount of practice questions. Some are really tough, but working through it all really prepares you well for exam day.

In February of 2021 I had given my first attempt of GMAT whilst preparing for the exam myself and on the D-day after the I completed the fourth section of the exam the computer displayed a message:

“You’ve have scored 660 (Q48 V32), do you accept the score?”

Even before going to the exam, I had decided that anything less than 700 and I will cancel my score, no second thoughts required. After returning home, I was thinking how to go ahead for the second attempt. Now that scored a 720, I would like to give my review of the E-GMAT.

Why I chose E-GMAT?

During the preparation for my 1st attempt, I had attended Webinars from a couple of test-prep companies, amongst which, E-GMAT webinar hosted by Rajat S. showcased their approach towards solving the verbal problems using pre-thinking, meaning based approach, etc. This approach was what I was looking for if I had to confidently improve on the existing scores especially in Verbal. In the webinar he demoed a few questions and applied the above processes, thus instilling confidence in them.

So, I reached out to them over email and shared with them my ESR for the 1st attempt to know how deep in the water I was. Based on it, Dhananjay - the mentor – and I reached on the plan of action to follow for the next 8 weeks.



My Journey with E-GMAT in three parts 1. Course 2. Mentorship 3. Testing platform

1. Course

Verbal course is one of the best out there, if not the best. In the learning phase it doesn’t put pressure on for the timing. Its priority is set i.e., accuracy first, speed second. And slowly and steadily my timings improved naturally as part of applying the process so many times.

Master Comprehension is an under-rated part of the course, it is first module that you go through, but in my Opinion is the most crucial one for it builds the base onto which other concepts would eventually function.

Meaning based approach (SC) and Pre-thinking method (CR) are no B.S. methods in that they don’t let you waste time on answer choice which are grammatically and logically correct but are not in line with the question (helps you in hard questions).

Though I did not spend enough time on RC (since improvement wasn’t required in this section), I had completed the core concepts of Reading strategies and these are perfect for any one who is struggling with the long complex passages.

Quant course has recently been revamped based on many user reviews and bringing it to the same high level of Verbal Course. The course itself is skill adaptive, once you take the diagnostic test for each module, you are given next course of action based on your accuracy, thus saving you valuable time so that you can focus on the areas which need your attention.

One of the greatest strengths of E-GMAT, in my opinion, is their forums, build over last 10 years; any questions you have would most likely have already been asked and answered, in rare cases where they aren’t, you post it there and get the answer usually within 24 hours. Whilst making the post you are asked to put forth your analysis so that they can understand if there is any flaw in your thinking.


2. Mentorship

During the course, the mentor assigned to me was Dhananjay Lowe. Since the very first call, Dhananjay knew what plan would be most effective and doing so what would be the next steps. As an example, I was worried what my timings would be in the exam as I was taking a long time in the process application initially, but he reassured me that I don’t need to worry about it, but still, that didn’t stop me from doing so. In hindsight though, his advice was correct as I had improved my timings in Test Readiness stage (more on that below).

After each of my exam or steps of the process I used to get back to him over email/ Zoom and discuss the way forward. These steps were based on various datapoints and analytics of the tests you give and are then zeroed in on. You can ask even a silly question (I don’t recommend you do that often ) and get a reply.

In the last 10 days before exam, I got a high specialised plan day wise on what I needed to do and also got insights on those steps as well.


3. Testing Platform

E-GMAT uses two platforms Scholaranium and Sigma-X, both serve their individual purposes in your preparation.

Scholaranium is the platform where you go to do your test readiness, cementing and ability quizzes done and get insights on your performance and take corrective action. Cementing really nails the head when it comes to the learning concepts outlined in the courses. Every question has the forum discussion below it, so you can go through it once you are done reviewing your responses. The way the learning is split in to ability, cementing and test readiness allowed me to master the concepts in a structured manner.

Sigma-X is E-GMAT’s mock testing platform, which is very close to the actual GMAT in my opinion and much closer than other platforms that I have used (I’ve used Expert Global and TIME CAT). It uses block-wise difficulty to adapt to the test takers’ ability. It will give you all the analytics and datapoints for each test. You can choose the section format and exam format (test centre vs Online) prior to the start of the exam. (My last three scores were 730, 690, 750).

The explanations of the answer choices are well elaborated along with the video explanations, in every explanation you get a proper reason that make a choice incorrect.

Overall, combined with the insights given by the Mentor and the data form the various test you would give while preparing is what enabled me to improve the score from 660 to 720.


Where can E-GMAT improve on:

1. May be increase the number of Sigma-X Mocks available (as of this review it is 5)
2. Have module for the AWA in the course.
3. The User Interface of the Sigma-X, if it is like the actual GMAT, then it would be better as you would get accustomed to the UX from the get go. Though, the current UX doesn’t hinder your test taking ability.

I invested quite a time back then to find out the best verbal course available. I have gone through the GMAT club course reviews to finalize the same. After contemplating for such a long time I gave a shot at E-GMAT verbal online course. I am giving this review so that many students can be benefited.

E-GMAT verbal course is very structured. As SC is my weakest part I have gone through the SC course. It focused purely on the basics of the SC and it meaning based approach is what needs to applauded. As we all know that GMAT verbal is basically not a grammar test and tests your reasoning skills like intended meaning E-GMAT course helps us to focus in that way.

Pre-Thinking in Critical Reasoning helped me to reduce the time needed to answer and also very helpful. I struggled with Assumption questions for quite a time but with the above said approach I gained confidence and achieved 83 percentile in CR.

Also, needless to mention their scholaranium questions. These quizzes are customizable by topic/difficulty, but on top of that they have adaptive ability to develop test taking ability. The metrics that they provide has a lot of data that can can be used to identify any weak area with concept, timing or difficulty and work on it.

Overall, I would recommend verbal online course of E-Gmat for fetching a good score.
