You can't go wrong with e-GMAT. The course is comprehensive, the analysis tools are highly useful, and the questions are great at highlighting where your weaknesses lie when you get them wrong.
The quant course is pretty much perfect. It's comprehensive, has extensive material and practice questions on all relevant topics, and the difficulty levels are pretty much the same as those of the real GMAT. On top of that, the analysis tools time every question individually and collect data for average and benchmark times, so if you think you might have trouble with timing on the real GMAT, the quant course is perfect for you. I went from 44 (48%) to 50 (86%), and probably would have scored 51 if I hadn't misread a I II III question in a hurry (those questions are my bane, on one of my real GMAT attempts I identified the correct answer to be "2 only", but chose "II only" before remembering to check what those statements actually said).
The verbal course is very good. The only imperfection is that the writing style is a little bit different from the GMAT's, but that can be easily remedied by doing only official questions after you've learned all the material in the course and have about a week before your exam. I didn't actually improve my official score at all in verbal after having done the course, because I apparently screwed up a bunch of critical reasoning questions (the verbal question type I have the most performance variability with), but I nonetheless think the course is great for verbal because I was scoring 45 and 47 on 5 official practice tests before the real exam (4 of which I had done more than a month and a half before, 1 of which I had never done and then scored 47 on), whereas I had been scoring consistently less than 43 on all practice exams I took before taking the course.
If you're still unsure, do the free trial. The audio quality kind of sucked the when I did it, but the format suited me and the practice questions were very useful. The audio and the rest of the media in the real course turned out to be clean and sophisticated anyway, so don't worry about that.

I took the eGMAT Verbal Online course for my GMAT Prep and found the course to be really comprehensive. It is a great course for someone starting from scratch and for someone who has no idea about SC and CR.
The EGMAT team also has been really supportive and instrumental in helping me achieve my target score.
Some of the pros of eGMAT community are
There is a eGMAT forum available as part of the course. Its a discussion and doubt solving forum where eGMAT experts answer student queries. The eGMAT forum is the best place to get answers to all your doubts from silliest to the most intelligent ones. Shraddha who is an SC expert helped me immensely by diligently answering and resolving my doubts within a day. The eGMAT forum is a kind of a gold mine with a great list of questions already, which has been asked by past eGMAT students. Many times, just going through the questions ,already asked, solves the doubt and gives an immense amount of knowledge around the question or concept.
The eGMAT team is really supportive and responsive for any issue or problem one faces while preparing. When I could not achieve my target score in my second attempt even after putting all the hard work I could, it was really disappointing and demoralizing. Sharang and Karan from the eGMAT team helped me analyze my ESR and assured that I can achieve my target score if I followed the right strategy. They shared the story of Jim Yi , which really inspired me a lot. I followed what they said and I achieved my target score of 750 in the next attempt.
During the course of preparation, the eGMAT team shared some videos from Rajat and Payal which has helped me a lot in creating the customized tests in the right way and analyzing my progress in Verbal ability along the way. Even though the package is online, the team is very approachable and responsive to all the student’s problems and doubts. They are really invested in the success of their students. It was overall a great experience studying with eGMAT.
Target test prep is truly special. I started the course with a decent quant background but was able to elevate my quant significantly with the platform. TTP does a great job of preparing you for the rigorous questions you will see on test day and giving you a strong foundational knowledge to build upon. I spent about 5 months on the platform reviewing the quant and beta for the verbal. The chapters provided the knowledge necessary to excel and helped me to score a 49Q. The verbal beta is also following a very similar path to that of the quant and I believe it holds much promise! Verbal, a struggle point for me, significantly increased and I was able to understand questions better as they almost became more formula-based. I found that I was often able to predict the correct answer before reading the choices based on TTP's preparation. I strongly recommend TTP to anyone beginning their GMAT journey. You will not be disappointed!
After reading all kinds of books and online material, I thought that I had exhausted every great material available out there. At that point my highest score in verbal was V29. However, when I took Egmat verbal, I realized that there were a number of concepts in verbal, I was weak at.
e-GMAT's course truly helped me to bridge those conceptual gaps. There are numerous reason as to go with Egmat Verbal course: First and foremost, Egmat teaches you the right way to attempt all kinds of questions. It does not rely on petty tricks, but on solid concepts. Secondly, scholaranium, e-GMAT's flagship product, helps to truly cement your concepts to the core. Thirdly and most importantly, e-GMAT's support is unparalleled. This was e-GMAT's team suggestion that changed my test taking game entirely. Had I not improved verbal, I would have never achieved 730 in GMAT. Many thanks to Egmat.
Good Course with many videos to help with concepts and grasping material. CR video section is small, but enough to conquer easy to medium level questions. Additional material through CR practice problem videos helped with more advanced questions. Quant section is pretty thorough. Plenty of concepts and videos. Questions are similar to Official GMAT test questions. Sentence correction section and videos are fairly in depth, but overall the course was helpful in achieving good score. Course still recommends supplementing questions with official guide and official practice tests. With proper study and preparation, Magoosh will help obtain a high GMAT Score.
My main focus for taking e-gmat was for improving my verbal score. My verbal score was 27 first time around and 34 after taking the course.
The verbal course is well structured. Modules for each topic covers exhaustive concepts tested in exam and clearly explained. I just went through all videos and practice questions and quizzes. Questions in scholarium are descent GMAT level questions.
Meaning based approach for sentence correction questions really helped me improve accuracy for SC questions. With systematic method taught for critical reasoning , I could easily answer difficult level questions.
Sigma mocks also gives a GMAT like experience and gives in depth and ESR analysis
I cannot recommend TTP enough. My biggest problem when I first started studying for the GMAT was that I had no structure. I would do a couple of problems, read the explanations when I got them wrong, and watch Youtube video when I didn't understand the concepts. I studied like this for 2 months and I felt like I was getting nowhere. I took a practice exam and scored a 560 (Q32,V34). It was at this moment that I decided I needed a more structured approach. I looked online for a program and I opted for TTP for its reviews and also its 1-week trial period. Immediately I felt like I actually had a plan of study and I started doing real, quantifiable improvement. The Quant chapters are fantastic and they really break down the concepts you need to master to nail the harder quant questions. The Verbal chapters are just as useful, and, although they are still in the Beta version, they really helped me develop a plan of attack to deal with Critical Reasoning and Sentence correction questions. I went from a 570 (Q34 V34) on my first official attempt to a 700 (Q45 V40) in about 4 months of intense studying. One thing I wish I had done differently was to sign up for the 4-month program from the beginning instead of doing month-to-month billing. I would have saved some dollars that way.
All in all, TTP is a fantastic program and the customer support is top-notch. I never had any issues with their website and they were always quick to solve any problems. I would recommend TTP to any dedicated student who wants a superior score on the GMAT. It can be a little time consuming and some of the chapters are longer than others but stick with it and have some patience, it is worth it in the end.
e-GMAT's mentorship program was the X-factor in my reaching the 700 mark. When I approached e-GMAT to help me with the study plan it asked me to take a mock to benchmark my level. I scored 640 on the mock and the folks at e-GMAT helped me identify areas of improvement. During one such discussion I was told that e-GMAT had a mentorship program and that if I was interested I could join one. I was introduced to Ashutosh and he was considerate enough to mentor me even though it had been a month since he started mentoring a batch and had no place for an extra person.
Few of the features of the mentorship plan:
1. You are given a weekly plan detailing out what to study each day and how much time to spend on each. There were weekly check ins to gauge the progress. These really helped me stay focused and complete the assigned tasks as there was a sense of accomplishment
2. The batch would catch on a fortnightly basis to discuss problems and help each other out. Ashutosh would help us with various strategies and help course correct when someone got astray
3. Ashutosh was just a call away and he would always respond to calls/texts, no matter when I pinged him. He was really invested in my progress and helped me achieve what I did
The course content of e-GMAT is very well curated and covers everything one needs to ace the GMAT. Scholaranium is a wonderful tool to test your ability and track your progress. It has around a 1000 questions in each of Quant and Verbal and each GMAT question type is very well covered. Each question has a detailed solution/explanation and the best part is that it not only provides a detailed explanation for the correct answer choice, but also provides a detailed explanation for each wrong answer choice. One can post one’s queries on each and every question and get a detailed explanation within 24 hours. I am amazed by the level of commitment and knowledge each and every one at e-GMAT has. The analytics available helps you pinpoint your weak areas so that you could go back to the study material to improve.
Just today I was speaking to a colleague about GMAT and when he mentioned that SC was his weak area, I immediately recommended e-GMAT course to him. Such has been the impact e-GMAT had on my prep.
I highly recommend this course to all those who want to crack the GMAT. Right from the course content to the mentors and faculty, e-GMAT is a class apart.
After trying multiple promising courses in the market, I found my holy grail in TTP.
TTP IS ABOVE EXPECTATIONS on both quants and verbal.
Marty and Jeff were kind enough to clear all doubts at the earliest, and the whole experience was totally interactive.
Though TTP's quant course is extremely popular, I found their verbal to be even better as compared to others. The verbal course is all-inclusive and one doesn't need to refer to anything outside it. Besides, I found the course to be extremely valuable for money as compared to pricey alternatives in the GMAT prep space. Money well spent !
Thanks, team TTP
I achieved a score improvement of 50 points in about 4 weeks.
I attempted the exam right after 2 weeks of using the egmat course and could see an improvment of 20 points. However, that was the not the best score I could have gotten since I messed up with the exam timings.
Hence, I decided to give another attempt but since the application deadlines were approaching it had to be quick. Personalized guidance from the eGMAT team was a lifesaver here. DJ from eGMAT team reached out and helped me with personalized plan, ESR analysis and a detailed/step-by-step approach for the prep. I was missing the right timing approach for the exam. DJ helped with just the thing I needed, helping me priortize. Alongside, the scholaranium with its amazing analysis directed to my weaknesses which I could then work on quickly. In my view scholaranium is the best prep guide there can be. Two weeks after the previous attempt, I attempted again and saw a huge jump of 30 point, an overall jump of 50 points in around 4 weeks.
Thank you eGMAT.
