E-GMAT's Mentorship program is a sure-shot means to achieving a top GMAT score. When I approached the e-GMAT strategy team for assistance with my study plan, I was fortunate enough to have been referred to Ashutosh (E-GMAT mentor), who added me to his cohort of 14 absolutely brilliant individuals. I will go through each component in detail:
1. Weekly hyper-specific study plans: Having them at my disposal helped eliminate ambiguity, and gave me a direction as to what I need to do on a daily basis. There were definitely a few weeks when I could not keep up with the deadlines due to several other engagements, but the weekly check-ins and the subsequent reprimands (haha) surely helped me stay consistent.
2. Motivation-booster: In the third month of my preparation, I was not able to score anywhere near my dream score. I felt as if I couldn’t do it, and was almost on the verge on giving up. It was then that Ashutosh helped me believe in myself and not give up, at least not without a fight. We also had strategy huddle sessions every two weeks where the entire cohort met virtually, discussed individual problems and where we were presented with case studies describing the flaws in different study plans and ways to avoid them. Having people transverse the same journey as yours, undoubtedly helps you in staying motivated and trusting the process.
3. Course-Correction: I absolutely hated making error logs, the primary reason why I was not achieving my dream score. After taking a few mocks, Ashutosh and I had a call wherein he pinpointed how I absolutely need to identify the pattern in my mistakes. That advice worked like magic. Although, I didn’t continue with the error log for too long, it definitely helped me streamline the most important phase of my preparation.
4. E-GMAT Course: Last but not the least, the e-GMAT course is one of the best courses available currently. It goes over all the minute details, and also provides the user with regular feedback points to evaluate one’s understanding in a particular topic. It is the only resource you need to prepare for the GMAT.
I would highly recommend this program to all aspiring test-takers. These mentors work with an unmatched passion because they really want you to succeed. Ashutosh was always available for me, and answered even my most frivolous queries without a sign of irritation. All he ever asked for in return was sincerity and consistency. Most importantly, I’m grateful to the entire e-GMAT team for such a seamless and a wonderful experience. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them.
After taking two versions of a different GMAT prep course, including an attempt at self study, I realized that I needed more interactive type of learning to fully grasp concepts. TTP is extremely thorough and doesn’t teach shortcuts, just techniques and mastery. The way the curriculum is structured is excellent and helped raise my naturally decent quant score to the highest level. Other courses depend on you thinking you have a good control over the material and question types, TTP confirms it by making you do and re-do problems along the way while learning. The team was also extremely responsive every step of the way in helping for preparation. Without TTP, I wouldn’t have been able to confidently apply to the schools I am aiming for on time. The Verbal section looked promising as well - if i had spent more time preparing or for a R2 application I would definitely consider doing it as well.

TTP is all you need to learn the concepts that are tested on the GMAT. The number of tests at the end of each chapter ensures that you've actually learnt your concepts well. Trust that if you do this course thoroughly, you will easily cross the 47 mark. The must know section is crucial to review all the most important concepts in each chapter. Regularly going through this section and reviewing your weak areas is a must. I really like how well organized and structured this course is. I definitely recommend this course to anyone starting their GMAT prep. Please make sure you use this course 4-6 months before your exam lest you forget your concepts.

the quant section of magoosh was really helpful. it really helped me analyze the topics that are most frequently tested
Mike is a genius. His way of teaching concepts is amazing.
The verbal section could be improved a bit. The SC section was amazing but the CR and RC section were lacking.
The variety of question offered in quant was amazing. The accompanying explanations too were adequate.
SC concepts were taught in a precise and concise manner. As I mentioned before , CR and RC could have been better,
The whole interface was also quite easy to navigate through
Nice experience overall
I bought the course when it's on discount, with approx 200 USD for quant & verbal. Though I found the Quant section covers every topics needed on GMAT, I think the course itselt wasn't created to help you on the application with the structure of mainly video with not many testing in between to check your understanding.
In term of the question bank, I would say the number of the total questions is abundant and not too easy.
Verbal section is average to me so please don't expect much out of it. If you are looking for a verbal online course, I would recommend e-gmat verbal for improvement in SC and CR.
I am SO thankful I chose TTP to help me on my journey to a 760! As someone who has always struggled with quant on standardized testing, I felt that TTP taught every core concept I needed and gave me to foundation to succeed. Really wish my math teachers had explained math concepts like this back in high school!
TTP's interface and analytics are straightforward and easy to use, which makes recognizing your weak spots pretty simple. There's also tons of videos that go through approaches for practice problems, and TTP frequently hosts free webinars on various quant topics. I did not use anything besides TTP and OG questions/practice tests to prep, and I felt ready on test day. Don't get me wrong, you've got to put in the work, but with a concerted effort using TTP's modules, I think anyone can achieve a high quant score.
I'd initially been hoping to just score in the low 700s, but over time, TTP actually made me feel *good* at math (huge! I've always felt slower w/ math) and know how to attack each problem. I am naturally gifted on the verbal side so I minimally studied for it, but from what I saw of the beta version of TTP's verbal offerings, it really drilled the fundamentals needed to crush verbal.
Get TTP. You won't be disappointed.
TTP does an amazing job providing you both the resources to study the material tested on the GMAT and also to quiz yourself on test content. From a Quant standpoint, TTP really covers most questions you will see on the exam.
From a Verbal standpoint, TTP also does a great job teaching you how to approach problems. TTP's Critical Reasoning section is excellent and I highly recommend it. The course also goes into very good detail when it comes to Sentence Correction and is continually adding new problems for users to test themselves.
For me, TTP was my main study resource and it really helped me achieve the score I attained.
Hello everyone
I am glad to inform you all that I score a 730 on my GMAT finally!
I would like to thank the E Gmat team for this improvement, since without them , this score seemed like a distant dream.
I remember the first time after purchasing the course, I opened E Gmat and felt pretty lost. I decided to contact the support team and within 2 hours I received back a reply detailing the best way I should go ahead with my GMAT goal.
The plan laid out by the support team was really helpful .
There were strict accuracy percentages defined and there were times when I couldn't reach them, however, the Egmat team was always encouraging in these situations and motivated me to do better.
After I completed my prep, I decided to take a sigma x mockand got a 700.It was then that Dhananjay was assigned to me as my Test Strategy Consultant. The very next day , Dhananjay sent me the next steps and analysed my mock.He made me realise that how I had a hard time letting go of questions and how my performance in Algebra was not upto the mark.
The best thing about preparing with E GMAT was the level of personal attention one gets. There were times when i got low and I was doing good, it was during these times that the E GMAT team supported me and pushed me to get back out there and work harder, AND I CNT THANK THEM ENOUGH FOR THAT!
I started my prep by going through OG practice tests and after 4 months, I saw no improvements. I looked for a better way to improve my score from my baseline of 670. I had a background in math but I couldn't improve my quant score. I did my research and TTP had the highest reviews and the best testimonials. I enrolled and completed the entire course. After I completed the course, I took a mock test and got a Q50. From that mock test and on to 5 other mocks and my two official scores, I maintained a Q50 throughout.
The key to TTP is the emphasis on a strong foundation. When I reviewed my error log, any issue always related back to a problem that I knew the foundation but I completed the problem incorrectly. This was important to me because it ensured I was never lost on the test. Any time you take the GMAT you need to put yourself in the best position possible to succeed and that is only possible by knowing every concept, which TTP guarantees.
For anyone looking to improve their quant or maintain a high quant score, TTP is the answer. The custom testing allows you to stay sharp over time and keep quizzing before you take the official test.
I can't say enough good things about TTP. The support from their team when I encountered any issue was exceptional. They supported me throughout the process and even spoke to test criteria outside of quant.

I started using GMATWhiz earlier this year to move my score up from 700 to a higher threshold. Here are my thoughts on the platform:
1) Verbal: The framework that GMATWhiz provides for CR, RC and SC is fantastic. It clearly defines concepts, and most importantly tells you which kinds of questions and which kinds of incorrect answers to expect. For me applying these two methodologies really helped me to be comfortable with the verbal section, and efficiently understand the patterns that GMAT tests. That being said, the verbal question bank
was, according to me, quite average. To be fair, I found it to be comparable to those of other test prep sources such as Kaplan and Veritas Prep. I think the verbal question banks of each prep source apart from Official GMAT questions need to be taken with a pinch of salt- GMAC spends around $3000 per question, so it is no surprise that the verbal questions of other prep providers are not exact matches.
2) Quant: The quant section was extremely detailed and felt nothing was left amiss. To be quite frank, it was so detailed that I thought I was being overtrained. Nevertheless I stuck to the GMATWhiz prep and it eventually paid off when I saw a question on that actual GMAT that I thought would never be there; thanks to the "overtraining" I was well prepared for it. I found the questions on average to be of higher difficulty than actual GMAT questions, which I thought was advantageous in the long run.
General comments:
The team is quite helpful and accommodated calls with me late into the night to account for the time difference. Saquib Hasnain, my assigned mentor, was also supportive when I bombed the first GMAT and provided solid test day advice.
Conclusion:
I would highly recommend this prep source!
