Course Manhattan Prep GMAT Private Tutoring

Instructor Jeff Vollmer

Location Online

I went into working with Jeff with very little context on the GMAT and a general assumption that if I had done well on past standardized exams, I could do well on the GMAT with minimal effort levels. Not only was I wrong, but I quite literally could not have gotten the score I received without Jeff's coaching, support, and the structure he provided. Jeff is without a doubt the most helpful tutor I've had and managed to provide an approach to my exam that helped me succeed beyond my own expectations. I would recommend Jeff and Manhattan Prep to any student looking to nail the GMAT and get over the hump.

e-GMAT Mentorship Program

Course e-GMAT 2M Focus

Instructor Dhananjay(DJ)

Location Online

After one failed attempt at the GMAT on Feb 26th 2020 in which I scored a 660(Q48 & V32), I decided it was time for me to take some external support. Going with the most popular rated course on the Gmat Club, I got myself enrolled with e-GMAT. Being an engineer and good at math, Quant came naturally to me. Verbal was my weakest area and I needed serious help in it. On knowing that the Verbal Online package didn’t include any mocks, I opted to go for the GMAT Online package, which included Quant and Verbal course, 5 SigmaX mocks and a hoard of other questions for practise on its Scholaranium platform. Looking back it was the best decision I had taken in my prep.

After accessing the course for 2 weeks, I got a phone call from Dhananjay (DJ), who would be my future mentor, asking whether I would be interested in a Mentorship program. I was told that this program would make me a part of a cohort of 15 applicants like me who were also in their preparation phase, that I’d be given daily milestones to meet and that at the end of the week the mentor would have a strategic huddle with the cohort so as to discuss the short comings of the week gone by. I could not find any reason to say no and I immediately hopped on board. What followed was an extremely well planned and guided course of action. As promised we were given our milestones and had weekly huddles in which DJ would boost our Morales, discussing the success stories of various students who had achieved their target scores using the same platform. The mentorship program made me feel accountable for my performance and made me realize the mistakes I had made during my first attempt. The e-GMAT mocks are a good representative of the actual GMAT and the Scholaranium questions also comprise of a good mix. In short, once I had the access to the e-GMAT platform, I never felt the need for more. I would highly recommend anyone, who is especially facing any issue with the Verbal section, to get enrolled in the mentorship program and be truthful to it.

To be honest for any program to work, we ourselves play a very critical role. Unless we are extremely critical of and truthful with ourselves, no study material can help us reach the target score. Likewise, e-GMAT also mentions so in a very clear way. For e.g. the mentorship program would not have worked if I wasn’t honest to DJ about meeting my milestones or if I didn’t tell him the actual issues I was facing, I wouldn’t get the advice I expected. It is a two way street. Here, I’d like to appreciate the role DJ has played with all my sincerity. He was always there when I scored badly on my mocks to lift my morale, to help me with any specific issue and at the same time he showed me the mirror when I was going wrong and when it was time to pull up my socks. I ended up getting a 750 on my third attempt. Not only my verbal score improved from a V32 to a V41, but my Quant score also improved from a Q48 to a Q50. Although, I did not use the e-GMAT Quant course but I sure did practise the sums on its Scholaranium platform, which helped me a lot.

On a parting note I’d like to mention two takeaways one from each of the founders of e-GMAT.
Once while attending a webinar Rajat mentioned there are two types of students who access the same material, one achieves his target score while the other one fails to achieve it. He asks us the reason why? Both the students had access to the same material, so ideally both of them should have succeeded. So what was that differentiating factor?
On similar lines, at the beginning of the e-GMAT course, Payal, in one of her videos about the various stages of learning, talks about the importance of being self-critical. She puts forth a very interesting strategy that helped me particularly during my prep. It was asking the question WHY? If you get a SC question right, figure out why did you get it right? Similarly, if you get a SC question wrong, figure out the reason? What made you select the wrong choice and eliminate the right one? I think this level of self-criticality is expected out of every one of us taking a dig at GMAT.

Lastly, I’d like to say always look at the big picture. Do not lose sight of it. GMAT is not the end of the world.

Course Experts' Global "Must Have" GMAT Review

Location Online

I joined Experts' Global program around 2 months before my exam. It was really good. One should join the program early on as it has a lot to offer and I was unable to use all the content. The mock tests included all the topics required for the GMAT exam and the difficulty level is also very similar to that of the original exam. The scores I received were aligned with my original score. The explanations given for the answers were thorough and lucid. I personally felt that the Verbal section was a little easy but it covered all the required areas.

eGMAT Mentorship is a GMAT experience with a human face. It can be challenging to have a tight study schedule with competing work and family obligations. In such a situation, eGMAT mentorship is a saviour because it not only saves you time by providing you with a clear path to achieve your GMAT goals but also keeps you motivated and pulls you back when you are going off the course. This in particular is key as consistency is the most important factor for the GMAT.

The eGMAT online platform is also one of the best I have seen so far:

· The way the course is designed e.g. it is very easy to listen to all the theory through videos and then practise on files through various quizzes to cement the concepts.

· The SIGMA mock tests give you analytics on time taken per question and section of the GMAT. This is as close to the ESR as you can get. This was crucial for me and my mentors to understand what was happening to me in the test mode and devise a strategy to get over my areas of weakness.

* I was skeptical about my scope to improve on Quant but eGMAT made it possible. Without the exceptional support and guidance from Karan and Ashutosh, I do not think this would be possible.

If you have limited time and are keen to get a good score, I would recommend the eGMAT mentorship program without a doubt. I owe my score almost entirely to them. My only regret is, I wish I had found them earlier.

I started my GMAT preparation from scratch. Did not know the structure, marking scheme, patter, types of questions,etc. With proper guidance and customised study plan that was crafted for me on basis of my performance in first mock, i was able to concentrate more on learning rather than planning how to study. The verbal course can do wonders and has so much to offer. It helps strengthen the basics and then allows you to practice the GMAT like questions. Scholaranium has well crafted questions which help in mastering the actual GMAT questions with ease. Egmat course and mentorship program helped me achieve my target score of 700+

The best part about the e-GMAT course is that it offers an accurate, well planned and data-driven approach to help you work towards improving your GMAT score at a very affordable price.

To give some context, I took the GMAT last year by relying only on the Official Guide. While this helped me realize my baseline score, it also made me realize several concept and process weaknesses that I knew I had to work on. I needed a very personalized approach that allowed me to build a strong conceptual foundation from scratch and then develop systematic approaches to solving each type of question possible in the test. I quickly realized that the only way to get this would be through a tutor that could give me personalized attention but at a significant cost.

e-GMAT however is able to provide a very similar service by leveraging data analysis to understand a student's strengths and weaknesses thoroughly. The team of experts is with you every step of the way in charting out a structured plan on cementing Quantitative and Verbal concepts and processes. I exchanged 40+ emails with the team. They were very quick and detailed in their responses. A special thanks to Deepak Bansal and Karan Kantharia for their support throughout this journey. Various team experts supported me while I was learning the concepts and processes. Deepak was able to use my quiz attempt and mock test data to provide valuable insight into critical weaknesses that I had. The key weaknesses that he was able to point out were pacing myself, paying special attention to key weak areas in RC & SC and revisiting concept files for specific topics in Q or V. I was able to improve my score from 690 to 740 in my first attempt since working with e-GMAT. I was able to push it 10 points higher because of further inputs from Deepak on specific areas of improvement.

To use e-GMAT's empowering tools to excel, you will need the following traits:
1. Adaptability: Initially, you will need to be very adaptable to change your existing thought processes and systems. The more adaptable you are, the more quickly you will be able to learn the e-GMAT way.
2. Sincerity: One of the key aspects to being successful with e-GMAT is to follow their recommendations thoroughly. The more sincere and diligent you are in taking the recommendations of experts seriously, the more you will benefit.
3. Trust the process: Their methods have stood the test of time and generated several success stories. Trusting the process is essential in helping you take ownership of your journey to excel at the GMAT. This will also allow you to give it your 100% when transforming the way you approach the GMAT.

With these traits and the support that the team offers, I have no doubt that you will be successful in achieving a higher score than you would by yourself!

Review of Experts' Global Complete Course

Course Experts' Global Complete GMAT Prep Online

Location Online

The Experts' Global Complete GMAT Prep Online is very well organized, and it breaks it down by individual topics. For each topic it gives an overview of the approach and concepts, common traps, and then few questions immediately after it to test your learning. The practice questions are also in the GMAT’s interface, so it prepares you from the start.
They have a section called ‘GMAT Shots’. I really liked this section and it was super helpful. This is essentially a 2 min video of all the common topics, common mistakes etc. Essentially this is like having a flash card or some place where you take notes on important topics or topics you need to revise again. It has several videos and covers both quant and verbal topics. Once I was familiar with the concepts, I used this section to revise the concepts to ensure they stayed with me. I also used this section few days before my exam to go through some of the concepts that needed additional review
Verbal was my weak section and this course helped me tremendously. I particularly liked the Sentence Correction course. The concepts were explained very clearly, and I was able to grasp them and apply the same to the questions immediately. The videos are very engaging, and it follows a meaning-based-approach to solve the questions. This approach helped me instantly. I was able to apply the same concept on my actual GMAT exam and was able to clearly eliminate some of the answer choices. Towards the end of my preparation, Sentence Correction was my strength in Verbal. CR and RC courses are good too.
Quant was my strength but even then, this course helped me ensure I do not make those silly mistakes. Some topics where I used to take more than 2 minutes to solve, I found optimal ways and quicker approach to solve them within 2 minutes and correctly.
Overall the platform is very user intuitive and has some great tools and features to understand concepts and practice questions. After I took this course, I was able to attack the OG questions with much more confidence.

Hey folks,

Acing GMAT is not an easy journey. When I first saw an SC problem, I felt that I will never be able to do well on this exam. Some of my peers who scored well could solve SC Qs in less than a minute. I continued to ask myself what is it that I am missing.

I tried several offline coaching institutes. Solved OG, coaching institute material and what not. It still took me at least 3 mins to tackle a SC Qs.

Finally, I came across e-GMAT's SC course. Its approach of teaching SC was no where close to what I had been taught. One module at a time, I kept moving. It took me about a month to internalise every concept. And after doing so, my SC skills were far better than some of the best English writers. I became so proficient that at times I could spot errors in newspaper editorials.

Since then I have recommended e-GMAT's SC to at least 10 friends who have shared similar problems as mine.

I jumped from V19 to V34. And now I am close to V 40. My concepts are totally clear, however, comprehension and speed need more work.

I thank the e-GMAT's team and would like to tell all my fellow community members here, don't give up; we will get there!
