Course Experts' Global GMAT Verbal Prep Online

Location Online

Detailed video solutions to problems help form a strategy.

The website was easy to use and there is a LOT of material to cover and work through questions. I really liked how the practice tests were fully explained with videos on the approach.

Expert's global definitely helped me get the score I did on the GMAT. I showed a 60 point improvement from my first attempt of the offical GMAT exam. They helped me with the concepts as well as underatanding the way the exam works. It was one of the best investments I've made, and would recommend the Expert's global to everybody.

Course Magoosh Math

Location Online

I didn't score great at GMAT but that shouldn't deter you. I didn't get enough time to prepare. Also, considering that I scored around 300 or 400 in the diagnostic test, the improvement is quite good.

Anyway, I have subscribed to a couple of prep companies, but Magoosh is my favorite. Why?

Firstly, the quality of the content is superb. However, I must admit that videos made by Mike McGarry are far superior to any others. Particularly, I love his voice and sense of humor which breaks the monotony of studying long hours.

Secondly, their support is outstanding. Whatever you need, they are there to help you. Even they consider special requests individually, which is amazing.

Thirdly, they have recently started hosting a channel at Discord which is also great to find other test takers who are studying with Magoosh.

Hey Imran, I am about to get a self study plan and I am considering Magoosh.
How much time did you have to prepare, and were you using the OG books aswell ?

June 20, 2020
ImranBinkhaled

OG is must. After you are done preparing, keep at least 2 weeks to prepare with GMAC questions only.

Time required is proportional to your current knowledge level. Take a diagnostic test. Plan accordingly. Magoosh gives a great bang for buck. You will get all the required instructions in their videos.

hi, how much time did it take you to prepare for GMAT? I also scored around 400-500 on the practice exam, and I plan to prepare my GMAT with Magoosh. I am trying to get 600-650 in two months. Do you have any strategies for me ? thank you!

Megan, a score doesn’t tell you everything. You have to diagnose ur test to find out your weak areas. Usually 2 months is not a long time for GMAT preparation. However, if you spend full time on studies, a significant improvement is possible. However, I’d suggest you go through all the magoosh lesson videos to solidify your basics. I did it, so can u.

Hi Imran,

My quant score is 42-44 and verbal score varies a lot from 31-36. I would like to improve to a Q49-50 and V39-40 at least. I feel like my SC concepts are good, though not perfect but I need more improvement in CR and RC. In quant I need to improve in NP, Inequalities, Combinations and Geometry (Mainly these because they constitute maximum number of topics on the test. But I do need to improve in quant overall). I have a 5 week target deadline so that I am well prepared for R1 of Sept intake. Would you suggest Magoosh for a 1-month course?

e-GMAT is just OK

Course e-GMAT 4M Focus

Location Online

The only thing good about e-gmat course is its verbal sentence correction rest all is overly hyped. One of the major drawbacks of the course is the quality of the questions especially in critical reasoning and even in RC. If you ask a question you get a response within 24 hours that's good but you cannot even search through previous questions/comments the interface is terrible. The interface is flash player based and very very awkward to work with it may seem that this is a petty point but it does matter when you want to revise a section. The topics are not searchable the table of contents is not good. The quant questions are quite tough, probably more than actual GMAT. For each and every question e-gmat has long explanations and that may seem a good thing about it it becomes a nuisance when you are just looking for one small thing that got you wrong, and you have to read a 2 page explanation. Again I would say the course is just OK and nothing special about it. It is overly hyped and overly marketed. I bought my subscription for about 6 months but did not even use it for more than a few weeks.

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

Location Online

I used TTP for about 4 months prior to my exam and I truly believe there is no more comprehensive study material out there for the GMAT. TTP focuses on implementation of concepts throughout the course. There is no shortage of practice tests, quizzes, that are intentionally delivered after every single chapter to solidify your understanding of each lesson. Even after you are finished with the course itself TTP has modules dedicated to taking official mock tests after the course. After I completed the course I scored between 47 and 50 on the quantitative sections of all 6 mock exams I took and my actual exam.

Before signing up, I was skeptical that the content provided was worth the money, but TTP completely delivered. It was a great step by step guide on how to tackle the GMAT. It is a worthy investment if you are willing to put in the time to learn and practice the material. Scott, Jeff and the TTP team are also entirely devoted to making sure that their students succeed and were available to me whenever I needed their assistance. With the release of their material dedicated to Verbal Review, this is truly the one-stop shop for your GMAT preparation. I wholeheartedly believe that my GMAT score would not have been possible without TTP.

Course Experts' Global Complete GMAT Prep Online

Location Online

Experts' Global has played a crucial role in both my GMAT Preparation and my MBA application.

GMAT Study Material:
After trying almost all the different GMAT study sources, I can confidently say that the Experts' Global GMAT study material is a complete package, and I would not recommend using any other content. The study plan is very comprehensive, and their tests are standard and have the same toughness level as of the real GMAT Exam.
For me, the package contains three levels of learning from beginner to advance, and the course is divided into short videos, which take out the factor of boredom. Also, the biggest plus is the 15 mock tests included in the package and tons of short tests after each lesson.

MBA Application:
I evaluated many online consultants before going with Experts’ Global. I assessed all consultants in terms of value for money, the number of reviews, help with interviews, scholarship guarantee, and found Experts’ Global to be the best, among others.
I took the 5-School package, and after completing the application, I got interview calls from all the schools and final admits from 3 schools with decent scholarships. So, based on the result, you can judge how excellent their consulting service is.
I received end-to-end support in my essays, recommendations, and mock interviews. I liked their concept of dividing the whole MBA application process into different milestones. They are always an email/phone call away in case of any help.
The team also conducted several rounds of mock interview sessions. With each session, I realized my response and interview etiquette were improving.

I would conclude by saying that the team is as passionate as you are to help you secure your dream admit.

Course Experts' Global "Must Have" GMAT Review

Location Online

If you have lost touch with basics of quants and verbal and dont want to sit through entire books to refresh just the basic concepts then the GMAT shots of experts global is the best tool that one could utilise. The short videos are just the right length, crisp, clear and accomplish their task. One should definitely go through all these before attempting their first mock test. The gmat shots are free and can be utilised at one's convenience.

The other important tool that one gets is the mock test series. The cost of 15 mock tests is definitely the lowest in the market and in no way do they compromise on quality. The questions and difficulty level of these mocks properly represent an actual exam.

Course Experts' Global 5-Weeks GMAT Crash Course

Location Online

I subscribed to Expert's Global 5 weeks crash course in 2019 and it was overall a good experience. The good thing about the course is that the entire course is divided into concise modules, which enabled me to improve my accuracy and speed. For every section expert's tool provide detailed explanation along with video of every part. Verbal part especially Sentence correction and critical reasoning is good. But I was disappointed with their mock tests as they are not adaptive and it is really difficult to score high because the tests are set on a slightly higher difficulty level. In-fact my highest mock score was around 670 yet I managed to score 710 on the real GMAT. Lastly I was not satisfied with the quant module, as the level of question is not very challenging. Over all I believe it is a good prep course if you aim to score in the low 700s but if you are aiming for a 740+ score than it won't help you much.

Course Experts' Global "Must Have" GMAT Review

Location Online

For my repeat attempt, I was in no mood to invest too much in materials, test series as I had already tried most of them.

This time around my strategy was to practice as much as I can and build in stamina for GMAT which I think I lacked during my previous attempt.

After a lot of research, I came across the Expert Global Test Series. They give 15 full high-quality tests with video explanations for every question. Detailed analytics of your weak areas to work on and all that at a very very affordable Nothing could be better.

I could improve my score by more than 60 points and a large part of it because of Expert Global. Kudos and all the best!!!!

90 Point Score Increase in ~3 weeks of Target Test Prep Quant

Course Target Test Prep Flexible Prep

Location Online

Hi All,

I recently completed the online GMAT and scored 730 (96th percentile). I could not have done so with TTP Quant.

I am currently a senior in undergrad, graduating in 2 weeks with degrees in Cell and Molecular Biology and Philosophy. I haven't taken a math class in about three years, and I was never particularly strong at math. Even in middle and high school, I would do Kumon and other such tutoring in the summers specifically because of how difficult I found math to be. Now onto my GMAT story ...

I took my first official practice test on 3/5/20 and scores a 640 with Q37 and V40. This is with no preparation. 2 weeks later, I took practice test 2 and scored a 650 with Q35 and V44. Over those two weeks, I worked with some other GMAT resources, but I didn't see any gains in my score.

On 3/30/20 I purchases the flexible program from TTP. This is the actual date that I can say I really started understanding GMAT Quant. From the first module, my approach to the questions changed, and over time I started building my test-taking intuition. I immediately stopped using other resources and only did TTP. I wont lie, I only completed a few modules because I am still in school and have a lot of classwork to manage in addition to my GMAT prep. However, the gains came very quickly.

On 4/11/20, by which point I believe I was on module 5 of TTP, I took official practice test 3 and scored a 730 with Q44 and V47. While my Verbal did improve slightly, the Quant improvement that I felt was substantial. This might go unappreciated but actually my confidence during the test was higher because I could see how much better I had become at Quant. In practice tests 1 and 2, verbal was hard because I was kind of sulking at how bad quant went. For context, I always did Quant, Verbal, IR and then AWA as my order.

When I saw 730 on 4/11, I signed up for the Online GMAT for 4/20. I continued TTP, and I took GMAT Practice Test 4 on 4/17/20 and scored Q45, V46, and 740 Total. I used microsoft paint for the quant section to simulate the online whiteboard.

On 4/20 I took the official online and sscored Q48, V42, 730, 96th percentile. So, from 3/30/20 to 4/20/20, my score improved 90 points, from Q37 to Q48 via the help of TTP.

I strongly suggest everyone to use their program! It really changed my approach in strategy and understanding, and it was sufficient in areas where other famous programs were tremendously lacking, in my opinion atleast.

Thanks

Course e-GMAT 4M Focus

The program was satisfactory when it came to practice material and content available. However, I found the webinars and emails very repetitive in nature. I found myself mostly wasting time on webinars as I was not learning anything new. The quant sections were fabulous with regard to the step-by-step explanations, which was great to build concept, however the application is the more crucial element in a GMAT exam. I found myself completely lost when it came to applying the same concept that I knew by heart, for most high level questions. I wish eGmat gave more personal attention to students. GMAT club tests were not very accurate either. I was never able to get a close approximation to my actual abilities. I started off with a decent quant score but the feedback given was not adequate to really understand my actual ability in the section.
