The aim of the course is to guide the student to reach a higher level of preparation not only in terms of content but also in terms of strategy to face the exercises.
You start from basic knowledge to build some solid skills and then you improve with some specific,additional content.
The course provides specific methods and frameworks that at the beginning could be demanding in terms of effort but after a little while they reveal to be extremely helpful to be the most efficient possible during the exam.
The reading advices were valuable and the method provided helped me to remember the paragraphs after the first time.
The professional creators of this course are highly qualified to answer to all the questions you would like to ask them. They will never let you alone and the techniques and the tips given
will simplify a lot of calculation and effort.
I strongly suggest Gmatwhiz to everybody and even more my advice is to keep on using this course after taking Gmat to keep your brain fast and productive.

This Artificial Intelligence driven course is a one stop solution for working professionals . Quant and verbal both are equally good . The Concept booster and Practice quiz at the end of every module help a student understand the weak points at the very beginning . The AI driven course inroduces personalized modules based on the weakness of a particular student. The mentors are very friendly and helpful and they are reachable all the time. They even arrange for one to one video tutoring if a student fumbles on some concept. They track my performance from back end and enquire /give feedback about the same every week. This review is just a token of appreciation to the extensive hard work they are doing

I started my preparation and gave GMAT official mocks and scored around 640-680. But in real GMAT exam I failed miserably and scored a dismal 560 in my first attempt. I got disappointed and that time during my 2nd innings of GMAT preparation I got lucky enough and got access to GMAT Whiz online course.

The approach on CR is revolutionary with a prethinking framework for every type of CR questions such as Plan-Goal, Cause-Effect etc.It changed my approach towards solving CR questions. I was most benefited by the RC module of GMAT Whiz platform.I used to get pretty daunted and overwhelmed while solving 700 level RC questions and those passages used to take up a lot of time in mocks. The RC module changed my reading approach and my solving method of any RC passage changed drastically.The solutions of each questions provided in RC module is indeed a learning process which helped me improve my RC accuracy from 35 to 85% in real GMAT.

The basics of quant given in concept booster is very comprehensive in Quant module and the solution of the questions provided in the practice and diagnostic quiz helped me improve my timing and accuracy in quant.

I started focusing on my mistakes I made in the practice questions instead of practicing a lot of questions in a day. This helped me improve my accuracy of 130 points in 40 days and also grabbed an ISB admit of class of 2021.

Thanks to GMAT Whiz platform!!I strongly recommend who wants to make improvement in their approach and also with a strong determination to do well in GMAT!

Target Test Prep is really helpful for Quant

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

I took the GMAT four times in the past year. My first score was 700 (45Q 40V) and final score was 740 (50Q 39V).

Target Test Prep helped me improve my Quant score from Q45 to Q50 in about four months.

The program is a lot of work, but if you work through all of the lessons, example questions, and tests, I'm sure it will help you improve too. I only completed about 54% of the program because there is so much to do (I think I completed 70% of the lessons and 50% of the questions or something like that. But the program taught me a lot of math concepts and tricks that other GMAT courses had not taught me.

On my first real GMAT attempt after doing TPP I got Q48 and then on my last try I ended up with Q50.

I would recommend the program anytime (I've already recommended it to a few friends). It is kind of expensive and a lot of work, but it definitely helped me.

P.S. Make sure you review each chapter multiple times. There is so much work that you can start forgetting things from early chapters if you don't review them.

P.P.S. I used two other GMAT courses before TTP (I ended up with Q45 after both of them) so I can't give TTP all of the credit but I will give them most of the credit for improving my quant score from 45 to 50.

Course Experts' Global "Must Have" GMAT Review

Location Online

As a working man, I had very less time to prepare for GMAT and to look after my admission application. So, I was looking at someone, who can help me in every step. While looking at various options, I came to know about experts global from one of their former applicant, who was working at my workplace. After hearing to him, I visited expert's office and had a conversation with the team. During the conversation, told me everything in detail such as what team expects from me and what they will put.
After opting for full GMAT preparation and MBA application plan. I started my gmat preparation from the expert's tool. For every section expert's tool provide detailed explanation along with video of every part. Verbal part especially Sentence correction and critical reasoning is best on the tool you can find in the world. Also in the preparation course, tool teaches everything in detail, how to start preparation, how much time you should give etc. Apart from the whole preparation, its practice exam are best. They are very near to actual GMAT exam and as per team words, your score is always +-10 of the score you score in the practice exam. Apart from this preparation, experts people really keep you motivated at every step. I know during the preparation, they prepared me mentally for the exam. Their last day video really helps you to keep your nerves under control.
So, according to me if you are looking to appear for GMAT, then there is no place better than experts global. You should opt for its plans blindly. I got admits from each of business school to which I applied. So MBA and GMAT crack key is EXPERTS GLOBAL.

I really liked the content of the course and it allowed me to practice sets based on difficulty and topic-wise. This package also included 15 Mocks which are of pristine quality. I have recommended the same course/mocks to at least 10 other folks with most of them showing significant improvement in their scores. I would recommend the RC sets for practice as they are relatively longer than the usual GMAT RCs, but the perfect practice for optimization of time taken.
The analytics on the mocks is really helpful. I am sure there is no competition in the market for these mocks at such nominal prices.

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

I am a 32 year old married management consultant based out of Melbourne. I move to Australia last year with my wife and have been clocking 12-14 hour work days consistently ever since I moved here. While an MBA was always a pipe dream, I wanted to get some cross-border consulting experience to add depth to my profile before taking the gmat, hence the move to Australia. The move came slightly late in life and my age made me realise the urgency around getting a good gmat score in the first attempt itself, so as to leave an adequate buffer for writing my applications. My insane work schedule along with having to settle down in a new country made very time-poor and fatigued. My first challenge when I took up gmat prep was to navigate around the information overload on the internet around choosing the right course material and formulating the most optimal plan of attack. A good friend who is in her second year at HBS suggested TTP for quant which is when I subscribed. It fit the bill very nicely for me - my target was to get a 720+ score with a month's prep as I could only use the December break of three weeks for dedicated study and the TTP platform enabled me to plan, push through and track my progress in the easiest manner possible. The TTP chapter tests were enjoyable as they were bite-sized and were organised around a gradually increasing difficulty level (the hardest level was brutal), gamified by benchmarking performance against that of other subscribers. 15 days into the prep, I gained enough confidence to take an official mock, scoring a 700, which was good enough for me to schedule my official exam in early February. I finished my TTP course by the 20th of January (exactly 35 days) and starting taking a series of mocks, scoring around the 730 mark (going as high as 760 towards the end). Test day came and I got a score of 730 which was just what the doctor ordered!
While I know that my prep was rushed and that it's not ideal to compress an almost 3 month long prep process to a period that's just a third long, I am sure there would be a lot of people who won't have the luxury of time, hence I can't stress the benefit of using TTP enough to optimise gmat prep and cut the clutter around choosing the right prep material going in.

First, I took a baseline gmat and received a 550. I spent 3 months using a competitor as sole study course. I worked my way through the books in ~3 months time, studying a varied amount per day but usually at least 1hr. After finishing the course, I took a practice gmat to see where I stood. I scored a 650. Figuring I was doing ok, i continued using the competitor and continued to take practice tests, but was consistently scoring below 600. Realizing the competitor was not clicking for whatever reason, I started asking friends who had prepped for the gmat what course/material they used. A friend who I trust and received a high score recommended Target. I decided to give it a shot.

Upon starting Target, I quickly realized it was extensive and thorough. I worked my way through the program, completeing each module and each test in sequential order. I scheduled a gmat about ~70% of the way through the program and received a 620...not exactly what I was hoping for. I was pretty defeated, but I stayed with the program. After finishing the program, I used the custom test function to drill concepts and create tests that would help me improve my weakest areas. 3 months after the 620 score, I took the gmat again. I felt extremely prepared and felt like the work I had put in on Target would set me up for success on this test. I received a 48Q and 730 overall.

Target does a fantastic job breaking down each concept into its most basic components. After you work to master the fundamentals, Target does a great job on building on those fundamentals to get you confident in answering the most difficult quant problems. I ended up using Target for ~6 months. I was working full time and studying 1-2 hours per day m-f and 3-4 each saturday and sunday. I can honestly say I felt I understood every quantitive concept that the gmat was testing because of Target.

Targets was able to make material click in ways that the competitor I was using was not able to. I felt that the way that the course was structured was perfect in that it really drilled each aspect of the fundamentals until you mastered them. Once you mastered them, the course introduced more difficult questions, but provided extremely detailed video and written explanations for each concept/question that helped to explain how to break down the question into the fundamentals that the GMAT was attempting to test. These written and video explanations were thorough and I felt like I was receiving in person tutoring.

Lastly, the custom tests that you are able to create following the completion of the program was an extremely valuable tool. I felt like I was able to create new quant sections each study session from Target's bank of easy, medium, and difficult questions. These custom tests allowed me to drill home concepts, but also to nail timing that is essential to success on the gmat. On their custom tests, you can pick and choose concepts, # of questions, difficult, and time limit. The possibilities are immense and I used this tool for the last 2 months relentlessly to feel confident on test day.

As someone with a liberal arts background, quant did not come easy to me. Target took me to 48Q and I will definitely be recommending it to anyone who asks!

Target Test Prep gave me a sense of assurance - it was like "just follow the path and you'll be fine", at least for me. The course covered all the topics possible of GMAT Quant and was very beautifully structured. All the solutions to maths problems were comprehensive as well. Also, I especially loved the analytics that provided helpful insights and which gaps exactly to tackle. I took GMAT 3 times and my quant scores were 50, 48, 49. I used to think that I was not that good at maths (so probably I couldn't self-study), but luckily TTP had all the useful tips.

Dangerously close to the real GMAT

Overall: Extremely happy with the programme.

I have sampled other well known GMAT prep programmes also (whose names I will not mention), and I am happy that I took the Experts Global course. What I like about the programme the most is that it is dangerously close to the real GMAT.

The video lessons do not go for the overkill, they are highly GMAT focused. I appreciated that, because I am reasonable at Math, I just was not able to crack quants from the GMAT pov. Even in case of Verbal, concepts of grammar (SC), CR and RC are explained EXACTLY from the POV they are asked on the real test. This was super helpful, because when I attempted the test I was not confused amongst different nuances.

As for the practice questions and the 15 practice tests. I think Experts Global has hacked the exact logic with which GMAC prepares its questions. The questions look and feel exactly like those on the real GMAT. They even test the same concepts with exactly the same modus operandi, that the real GMAT does.

The UI of the practice tests is similar to that of the real GMAT. This also helps, because when your eyes get used to reading read text in a similar font style and the number of clicks are same, the positioning of options is similar, colours are similar etc, then it gives you an organic sense familiarity.
