I took the advanced online course with hopes of improving my quantitative score.

The course had a nice blend of topic areas and my instructor, Daniel, made an effort to understand each individual's goals and help us move toward them. There were only five people in the course so I definitely felt as though I received enough individual attention.

The materials were great; their explanations for official problems were much clearer than those provided by the GMAT. I will say that I found their practice tests (CATs) to be much harder than the real GMAT, but regardless found the CATs useful for practicing and error logging.

My quant score improved significantly - from 42 to 49 - and I would recommend MP to anyone who asks.

V32 to V38 in 4 weeks with e-GMAT Verbal Online Course

Course e-GMAT 6M Focus

I started my GMAT preparation in late November 2017. I started with official Guides. While solving the OGs I understood that I was terrible in SC and CR. So, I purchased Manhattan SC, CR, RC and IR books (2 Hard copy and 2 Kindle edition). I went through the Manhattan SC and CR books thoroughly and even made notes. I had a fair idea of the rules, but was faltering in applying them.

By June, ISB and IIMs had informed their application deadlines. So, I picked up the pace of preparation. By this time I was actively interacting in GMATClub forum and came to know about e-GMAT. I made a free account and attended almost all webinars. On my request they even provided me with the previous webinar recordings.

My first attempt in GMAT was in July end and did terribly bad. I only got 640 (Q47, V32). I took quant first and mismanaged time, so much that I had to select random answers for the last 5 questions just to complete the test. I was quite disheartened and that affected the verbal part too. I needed to improve my GMAT score to even have any chance of interview call from the B Schools.

I understood that as I scored Q47 with 5 guessed answer, I could have done much better there had I not mismanaged time. But there was no justification for scoring V32. That clearly indicated conceptual gaps. I was already familiar with the learning methods of e-GMAT so I subscribed to their verbal online course. The best part that came with the subscription was access to 25 Quant and 9 Verbal CATs of GMATClub.

I had only 5 weeks in my hand for the next GMAT test. I am an avid reader and my retention is reasonable. So, I emphasised on SC and CR part more than the RC section of e-GMAT Verbal online. I completed the video lessons and quizzes of SC and CR section. I could not complete the RC part totally. But I attempted all the CATs of GMATClub.

I also read all the articles on quant which were published by e-GMAT in GMATClub. I attempted most of the questions. I went through the details of the solutions of the questions I attempted, irrespective of whether I answered them right or wrong. After certain time, I found that my quant score was coming consistently in the range of 49-50 and my verbal score also improved.

While going through the verbal online course, initially I solved questions step by step as directed in the video lessons. But gradually, I had built some kind of intuition. I could check 2-3 aspects at once and it increased my speed in SC. The pre-thinking approach to CR also helped me a lot. Previously I was checking the answer choices again and again and still fumbling, but with pre-thinking, I could narrow down the choices and hence save on time considerably.

In the second attempt when the exam finished the score of Q49, V38 flashed in my screen. I was happy to score 710 from 640 in 5 weeks. I think had I subscribed to e-GMAT verbal online few more weeks back, I might have scored above V40.

I would highly praise e-GMAT team for the care, the step by step guidance and the follow up about their student’s progress. Even though I am done with GMAT test for the time being, I would finish the full course once I am free of the application processes. It is going to be very beneficial for future.

Quant strengthener

I used limited modules to strengthen the topics that needed attention. Concept building, explanations and examples and very good, clear and convincing. My experience with Numbers, Statistics, Probability and Geometry was good. I liked the way concepts are explained, examples provided and then the module is supplemented by multiple exercises to drill the concept.

Exercises help to strengthen the concepts and clear and missing links or confusions. Do ensure that you complete all the exercises else the learning will go in vain!

Scholaranium section will further provide the practice required for test experiences.

It's a dependable product for acing the quant section.

Sentence correction module is good as it covers the topics throughout, gives detailed and convincing explanations and helps in building the concepts. As you progress through the preparation, you will feel the need to come back to the SC lessons and that exercise will strengthen your concepts.

Critical reasoning section is average. I personally felt that many questions used for concept building are created by the team and do not adhere to the GMAT level. The explanations given by the team on discussions are not always helpful and rigid to explain their point rather than answer the question asked. It is fine for understanding the concept. For verifying your CR skills, assess your performance on OG quizzes rather than the application quizzes.

Reading Comprehension module is fine. Nothing special there.

The strength of e-Gmat is in Sentence Correction module. Remaining modules are average.

I just came out of the exam hall and received my score of 410 which is 40 points less than my previous attempt..Initially in the year 2016,I decided to appear for my first gmat exam where I scored 450.I contacted Mr.Rajat, and took the Verbal course followed by the Quantitative course.The course was extensive and I bought it again then I bought the quant part for full preparation .Although they did extended my course on the basis that I write a review and I did.I am not against them, no no , they were responsive however I have doubt with their product plus I took it twice.Would I recommend to anyone, no, not even if I take the exam next time .

The e-GMAT Verbal onile course is very usefull, basically for the non-native speaker. I was very weak in verbal. My first attempt score was only V-12 ( in gmat default pack exam 1). After the course I was improved to V21. But I know this is not enough, So I ramp up my Practice to reach atleast V30-35. My significant accuracy improvement is in Sentence correction section. Now I can say I am able to solve 70-80 question in SC. but I need bit more practice in CR and RC section to increase my over-all score upto my satisfaction. e-GMAT course has helped me achieving my score espesialy in SC.

Course Magoosh Premium

Overall very happy with the product.
Advantages:
- Price point is great.
- I would definitely advise to use it for foundation of quant.
- Videos are well structured in both verbal and quant.

Disadvantages:
- Would be difficult to get a 700+ just using just the material as there is no "advanced" section.
- The verbal questions could also be a little bit harder as I found them to be generally easier than OG questions, especially in CR and SC.

Conclusion:

I would say that Magoosh is a great starting point and that it should be used in conjunction with other sources. The price is definitely unbeatable and the user experience is great. They also have great customer service. I asked them for an extension and they gave me 1 month for free!

e-GMAT Verbal Live prep is an amazing tool with great analytics backing it. I am a master procrastinator. But the course designed in such a way that as soon as you attempt a section, you can see how well you performed and gives you an immediate feedback telling what portions to master. This course is so efficient that you just need to study, it will automatically guide in the right direction. Just follow the steps.
And the Live Sessions are GOLD!
They have the best instructor, guiding you and making you solve and literally feeding you the steps to solve the hardest questions.
Even if this course was priced at $2000, I would have bought it.

I started using e-GMAT in July 2017 and I purchased it mainly for Verbal. However it's Quant Course is equally good. All concepts which are tested on GMAT are beautifully covered and explained in detail. Its Scholaranium (ts question bank) gives the smell of official source. It also has Very Hard difficulty level questions and these type of question are rare in GMAT however I used to solve these question without timing myself. It really helped as you open other dimensions of your mind and GMAT questions will feel like a cake walk for you.

So even if e-GMAT known for verbal, it will be injustice if I do not recognize the role it played to help me to score Q50 in GMAT.

I thank entire team of e-GMAT for making my journey successful.

came to know about eGMAT verbal course through friends who already took the exam before and also through the number of debriefs of successful candidates. The lectures and pre and post assessment quizzes are apt and covers all the aspects of the exam thoroughly. The best part about the course is the scholoranium that comes with it. This question bank and the customized quizzes give us good picture of where we stand in our preparation. My SC accuracy has improved considerably due to the crisp way of teaching concepts and the concept videos are very helpful



I would highly recommend this course to all the aspirants aiming to perform better in GMAT.
