I have been utilising the eGMAT for my preparation and have found a significant improvement as it is great tool to identify ones weakness and then provides the right kind of tools to work on and improve upon the same. The e gmat module is a very well organised with respect to the study material with the right kind of test preparation tools and the practice sessions. Their concept files are aptly covering the required concepts and the schloaranium module effectively covers the skills such as timing with enough range of questions.The Verbal module is boon to all non natives to understand the process logically and attempt to improve the skill and process.Similarly the quant online module is sleek in terms of the right amount of knowledge imparted and skills trained to hit the desired score.
The best part of Magoosh is that it available for access for a complete year.So you don't have to worry about renewal.
The question bank is good and explanations are also good. But for non native speaker it does less to add to the skill set.
Support is for sure the best of all.You can expect reply within a day .
But the team needs to increase quality questions in their banks. After they are exhausted you get the same question for practice test also which definitely gives a false picture of your actual score.
So overall it is good only if you are native speaker else it does less to help.
I gave a GMAT attempt on 12 Jan 2018 and scored a low 600. Being an Indian my quant score was up to the mark, but where I tanked was the verbal section. The low score sent me into self-analysis mode and after going through multiple test preparation portals (primarily GMATClub), I came across E-gmat.
I read multiple reviews of their how awesomely paced their Verbal online learning section and decided to give it a try.
After going through the complete video modules, especially sentence correction and reading comprehension, I could see, to my utter shock, what I was lacking before. The step by step explanation of concepts really made me improve my basics thereby improving my score. Furthermore, special mention and praises for their Scholaranium, which is by far the best questions module I have encountered for Verbal. The kind of questions present in the Scholaranium are totally in line, if not better than the official GMAT exam.
Any aspiring candidate willing to really score well in GMAT, especially the verbal section should definitely enrol in the E-gmat course.
All the best you tou all!
First of all, I want to say how excited I am to be writing this review right now. I looked at the course reviews all the time and told myself that once I finally got the score that I wanted that I would write a review to help calm and motivate other GMAT test-takers. Before I began using Target Test Prep, I had been studying for roughly 2 months and seemed to be stuck around Q44. I've always been pretty good at math so I was a bit shocked when using some of the recommended book series didn't get me to where I wanted to be. I knew that I was capable of better than a Q44 and also knew that I needed at least Q48 to reach the score range that I had set for myself. I began to look around on GMATClub and other GMAT related sites to see if there was product focused solely on the quantitative section of the GMAT and that had consistently good results. After reading the reviews of TTP and learning about the 5 day trial for just $1, I figured it was worth the shot. I was immediately hooked as soon as I began using the platform. It's very intuitive and easy to use. It makes the math simple and easy to understand and includes more practice problems than one could ever possibly need. I did the entire program and answered every problem the course had to offer over the span of about 3 months while simultaneously meeting with Jeff Miller (one of the TTP tutors) once a week. All I can say is that the program works, especially when coupled with Jeff Miller (seriously Jeff is the man and knows how to spot your weaknesses and fix them). If you're willing to put in the time and make the commitment then there is no reason you can't achieve a Q47+ using this program. I'm living proof. Good luck!
Verbal for Gmat is very different from the verbal on other exams such as GRE, CAT(Indian B-schools). Within the few months, I exhausted all the resources including Manhattan books, Official Guide. However, I was not able to reach a verbal score of even 30.
I had read reviews on the Gmat-club about E-Gmat verbal course, especially for non-native speakers. So for the final push in my verbal preparation I decided to purchase the verbal online course of E-Gmat.
Review of the Verbal Course->
Master comprehension-: 5/5
Sentence Correction:5/5
Reading comprehension:3/5
Critical Reasoning: Did not use.
The master comprehension section & Sentence Correction are stand-out among them as they focus on the very basics which are needed for cracking the Gmat.
I did not find RC material to be much helpful and did not have time for the CR material but have heard that it's also very Good.
Hello All,
I have been one of the many users of EGMAT course, who has been benefitted from this course as I have seen a drastic improvement in my accuracy.
The Verbal course structure is excellent. The videos lessons follow a structured approach to solve questions. It helped me find the mistakes and correct them without even looking at the choices.
The Quant section helped me brush up my basic knowledge with video explanations. It is very convenient and user-friendly because it is easy to track what you have learned. It tells how much time you have spent on each section.
My personal favourite section is the EGMAT's CR section. The pre-thinking method has helped me become better at solving even the toughest questions in less than 2 mins.
The Scholaranium covers a wide range of questions with detailed analysis that are must to do for the complete preparation of the GMAT.
Overall I would highly recommend this course to any aspirant. Looking forward to posting my final scores soon.
I started studying for the GMAT the beginning of April and after one and a half weeks of studying on my own I landed with a Quant score of Q35. Realizing I needed more structured learning, I found eGMAT's LivePrep Courses (both Quant and Verbal). Two and a half months later I ended up scoring Q50 on my official GMAT test.
Things I liked about the course:
- Cost friendly: After looking at a couple of prep courses, I found that the eGMAT courses to be the most cost friendly option. The cost didn't mean that quality was sacrificed either so I was pleasantly surprised.
- Video Format: I'm an audio visual learner myself which made the online video format of the course very helpful
- Structured: I wasn't very familiar with what topics would be tested on the GMAT and eGMAT provided a nice structured approach to all the topics I needed to learn. I don't think there was anything that eGMAT missed.
- Q&A Sections: Within their videos as well as in the answers to the practice questions, there's a Q&A section used by students and the eGMAT experts. This section was very helpful to me as often I had similar questions to those other students had posted
- Directed Practice Questions: eGMAT structured the OG practice questions during their practice modules so that they pertained to the particular topic you were learning.
The only thing I didn't find extremely necessary to me was the live sessions themselves (which is on top of the recorded video sessions). I didn't feel like I needed them and I was fine with just the videos myself. So if you don't find yourself needing a direct live session then you can also go for the Quant Online course that's offered by them.
Definitely recommend this prep course if you want to score high in Quant!
For those suffering with solidifying a good quant base, I'd recommend TTP. I mostly stayed true to the study plan they created and painstakingly took notes. There are roughly 22 topics with practice problems. Each chapter took about 2-3 hours to read and do all of the quizzes. The chapter quizzes and practice tests are extremely helpful in testing your understanding. They section questions by Easy, Medium, Hard - which is useful to determine how much time you should be spending on each question and if you've mastered the topic. I definitely would recommend to those of you who have time to dedicate to TTP!
Structure-
The course was very well structured and I primarily used it for SC. The 7 step approach to attack a SC problem was the highlight of it. I had never focused on meaning but after this course I have started to do so.
Impact-
My accuracy increased sharply from 75% to 90%+ in Verbal. I was able to even understand RCs and CRs better. The best part of this course is that it uses videos, so it's very easy to concentrate. I had the problem of losing focus while studying, but with e-GMAT videos I could focus easily and concentrate easily.
I would highly recommend this everyone looking to improve their Verbal skills.
I started my prep as a self-study. I choose Magoosh because of it's accessibility in price. I didn't want to shell out a massive amount of money for my course, and in that sense, Magoosh definitely met my needs, because I find it's one of the best value preps out there. I used Magoosh in the following capacities:
1) I was a strong Verbal student, so I went through maybe 25% of the verbal questions, and did not review all of Verbal videos, though they offer many. I did review the Sentence Correction Verbal videos, however, because that was an area of weakness for me. I found that reviewing those videos, paired with an intense study of the Verbal questions (Very Hard Questions) led to the strong score I received in Verbal.
2) I used it for Math review. I watched every single Magoosh math video, and did the questions related to it (From Easy --> Very Hard). At the time of my exam, I was getting every "Hard" question right.
Overall, I scored a 700, with a very high V score, and a low Q score. That leads me to believe that even though I devoted 80% of my time to Math, I wasn't able to reap the rewards I wanted. It's for this reason that, while I think Magoosh prepped me well, I encourage low quant people to look at courses aimed at improving Quant scores.
