I tried a bunch of free products from various sites before finally choosing Magoosh. I got it at a discount for $120. I was aware that their Verbal modules were probably not the best, but my main objective was to revise certain high school math topics I was rusty on.
Mike is a great teacher. He makes it a point to reiterate the important stuff several times and tells you which videos you can skip based on your prior knowledge. The Magoosh Help portal connects you to him and I was able to clear several doubts this way.
I didn't watch a lot of Verbal videos on the platform, so I'm probably not the best person to review them.
One thing that I didn't like about Magoosh was its mocks. The questions were picked directly from their practice question bank and the scoring didn't make sense to me.
Overall, Magoosh worked well for my needs because I just needed a recap. Their quant videos were the best part.
This course is everything you need to accomplish your GMAT goals. I would say the only thing that is tough is getting through a three hour online class in one sitting. If you see this as being a potential problem for you, don't panic - do these two things and you should be good: (1) pick a good time slot during the week that you will be able to consistently make and a time that you won't generally be extremely tired during (also, don't overthink this, you'll be fine if you are internally committed) and (2) pick a great teacher like Jamie that will make the three hour class as exciting as it is informative. Manhattan Prep actually allows you to test out teachers (the first session is free) which is great because it's is very important to like your teacher - nine 3-hour sessions lay ahead of you (but again, don't overthink it). Would I recommend this course, absolutely. The course material is great and does a good job of steering you toward what you need to focus on.
Thorough and lively course designed for non-native English speakers. This course will guide you through your weaknesses and provided you with feed back at each step of learning.
These feedback help you focus on your strengths and weaknesses. The presentation videos are detailed and easy to understand. Make sure not to move ahead in hurry with a aim to finish the course in minimum time, rather ensure detailed analysis and move when you feel comfortable with the topic discussed. Keep reviewing your progress through Scholaranium software, which provides you with GMAT like questions with in-depth explanations. Overall, a good place to invest for improvement in GMAT SC.
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
After a totally disappointing result in my first GMAT (470 with 17V and 39Q) I decided to get an online course which gives me a good overview of the verbal section in the GMAT. The e-GMAT Verbal Online course was a great helop to do so. My improvement was not that much, but thats because I wasn't able to finish the complete course due to personal issues.
At the beginning the indian accent was not easy to understand but after the first videos this was no problem anymore.
If you want to ace the verbal section and get good summaries I totally recommend the e-GMAT Verbal online course!
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.
