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.

I am a non native speaker and had give my GMAT more than a year ago. So when i first started i was only getting used to the GMAT verbal sections. During my first try i got a V28 and i felt that i could improve my sentence correction if i change my understanding of the section.
After hearing a lot of positive reviews i opted for the e-gmat course and in that the sentence correction course helped clear my doubts in S-V agreement and many areas where improvement was needed.Now my sentence correction accuracy has improved to 90%.
Coming to Verbal Live Prep, discussing the questions at the same time helped to re-assure the method to do the questions correctly. You can also get your doubts clarified at the same time. I also like the fact that the instructors taking the session stay back for a few minutes after the session to answer our general GMAT queries.
Thank you e-gmat for a well structured verbal online course.

I subscribed to e-gmat after having scored 660 on my first attempt. I had attended a couple of webinars and was impressed by the content provided through e-books and ability quizzes. What really helps is that e-gmat doesn't give you any shortcuts - its just a clear focus on basics and a well structured content that goes a long way in consolidating the basics so that the ability for getting those higher level questions is enhanced. The clear sequence of content, starting with concept files to application quizzes and practice quizzes surely help clear key concepts before taking up the scholaranium (which in itself is a great resource) and OG questions. After using the course content I am about to embark on my second attempt and I am sure e-gmat will surely help me get to my target score.

All the Hype about e-GMAT's Verbal Online, especially Verbal Scholaranium is true.

It is indeed a very well structured course. The quizzes that follow the superbly broken down lesson videos provided a periodic assessment. And, once I finished SC and CR I could go to scholaranium and test my current levels. I could easily pin point my weak areas in Scholaranium and work on them and see my progress every day.

The level of the questions themselves are very thorough and slightly tougher than what one can expect on the real GMAT. During my exam I felt that I was in much better control of how the test progressed from start to finish whereas that was not the case in my 1st attempt. I entered the Verbal Section with a lot of confidence and improved my score from V29 to V31.

I highly recommend this course for aspiring GMAT takers. Oh, I almost forgot, did I say that I was a non-native? This was perfect for me and that's why I am still with e-GMAT for my Verbal Prep.

Magoosh videos are structured to give you a very good preliminary outline of the otherwise scattered GMAT curriculum. Mike is comprehensive in his approach towards explaining the quantitative and verbal concepts. The content for quantitative learners is as good as you’ll get on the street, verbal is par (slightly lower) than other content providers.

I particularly like their approach of addressing GMAT as a 'logic' test - hence very good for beginners. However, for practicing on an advanced level, one might need to look at other resources too. Overall, a good buy for someone who is starting out with their preparation.

Like many others when beginning their GMAT prep, I took a practice test to gauge my current ability. I got V42 and let’s just say a very low quant score. Understandably, I decided to focus all my effort on quant. At first, I was reluctant to buy any products because of all the free materials available online. I was quickly overwhelmed. I didn’t know where to begin. There was too much data for me to process from too many sources. Plus, I read that some of the free content may not even be GMAT relevant. So, I set out to find a product I could trust that would be my one-stop shop for GMAT prep. Lo and behold I discover e-GMAT’s free Number Properties webinar. I attended the webinar and liked it a lot. The instruction was clear and with plenty of insights. I thought I improved after that one session.

That prompted me to go for e-GMAT’s free trial, and my positive experience there led me to the full Quant Live Prep course. I’ll list out the things I like most about e-GMAT:
- The product is organized really well. It’s broken up into 5 broad areas (Number Properties, Algebra, Geometry, Word Problems, Advanced Topics), each of which contains all the lessons you need to become a master at the topic. Because of this, I didn’t spend time on creating a study plan. My plan was to just go through all the sections one by one, and re-evaluate after completion.
- Scholaranium is a great tool. It was super handy once I completed the course because it allowed me to target my weak areas and really iron out those remaining wrinkles.
- The audio-visual format of e-GMAT is a great complement to other resources you may be using (e.g. the OG). Research shows that learning via different mediums (e.g. textbook, lecture, discussion) is better for retention than learning via a single medium.
- And lastly, my questions would get a response within 24 hours.

Just to share my progress, I recently took e-GMAT’s proctored exam and scored in the Q49-51 range, which makes me hopeful for the real thing coming up in a month.
