I would highly recommend using E GMAT in addition to the standard open source resources such as GMAT Official Guide and the GMAT club platform. E GMAT made a huge difference in my SC prep. After a certain point, GMAT tests you by asking if you can bend certain rules and evaluate trade-offs between ambiguity and grammar. E GMAT does a good job of showing the user these type of questions so they understand the importance of not eliminating certain options immediately because of basic grammar rules. (ambiguity in meaning is the ultimate test in the SC section of Verbal)

I turned to Harry thorough GMAT Ninja after two poor GMAT results following my taking courses from Princeton Review and Target Test Prep. I was struggling from inconsistencies between my official practice tests and the actual GMAT and didn't have a clear path forward. I turned to GMAT tutoring for help knowing that I needed a great GMAT score to get into my target schools.

I initially reached out to GMAT Ninja because I was familiar with their Youtube channel. After watching several of their videos, their approach to GMAT problem solving resonated with me(I found the characteristics that I valued from their Youtube videos certainly carried over into our tutoring sessions). After several emails back and forth with Charles I decided to partner with Harry and give the GMAT another attempt.

Harry immediately set about rebuilding my foundational approach to the GMAT for both Quant and Verbal. This meant eliminating careless errors and easy mistakes that were handicapping me on easy/medium questions. We then focused on getting my timing to be consistent by implementing various techniques and strategies that I didn’t have from my other preparation courses. Lastly we focused on refining problem solving strategies and reviewing mistakes on the harder problems.

In addition to Harry being a phenomenal instructor, here are some other things that stand out. Harry sets a learning environment- I always felt like I could make mistakes without judgement. Harry gives you honest feedback. Overall, Harry is a phenomenal instructor who helped me develop the skills and confidence needed to obtain my 720. My only regret is that I didn’t make the decision to partner with him sooner.

My journey to 700 is a story of consistency. I started my preparations in late 2022 from e-gmat. Being a non-native English speaker, I was naturally weak in English. However, the best parts of e-gmat were the quality of the verbal section and how it taught me from the basics.

Although the initial learning process was smooth, I wasn't able to perform well in my section exams. That's when the team e-gmat voluntarily enrolled me in its online 360 program and assigned me Akash Aggarwalm as the mentor. Akash helped me in three areas:
1) Identifying my fundamental weakness in each sub-section
2) Create customized tests for me to improve on the weak areas
3) Create a pre and post mock test strategy to get e ready for the exam day

I would suggest the GMAT aspirants to try the e-gmat online course as the quality of the content and their mentors is unparalleled in the industry. Also, just believe in yourself and go an extra mile to realise your dreams.

After getting a 680 on my initial GMAT attempt, I had mixed feelings as the score was at the average mark. I knew that to improve my score, I had to work on my weaker areas. After having read multiple reviews on GMAT forums, I decided to opt for e-GMAT. The AI-based course helped me accurately identify my shortcomings. Focused prep in these areas, helped me strengthen the concepts, building a strong foundation. The last mile push, courtesy of Sigma-x mocks, coupled with the timely support from the e-GMAT mentors, ensured that I was test-ready, with me scoring 730 on the test day.

So as the title suggests, yesterday I scored a 770 overall (51 Quant and 44 Verbal) after prepping for 120 hours. I started prepping last October (pretty late for B School applications) and went on reddit to see what resources successful people had used. I saw several posts of scores in the 760-790 range from people using Target Test Prep, and thought “good enough for me”.

I started and quickly learned an essential truth: knowing the material isn’t enough. Everyone on this site is smart enough that, given 10 minutes per question, you could probably solve the problem. You have 2 minutes instead, 30 questions in a row. You need to have strategies for each of these questions. You need to drill these questions and your weak areas consistently. I’m convinced that I wouldn’t have scored anywhere nearly as well with a live course or a book, because where TTP really worked best was the strategy guides for specific problems and the additional bells and whistles to ingrain the strategy into your head.

When you first start, the site will auto generate a calendar with “To Dos” based off your preferences. I didn’t always follow this calendar, but it was really helpful to have a baseline of “this is where I should be at right now” or “I need this many tasks done today (even if they’re not the recommended tasks)”. After most individual lessons (about a page) there is a mini 3-8 question comprehension quiz to test how well you really get what you’re reading as well as a couple sample questions. The best part about these questions is right away you get the answer and detailed explanations for each choice. I don’t have to flip to the back of the book every single time like I did with my ACT study guide, and I don’t have to listen to a lecturer waste my time explaining why a certain choice was wrong when it was obvious to me. 120 hours of active study time is a lot, and staying engaged during that time is important. There’s no question I was maximizing the amount of learning I was doing in my limited time.

The custom test generator was one of the best features for me. You can make custom exams of any length, with any combination of chapter material in difficulty. If I wanted to drill hard Geometry questions and easy + medium Parallelism questions, I could do that. There is a LOT more, but those were the features I found myself appreciating the most. Features like error trackers and flash cards I probably would have used more but honestly I got a score I was happy with a lot sooner than I was expecting.

3 days ago I took my only practice exam and scored a 770 (50 Quant, 45 Verbal), took a last minute tutoring session on Quantitative through TTP, and scored a 770 on the official exam yesterday. The tutoring session was particularly helpful because the practice tests don’t give an answer breakdown like TTP does, and my tutor quickly got me up to speed on the questions I missed. He also had similar questions on deck to solidify my understanding of those types of problems.

I can’t imagine doing another course, book, class, etc. and achieving better results, especially in that amount of time. I highly recommend Target Test Prep, and you can try it out for $1 to see if that format is right for you.

I was not paid to write this, I’m just very satisfied with my experience and results and was encouraged to post about my experience here.

This course is really solid and worth the money. It covers a ton of topics with plenty of materials. The explanations are clear and make things easy to understand. Further, it covers a lot of great tips and tricks, meaning that you won't need any other materials (except for official mock exams) to study for your GMAT. The tool allows you to pick a score range you want to achieve and the automatically created schedule is contains everything you need to know. It's a good deal if you're looking for a course that's informative without being over-the-top.

I can definitely recommend it!

e-gmat helped me to develop my verbal skills, I saw a marked improvement in verbal score from V28 to V38 after I used e-gmat, this also helped me to improve the overall score from 640 to 700. The practice test (Scholarium) were very helpful and it helped me to understand the mistakes I was making. The analysis provided helped me to increase my accuracy. Besides, the mock test were aligned with GMAT test, and my final GMAT score was very close to the marks i got in my last 3 mocks. The quants section was also up to the mark , though i would say it was on the tougher side than actual test. At the end i believe e-gmat has the best content for serous GMAT takers.

I was using myriad other programs before being connected to Rashmi at eGMAT. The difference between these platforms and eGMAT was the 1) tailored approach and 2) unlimited number of resources across Scholarium, module and articles database for questions / concept clearing. Also, the coach (Rashmi) was there every step of the way as a guiding light. I think eGMAT has figured out the right approach – 1) basics, 2) cementing the foundation and 3) testing to master comprehension in both Quant and Verbal. Especially in Verbal, the meaning-based approach & pre-thinking reading strategies, which are key to doing well in this section, are taught really well. eGMAT’s platform smartly uses AI to analyze and surface gaps in your knowledge so you always know where you should be paying more attention. The support via email & forum discussions is top-notch and very responsive. The current turnaround time is less than 24 hours.

Hello everyone,
I gave my GMAT 1st attempt during August'2023, scored a mere 600 (Q47,V27). I was not happy with the score.
I took a few days break after the exam, during this period I introspected on my strengths and weaknesses, my study pattern etc. and I realized I need help for verbal section, and after some searching I decided to go with eGMAT . I liked the Personalized Study Plan (PSP) approach, the PSP helped by breaking down the entire preparation schedule with respect to my target score and current score.
I started with SC and completed the courses end to end. By the time I was done 50% of the course I could already feel improvement in understanding of the SC questions.
The approach of breaking down a question in segments was especially helpful to understand the intended meaning.
Through the concept quizzes and practice quizzes, ideas were reinforced and areas of conceptual gaps were identified and subsequently worked upon.
Then I went for the cementing quizzes and even though initially I did not achieve the target score but eventually I did by following the process.
Post completion of the Cementing quizzes I moved on to OG questions. I solved close to 80-100 questions only this time but I did detail analysis of each question of where I went right and wrong or took more time.
In November I took another shot at GMAT and time I scored 700 (Q48,V37). Verbal score improved by 10 points.
Being a working professional, I did not had enough time to cover the CR and RC sections. But I recommend fellow students to go through the master comprehension section, this will set up the base if you are weak in verbal. Also SC being a foundation section the improved ability in SC helped me decipher CR questions much faster, which in turn helped me to logically deconstruct RC passages.
Overall eGMAT module helped me to
1. Build a solid conceptual foundation and take right approach to GMAT.
2. Schedule the daily study time with its time tracker
3. Pin point areas of strengths and weaknesses with its AI enabled dashboards
Thanks and I wish all the aspirants Good Luck!

Alex was a phenomenal tutor. And without his help, I do not think I would have been able to achieve my score goal. Alex brings a great blend of motivation and insight into the tutoring process and identifies the issues holding you back from achieving your score goal. Alex's temperament is also unmatched, he is one of if not the most patient people let alone tutors I have met, he allows you to think about why your process may or may not be working and in this introspection is where I seemed to make the most gains in progress toward my score. If anyone I knew was struggling with the GMAT, I would immediately point them in the direction of GMAT Ninja and Alex when looking for an effective and honest tutoring service.
