Being a non native English speaker, I had a bit of trouble doing SC questions. Then I found out about e-gmat through gmatclub and read the reviews. Seeing many positive reviews, I decided to take the package for sc. Now I can clearly say that I don’t regret y decisions. E-gmat SC course was very clear, I had learned all the concepts easily. Though my verbal score is less, I am pretty sure with a bit of practice and the concepts I learned from egmat will help me achieve a good score. I sincerely thank egmat for this wonderful package

MGMAT's Online Course with Josh Braslow is the way to go

Course Manhattan Prep Live Online

Instructor Josh Braslow

Location Online

I'd highly recommend Manhattan Prep, and specifically Josh Braslow as an instructor. When I was initially looking up who to take the course with, there were many highly rated instructors. Josh's name obviously came up, given how long he's been at MGMAT and his consistently strong track record. Despite the fact that there were some younger instructors who were highly rated, I figured that Josh's experience with the test for many years would be helpful. And boy, was I right! Josh really understands the test inside out, and will help you understand how the test writers think about questions. This goes a long way in terms of understanding guessing and elimination strategies. Josh also has a great sense of humor, which make the classes very enjoyable - making it a lot easier to sit through classes starting at 7am!

I also had a post-course assessment with Josh, which I would HIGHLY recommend signing up for ASAP after the course ends, provided that you were able to keep up with all the classroom requirements. I had one month between when the class ended and when I was taking my exam, and spending about 45 minutes with Josh on the phone really helped me develop a plan to elevate my performance in the last 4 weeks before my exam. We analyzed my prior performances on practice exams, focused on key areas, and made sure I was spending my last few weeks efficiently.

The first time I looked at anything GMAT-related was in February 2017. I improved 140 points from my first practice test in February 2017 (620) to my actual test in May 2017 (760) - all in the span of 3 months

It's not about working hard and doing as many practice questions / tests as you physically can, it's about working smart and using your time efficiently. Josh and MGMAT do a fantastic job of reinforcing these principles.

Hi Everyone,
First my background:
I am an indian male with not IT background. As all Non native speakers, i lack skills in Verbal, and there fore it became necessary for me to make up majority of my score by boosting the Quant score.
Prep details:
I went though all the OG questions which one cannot compete in quality and as recommended by most Manhattan Quant guides but i still find my confidence lacking to reach the Q 50/51 highs.

Going though various reviews and bringing my over confidence down i decided to go through a structured course which will boost my confidence to achieve the 49-51 range.

I came across e-gmat quant course after reading various positive reviews on different GMAT Prep forums. First of all i was amazed to see the structure of the course which was very handy and easy to go through. You learn concepts then apply quizzes and later Application test and final ability quizzes. You get no reason in egmat course to not master in every single topic tested in the GMAT.
The live sessions with Rajat, Payal and Krishna were not less than an eye opener. i love the new techniques they taught like : analyzing and breaking down the DS question prior to reaching the options, number properties questions were never so easy to solve with the e-gmat techniques and algebra which has always been a night mare for me, I learnt the importance of bringing all the expressions in the left side of the inequality before breaking them down. This has left me stunned because i never messed up with the +_ signs after applying e-gmat principles in algebra. Also the graphical representation of the equations to solve for x is something i never knew.
I have improved already from Q46 to Q49 in my last GMAT exam and now i am preparing again to score Q50-51 in my next attempt.

This time i am focusing on the Quant scholaranium . This is the Custom test platform by egmat where one can select questions of different topics, different difficulty levels and adjust timings. As a result you also get detailed analysis of the timing and your performance and obviously the question explanations. A question bank of 700+ all level and topic questions is grooming my prep further and finally i feel that i can achieve my target score of Q50-51.

I would definitely recommend this course to all GMAT aspirants .

The e-gmat sentence correction course is really good. It helps you a lot. The course is designed in a way that guides you step by step till you become a pro. It is a must for everyone who is struggling in sentence correction problems. The videos are short and crisp. The videos won't overload you with stuff, you need not know. I would recommend this course to everyone. It surely is the best available course in the market. It helped me to improve my score. My score increased 80 points after subscribing the e-gmat sentence correction course. Great work by e-gmat team.

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%. Thank you e-gmat for a well structured SC online course.

I started my GMAT prep, as many people do, with no clue on how to fix sentences or how to read passages properly. After only a few weeks of study I was able to improve my score by over a 100 points. Just to put things into perspective, I was scoring in 400s and 500s in the couple of months of my study. I went through other courses tutorials, although they were helpful in Quant the verbal sections were no match for the E-Gmat's verbal section. I wish I had started my study with E-Gmat since i wasted a lot of money on other courses and books that didn't teach me much. My only regret right now is that I wish I had used E-Gmat quant as well because their course is just excellent. I have read many of Payal's posts on verbal and quant topics and the posts are amazing, filled with tidbits of knowledge.

I highly recommend this course to students who are looking to improve their verbal and quant skills. Especially if you are a non-native speaker then don't waste any time looking at other courses. I improved from V20 (my initial mock) to V38 in a quick few months of study. After only about 4-6 weeks of study, I never scored below V35 in any of my mocks.

SC was my weakest section, I had absolutely no clue on how to begin correcting a sentence. I went though the first module which taught me what a clause is, what a phrase is and what role conjunctions play in a sentence. What is a run-on sentence and how to spot structural issues in 5 seconds. Then from there, i was able to learn step by step how to spot SV errors, Parallelism errors, Modifier errors, comparison errors and few remaining minor SC topics.

I am now getting 85%-90% of SC questions correct and am very confident in my ability. So I want to thank e-Gmat for their amazing course. Thank you Rajat, Payal and other members of E-GMAT for everything.

How e-gmat got me my dream verbal score

I had given my first attempt of GMAT late last year and had scored a 650(V40 , Q40)

When i started out prepping for GMAT my verbal score was at about V31. I then signed up for E-gmat and it was the only source i reffered to for working on the verbal skills.

The Section wise video tutorials are very well structured to help non native speakers especially.
I had thoroughly gone through those and then would practice diligently on the scholaranium everyday.
Noting errors in the scholaranium and then going back to video concepts whereever you notice a gap in concept i think is a good way to keep going and improving.
You also have features to bookmark and marked as guessed for questions that helps you come back to them.
the scholaranium gives you an complete analysis with breaking down topic wise weak areas for you to then work over.
I think overall the e-gmat is a great course to help with the Verbal section of GMAT.

After stupidly wasting my time by trying to use/learn from various resources for verbal, I knew that I needed a change. My main weakness was SC section so I needed a really high-quality resource that would prepare me well. I switched my focus and decided to focus on one resource per part at maximum. After a lot of researching and reading I decided to go for e-GMAT with my SC prep. I read a lot of positive reviews about e-GMAT and hoped that they could deliver.
It was a great decision, which improved my Verbal score significantly. I can only praise and recommend e-GMAT for the Verbal preparation part of the GMAT. You won't regret it!

I would definitely not recommend this course to anyone. There is no way to clear your doubts and the videos are intuitive. I had so many doubts after going though the videos and there was no one to clear those. I did not see any improvement in my score. I got an additional one month online access for free but that was of no use. The support from the course tutor and the customer service was negligible and when I took the course I was assured of many services which later on I did not receive at all. Please do not take this course if you do not want to waste your money.
