E-GMAT provides an excellent material to help students improve their GMAT score and I encourage students, especially non-natives to enroll in this course. Each of the parts in which the verbal course is divided (SC, CR and RC) consists on videos with detailed explanations of the main concepts followed by practical questions that help you to apply these fundamentals. The live sessions are a very useful resource to solidify these concepts.

The SC part is with no doubt the most complete resource I have found in the market. It helped me to understand the importance of the meaning set by the original sentence. This course not only shows you that an option is ambiguous but also explains you WHY (something that other resources in the market don´t do well). Being a non-native, not understanding this subtle concept was keeping me from reaching a top level on this section. In summary, this course goes beyond the typical "tricks" that are good for 600 level questions and makes you pay special attention to meaning.

The CR section is also great. It really helped me to understand the concept of assumption, something I was struggling with. It also helped me understand well cause & effect arguments. The collection of practice questions is really interesting.

As far as RC section, I was feeling very comfortable before taking the course and I did not review it with too much detail.

To sum up, this course is a MUST for non-natives that are struggling with certain aspects of verbal section. The online format is very dynamic and interactive and the content has a good balance of theory and practice. Also, the course explains clearly the key concepts needed to ace the GMAT.

This course is a very well organized and complete resource to improve your GMAT quant.

The course is divided in the following sections: 1) Number Properties, 2) Algebra, 3) Geometry, 4) Word Problems and 5) Advance topic.

As the Verb Course provided by E-GMAT, the Quant course consists on video lessons followed by practical quizzes. The first quiz on each section consists typically on low level questions that help you understand the basics. On the second quiz, the difficulty level of the questions increases progressively. One thing I like about it is that each question has a timer so you can see how long is taking you to solve different types of questions based on the difficulty level. The course provides step by step solutions of these practical questions as well as of the OG questions that are recommended at the end of each section. All the explanations are very clear.

Another important resource is the Scholaranium. It helps you polish your time management skills and it creates a personal databank that helps you identify your weaknesses.

In summary, I consider this course as an excellent resource: very good format (theory-practice-live sessions-Scholaranium), very detailed step by step concept and solutions and a very good structure of contents.

What I like about e-GMAT course.
1. It builds upon your current knowledge - There are preassessment tests. You'll know, which topics you're weak.
2. Scholorium - It has amazing charts that can pinpoint exactly what your strengths and what your weaknesses are.
3. Emphasis on meaning and pre-thinking - This has helped me big time in improving my Verbal score.
4.IR section - Though I did not spend a lot of time on this section, a couple of videos were enough to get me 6/8

What can be improved?
No personal guide or tutor. Though they have excellent videos prepared, I felt it was not enough. I always needed help with building a schedule, but they do not get involved with that.

Hi,

I wanted to review the Quant live prep course at egmat. I am using this in conjunction with the MGMAT guides, this course is super lucid and easy to understand.

Especially the number properties module is pretty good. I did not know that there are specific concepts such as in odd/even numbers that are very craftily tested i the GMAT.

The modules in Word Problem, Algebra, geometry were equally helpful to me. I used to review the videos in the evening after work, when reading through a book was especially tedious. The videos made it much easier to learn and retain the concepts.

I completely recommend this course to anyone looking to score well on the GMAT

Hi,

I have taken the GMAT about a year and half back and scored 630 overall, I think the split between QA and VA was 42 and 36 respectively if I remember correctly.

Life happened, and I got derailed on my plans for MBA. However I have again restarted my preparation. One thing I had to taken care was the fact my VA score was pretty low, and on analysis and my own instinct I knew this was more due to SC and RC than CR.

E gmat course is helping me to understand the SC and RC process, I did not have any formal english grammar education so trusted my ear more while solving SC questions during my last GMAT attempt and while I started my preparation again a month back. RC is more of a pain, as more often while going through the questions after reading the passage, I cannot even understand/remember which portions of the passage i should relook at. I end up reading the passage more than once, sometimes
three time, inevitably getting the answer wrong and losing precious time.

The egmat concept of meaning and pause while reading complicated SC and RC has definitely built up on my confidence. My accuracy has gone after completing about 50% of the course. My test date is on 2/15, so heres to hoping that I will do well.

I recommend egmat verbal course as i feel that most of us juggle a job, family and preparation for GMAT has to be optimized for maximum accuracy within a short time span and multiple commitments.

I started my prep by referring to books-Manhattan, Kaplan and more but realised soon that I am going all haywire in my approach. To structure it, I bought this course which after a promotional scheme, came at a very affordable cost. This is really a great course which has video based study modules dissected into different GMAT topics with videos ranging from 3-15 mins. It especially works well for people who are on the go and want to cramp up small study sessions basis the availability of time. You just have to be consistent and you can cover almost entire syllabus within a short period of time.
Quant section is extremely useful with focus being given on understanding the concept and not on just cramming some formulae or rote method of learning.
A word of caution here: this course alone will not take you to great heights of GMAT score. It's a really good course for beginners or for people who have no clue about where to start and are doing there prep all alone. By going through it, you will gain confidence which will allow you to attempt practice Qns from other sources/books and which is extremely important. Couple this course with some more additional resources and you'll be good to go.
Bottomline: Don't think much if you are just starting off...buy it and start learning from Day#1.

There were number of issues with the course - it might work for you, but it didn't work for me. I am a non-native Indian engineer and I was struggling in verbal section. After attending the "catchy" web session of Rajat and Payal, I bought Verbal online course. Even after going through all the chapters and quizzes, I was not able to crack SC questions from OG or GMAT Prep. The three step process was just a "process" with no content. What is the use of strategy, if there is no content?? Later, I bought RC course also, but again similar to their "three step SC process", e-GMAT categorized the RC wrong answers too - something like, "out of context"; "out of scope" etc... It didn't help much, as most of the time was getting waste in categorization only... Passage summary also doesn't help much, though e-GMAT asks you to use it a lot... I didn't improve my score - just wasted my precious time and money on it... I asked for the guaranteed refund also, but e-GMAT denied any refund, saying it is applicable only on "live" courses - well read the fine print and terms and conditions well before making a purchase...

The E-GMAT quant is a comprehensive course which again just like the verbal course teaches you right from the basics. I was really weak in Number Properties and certain topics of Algebra but this course has helped me with certain tips and tricks which help me reach the solution faster.

The solutions are very detailed and the approach used in DS questions in commendable. The DS approach helps you have a standardized way of approaching questions and also helps you already come closer to the answer before reading the statements.

The instructors are very active on the forums to help students. I would really recommend this course to anyone looking for a comprehensive quant course.

The E-GMAT verbal online course is the best fit for non natives. The most amazing part being that the course is very interactive and conducts several quizzes while teaching each concept to ensure the student has really understood everything right from the basic concepts to the approach clearly.

The SC course rightly helps you develop the mindset of giving utmost importance to the logical intended meaning by the author whereas the CR course imbibes in you the quality of prethinking. I believe these are significant aspects of the course which help you in significantly improving your course.

The E-GMAT team is also very focused on doubt solving, their instructors are constantly active on the different forums to help solve your doubts and queries.

I would highly recommend this course to any non native GMAT aspirant.

I am non native. My score in first practice test(GMAT Prep) is V31. I have come across E-gmat articles on GMAT club and attended some of their free sessions. I found their method to solve SC extremely useful. I decided to take up verbal online course. I like their focus on meaning and logic to solve SC questions rather than memorising set of rules. I was able to improve my accuracy in SC significantly by following E-GMAT approach with in short period of time. I was able to score V41 in my GMAT. I highly recommend E-gmat Verbal especially for SC.
