I have always been dreadful of numbers. When I first sat for my GMAT, I scored a shameful 39% in the quant section. I thought I would never be able to make it to anything better, ever!

Then, eGMAT came to me as a savior. The tricks I learnt from its Quant Scholaranium assisted me in solving the maths problems in a jiffy. The time taken to solve a specific math problem was trickled down from a sky-high 6 minutes to a meager 2 minutes.

Post a gruesome practice of the maths sections, I again took my GMAT exam. This time, my quant score lied in the 71%.

Being a non-native English speaker, I have always been dreadful of the verbal section of GMAT. Critical reasoning was never my forte and all the options of the sentence correction questions seemed incorrect to me!

Thanks to the verbal live classes and the verbal scholaranium of eGMAT, I could grab the complete thoughts behind each of the set problems. I learnt how to think logically with critical reasoning, eliminate strategically in the sentence correction problems, and go step-by-step while reading the comprehensions.

It wasn't easy, but it was never meant to be. Post a 2-month long journey, I experienced a 50-mark raise.

As a non-native, I was getting stuck with my verbal score all the time and failing to reach my target GMAT score. That is when I came across the e-GMAT Verbal Online course, a course specifically designed for the non-natives. The USP of the course is that - it is designed by non-natives for non-natives and hence understands the requirements and challenges of non-natives better than any other course. The course is beautifully structured and presented. I would also like to thank the instructers, especially Payal, for their relentless support. With e-GMAT by my side, I was able to increase my verbal score from V28 to V38 and score a 710 in my GMAT.

I started my prep by Manhattan series books. For a month, I had no clue what am I supposed to do with all this information. It was so frustrating that even after spending hours reading the book, i was not able to solve the questions properly. I mean, even if I could solve some of the questions, I wasn't confident enough.
Finally one fine day, I heard about e-GMAT from one of my colleague. After browsing through the site, I thought of attending one of the free webinar. It was so amazing, so interactive and the best part, none of the questions from the students were unanswered. I immediately enrolled and started my prep once again.
The most important thing that you get when you start the course is confidence. The courses are very structured. The 3 step approach is the main thing. If you make it a point to solve all the questions using this mantra, you can solve any question. I think this is the only course that actually offers a formula to solve RC questions.
Although I didn't score really good but that was majorly because of my quant score. I only studied for quant for a week and that too I didn't practice that well. But I had a 10 point improvement in Verbal. Overall, I think anyone who wants to write GMAT and is not really good at reading and comprehending, they should definitely try this course.

I heard about the course from one of my friends, and then tried its trial parts. E-gmat course offers something better for for the new learners. This course will help you build a comparatively strong base as every lesson it provides starts with a test and then share lesson with example, and at the end of the lesson every lesson again offers a test. Such a strategy is better for learning, but this course doesn't offer special anything for advance learners. Its questions are predictable, specially in CR and RC sections. Again, i recommend it for new learners who lack skills only in the sentence correction part. My ignorance might influence my opinion, so please try its trial version and then decide.

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.
