Value for money...great for beginners

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.

I am a non-native English speaker and this course stood out to me for several reasons:

-it broke down the concepts to easy manageable blocks for someone who is busy with a job and unavailable for the weekend live classes.

-I always wondered what the proper order to study the material. for my first attempt, I studied CR then SC and left RC until the end and was completely burned out by the time I reached RC. Result? 50th percentile for all SC,CR and RC

I only hoped that the example difficulty during the actual lessons progressed from easy to medium to hard. I think that most of the examples during the lessons are much, much easier than the practice at the end.

Overall, I highly recommend this course for anyone who is struggling the Verbal section but cannot commit at certain times.

I took the individual course of sentence correction in egmat and it worked wonders for me. Earlier i used to look at the sc question and use to select the choice that i felt right but after completing this course i got a completely different approach of handling the sentence correction question. egmat course makes available pre assessment quiz and post assessment quiz for each and every single topic. I have got a complete hold of grammar and sentence correction questions and i have seen improvement in my scores as well. I would recommend this course to all the students who want to improve their verbal scores

Neither would I say it is a great course nor would I say it's bad. It's okay okay types. In my opinion, every course teaches you something new that you didn't come across earlier. So, there were various things that I learnt from this one. Magoosh's math course is better than its verbal part. If you compare it with other courses, I would say e-gmat is a better choice since I got significant improvement from e-gmat & my score decreased with Magoosh. However, this doesn't mean magoosh is not a good one. Its just the individual preference. There are many people who find magoosh a good deal especially when you get such course at such a low price. For me, what I found very good in Magoosh is its math course at very competitive price with superb customer support. They provide money-back guarantee and when I didn't get any improvement, they were so quick to revert on that and returned the money as fast as they could. They even sent me an amazon gift card. So, all in all, I like their math offering with an awesome student support.

I'm a non native. My first Gmat test score was Q49, V23., I was terrible at Verbal. Therefore I was stuggling with SC ,RC and CR.Then I watched a session on sentence's meaning of e-GMAT. Then I purchased Egmat verbaI online Course.The concept given for SC and CR are very good . I learned though the course makes SC seem more easier task to handle, and the important thing is their approach gives me confidence to tackle SC and CR concepts are very helpful while tackling some Hard question.I scored 600 in gmat prep 1 ,690gmat prep 2,650 in manhattan prep free test and 710 in veritas free prep test .Although I performed badly on the D-Day.But I highly recommend this course for all those who are struggling with Concept of SC and RC .Concept given in the files may come handy in your preparation for gmat

Hi Guys,

I could achieve my target score i.e. 710 (q49,v38) on GMAT. I underwent Verbal online course at e-gmat. Needless to say it has really helped me my verbal score. The program really explains the concepts thoroughly and in a concise manner. After going through a concept file, you really come out with a wow. I would highly recommend this program if you intend to only focus on your verbal and I pretty sure e-gmat's other program are also as good.

Only suggetion to E-gmat is to make the program a bit more interactive. While I know the program provides good analysis on weak and good areas, it would be really helpful to get some qualitative insights in a short mail. For instance: "In the last 30 days you have completed so and so sections and we find that you continuously get these right and these wrong"

Final word: the 'scholaranium', the explanation to each and every question is A-class. Just to give you a bit of analysis: I gave a gmat prep just after completing concept section - i scored a 640. Then I took a month or two to complete scholaranium, my score straight away jumped away to 680/690.

Keep doing the good work guys.

My official score report will be out in 2/3 days. I will provide a snapshot soon.
