Course e-GMAT 6M Focus

Hi.. In my opinion, the e-gmat verbal is the most effective course out there. I had already taken my gmat and scored 620 with a V28 and knew I needed some help with the verbal section. That's when I chanced upon the e-gmat. I purchased the full course after attending a few of their free webinars and course material that's available when one signs up on it.
I must say that they have an incredibly structured course videos which strong emphasis on the concepts and providing pre and post ability quizzes for each topic.
There was another course material which I had referred which was purchased by my sister but the e-gmat concept files beat it in the manner the concepts are presented and the way application of the concepts is conveyed across.

I'd highly recommend the e-gmat to anyone who's either starting theit GMAT prep or is looking to improve their score.

Cheers!

Course Manhattan Prep GMAT On Demand

Location Online

Manhattan GMAT has long been regarded one of the best GMAT prep programs out there. The Interact product was a great way to get structured instruction and practice without spending the cash for the full classroom course.

I utilized the self study guides to practice the GMAT but hit a wall and was not able to improve my GMAT verbal score. The Interact product gave me the structured instruction along with guided practice that I needed to really grasp the materials. I completed the Interact verbal material within a week and noticed a 50 - 60 point improvement in my GMAT score. Although results may vary, I strongly believe that the Interact program can help students who are struggling on the self-study route.

A Best Structured Course

Hi all, Firstly i would like to thank "Team E GMAT" for their honest approach in designing the course. Its worth for Money & most importantly TIME. The quality of time the team has invested in designing the course can be truly felt, if prepared well & paid attention to.

I attended classes from 2 other institutes before approaching E GMAT. You really will notice a lot of difference in terms of approach & understanding questions. I really liked the way the course has been structured & helped me change the way i approached verbal questions.
SC Concepts were at its best, i never felt lost throughout the course & the detailed analysis presented for all the practice questions are really good.
Initial topics of Premise & Conclusion & Inference was really HELPFUL in solving assumption questions,which are in general considered to be difficult ones.
In all its the best course worth a try in terms of Time,learning & Money invested. Last but not the least i am giving my exam on this 23rd & i am confident at this point of time in getting a good score.

Course Magoosh Premium

Location Online

I signed up for Magoosh early in my GMAT Studies. And since I hadn't taken the test before starting with Magoosh, I can't say how much it improved my score. I will say however that it was a huge help.

Pros: I hadn't thought about math since graduating years ago and Magoosh was a perfect refresher. Mike Mcgarry did a great job explaining concepts. They provide really great information throughout their blog. The amazing video explanations at the end of each question was the highlight of the course.

The Cons: It's really easy to spend too much time watching the videos and too little time doing actual problems. The Timer function on the Magoosh Practice tests counted up instead of down (like the actual GMAT does) so that was confusing.
There are a lot of GMAT tricks/techniques that I didn't think Magoosh covered as well as they could have. I would have liked to have seen better analytics in their dashboard.

This provides a very well organized curriculum with concepts and quizzes for each question category and free mock exams that can generate performance analytical reports.
Also, it was kind enough to extend my course when I couldn't finish it in time. It is very precious!

Every explanation on this platform is easy to understand, so I could easily learn how to crack my weaknesses and enhance my strengths. Actually, solutions in CR several categories are very well systematic and if you master perspectives once, you will be able to tackle every questions in real tests.

Finally, thanks a millon for dedicating lecturers!!!

Course Magoosh Premium

Location Online

Magoosh is premium material at a very reasonable price. I was able to get up 80 points. Especially as a non-native speaker, I gained a lot from the verbal section. The practice test wasn't the best but is pretty solid and that's the only area where I'd say Magoosh can do much better. In summary, I am not sure what my preparation would have looked like and what my score card would have without Magoosh. Also, the study plans were pretty awesome. Magoosh personally helped me pick and follow the 3 month verbal study plan based on my history with the test.

Verbal Live Prep by eGMAT

Verbal Live Prep is one of the best tools available in the market for verbal preparation. Though, primarily it is designed for Non Native speakers but i believe it can be equally good even for the Native Speakers. GMAT is not a test of English but a test of reasoning. Verbal Live Prep course hits out in the very right directions. Neeti Sohal, in particular, was fabulastic with Critical Reasoning. I just loved the way she paced the course and was right on target for her entire sessions. For anyone looking for a good verbal score, I would highly recommend the verbal online or verbal live prep by eGMAT. 5/5 for the Verbal Live Prep :) and 5/5 for Neeti Sohal for her excellent teaching skills.

Course Magoosh Premium

Location Online

Magoosh's GMAT prep software is quite easy to use. The modules are very comprehensive and well laid out. The only problem with Magoosh is that the verbal section goes into in depth detail of grammar and the use of tenses etc. when you actually don't need that deep a level of understanding. It's a great starter to the GMAT prep journey but I wouldn't recommend it to push you into the deeper end of 700's. Use Magoosh in your early stages of preparation to familiarize with the various concepts of Math that are covered under GMAT and the types of grammar covered under the verbal section of GMAT.

Course Manhattan Prep Live Online

Instructor Mark Sullivan

I took the 9 week virtual Manhattan Prep GMAT Course. I knew that I needed the course to hold me accountable to my studying goals while working long hours at my job. The flexibility of a virtual course was also important to me. Mark was a fantastic instructor – he worked through practice problems by not only teaching us the fundamental techniques, but also discussing how the GMAT might distort similar problems. He made the courses very interactive – we never went more than 30 minutes without doing problem sets or other interactive activities during the sessions. We also spent time in every session talking about educated guessing strategies, which I could not have fully understood out of a book. Perhaps most importantly, he spend time clarifying a GMAT correct answer from our second choice answers. The fundamentals can come through practicing with the materials, but the ability to differentiate a “good” answer from the “right” answer comes a lot easier when you have a strong instructor who can help explain the difference. Highly recommend both Mark and Manhattan Prep!

The course content of e-gmat live prep is very detailed and comprehensive. Trust me you don't need anything else to ace verbal, provided you follow up the processes and the course structure religiously. I just used the course material, OG and Gmat prep tests for my preparations, nothing else. The meaning analysis in SC, Prethinking in CR and "how to do active reading" in RC will help tremendously. Their explanation of OG questions is very thorough and detailed. Apart from that, the scholaranium tool is extremely helpful for practice. It provides detailed analysis of all solutions and gives an insight into one's weaknesses in various areas. Their support staff and the tutors are extremely responsive and knowledgeable. The live sessions, which happen during weekends are awesome. The class videos and webinar sessions are very good in audio and video quality.
