The course is very well structured. You see your progresses, have intermediate questions to see if you have absorbed what you have studied, and also has every section organised by topic so that you can easily access the resource you are looking for.
It certainly requires concentration and planning, but it's full of resources that will certainly help you score a better score.
My advice is to start as soon as possible and to follow the structure as much as you can. If you fell comfortable with a certain topic, then it makes to skip some section but be sure you are not missing details that can help you save a lot of time during the exam.

Being a non-native English speaker, I found hard to improve the verbal part with the traditional books and resources. What I found really great about this course is that it really helps you understand the things you have to look at in order to answer correctly. After the course, you realise that it's not how you speak English but how you scan the sentence or passage.
Compared to other resources, it brings you step by step through the different cases and you gradually and naturally become ready to understand how the test builders think.
Highly recommended, in particular for sentence correction and critical reasoning and especially for non natives in English

I have taken the e-GMAT course twice and I am going to take the course once again. I have decided that this will be last time I will be taking the GMAT,so want to be sure that I will be using all approriate and useful resources. I have highlighted the things I like and dislike about the course. Please keep in mind this is only my opinion.

Strengths
Without a doubt the SC part of the course. I have found this the best part about the course. The course proceeds by analysing the meaning of every sentence,although I would say focus on grammar too,but for most sentences you will find meaning trumps everything and grammar becomes a subset of it.

The RC technique is very practical,but please keep in mind that you have to apply these techniques. You may learn the theory here,but I would say practice and practice.

I like the CR pre-thinking part that they teach,but again CR has to do a lot with practicing in the right way,otherwise this will kill your time. Try to learn the pre-thinking part from the course.

Things I didnt like

The Interface for sure- I took this course earlier when they had the older interface. I found it simpler and easy to use. I am in India and the net is not that fast,I get tired of sometimes seeing the circle going round and round before the page finally loads.

SC will trump everything else in the course. Rest is good practice.

I joined egmat for their course after a recommendation for verbal esp RC, SC. The level of difficulty of the verbal question is notch higher than GMAT. The approach taught and pratice has helped me to avoid all my silly mistakes. I feel much relieved after practicing and applying strategies from the live prep sessions. Now, I am getting confidence in my SC, RC section with their sessions. I would recommend it for all who have verbal issues especially with SC, RC. CR is also very good. And practice from the sessions helps gain mastery over the topic. I am very happy with my choice.

I found that self study was the most effective use of my time given limited time to study, so I stopped attending the online classes after a few classes. The only reason I purchased online courses was that my employer sponsored the purchase.
However, there are pros and cons to the classes, the pros being especially relevant if you have ample time and financial resources to spend on maximizing your GMAT score.

Pros:
1. You learn different methods of approaching quant problems from peers. Some of the students in the classrooms occasionally had very creative shortcuts to approaching a quant problem, which I would not have otherwise known to take because they were not the approaches Manhattan GMAT taught.
2. You can ask submit questions and get them answered immediately.
3. You are given a set schedule for class and therefore more incentivized to study.
4. It is a virtual classroom, so you can do the dishes or fold laundry on the side if the concept being explained is already familiar to you.
5. The teachers are actually GMAT rockstars.

Cons:
1. Proficiency levels of students in the same virtual classroom are different, so the teacher may spend a lot of time explaining concepts you already know.
2. You are not actually spending the 2 hours (or however long each session is) practicing the GMAT. If each class is 2 hours, you could have finished more than half an entire practice GMAT in the same amount of time.
3. Most if not all of the concepts/strategies taught in the course are already covered in the Manhattan GMAT prep books.

E-Gmat verbal online course is one of the best Verbal courses for GMAT preparation. The course is designed in such a manner that it becomes very simple even for a beginner. Being a non-native I was very skeptical about which course to choose. I immediately enrolled for the course after I attended a webinar by Payal on how to solve CR questions.

The course starts with basics and moves to advanced levels step by step. The best part about the e-gmat verbal course is that they avoid usage of difficult English jargon and emphasize more on usage and how a particular concept could be twisted to create errors. This helps to focus on the actual things rather than be lost in the difficult terminology.

All in all, I am glad to have chosen e-gmat online course for GMAT preparation and have been greatly benefited by it so far.

After studying for GMAT, I realized that everything that I had learned at school was incomplete and I was really struggling to get better. I was repeating the same mistake every time since I was way behind in basics.
E-gmat provides great tools for understanding. Their material is in very simple and explanatory terms and is full of examles. I enjoy studying at e-gmat and it also provides great practice. I am retaking gmat for improving verbal score and am looking forward to e-gmat courses. the questions in scholarinium are great practice material and best of all they are well explained.

I took the eGMAT verbal online course mainly because I love their user interface, and the fact that you can create mini-quizzes to test yourself. Add on to that superior analytics which help you to identify areas which you need to work on.

They have a huge question bank of GMAT style CR and SC questions to practice on, which helped me to prepare for all areas of the verbal section. The answer solutions are very well
explained, which is crucial when it comes to the Verbal section, because sometimes the right answer is only slightly different from the others. In addition, the video tutorials are really helpful in explaining and clarifying confusing concepts.

Highly recommended!
