I joined egmat for their course after a recommendation for Quant esp DS. The level of difficulty of the quant 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 DS section with their sessions. I would recommend it for all who have quant issues especially with DS. PS 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!

I stumbled upon the e-GMAT course in Sep'15. Being a non-native myself, I was intrigued by how a GMAT course could be designed to cater to the non-native speaker . I then proceeded to watch a webinar conducted by Rajat which was simple in tone yet insightful. There I knew I'd found what I’d been looking for .
I immediately enrolled in their flagship Verbal Live Prep course, needless to say, I was enamored with the course architecture and fascinated with the ease with which I could navigate the course platform. Each section is broken up by concept into sub-modules, each containing a mixture of quizzes and video lessons; all this in addition to the live webinars conducted by the e-GMAT faculty. The course content is lucid, exhaustive and is designed to enhance the conceptual understanding required to tackle GMAT questions. The faculty at e-GMAT is experienced and incredibly adept at explaining concepts and necessary to have a solid foundation- a firm grasp of the building blocks sets the tone for your progress over the duration of the course, and most notably your ability to solve the tougher (read ‘700-level’) problems on the GMAT.

Prior to starting the course I’d thought that CR was a beast that couldn’t be tamed, but as I watched along through the CR video lessons and attended live sessions conducted by Krishna Chaitanya I realized how easy to understand CR really was. e-GMAT deserves extra plaudits for coming up with the ‘Pre-thinking’ strategy for solving CR problems. It helped me answer CR questions, which I once absolutely dreaded, with new-found confidence and, dare I say it, like the section altogether.
I’d like to conclude my de-brief by saying a word about the fantastic quizzing platform that is e-GMAT’s ‘Scholaranium’. It’s a tool that I absolutely lived by during my preparation for the GMAT. It’s essentially a compendium of quizzes and statistical data indicating your areas of strength and weakness. It’s a treasure trove that’d better enable you to work on you weaknesses than would otherwise be possible and strategize your preparation for reaching your dream score. I’d totally recommend e-GMAT to someone who’s planning to take the GMAT.

I have taken Magoosh premium, the course including all videos, practice questions & tests is very good . The question are graded into difficulty level, it gives you feel of real gmat test. Video explanations are great. Magoosh support is really awesome and they reply to our queries promptly.all the apps like idiom flashcards and other resources are really helpful. Magoosh should introduce a discussion forum on their website for students to discuss the questions. Overall the quality of both verbal and math questions is really good, the video lessons are sufficient, tests are real gmat like. I feel that magoosh is a game changer in gmat preparation.

It was my 2nd attempt writing the GMAT test and I ended up scoring a 700 (Q49 V35). My previous score was 640 (Q49 V28). e-GMAT helped me make the big leap from V28 to V35 and I am grateful for that.

My experience with e-GMAT has been amazing. I enjoyed every second I spent learning with e-GMAT.

While preparing for the exam I realized that there are two crucial factors you need to keep in mind if you want to get a 700+ score on the GMAT:

1) It is imperative to get your basics and core concepts right. The videos and lessons at e-GMAT really helped me with this. They were comprehensive and very beneficial.

2) It is necessary to know the topics you are good at and the topics you need to improve in. e-GMAT Scholaranium helped me do that. It helped me identify my weak spots and ultimately improve them. This made the actual difference.

Being an engineering graduate i was comfortable with the QA part of the GMAT.I found VA very challenging.It's not that i had poor English but it's just the way the GMAT tests it.At first look you think that the English part is easy, but actually it'snot the case,especially for non native speakers.But the beauty of e-gmat's VERBAL ONLINE course is that its starts from basics,step by step it helps you to build the concept in a structured way.It presents the concepts(with examples) in a very simple form which makes it easy for a student to learn and assimilate.The evaluation through SCHOLARANIUM is outstanding:questions being neatly categorised based on the types.Also the explanations are comprehensive and clear.It does not only give you the solution but also give you the right approach for attempting a problem.
Final verdict :if you want a significant improvement in your verbal score but have limited time,this is the course to go for.

Score: From V30 to V40

This is one of the good courses e-gmat offers specially for those who faces issues with the basics in Quants. Basics are really important as it helps in identifying the problem and what it surrounds (specially in word problems section and other advanced topics like probability and permutations and combinations etc) and this course will start from the very start, it doesn't take the student for granted that you must know anything before joining this. The course structure is very organised which helps in building the concept gradually. After every topic, there is a test which tests your concepts and its really a confidence booster to see yourself solving the answers correctly provided you follow the strategy taught. This is a good course and definitely worth trying for those who face issues with quants. all the best!
