When I started my journey of the GMAT, the biggest challenge for me was the verbal section. I searched for various courses online and decided to enroll in E-GMAT program.

I scored 730 (Q49 V 39) and the whole credit goes to the well-structured program of E-GMAT.
The program teaches me how to get the meaning out of any complex sentence. The meaning-based approach is key to score 700+ score on GMAT.
Some salient features of the course is Meaning based approach & Strategic review that helped me improve all sub-sections of Verbal.
I was confident to tackle any difficult question after the program. E-GMAT mocks are comparable to actual exam in terms of difficulty level.
If the student is already good in quant then PACE feature will also help the student to improve quant in minimum time.

Hi pratulsinghal,

Congratulations on your 730 score! The mammoth 120-point improvement is highly commendable.  

Your perseverance is the most important factor that helped you excel; I must appreciate you for completing the course diligently and with the right spirit, which helped you attain the 96th percentile (730) on the GMAT.

You successfully internalized the meaning-based approach, which helped you get to a V39 (88%ile). Your diligence in imbibing the process and approach can be seen in your scholaranium stats, here is an image that you can refer to where you have improved to the 85%ile ability in Hard questions in RC.

I love the fact that you enjoyed PACE and that it helped you save time on the Quant side of preparations

Your journey is a great example to justify, I quote, “When you trust the process, you learn. When you learn, you score well. When you score well, you succeed! “

I wish you all the best for the next steps.  

Regards,  
Abha

Course Target Test Prep Flexible Prep

Target Test Prep is an excellent GMAT course. The course is well suited for students at all levels of GMAT scores. The Target Test Prep course carefully analyses a student's strengths and weaknesses and designs the course accordingly. The course has a nuanced set of Quantitative Reasoning lessons and tests. It also includes a wide variety of topics and types of lessons and questions found in the Verbal Reasoning section.
None of the courses are perfect, but I feel that Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam. I think this is the best characteristic of the Target Test Prep course. Also, the course is reasonable in terms of price. I will highly recommend Target Test Prep for all kinds of GMAT aspirants.

I came across the e-GMAT course through the reviews on the GMAT club and decided to give it a shot. The course was so well-structured and comprehensive that it helped me finish my prep in a little over two months and helped me score a 720 on the first attempt.
I started at a low score (around the 60th percentile) in the quant section. The quant course was so helpful, especially the PACE engine, that quickly helped me identify my weak areas and recommend steps to study, thereby saving a lot of time. I never thought that I would finish my quant prep within a month. The quality of the questions was impeccable; they were a close representation of the actual questions in the exam.
The best part of e-GMAT's verbal section is its SC course. I was introduced to the meaning-based approach, which transformed my SC score. I usually used the elimination technique to differentiate and eliminate a few options, but I quickly realised that it only works on medium-level questions. You must know the meaning-based approach and specific grammar rules to ace hard-level questions. And the course was beneficial in this. The RC reading strategies also helped me significantly reduce my time in reading the passages.
The structured three-stage learning provided by the course and the fantastic guidance by the mentors were a great help as I just had to follow the personalised plan for me. This helped me save a lot of time and put my entire focus on studying rather than planning.
Overall, I would recommend the e-GMAT course to anyone aspiring to score high by understanding concepts and working hard in an efficient manner.

Course Target Test Prep Flexible Prep

Location Online

I had started my test prep with other books and found myself having to google concepts separately to fully understand them. As a result, I decided to give the TTP free trial a shot and see how those concepts were explained there. After spending about 10 minutes on the rate, time, distance lessons, it seemed like a no brainer that I had to switch my preparation to TTP. The course is so comprehensive, but the lessons feel very approachable and slowly build on one another so that it feels effortless to master tougher quant concepts.

I know TTP highly recommends following the study plan exactly, and I think if I had done so I would have achieved a higher quant score. I used the flexible plan to go through the lessons on TTP quant and did a few chapter tests in weak areas. Even just doing this though, I feel like I got a lot more return on my investment than I would have got by studying from a book. So if you're intimidated by the time commitment of TTP, I would highly recommend the flexible plan to go through lessons and examples (it's way superior to what you will find in a comparably priced book). The option to ask questions is also fantastic. Jeff answered 2 of my questions on concepts very promptly and gave great explanations.

Finally, I did not use TTP verbal much because I had a decent baseline score, but I came across a few points that Marty emphasized which really stuck with me and boosted my verbal score beyond 40. For example, TTP made me realize that pre thinking in CR does always not work and can waste your time.

I started out my GMAT journey with E-Gmat and I have no regrets looking back , Quant was a Killer , It so happened that after using e-gmat's quant course I was able to finish my Quant section 15 mins ahead of time with desired accuracy

I have poor test taking skills - Even though I was able to crack on mock tests with higher GMAT score , Panic on the day bought my scores down - Ended up with 710 . For Non native speakers Verbal SC course is very good .

Would like to thank all the mentors in e-gmat who were part of my journey

TTP is a great program if you use it correctly. It is easy to use, has helpful advice in its Strategy chapter, highlights the strongest and weakest chapters, has customizable tests, has clear and detailed explanations, you can set your study program to your target score, and everything else you need to prepare for the test. It will require a lot of hours if you want to do the complete course, but has an accelerated plan that might help under certain circumstances. I did not use any other materials besides TTP and the two free official practice exams. I would definitely recommend TTP!

Course e-GMAT Online Intensive

Location Online

I started my GMAT preparation with e-GMAT on March 2021. Prior to that, I bought the OG and practiced the questions directly, and subsequently gave an official mock test where I scored only 660. I felt that I lacked structural preparation, especially in Verbal section. I researched a few courses, and found that e-GMAT was more structured and more pocket friendly than other courses .


I started with quant section, which was pretty good. I went through the course in quick time, and cementing quizzes helped me brush up my concepts. The way to solve the DS questions was especially noteworthy, as I never had previously solved those questions with such ease.

Coming to verbal, the introductory module about the sentence comprehension was really helpful. The SC module was also excellent. A new meaning based approach was introduced, and the specific way to solve GMAT SC questions by dividing sentences into chunks was really helpful.
I thought that as I solved RC before in my school days, it would be a little easy to me.

However in CR, I was completely faltering in pre-thinking, and drawing inferences from each sentence of argument. Somehow, I went through the section with a half baked knowledge, and really could not understand the explanation given at that time. I somehow completed that section in haste and then went for test readiness at which point I contacted the e-GMAT customer care. They assigned Kanupriya Maam as my mentor. She designed a strategy plan, in which I failed to cross the benchmarks in CR and RC(specially in humanities and Finance passages). I was frustrated and solved a lot of questions from RC and CR, exhausting the Scholaranium Question Bank, but I could not cross the benchmark.

I reverted back to Kanupriya Maam, and she helped me to pre-think properly, and draw inferences, through a zoom video session. She also helped with RC passages which I was not solving properly by sending a prerecorded video where she showed how to draw inferences and summarize the passages in proper way. After that, she again devised a new plan, and I went through it, but this time I was failed badly in SC and RC. This time, I knew that I was going wrong in not maintaining the error log, the most important thing in learning process. Also the analytics showed that fixation on wrong questions took a lot of time. I felt that SC is my strong suit , and that I need to strengthen it more. So I started going back to previous incorrect questions in SC and took a manual error log (not recommended, instead should do with each cementing quiz as discussed in CQ video). I found the modules in which I made the most mistakes, and started working on them.

I started giving mocks there after with this strategy and the scores increased by 20 points each time, which increased my confidence. I saw that the remaining time counter really had a positive effect on me (due to not fixating on CR questions, and drawing the inferences correctly,). The Subsequently, I booked my GMAT date and went for the exam and achieved my target score.

Overall, the e-GMAT is a very wonderfully structured program, and the Scholaranium Analytics and the personalized mentors (Kanupriya Maam in my case) are some the best features it offers to which I am grateful. I surely recommend this for online GMAT preparation.

Course Target Test Prep Maximum Learning

Location Online

If you are looking for a course to study for the GMAT, I would recommend TTP without a doubt. One of the main things I've learned is that the GMAT is an exam that tests how much work you have put in. TTP has a great interface that maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. I would recommend switching to the calendar view and following the course as it is laid out. I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course (it will take time/hard-work) you will get an amazing score.

One last thing to keep in mind: they have a great and responsive team willing to answer any question you might have about the course/exam/a question/etc.

Thank you TTP!

I took the 9-week Manhattan Prep course with Dave, and in addition to his top notch teaching, the class environment he fostered also made the time more enjoyable. Overall, Manhattan Prep's UI was very good and the strategy guides were as well. I had never taken the GMAT before and no familiarity with test, and scored in the high 500s on my first Manhattan Prep CAT. After the class, which was a great foundational intro, I began tutoring with Dave. His insight and ability to explain concepts and strategies were excellent, and he always knew the right leading questions to ask. Dave helped me fine tune my processes, time management, and strategy execution, and I scored a 710 on my first real GMAT. Just a month later, after only focusing on the areas that Dave helped me identify, I nailed my target score of a 730. I am thrilled with my improvement and I cannot recommend Dave highly enough!

Course e-GMAT Online Focused

Location Online

My journey with E-GMAT started on May'22.

I fell in love with the platform immediately. The platform is super easy to navigate and use. e-GMAT's Scholaranium question bank is one of the best. The platform saves a lot of your time. Maintaining and revising error logs became very convenient.

The platform helped me identify my weak areas and the time I took in each section by providing analysis of all my quizzes.
This analysis was important to me as it gave me new insights and helped me identify where I had to focus more.

e-GMAT's meaning based approach for solving SC questions is the best

I used to take 1minute 45 seconds to 2 minutes to solve an SC question and my accuracy was also not high, but after going through e-GMAT's meaning based approach the average time I took to solve an SC question came down to 1 minute 15 seconds to 1 and half minute and my accuracy also improved a lot across both medium and hard level difficulty questions.

Apart from the course the thing that most impressed me is the support and encouragement they gave.

I requested for a personalized study plan and I was assigned Ms. Rashmi as my mentor.

She gave my preparation a direction and helped me get out of my comfort zone.

She was really concerned about my preparation and kept pushing me to be consistent with my preparation.

Her pep talk and last minute tips before the exam helped me calm my nerves and helped me do well on the exam.

I want to genuinely thank e-GMAT and Ms. Rashmi for being a part of my GMAT journey.

Happy Learning!
