Please make note of the below points before the review of GMAT Club tests -:
1) This test is applicable to anyone targeting Q48 or above
2) Make sure to make an error log for these questions as some of the questions are out of the world
3) Having scored Q49 and Q50 twice on the actual GMAT, I must admit these tests certainly helped me push the score.
4) All these tests have amazing DS questions, laying traps more often than not.
5) These are well within the purview of GMAT syllabus and do not focus on extra calculations.
In conclusion, a must for anyone who wants to improve the Quant score.
GMAT is an exam that requires a structured study approach. e-Gmat verbal/quant online course certainly ensures that we study methodically and review our own performances at regular intervals. Let's tackle the review section-wise -:
Sentence Correction
A) The course is very good with the course divided into multiple sub-sections i.e. SV Agreement, Verb-Tenses, Parallelism etc.
B) Also, there are multiple articles within the course that addresses certain myths/misconceptions about the GMAT, and that is great addition to the course.
C) The quality of questions for SC in the Scholaranium platform is amazing. These questions will certainly enhance your understanding.
Critical Reasoning
A) The course starts with some basics such as definitions for Premise and Conclusion.
B) The Assumption module is the most important here and all the relevant concepts with respect to Pre-thinking are articulated efficiently. This certainly enhanced my learning and understanding of the CR questions.
Reading Comprehension
A) The course tackles each type of questions i.e Inference, Main point, data based etc.
B) The crux of this course is that we understand the passage properly one go, make paragraph summaries and focus on structure words such as However, but, In addition, for example etc.
Quant
A) The course is divided beautifully that you'll learn all the concepts organically
B) I've tried 2-3 course for Quant but e-GMAT quant course is probably the most relevant in terms of difficulty and nature of questions.
C) e-GMAT has introduced a Quant 2.0 with more learning opportunities and an enhanced course. Special mention to Shweta Koshija for the her explanation in the Quant section, specifically Geometry.
Scholaranium
A) This is without doubt the USP of the e-GMAT course. The quality of questions and explanations is amazing.
B) The amount of data you can get from the course is more than sufficient to identify your weaknesses, timing issues and strong areas.
Sigma-X Mocks
1) You can get an ESR like data post the completion of the mock
2) There are videos as well on how to analyze the mocks and that certainly helps a lot
3) The verbal is again on point but I felt that quant was a bit tougher than what you're likely to face on the actual GMAT.
To conclude, your actual GMAT score won't actually fluctuate much from the Sigma-X mock scores and you can rely on them for analysis.
e-GMAT Mentorship
A) I would sincerely thank Nava and DJ (Dhananjay Lowe) for their guidance throughout my prep.
B) The email responses to my queries were crisp and to the point. The strategic advice I received was invaluable and gave me the direction to work for.
Overall, I would highly recommend the e-GMAT course for both Quant and Verbal. It's a one stop shop for the GMAT prep.
Center * Pearson VUE GMAT Test Center
Location Bangalore, India
The test center experience was quite good. It is conveniently located near the Cubbon Park Metro station and hence, is easy to find. The employees are all professional. Do take into consideration that not only does the center conducts GMAT but also other exams. There are appropriate Covid protocols taken as well with everyone wearing masks and ensuring social distancing.
The staff was polite and professional. There were locker facilities to store personal belongings. There was minimal noise level from the street. However, do make a note that there is no parking facility near the center (Or I couldn’t find). Overall a good experience.
