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.

My journey with Admit Expert has been very fruitful to say the least. My profile with 6 years of work experience from a O&M role in a PSU was made fit for the MBA schools by gauging my strengths, weaknesses and stories from my professional experience. I had scored a 750 in GMAT but was sceptical about how to fit my stories to write the SOPs/Essays for various schools. Therefore I started looking for various consultants. When I contacted Admit Expert for my profile review they were very helpful. As the reviewer has prior PSU experience, his insights really instilled a faith in me to go for Admit expert. He introduced me to the lead consultant who herself was very experienced mentor having years of experience in drafting essays. She helped to select my target schools suitable to my career and future goals. She really explained me how to fill out the onboarding document. After getting to know my stories, she helped me to select the relevant stories which would help my application essays. Through various brain storming sessions, the essays were finalized. She was available throughout which helped me with minute details for my essays. I had got interview calls from the schools I had applied. Even for my interview, two mock interviews were conducted by Admit Expert which helped me greatly to prepare for final interviews.
I would absolutely recommend Admit Expert to all the MBA Aspirants for their dream B-schools.
