Hello

I have joined the Magoosh GMAT premium course quite a long time back 2010 and just wanted to drop in a note about what I liked and did not like about the course.

Pros:
Very engaging videos especially the Quant practice questions
Explanations are very lucid and easy to understand
the structure and layout of the lessons in the dashboard is very handy and helpful to track about the progress status
around 500 quant question and around 383 Verbal questions

Cons:
The verbal lessons are not at a GMAT level.
The quant lessons could have been better. I felt that we need to include the MGMAT books along with Magoosh course to learn the complete GMAT tested content


Overall I would recommend Magoosh course as the video lessons and especially the practice questions explanations are very engaging especially after a long hard day at work when reading from books is a chore.

I would like to state here that I have appeared for the official GMAT and have scored 690 ( QA:49 VA: 36). Maybe I could have done better in Verbal but sadly this is what I got :(

Hi,

I have taken the GMAT about a year and half back and scored 630 overall, I think the split between QA and VA was 42 and 36 respectively if I remember correctly.

Life happened, and I got derailed on my plans for MBA. However I have again restarted my preparation. One thing I had to taken care was the fact my VA score was pretty low, and on analysis and my own instinct I knew this was more due to SC and RC than CR.

E gmat course is helping me to understand the SC and RC process, I did not have any formal english grammar education so trusted my ear more while solving SC questions during my last GMAT attempt and while I started my preparation again a month back. RC is more of a pain, as more often while going through the questions after reading the passage, I cannot even understand/remember which portions of the passage i should relook at. I end up reading the passage more than once, sometimes
three time, inevitably getting the answer wrong and losing precious time.

The egmat concept of meaning and pause while reading complicated SC and RC has definitely built up on my confidence. My accuracy has gone after completing about 50% of the course. My test date is on 2/15, so heres to hoping that I will do well.

I recommend egmat verbal course as i feel that most of us juggle a job, family and preparation for GMAT has to be optimized for maximum accuracy within a short time span and multiple commitments.

Hi,

I wanted to review the Quant live prep course at egmat. I am using this in conjunction with the MGMAT guides, this course is super lucid and easy to understand.

Especially the number properties module is pretty good. I did not know that there are specific concepts such as in odd/even numbers that are very craftily tested i the GMAT.

The modules in Word Problem, Algebra, geometry were equally helpful to me. I used to review the videos in the evening after work, when reading through a book was especially tedious. The videos made it much easier to learn and retain the concepts.

I completely recommend this course to anyone looking to score well on the GMAT

Using the egmat Scholaranium, was not part of my study plan initially. I am currently studying with egmat and MGMAT guides for my test on 2/15/2017. Initially I had scheduled my gmat last year but due to personal issues, had to postpone the date.
Hence I have very little time, to complete the material, take 6 MGMAT tests and 6 OG tests. However, my friend who is a GMAT veteran, advised me to try Scholaranium. I am glad I listened to him, cause I was simply blown away with this tool.
The Scholaranium is one of the best ways to practice for the actual test. It has a combination of easy, medium and hard questions and accurately calculates your score which will help you to figure out where you stand in our preparation, your weak areas and strong points.
Overall I fully recommend this tool to be used in conjunction with the course.Even if you are short on time, like I am, spending some time with this tool will actually help to target weak areas and improve them

Hello,

I am using the Verbal Scholaranium along with the egmat verbal onlline course. This is a fantastic tool, as it really helps to target my weak areas especially in SC and RC.
If your test prep strategy is to practice a diverse set of questions, then Verbal Scholaranium wins hands down.
The tool has questions at easy medium and hard level and one can also bookmark the question to review later.
Having said that, i havent completed all the questions from the pool, but i do feel much more confidant in VA after going through the videos and practicing from the questions sets in Scholaranium.
