I started with the old school way with Official Guides and after 2 months of preparation I got a 390 in my first official mock. I was really frustrated to see such a low score and at a point of time I felt GMAT is not my cup of tea. A friend recommended me Gmatwhiz and I checked the free trial and was really surprised by the unique course structure and the unique interface. The platform asked for some initial questions and after that prepared a proper customised study plan for me.

The study plan helped me stay on track with my studies which was a big challenge for me as working professional. The course was designed in such way that it had the right balance of conceptual understanding as well as unique methodology. I really liked the DS methodology, which was one area I was always afraid of. This went a long way and helped me improve my quant score to Q45 on the actual test.

Also in verbal I felt the explanations to the questions were very good. In fact there was detailed analysis of each passage besides the usual explanation of correct and incorrect choices. This way I could understand where I was lacking and helped me improvise a lot. There were some additional modules that were served to me whenever I was not able to perform in a particular topic.

Within 3 months I was scoring in the range of 650+ in official mock tests consistently. This was a huge relief since I started at 390. Unfortunately on the day of the test I panicked in the verbal section and ended up messing it up, but thanks to my mentor at Gmatwhiz I am looking at a retake soon and targeting a 680+. I would highly recommend this course to anyone struggling with their GMAT preparations.
