I was initially using other books for my study (MGMAT books) which were really good. However, I ran into Magoosh and that really helped me in a couple of ways: 1) their problems are excelent (sometimes, it is very easy to find poor GMAT problems in the internet, especially in the sentence correction area); 2) their maths videos were really really useful to me and in some areas were more insightful that the MGMAT books; and 3) it was really easy for me to go online and do a couple of verbal problems whenever I had 5 free minutes at work.

I did not use the verbal videos (I did use the verbal problems) because I though I did not need them as much and because I though they were a bit dense.

I asked them for help re two problems twice and they replied within 24 hours.

I am not saying Magoosh will replace hard work. There are no shortcuts in the GMAT. I am saying that, in my opinion, I would not have got 730 in my first try if it was not for magoosh (amongsts other things, obviosuly).

Experience during the program

I had high expectations of my experience at Booth but I have to say that these have been exceeded. I would mention three main reasons: 1) Classmates, they are not only top in terms of academic and professional experience, they are also great team players and extremely well rounded! I have learned so much from them and we already feel like a family; 2) flexible curriculum, besides Booth's amazing faculty, having the chance to take advanced courses on the fields that you have more experience is extremely enriching! 3) the school itself, everything is so well organized and and the alumni guest speakers are so impressive.
