After finishing my undergraduate degree in business, I started preparing for the GMAT. My friends have used Magoosh for other exams, such as GRE and TOEFL, and they all have received positive results from the materials. Therefore, I decided to give it a try.
Though I was fresh out from university, I still went through the entire verbal and quant course and did 90% of the practice questions, along with OGs and Manhattan Prep books. However, the questions appeared on the exam were at least 10 times more difficult than the ones from Magoosh.
Magoosh is an amazing platform if you are out of school for a couple of years and have forgotten everything about maths, yet it is not an exam oriented platform. Magoosh could be used to refresh your memories, but it should never be used by itself.

Good materials & questions, bad and distracting website design
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
After being stuck at the same score using Magoosh, I decided to give e-gmat verbal a try.
The materials were very organized and the questions were challenging, yet, similar to Magoosh, it offers a good foundation to your verbal studies, but it doesn't offer any exam oriented materials.
After going through 80% of the questions and the course, I did not improve much on my verbal, I was a bit disappointed by it. I believe that e-gmat is just not a good platform for me.
Some of the videos looked a bit archaic and the website is not designed to induce high performance.
Hi, thanks for your feedback on it. I have heard that Manhattan was very good for high scores, though you used both Manhattan and Magoosh, how would you describe the resource difference ?
