I am writing this review in the middle of my GMAT preparation.
I had some personal problems because of which I was unable to write my GMAT but am going to give within 60 days.
My only intention is to help out students( read strugglers) who are not able to decide which course to take.
A little bit about myself first : I am an engineering graduate from India and have been working for the past 7 years. Getting an MBA has been a long time goal for me ever since I passed out of college.
I started my GMAT preparation some 3 years ago. I was very confused which course to take or which books to study. I consulted a few of my friends and relatives who had appeared for GMAT in the past and everyone gave a different advice.
Like most of the people I trusted them and ended up purchasing a different MBA prep book everytime. Despite studying hard it was very difficult for me to choose the right answer. I always ended up in the 'best two' options and 'unluckily' or whatever someone may call it selected the wrong one atlast.
After having spent a lot of time in preparing, I decided to go for the real GMAT and got a very poor score(650).
I knew it was not at all sufficient to get me into a good b school.
One fine day I was going through a review in a local MBA blog about e-gmat and their course material specially designed for non natives. At first I thought it would be another gmat prep. trying to make money and hence using a different marketing strategy.
Later on I saw lots of reviews some of which were very similar to my own preparation methods.
I attended one of their free webinars during a weekend and liked their way of teaching.
I finally decided to write them an email asking in detail about their course and fee structure and everything.
They gave me an option of full refund if I donot like the course material within 10 days of purchasing.
As I started going through their material, I found them quite easy to understand and very interactive. It was very similar to an offline tutor.
I have read every available GMAT prep. book and not a single book was able to make the grammar concept so clear as e gmat did.
Also, the way the course is designed, it maintains a very medium pace, making sure the student understands every bit of it.
It has not only taught me all the good things to do in the real GMAT but also the bad things to avoid.
Today having spend a brief amount of time with their course I can say it with full confidence that this is no doubt the best online material for verbal preparation.
I gave a mock test last week and saw a 50 point increase in my overall GMAT score !
Now I am very confident that I will surely score better than what I did last time.
However I still want to improve further and thats why giving myself some more time.
My very honest recommendation to all non native English speakers is to take up this course and your verbal scores will increase for sure.
The tutors are very promt in clearing all your doubts.
My special thanks to Rajat, Payal and Shraddha.
If someone has any doubts then feel free to reach out to me.
