E-GMAT provides an excellent material to help students improve their GMAT score and I encourage students, especially non-natives to enroll in this course. Each of the parts in which the verbal course is divided (SC, CR and RC) consists on videos with detailed explanations of the main concepts followed by practical questions that help you to apply these fundamentals. The live sessions are a very useful resource to solidify these concepts.

The SC part is with no doubt the most complete resource I have found in the market. It helped me to understand the importance of the meaning set by the original sentence. This course not only shows you that an option is ambiguous but also explains you WHY (something that other resources in the market don´t do well). Being a non-native, not understanding this subtle concept was keeping me from reaching a top level on this section. In summary, this course goes beyond the typical "tricks" that are good for 600 level questions and makes you pay special attention to meaning.

The CR section is also great. It really helped me to understand the concept of assumption, something I was struggling with. It also helped me understand well cause & effect arguments. The collection of practice questions is really interesting.

As far as RC section, I was feeling very comfortable before taking the course and I did not review it with too much detail.

To sum up, this course is a MUST for non-natives that are struggling with certain aspects of verbal section. The online format is very dynamic and interactive and the content has a good balance of theory and practice. Also, the course explains clearly the key concepts needed to ace the GMAT.
