A Planned and Structured Course Empowered by Data!

I was connected to one of the members of eGMAT prior to my purchase of the course. In the meeting I was shown around their website, the portal, Scholaranium 2.0, and the verbal course material.

Post my enrollment in the course, I was invited to an onboarding session in which I was told about the best practices on using the Scholaranium 2.0 and the course videos. I took a diagnostic test and based on the assessment of that, I was assigned a mentor (DJ!!) who gave me feedback on my ability and created an overall plan for my preparation, which revolved around the target score that I had specified.

The overall course is designed in a 3-stage manner and students have an option to skip to Stage II if they are confident about their skill levels in certain sections. Based on personal taste, I decided to go through the entire course since I felt that skipping a few concept files would mean that I am impatient :P

I was constantly in touch with DJ, on a weekly basis. He would share hyper-specific and personalized plans, particularly designed for my weak areas. They ranged from concept files, how to take revision notes, how to effectively revise etc. What helped in these feedback sessions/plans was that DJ was very calm and confident about the process. "Trust the process" really resonated with me during this journey. Along with that, eGMAT, with Scholaranium 2.0, utilizes quiz data to analyze weak areas within each subsection (SC, CR etc) and based on that the support team guide you on corrective actions.

I essentially followed the plan and took the Sigma X mocks when I was asked to go for it. Towards the end of my preparation, DJ had noticed a weakness in SC and gave me a Sentence Correction booster plan, that I followed throughout the last week before my exam date. I think it helped me refresh my ability and ensure that my ability is fresh for the main day.

Overall, the 6 month long journey was a very planned one, with lots of useful feedback and data. I think the mentorship program was a really huge factor in ensuring that everything is planned and executed well. I am glad I made that choice ^_^

Thanks, eGMAT!
