Strengths:

Flexibility of studying and the variety of practice tools to solidify learnings

I wouldn't say online courses could help all students improve their scores significantly because that would be a false claim. In fact, my case is an example where I self-studied with books for 2 months (completely from scratch) and got 700 in my first attempt, and after learning extra with e-GMAT I still got 700 in my second attempt.

However, I would definitely stress on the difference between these 2 700 scores. In my very first attempt, I hastily rushed on the last 3-4 questions in both Verbal and Quantitative sessions, and I knew there were many random guesses throughout my Verbal one. Hence, I believe the first 700 was a complete luck.

After studying with e-GMAT, I saw their biggest strength is the structural guidance of thinking for each type of knowledge in the GMAT test. That helped me a lot on the second attempt and especially in the Verbal CR questions, where I didn't even need to rush and random guess in any question. Given the admission deadlines and current workload from my job, I am unfortunately not having enough time to re-take the test. I wish I had studied GMAT with e-GMAT earlier from last year, so that I would have had more time doing practices and more chance to score higher because I know I'm capable of.

Hi minhhoangvo,

Thank you for taking the time to pen down your review!

I am glad to see that you were able to use the course to change the way that you approach the test. While deadlines and work commitments might have prevented you from attempting a retake, the skills you have learnt would definitely help you in the future.

I commend the time and effort you have put into the course. This focussed effort allowed you to internalise methodologies that would get you to the right answer each and every time. In CR especially, this effort has paid off, where your accuracy increased from 27% to 67% in hard questions-

Minhhoangvo, given your diligence and drive, I am sure that any cohort would be lucky to have you. Your ability to understand and appreciate growth in different contexts will truly add value to any B School.

All the very best!

Regards,
Rida
