Strengths:
- Well-structured course plan
- Decent price/value ratio
- Consultant - Rida Shafeek who was willing to schedule call with me very fast and gave a lot of quick tips and motivated me when I felt down and needed to improve rapidly in 20 days
- Very fast responses of instructors in discussions
Would make the product better:
- Length of some video courses. Sometimes the instructor went too much in detail (e.g. devoted a 17-minute video) with relatively easy and obvious topics
- Inaccurate calibration of easy, medium, hard questions. When I turned on some custom test and selected medium questions - it also gave me some easy and hard ones...
- In Verbal sections some correct answer choices were very poorly defended by instructors in discussion queries. However, this does not happen often.
Overall satisfied with this product.

Hey JulianJ,
Congratulations on a massive 180-point improvement!! This is Rida, your mentor. I am ecstatic to hear about your success!
I know that you were willing to put in all the effort to get to your target score. Just looking at the snapshot below- you gave it your 100% in the SC modules, so you could perfect the concepts that would enable success.

The reason why we explain in such detail is so that non-native speakers and people who are not as familiar with the intricacies of the English language can acquire all the knowledge, they need to ace the Verbal section of the GMAT.
I think the discrepancies in question difficulty that you faced were in RC. In RC, the passages are classified as easy, medium and hard. Even when you pick a medium passage, you may face easy or hard questions. The difficulty level in the case of RC is therefore by passage, not by individual question.
Thank you for your suggestions! We are always looking to make improvements and grow to help more people reach their target score.
I am glad to know that I could help you on the way to your success.
I wish you all the best!!
Regards,
Rida
