Hi,
I took the GMAT course from the e-gmat and improved my score by 160 points. The course is very interactive and self-paced. As a working professional, It is very easy for me to grasp concepts in this interactive course. In addition, each section in the course has different modules/concepts and hence it helps us better understand our weaknesses and focus on correcting our mistakes.
The methods learned in this course especially in verbal helps you to solve questions even in a stressed environment as in the test center. The pre-thinking approach and the meaning based approach in verbal helped me a lot to improve my verbal score. The mocks in this course very much stimulate the actual GMAT mocks . In fact, they are a bit tougher when compared to actual GMAT. One can expect to score a greater than or equal to the score we got in e-gmat mocks.
The one thing that worked very well for me other than the course is the mentorship programme. GMAT is not just a test of concepts but it’s also a test of resilience, consistency and calmness. We might get a good score over the mocks but screw up our actual exam if we do not maintain our calmness. My mentor, Rashmi, from e-gmat provided me with the much needed confidence and boost along with detailed study plan throughout my journey keeping in view of my weakness and strengths. Thanks a lot to the e-gmat team, especially Rashmi, for being there throughout the journey.
Dear mounica12,
Congratulations on your 700😊! A 160-point improvement is no mean feat, and it has been my pleasure working with you in this journey.
As you have rightly said - “GMAT is not just a test of concepts but it’s also a test of resilience, consistency and calmness.” I am glad that you displayed all these characteristics in this journey to your target score.
Since you were starting out at a lower ability in both verbal and quant, you set about building your ability from the foundation up by learning concepts and applications and then practicing then on GMAT-like questions in cementing.
This image shows how the near-perfect scores in SC foundational concepts helped you improve to a 65%+ accuracy across all blocks:

In CR too, you were able to improve to a 76% accuracy while reducing the overall time by working on your areas of weakness and internalizing the pre-thinking approach. This image charts the improvement in accuracy the Assumptions block in CR against the reduction in the overall time:

In GMAT preparation, the means to predict your ability and outcome is a great asset. I am really happy that the SIGma-X mocks enabled you to predict your outcome enabling you to take the right steps toward your success.
There are always ups and downs in any journey and I am glad that you never gave up despite the downs and with the “resilience, consistency and calm” were able to overcome this and get to your dream score😊 I am sure these qualities that you have displayed during your preparation will help you succeed in your future endeavours too.
I, on behalf of the entire e-GMAT family, wish you all the very best.
Best Regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
