Strengths:

1. The course is taught from the basics.
2. Teaches every skill that GMAT is looking for in the test takers.
3. Cementing and Ability Quizzes.

e-GMAT has the best foundational modules. The course also taught me reading strategies that helped me to avoid re-reading sentences, critical thinking strategies that helped me understand the author’s reasoning and SC strategies that helped me understand the intended meaning and identify the errors. These strategies helped me solve questions faster and gave me an instant boost to 85th percentile, and with some practice, I was able to break the 90 percentile barrier.

The quizzes and mocks gave a very good analysis of my weak areas and helped me spend my already little preparation time wisely. I work 6 days a week and without the analytics given by the platform, I could not have prepared as effectively as I did.

Lastly, I want to thank Rashmi, who, by analyzing my previous score report, gave me a personalized study plan and tons of support and guidance. Her tips helped me stay calm on the exam day.

e-GMAT is a complete package and I highly recommend the course to anyone looking to score above 90%ile.

Dear Surya499, 

Congratulations on a tremendous 80-point improvement to 730! It has been a pleasure working with in this journey to ace the GMAT!

I am glad that the verbal strategies helped you crack the 90th percentile in verbal. A 12-point improvement is truly commendable and would not have been possible without your hard work, determination and a single-minded focus on building ability. See how following a structured approach of building rock-solid foundation and applying the pre-thinking approach in CR, helped you get to a consistent 75% + accuracy for hard questions:

I appreciate that you mention the value of a data-driven approach to improvement. Data helps us identify and focus on fixing our areas of weakness at a granular level. This helped us identify Physical Sciences and Bio Sciences passages as the weaker areas in RC. See how working on that helped you improve to an 88% accuracy here and helped bring down the overall time to 1 min 24 seconds:

I am really glad that this data-driven approach helped you manage the prep amid the hectic work schedule. It not easy to balance prep with work, but you have shown that with determination and a structured data-driven plan, it is possible to ace the GMAT.

I on behalf of the entire e-GMAT family want to wish you the best of luck in this new endeavour that you are setting up on.

Wishing you all the very best,

Best regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
