Strengths:

The Verbal module is their absolute strength.
Starting with Master Comprehension course which enabled me to dissect sentences better, pause at the right places, and infer the right meaning, the course provided all the foundations I needed.

The 'Meaning-based' approach to SC was easy to grasp and effective in nature. The course did not shove technical grammar details at all, and the nuanced approach to understanding the underlying meaning of the sentence helped me improve my accuracy in SC to a large extent.

CR was my weakest part. Again, the 'Pre-thinking' part and understanding the 'Falsification scenario' of each question helped me to understand the passage tremendously. The CR module is a must for someone looking to get into the 90th percentile.

Another strength is their Question bank - Scholaranium portal and the massively important data analytics which helped me pinpoint my weak areas

Would make the product better:

The Quant portion is too vast and for someone who's looking to increase from a Q47-48 to Q49-50, there can be a separate module for them to address their weak areas while keeping the momentum of the strong areas with regular practise.

I started using E-GMAT after getting V28 in my GMAT attempt.
I realised that my Verbal needs a re-approach from the absolute basics and hence, enrolled for E-GMAT after everyone recommended their course.
The course provided the perfect push, with excellent question banks to sharpen my skills.
The cementing quizzes helped me strengthen my skills and the periodic reviews helped me to understand why I was failing in certain areas.

As part of the Last Mile Push programme, my mentor Rashmi ma'am jotted down a perfect strategy plan for 3 weeks before my test date. It helped me to keep my focus and be consistent in my prep, which was mighty important. Other than that, she motivated me on my bad days and reinvigorated my sense of self-belief and confidence. I owe my performance to Rashmi ma'am and to the entire E-GMAT team.

Dear chelseafan97, 

Congratulations on the 720 with a massive 13-point improvement in verbal to a V41! What an improvement and what an achievement! It has been my pleasure being a part of this journey.

I must say, you left no stone unturned in this journey to excellence. Starting from basics – by learning how to read the right way – you followed a structured approach to building your ability. See how doing Master Comprehension and internalizing the meaning-based approach really helped you get to a 90th%ile in SC:

This methodical approach of building a rock-solid foundation and then reinforcing it through cementing is what really helped you reach 90th percentile in verbal. You then augmented your ability by using the data analytics on the platform to identify and fix your areas of weakness to reach that V41.

See how in CR, this data-driven hyper-specific approach helped you master the Pre-thinking approach that helped you increase your CR accuracy to 86% while reducing the overall time to around 2 min:

I appreciate your feedback on the quant course. However, a course is wholesome only when it caters to students with all starting abilities! That is where the customisation of study plan and the PACE driven architecture comes in.

As you know from your own journey, basis your starting ability in quant, we took the route of specifically identifying and fixing your weaknesses, enabling you to complete the quant course within 15 days. Even in the modules that you needed to go through, PACE helped you save time by identifying your strengths and creating an atomic pathway targeting just your weaker areas. See how this approach helped you get to a 70% accuracy for hard questions across all the sub-sections in quants:

I am really, glad that with your hard-work and determination, you were able to get to your target score. I, on behalf of the entire e-GMAT family, want to wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavours.

Wishing you all the very best,

Best regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
