Strengths:

The Egmat online course (quant+verbal) is possibly the most comprehensive course based on my research. It is a highly structured course and is ideal for someone looking to ace the test with minimum effort in trying to figure out how to do it. Verbal videos and explanations are top-notch, and verbal scholaranium is amazing for doing self-paced learning.

Would make the product better:

Maybe introduce P.A.C.E. like structure for verbal as well! There were quite a few modules that I found to be a bit repetitive. Also, there should be an option to speed up the videos as it takes up a lot of time and is extremely slow.

I absolutely loved the second leg of my GMAT Journey, which I prepared for using e-GMAT. I was able to develop a solid verbal ability, even though it didn't reflect that much in my test scores; however, it's a skill I can apply in my everyday life. I believe that if you have an e-GMAT subscription, you don't need any other material to prepare, as it truly is a complete product.

Course Material:
Coming from an Indian engineering background, I knew I wouldn't face a problem with Quant, and I was short on time. So, I decided to focus all my energy on Verbal to maximize my score in the shortest time possible. The Verbal course material was divided into the three main sections - RC, CR, and SC - and each section had multiple videos and practice files. I found the course material to be exceptional because the videos covered all the concepts in thorough detail and avoided giving generic shortcuts that fail during difficult questions. Learning these concepts helped me face any question. The small practice modules in between the videos were indeed useful and helped reinforce the concepts. Lastly, the practice files allowed me to test the concepts learned in each module.
I do not have much feedback on quant as I didn't prepare quant from e gmat, but I have heard great feedback on quant as well!

Scholaranium:
In my opinion, Scholaranium is the best e-learning product I've come across. Firstly, it offers a large question bank with more questions being added after finishing a mock test. Secondly, the option of creating custom quizzes and completing them in a time-bound manner is really helpful, and I would recommend everyone to attempt all questions in Scholaranium in a time-bound manner to simulate the real GMAT experience. The quality of solutions provided for each question is top-notch and clears even the silliest doubts you can have. Moreover, you can view the time spent on each question and modify your strategy accordingly. I spent a large proportion of my time here strengthening my concepts.
I recommend everyone to not think that GMAT quant is easier that e GMAT quant, as I am pretty sure that is not true having gone through the actual test multiple times.

Mentorship:
Dhruv from e-GMAT helped me assess my e-GMAT mocks and gave me a clear picture of where I was lacking, pointing out things that I was unintentionally overlooking. I highly recommend everyone with an e-GMAT subscription to reach out to their support and avail of mentorship. It made a significant difference in my preparation.
