To give a little bit background, I am a Software Engineer work in an internet company. I scored 760 in my first attempt of GMAT and are applying for a professional part-time MBA program. I wanted to thank eGMAT for this decent score and thus decided to write this testimonial.
Since I have to work during workdays and play with kids before bed time, I didn't have much time to prepare for the exam during the usual days and had to spend most of my time on preparing during the Christmas and new year holiday period. I came to e-GMAT courses first through their free sessions and I found that their approaches were very helpful for me to correctly analyze the questions and being confident about my choices. Thus, I decided to buy the online courses for both quant and verbal sections.
I did carefully go through the basic concepts and made some practices on e-gmat.com, although I didn't have time to go through every video and practice provided by the courses. For Critical Reasoning, the proposed three steps are quite helpful for both improving the accuracy and saving time: reading the question, pre-thinking possible answer, comparing the options. For Sentence Correction, it was suggested to spend more time on reading the original sentence and finding possible errors than on comparing options, which I agree is more effective and effecient than spending more time on directly comparing options.
Overall, I think the e-gmat course worths the money and time I spent, and it helped me a lot on getting a decent score in my first attempt.
