My preparation for GMAT started around April of 2017 and I have been practicing on and off for more than a few months. I mostly studied from the resources available in the internet and OG. My practice lacked momentum, and I lacked motivation. Preparing for GMAT became more of a hobby rather than an active goal. In December, I realized that I do not want to take the GMAT without assistance of any Prep company. I was enrolled with GMAT Club and the I signed in to one of the free sessions on SC and Number Properties by e-GMAT. I was glad to see the methodical approach prescribed by e-gmat, focusing more on ability than tips or tricks. The methodical approach struck a chord with me, and I purchased the Verbal+Quant online course. Needless to say, the e-gmat Verbal is top notch and has helped innumerable students achieve their verbal score. The best quality of e-gmat is that it motivates the students to have the faith in their approach, follow the process, and know their takt time. Master comprehension is a piece of gold, and reading slowly with 100% comprehension is the single best advice for conquering GMAT verbal section.
Not a lot is discussed about e-gmat quant course. e-gmat quant online course was the only course that I used for GMAT preparation (apart from OGs), and boy it helped me score 49 with minimum preparation. From an engineering background, I did not have a lot of difficulty in the Quant Section and I devoted a vast majority of my time to the Verbal section. Having said that, there were a quite a few concepts that I was not good at, and e-gmat quant course helped me tremendously with those concepts. I absolutely dreaded Algebra (inequations and absolute equations), and I was also not very comfortable with the rules of Number Properties and Coordinate Geometry. The best part of e-gmat quant course is that it is extremely thorough and covers the entire breadth of skills tested in GMAT quant section. The scholaranium questions are almost all highly difficult questions and prepares you for the GMAT battle. I highly recommend e-gmat quant course to all GMAT students looking for an online quant course. The beauty of GMAT quant is it's subtlety. It tests concepts and efficiency rather than speed. It needs extreme attention to detail. The e-gmat quant course has beautifully captured all these nuances and has delivered a course that truly prepares you for the toughest GMAT quant questions. Some quant questions (especially Word Problems) in scholaranium are too long to read and are really difficult to solve in 2-3 minutes. GMAT rarely has such long questions in the exam. However, the difficulty of the questions actually makes one stronger and more prepared for the actual GMAT battle, which can be really intense.
I will end this review with the statement that for all the students who are looking for a GMATPREP without a hole in their pocket, e-gmat verbal+quant online is the way to go. It is the most affordable and the most effective GMAT prep.
