Verified GMAT Classic score:
710 Q50 V36 (Online)
Hey people I'm Sushanth.
I always thought that breaking the 700 score barrier on the GMAT wasn't something that I would be able to, but thankfully I was wrong.
As you people will notice in the details that I have mentioned as a part of this review, I had already given the GMAT once before taking up E-GMAT's Verbal Online course. I scored a 640 on my first attempt, way below what I had initially expected. The break-up was Q-48 and V-30 IR-2.
Post this, I wrote an e-mail to the E-GMAT team and decided to try their Verbal online course. A point that I was able to infer, was with respect to my performance in the critical reasoning and reading comp sections. I had performed pretty badly and hence decided to hone my verbal skills for the second attempt. I scored 710 on the second attempt,
the breakup mentioned here:- Q-50 V-36 IR-5.
Now coming to the actual crux of the matter, the E-GMAT Verbal Online Course is actually pretty good. In fact, after reading lots of negative reviews online I decided not to go for it, but post the first attempt I figured I didn't have anything to lose. The course ended up being very detailed, interactive, and well designed. It has lots of inputs and details that are really useful. I didn't really use it for SC, as I was decent with that, but instead used it to work on CR and RC. The scholaranium is a nice place to test out your comprehension of the concepts. It is customizable and has really nice questions of varying difficulty. The cementing quizzes are pretty cool too.
All of the separate SC, CR, and RC sections have concept and application files, which are really well-designed. There are pre-quizzes and post-quizzes that help you assess your comprehension of the intended concept as well.
Also, FYI I wrote the Online GMAT on my second attempt. (The Online GMAT is really nice, i.e. you don't have to go out and write the test in an environment you're not accustomed to.)
P.S.- Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the GMAT, E-GMAT's Verbal Online Course,etc.
