The Best Course for both Quant and Verbal

I became an EGMAT student in May 2021. Before doing so, I had taken the GMAT exam once and to prepare, had enrolled myself in a popular Bangalore-based coaching. While I knew about EGMAT even back then, I just couldn't believe that a completely-online portal can be as impactful as the ones that offer "live and personalized learning". Having used the EGMAT platform for almost 6 months, I can, without a doubt, say that I was wrong - not only about how good EGMAT is but also about it being just another online preparation platform.

Following are some of the differentiators for EGMAT:

1. Course Structure - Entire content is broken down into bite-sized videos. Rather than focusing on shortcuts and smart tricks, the EGMAT course helps in drilling down the concepts. You learn a topic, then practice questions with varying difficulty, and move ahead only once you are comfortable. This cycle worked really well for me as I already understood some concepts but here, I could apply them one at a time and learn step-by-step

2. Equal focus on Quant and Verbal - There are a lot of products out there that are strong in either Verbal or Quant but not both. EGMAT, on the other hand, helped me balance my preparation in both sections. I started with SC and was blown away by all the concepts and questions offered. While there isn't a lot of theory to learn in CR and RC, the pre-thinking approach certainly helped. Within quant, the course is broken down into various sub-sections within Arithment and Algebra-Geometry and the questions are presented in a way that makes it a routine to solve even harder ones within the stipulated time.

3. Scholaranium - Previously, when I used to practice, I did not have very clear insights on what am I weak in. Sure, I could know that, say, am not so strong in Verbal, or even narrow it down to Sentence Correction but the data presented in Scholaranium breaks the weaknesses down to sub-sections. I could clearly know the topic where am taking a lot of time or my accuracy is poor, and rather than focusing on the entire section, could do focused brush-up by creating custom quizzes. An extremely helpful feature is "Ask the Expert". Rather than looking up different websites where I went wrong in my approach to a question, I could ask an EGMAT expert or even better, just look at similar doubts asked by fellow students. The response rate in the former case was great and this helped in keeping the momentum up. The SigmaX mocks are very close to the actual exam and the debriefing of each question is super helpful.

4. Personalized Support - This is where EGMAT transcended from being a good to a great course, for me. I was bucketed into the Last Mile Profile and right from Day 1, my mentor Atreya Roy has been my go-to person for all queries - right from any doubts on what topic to pick up next to any confusion around whether am progressing in the right direction. Atreya was always quick to analyze my tests and mocks and suggest an improvement plan. I have actually just stuck to his suggestions throughout the journey and that has worked wonders for me. I always used to struggle with my pacing but in my actual GMAT, I almost finished Verbal on time and could solve each Quant question.

In summary: If anyone is looking for a comprehensive GMAT course, EGMAT should be your choice. Attend a couple of free webinars or take the trial and you will realize how amazing the platform is. I thank my mentor Atreya and the entire EGMAT team for their support :)
