Course e-GMAT Online Focused

The high popularity of the e-GMAT made me choose their course and I have to say it lived up to my expectations. With years of experience, they have developed these courses that are highly functional and extremely streamlined.

Their verbal course is hands down one of the best. GMAT is an exam that tests your logical ability and I believe a strong fundamental approach to logic is needed to tackle GMAT with ease. e-GMAT's teaching methodology relies on the most fundamental things - Meaning based approach for SC and Pre-thinking for CR. With these fundamental approaches in mind, one will be able to handle the toughest questions on GMAT. Not only do they teach these techniques, but they also provide a framework to work on them until they become second nature to you.

The Quant course is more than adequate. This PACE-enabled course helps you navigate the voluminous Quant curriculum quickly by understanding your strengths and abilities in each sub-topic. e-GMAT's questions in Quant are usually tougher than what we see in GMAT/OG but it never hurts to be over-prepared. If you feel Quant is your weaker area, this course helps you a ton.

Scholarium (e-GMAT's test bank portal) understands you better than you understand yourself. With one quick glance, you can understand what your strengths and weaknesses are and focus accordingly. Trusting Scholarium blindly will make your life easier during your GMAT preparation.

The sigma-X mocks are very close in nature to the actual test. They give you a very good understanding of where you stand and what else is needed.

The Last Mile program (e-GMAT's mentorship program) is icing on the cake. This program helps you during your mocks. Each mock is immediately analyzed and they come up with a customized plan just for you until the next mock.

Rida, my mentor, was very helpful and friendly during this journey. She is experienced and understands the ins and outs of GMAT preparation. She was there whenever I needed her. Having an experienced test taker like Rida as your mentor is a huge plus to your GMAT preparation.

Hey Robu,

Congratulations on reaching the top 3%ile! A GMAT 740 is an amazing score and I am so glad that I could be part of your journey.

Your path to 740 is an embodiment of the phrase “trust the process”. Your score improvement from 590 to 740 goes to show that with diligence, determination and perseverance, nothing is impossible. Your mock scores are testament to the fact that with the right attitude, you can move mountains -

I absolutely love how you were able to focus on the underlying skills required to ace the GMAT – logic and meaning. By focusing on these two aspects, you were able to master GMAT Verbal and reach V40.

I can also clearly see how you combined a structured learning pedagogy with feedback and data from Scholaranium to tackle weak areas with laser-sharp precision.

For example, in RC you saw a potential for improvement in Economics and Business type passages.

As we can see below, by focusing on improvement in this area, you were able to improve your accuracy from 58% to 84%, and also reduce your time from 2 mins to 1min 24s – phenomenal!

Your improvement from Q44( 50th percentile) to Q50 (87th percentile) was a cakewalk, because you made the course work for you by highlighting weak areas and creating a streamlined learning path. You tackled even the toughest questions, so that on D-Day, you were able to attempt every question with ease.

Your willingness to learn new methods, and most importantly, to unlearn old habits sets the foundation for your success.

I wish you all the very best for your MBA endeavors Robu – I cannot wait to see where the future takes you, but I am sure you will plan that journey as successfully as this one.

Regards,
Rida
