I had a 710 (89th - Q50 V35) on the Classic GMAT. I wanted an improvement in scores while applying to schools this year. I was considering multiple prep providers before zeroing in on e-GMAT. I think the pricing was better as well compared to the other courses I looked at.

One thing that I was definitely looking for was a structured approach to learning across sections, and glad to say I was pretty satisfied with what e-GMAT offered.
It starts off with a mock test to analyze your strengths and weaknesses - the learning plan is made accordingly. I also took the LMP Option as I thought it would be more focused and dedicated, with a mentor to guide me better.

Some context : At first, I was fairly confident on my Quant and DI, and thought I needed help only with verbal. But the mocks made me realize otherwise - after a couple of mocks, I found that my speed in DI was not good enough. And my plan was made accordingly as well.

I’d attribute my entire verbal score increase (74th to 94th percentile) to this course. I was able to learn almost all CR concepts and techniques to tackle both CR and RC questions through the video lessons. The cementing quizzes were particularly helpful in my verbal prep. My mentor Rida, also helped identify and prioritize specific focus areas in verbal.

I was parallelly able to work on my DI speeds as well through the cementing quizzes. The best part about cementing quizzes is that you can customize the difficulty and timing - helps in understanding where the problem lies.

While I was hoping for a 725/735, I guess after a point you can’t really control what happens in the exam room.

Overall, the course really helped in identifying my strengths and weaknesses, and in having a focused preparation strategy.
