A Balanced Detailed Course

When I started my process for GMAT and MBA, I did not really know all my options about which course to take to study for the GMAT. Being out of college for almost 4 years and having no quant in college meant I needed help for the GMAT.

Upon a friend's recommendation I tried the free e-GMAT access. It was quite detailed and slightly overwhelming but I knew that I needed to deep dive into concepts and then practice to hit my target score of 730+. So I chose e-GMAT.

The on-boarding was very smooth. There is a specific instruction on how to use the course and test your "test-readiness". Do not ignore these instructions like I did. It is very useful and tells you exactly how to self-evaluate in each section and sub-section, and gives you important tips on maintaining the error log.

A singular instance stands out to me where after 3 months of study, I still scored only a 570 in a mock test and I reached out to the support team at e-GMAT, in a state of panic. I got a very detailed e-mail and action points on how to get better and where I am lacking. I followed the instructions to the letter and I immediately went up to 690, and that's when I booked my first GMAT test.

Pros: (i) very responsive support team, (ii) very detailed quant and verbal, (iii) break-down of each concept. The sigma mocks are very good - and will give you a break down of each section where improvement is required. Take these suggestions very seriously and you should see an improvement in your scores.

Cons: some concepts may be too detailed but it worked for me.
