Quant methodology and strategies

e-GMAT follows a three-step process, which comprises Concept Files, Cementing, and Test Readiness. The first step comprises learning concepts in the form of very well-defined and interesting video lectures, notes, and quizzes. The course also has functionality, which by using various quizzes helped me to understand my current strengths and weaknesses in a topic, and accordingly, it suggests the topics I could skip and topics I should cover in order to bridge the gaps in the least amount of time. In this stage, I was able to understand each concept thoroughly and build a solid foundation required for acing GMAT.

In the Cementing phase, the course allowed me to apply those learned concepts in more GMAT like questions in a timely manner, building my problem-solving skills, enhancing my speed, and improving accuracy in both Quant and Verbal sections.

In the test readiness stage, I used the course's data analytics tool to understand the areas where I was weak and more focus was required, and I used custom Scholaranium quizzes to improve my ability in those areas. The mocks included in this course are computer adaptive tests and follow algorithms very similar to the those of official GMAT exam. Egmat Mocks are very accurate predictors of actual GMAT score and provide in-depth data analysis which is very similar to ESR.

While learning a new skill we are bound to make errors but the key to ace GMAT is to learn from our errors and do not repeat them. For this process, EGMAT suggests the use of error logs and provides very good templates to maintain error logs. Maintaining and revising error logs made me understand the mistakes in my approach and the wrong patterns that I was unconsciously repeating.

Strengths:

The verbal modules, particularly the SC and CR sections, are well structured.
e-GMAT mock tests are reliable.
The questions featured in Scholaranium match the standards set by official questions.

Would make the product better:

I recommend implementing a feature that allows users to increase the playback speed of videos in the core e-GMAT modules.

I took my first GMAT attempt on December 5th, 2022, just before the round 2 deadlines. Initially, my preparation solely relied on studying a grammar module I found online. Unfortunately, my results, especially in the verbal section, fell short of my target score. Recognizing my lack of strategy, I understood the need for a more comprehensive approach.

After extensive research, I chose e-GMAT as my preferred prep solution, and it proved to be an excellent decision. The most valuable aspect of e-GMAT for me was its structured problem-solving process. The meaning-based approach for Sentence Correction (SC) and the pre-thinking step for Critical Reasoning (CR) were precisely what I needed. I thoroughly covered both the SC and CR sections. The content was well-structured, breaking down complex concepts into manageable, smaller parts.

In addition to the theory, the Verbal Scholaranium section offered a wealth of questions comparable in quality to official ones. Keeping error logs and attempting both cementing and custom quizzes added significant value to my preparation. Thanks to thoroughly covering the e-GMAT verbal section, I achieved a remarkable 10-point improvement in my verbal scaled score, rising from 31 to 41. I highly recommend e-GMAT.

Strengths:

The Verbal section was good, especially the practice questions after each section. Helped me build my knowledge step by step.

Would make the product better:

I prefer to read and learn at my own pace. E-Gmat mostly has video explanations for everything. Though they did have written explanations for lots of questions, I would love to see more of that so people have the option to read or watch a video.

Quant: I didn't really do most of the Lessons for quant from e-gmat, but I did do practice questions for all topics, and those were nothing to complain about. All questions had good explanations.

Verbal: I did all the lessons for verbal, and it really helped me. The questions were well explained and the content was quite good as well. I really used to struggle with SC, but all the tips and tricks taught in the course helped me improve. I didn't really retain most of the grammar rules by the end of the course, but I did gain an understanding of how to go about solving a question and analyzing the problems.

Hey everyone! I recently took the GMAT and scored a 700, which is a 10-point improvement from my previous score of 690. I scored 690 two times before joining e-gmat. Before going through with e-gmat, I went through many reviews posted on Gmat Club and found e-gmat would be a good platform for me to improve my verbal score. I first had my ESR analyzed by Dhruv Joshi, who was also my mentor for the preparation journey. He curated a plan to make sure I solidified my verbal skills.

The E-gmat course was very structured, having modules for each topic. One thing that stood out to me was the content. Everything was covered properly, and their meaning-based approach to every question helped me a lot. I was struggling in CR before, but the pre-thinking framework that is taught in e-gmat helped me with CR tremendously. Their cementing quizzes made sure that I solidified my learning.

Their quant course content is also really good. And the Sigma-X mocks closely mimic the real GMAT. I would suggest they add the AWA and IR sections as well to the mocks. Also, it would be better if the response times to emails by the support team were a bit faster.

My mentor, Dhruv Joshi, has been very helpful to me in this journey, as he guided me in the best way possible.

Overall, I was happy with the course and recommend others also to give it a try.

Strengths:

1. Course structure is excellent
2. I highly recommend their mentorship program
3. I really like the AI functionality in the Quant section
4. Verbal Prep is on point, especially for SC and CR
5. Difficulty of their mock tests is similar to the actual exam’s difficulty

Would make the product better:

1. Maybe need some work on the RC section prep
2. Should think about offering the basic mentorship program at a much cheaper cost so that all students can benefit

I’m really grateful to e-GMAT for helping me through this journey. I’m a working professional in the finance industry with limited availability of free time, especially on weekdays. I was looking for a solution that helps me stick to my preparation timeline and provides me with a structured course to follow without me having to spend time figuring out what I need to study next. e-GMAT met my objectives perfectly. I had a mentor assigned by e-GMAT, Akash Aggarwal, who constantly pushed me to commit a certain number of hours per week for the GMAT prep. Also, the course structure of e-GMAT is so easy to follow. You just need to trust the process.

To be honest, my GMAT prep journey was anything but smooth. In all, my prep time was about 9 months. It included 3 months of no prep due to work commitments. Frankly, it was frustrating at times given the impact of these uncontrollable events on my prep timeline. However, the regular check-ins with Akash and his guidance really helped me push through this journey. I did give an attempt after my 8 months of prep. However, due to the final day exam anxiety, I panicked in the verbal section and, as a result, I had to cancel my score. I was really disappointed and was probably thinking about not giving another attempt. However, Akash made me realize that I was test ready and that I had to just work on my mindset for the final day. Thus, I prepped for one more month and gave another attempt, in which I was much more under control and ended up doing well.

For me, e-GMAT played the following three important roles in my journey:
1. Provided a highly structured course
2. Assigned me Akash as my mentor (I highly recommend him in case you end up opting for the e-GMAT’s mentorship program!!!)
3. Offered an excellent preparation module for the verbal section (was really important to me given I’m a non-native English speaker)

If you’re thinking about giving GMAT and are in the similar boat I was (working professional, limited time availability, non-native speaker), I highly recommend subscribing to e-GMAT.

Strengths:

- Course Content
- Course structure (3 stage learning)
- Mentorship
- Mocks Quality
- PACE Learning in Quant
- Skill Analysis

Would make the product better:

Error logs can be made a part of the course structure itself, where we are able to log reasons where the question went wrong.

The course content by egmat is extremely comprehensive and covers all aspects needed score 700+. I found the user interface better than any other prep company which was a big plus point.

I also liked the way the course is structured i.e. Learning, Cementing and Test Readiness, which ensures all weak areas are covered with multiple attempts.

The quality of questions is top notch and almost GMAT Like in Verbal. In Quant, they equip you with all the concepts really well, I was able to improve on almost all of my weak areas just with the course content.

The mentorship provided by my mentor Ms. Abha Mohan was very valuable. She guided me with corrective actions whenever I was in doubt or going the wrong way.

The mocks that come with the course are GMAT Like and the score prediction is spot on. The Skill data analysis and details of attempt post every mock is an added bonus which can really help to identify grey areas.

I recently embarked on the challenging journey of preparing for the GMAT, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to enroll in the e-GMAT's Online 360 course. This comprehensive program was nothing short of a game-changer for me, helping me boost my GMAT score by a whopping 100 points, ultimately achieving a score of 730.

Here are some key aspects of the e-GMAT course that I found particularly impressive:

I am incredibly grateful for the unwavering support and guidance that Dhruv provided throughout my preparation journey. He motivated and inspired me, even during the most challenging moments of my GMAT preparation. He instilled in me a sense of confidence and determination, reminding me that I had the potential to excel in the GMAT.

In conclusion, e-GMAT has proven to be a game-changer in my GMAT preparation journey.

Thank you, e-GMATfor helping me reach my GMAT goals!

Strengths:

> Well-structured study plan
> Good question base and explanations
> Verification that you have truly understood the concepts & can put them to use.

I started e-GMAT after a recommendation of a friend. The flow of the e-GMAT course was truly user-friendly. It began with a mock to get my current status, then as per my estimated required score, it helped me plan a schedule which could work together with my day job.
The ordering of the course and the emphasis on fundamentals helped me a lot as I often ignored minor mistakes as flukes or speeding errors. Using "strategic pausing" and "pre-thinking" drastically changed the way how I was attempting questions in Verbal and also allowed me to score well.
Another aspect that I liked about e-GMAT is the Cementing Quizzes. Even when we complete the study material, it is difficult to be confident about it & we often doubt if we can perform well in the actual situation. Cementing quizzes and Yes/No loops were very helpful for that since I had to take a break from studying in between and I wasn't sure about the material that I covered previously. After the quizzes, I could identify my weak points and focus on improving them, which saved me a lot of time.
For anyone who wants a self-paced yet organised way of preparing for GMAT, I would highly recommend e-GMAT.

Strengths:

Flexible for someone with not a lot of time.
Many practice questions with excellent explanations.
Amazing learning modules of the concepts.

Would make the product better:

More clarity on how to make the most of the custom quizzes and all of the practice questions.

Hello all! Last week I took the GMAT for the second time and managed to score 760 (V44, Q49), up from 710 in my previous attempt. For my preparation, I mainly relied on E-GMAT. I would like to share what this preparation looked like.
I started my GMAT journey back in March 2023. I approached my preparation with no rush as I was not clear, and still am not clear, when I would be applying to an MBA program. I recently graduated from college and simply wanted to “get the GMAT out of the way” and make use of the 5-year window it has. Another relevant piece of information of my preparation is that I was working full-time throughout my preparation, so time was an issue.
When I started choosing a GMAT preparation course, I had a preconceived notion that the most important thing for preparation was practice. I also needed a course that I could take at my own rhythm due to my lack of time. Because E-GMAT had the most practice questions among the courses I was considering and because of its flexibility, I enrolled to E-GMAT.
Coming into the preparation, my weakest part was verbal, specifically sentence correction. When I started the course, I realized that practice alone was not enough and that there were several conceptual gaps I had to attack first. E-GMAT’s structured course was perfect to attack these gaps. All of the modules were very helpful.
Even though making sure all the conceptual knowledge is clear was essential, the practice that came afterward was as well. I took my first attempt of the GMAT when I had not gone through enough practice, and hence, did not get my target score. After that, my focus was primarily in practicing. For this, the E-GMAT platform is perfect. Being able to create custom quizzes tailored to once needs was super helpful. Although the amount of option for these quizzes might be a bit overwhelming at first.
Lastly, a key part of the preparation was the actions taken after taking any practice quiz, which are extensively recommended by E-GMAT. This key part was making sure I truly understood the answer of every single practice question I took, even if I got them right.
In short, the E-GMAT course manages to tackle all of the key needs of a successful GMAT preparation.

I have divided my review into the following segments:

1. Course Structure
The structure of the content has been designed very well. Across both Quant and Verbal, there were ability quizzes along with cementing quizzes that helped identify the preparation level and provided detailed information about the key areas of mistakes and timing issues. The question pool is great with options to select the type of questions (Correct, Incorrect etc). Moreover, the mode of quizzes and video solutions helped enhanced the overall learning experience.
2. Content – Verbal
Sentence Correction – The meaning-based approach was quite helpful. I was able to apply the relevant concepts and use the three-step process across most of the questions that enhanced my SC score in the exams.
CR – The Pre-thinking approach is quite effective. After struggling with CR in the initial stages, I began to apply pre-thinking approach more consciously that improved my accuracy. The approach helped me eliminate the irrelevant answer choices and evaluate the correct choices in a better way.
RC – The passages in the quizzes and mocks were of a good level and provided effective practice for the real exam.

3. Content – Quant
For Quants, the quizzes were most helpful. The type of questions are relatively difficult compared to the real exam but it helped me prepare well for the exam and improved my timing. Taking a good amount of quizzes across all the topics helped me identify the key strength and weakness.

4. Mocks
The Sigma X mocks are a good indicator of the actual performance of the exam. The mocks provide ESR analysis along with detailed solutions and timing distribution that helped me understand my improvement areas. I was able to focus on specific topics of CR and SC through the mock analysis provided.

5. Last Mile Push (LMP) Program
After I had completed my preparation and began with the final lap of my preparation, I had reached out to E-GMAT team for certain improvement strategies. Rashmi from E-GMAT team contacted me and we started with the LMP program. Since I was struggling with time in mocks and faced difficulty in certain areas of Verbal, she helped me identify where I was going wrong and provided detailed study plan to be followed. She was very proactive in taking a regular progress check and gave effective suggestions such as practicing LSAT passages for RC and following strict timing rules for every block of questions in the verbal section. Additionally, the importance of letting go of questions that I was unsure of and keeping a positive mindset helped me on the D-day. The program was one of the best part of my preparation phase as it gave me a structured schedule and distributed my study plan uniformly through all sections.
In my opinion, LMP is a great program to enroll for improving test-taking strategies and streamlining the preparation plan.
