My journey from 560 to 700 with e-GMAT

Strengths:

Master comprehension section is truly a game-changer!

Would make the product better:

If the verbal section of the course could be adaptive, that would be even better.

When I began my GMAT journey, I took the GMAT official practice mock test and scored 560 (Q46, V22), slightly less than the global average score of test-takers. I immediately knew that the Verbal section (SC & RC) is my Achilles' heel and needs significant improvement to reach the target score of 660 to be eligible for an MBA course at my target university, The University of Warwick. After spending two months learning from the GMAT Official Guidebook and GMATClub practice forum, I took another mock test once more and was surprised to improve by only 20 points to 580! At this point, I knew my learning method was not right and needed to up my game as I only had slightly more than one month left before my GMAT exam.

It was from GMATClub as well that I found e-GMAT and other courses. In the end, I decided to choose e-GMAT because of the great reviews on its verbal section. Moreover, a friend of mine, now studying for an MBA in a top UK business school, recommends I try e-GMAT. So I think nothing will go wrong and I needed to decide quickly.

I am glad that e-GMAT taught me not only practice questions but also a great understanding of the verbal section from its Master Comprehension. Before this, I did a wrong approach to verbal questions because I never really focused on the meaning of the passage itself, but rather answered by mere instinct. Another plus point was it also improved my daily writing skill to have better clarity and structure! Unfortunately, I cannot say much about the Quantitative section because I skipped the tutorial videos and dive into practice quizzes directly. But, I think Payal and her team did a great job as the section is adaptive, an improvement I'd love to see in the Verbal section as well.

For the mock tests, I can say the Verbal section is at the same level as the official GMAT, while the Quant section seems to be more complex than the official one. Nonetheless, it is a really good practice after all and boosted my confidence significantly before the real test, in which I scored 700 (Q49, V36, IR 5, AWA 5), a 140 points improvement from my initial score!

Overall, I highly recommend the e-GMAT to the GMAT aspirants and some tips for you to ace your test :
1. Start really, really, and really early on your GMAT preparation. At least 6 months of preparation should be ideal.
2. Begin by taking a mock test and understand where your weakness is. Be specific and honest about it, it helps!
3. Pick a course with abundant great reviews, especially a course that guides you through the process of understanding the learning materials.
4. Don't jump between sections before finishing one.
5. It's a good idea to listen to your body and take a break if you start feeling overwhelmed during practice. Enjoy the whole process - it is a marathon and not a sprint.

Dear Lapchiong,

Congrats on the amazing 140-point improvement to GMAT 700!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. We appreciate you mentioning the Master Comprehension Course. Indeed, understanding the verbal section is crucial, and you put all your efforts into developing the right processes and methodologies to ace every subsection. Indeed, looking at your course stats, your dedication to perfection shines through.

This dedication to meaning clearly paid off, as we can see from your SC stats.

We also take pride in the fact that our course helped you improve your daily writing skills, enhancing your clarity and structure. Writing proficiency is a valuable asset, and we are glad that our program had a positive impact on this aspect as well.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the adaptive nature of the verbal section. While our Quantitative section is adaptive, we understand your desire for a similar feature in the Verbal section. We constantly strive to improve our courses based on student feedback, and your suggestion will be taken into serious consideration as we continue to enhance our offerings.

Your tips for success are invaluable, and we completely agree with your advice. Starting early, understanding your weaknesses, and choosing a course that provides a comprehensive learning experience are all crucial steps to ace the GMAT.

Strengths:

This course is great to help build upon your foundation within Quant and Verbal (especially SC). Each video is interactive and data-based so that you stay focused on the right materials. Each question has a thorough explanation and video attached as well as mentors who will respond to follow-up questions from students in case you are still stuck.

Would make the product better:

I would recommend that the GMAT mentors give more specific feedback on how to pivot your strategy when you reach a plateau. Additionally, I wish there were more practice tests than what was provided.

eGMAT was fundamental in helping me build a strong foundation in both Quant and Verbal. I did a Manhattan Online course right before eGMAT and found that it was lacking data-backed algorithms to help tailor where I needed to spend my time. Each video provided thorough explanations of the concept and there were a plethora of quizzes that ensured you understood the concept before moving on. You could also flag which concepts to return back to in the future. The eGMAT mentor that is assigned to you was also helpful in providing general advice and motivation to get you to your end goal.

No Brainer for Verbal

Course e-GMAT Online 360

E-GMAT was and still is one of the highest rated courses one can find on the web and that is how I got introduced to it. For me, verbal was the weakest point, and I was looking for guidance in the same. I was very intrigued by the last mile push program which was advertised to me in the start of my preparation.

The master comprehension course was a ray of hope for me, as it became my ground zero. Instead of worrying about what to do and what not to do, I had a starting point, which in just a few hours of preparation made me confident about myself and built up my skills.

I used the platform for 2 months, and saw a score jump of 90 points. I went from V29 to V38, and it was all thanks to E-GMAT. I did not use the platform much for quants as I was comfortable in it, but the PACE AI found out specific topics I was weak at and gave me a chance to work on them.

Cementing was a fun exercise, as it quantified my prep, I knew if I was going on the right track or not. Overall, the number of specifically selected questions helped me save time.

The highlight of my preparation was the mentorship and Last Mile Push program. I tried to diligently follow the E-GMAT process and trusted the process. I saw immediate results and I contacted the support to get to know about my mentor.

My mentor Akash walked with me on the journey from start till finish, he guided me what questions I should do, where should I do them from, and what should I do based on the results of it. It was really helpful.

Concluding, I would say this course is a no brainer for verbal, it will help you a lot, and you just have to trust the process and never look back!

Dear arnavagr,

Congratulations on the tremendous 90-point improvement to 730! What makes the success all the sweeter is the massive verbal improvement from V29 to V38.

From the start, you displayed the zeal to excel. Be it the time spent on the platform to build the foundation or following a structured approach to master the applications and improve ability – you left no stone unturned.

The evidence of your hard work is clearly visible in RC, where you were able to improve and maintain a consistent 70% + accuracy for hard questions as shown in this image:

Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Arnav-Hard-Accuracy-in-RC

I am really glad that Master Comprehension laid the foundation for the whole of verbal, and you were able to then learn concepts and then master application through cementing. See how this graded approach helped you excel across all sub-sections in verbal paving way to the V38:

Image Link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Arnav-Excellent-Verbal-Stats-in-Scholaranium

It is commendable that knowing that you were starting out at a higher ability in quants, you leveraged the PACE feature to selectively identify and work on your weaker areas. This ensured that you could score a Q50 in a predictable fashion.

Arnav, it has been a pleasure working with you through the Last Mile Push program and I am happy that all your hard work paid off!

I, on behalf of the entire e-GMAT family wish you all the best for all your future endeavours.

Best Regards,
Akash Agarwal

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Course e-GMAT Online Intensive

I have divided my review into the following categories:

1. User Interface
It took me some time (3-4 days) to get used to their interface. Some of their videos, especially Concept Videos of Sentence Correction, don’t have a “Playback Speed” option. This worked out in my favour, since I soon realised that you need to give yourself some time to register SC concepts, and watching the Concept videos (of SC) in the original speed is the best way to do that.

2. Course Structure
They have structured all the sections of their course really well. There are easy quizzes after every concept which test your conceptual understanding at a very basic level. And after every completing every topic (eg. SC), you are advised to take Cementing Quizzes before moving to the next topic. This structure helps you cement each topic, making revision in the later stages very easy. The same structure has been used for both the sections (Quant and Verbal), just that in Quant and RC, there are a lot more quizzes within each topic.
The question pool of EGMAT for all the sections is absolute gold. You can also select the type of ‘Question Pool’ (Correct, Incorrect, Bookmarked, Answered, Unanswered, Answered & Unanswered) for Custom Quizzes. This is really helpful in revision. Also, you can select the mode in which you want to take the quiz (Practice vs. Quiz Mode) – again, very helpful for revision.

3. Content – Verbal
Sentence Correction – The meaning-based approach used by EGMAT was really helpful. Also, the concepts were explained in the best way possible, not going into too much depth while still ensuring that you understand the concept – just what is needed for the exam! Almost all the concepts tested in my actual exam and all the mocks I took (including OG mocks) were covered properly in the course.
CR – They suggest that you use a ‘Pre-Thinking Approach’ to solve CR questions. This approach is really helpful in the earlier stages of your prep since at that point, you have time to train your brain. Once you get used to this approach, even if you don’t pre-think, you will be able to evaluate the answer choices in a better way. I did not use the pre-thinking approach in my mocks and actual exam since you can’t spend more than 2-2.5 mins on a question but the approach definitely trained me to evaluate the answer choices more effectively.
RC – While I watched all the conceptual videos, I did not go into too much depth while preparing for this section. I relied mostly on solving questions for this section so cannot comment on their content for RC. The passages were good though, and the questions prepared me well for the exam.

4. Content – Quant
The Conceptual videos in this section (for all the topics except Word Problems – I did not watch conceptual videos on Word Problems since I was already pretty good in this topic) are very basic. Perhaps, if you are good at Quant, you don’t even need to watch all the videos, you can just download Summary PDFs available at the end of each concept and quickly go through those just to make sure that you’re not missing anything. Also, there are ‘Diagnostic Quizzes’ before every concept. These quizzes evaluate the level of your current understanding and accordingly suggest you to skip some sections, wherever possible. This saves a lot of time.
That being said, Quant quizzes were really helpful. I would say that some questions are slightly difficult than those in the actual exam but this prepares you well for the exam. I took a lot of quizzes for Quant as well and found them to be really useful.

5. Mocks
I think that the Sigma X Mocks are an accurate indicator of your actual performance since my scores in the Sigma-X Mocks, the OG Mocks and the actual exam were pretty similar. The questions in the mocks were good as well.

6. Last Mile Push (LMP) Program
After I scored a 760 in Sigma X Mock 2 (towards the end of April), Abha Mohan from eGMAT reached out to me. She asked me a few questions on my background and Prep. She had also gone through my performance in the eGMAT quizzes and Mock and identified a few areas of improvement. Basis this, she shared a few suggestions.
I was struggling with the timing in my mocks and her suggestions related to that really helped. She was quite proactive in identifying my areas of improvement and very honest while sharing the feedback.
I was offered this Program for free (in the beginning of May), and this program gave me a proper test schedule to follow after I was done with my preparation. The schedule was good but not something you NEED for your preparation. You can make the schedule yourself as well.
In my opinion, LMP is a good program to enrol in but only if you’re offered the program at a reasonable price.

P.S. I bought the GMAT Online Focused Course (2 months) initially but extended it 3 times (1-month extensions).

Hi snehilrelan,

Congratulations on the 760!!

Thank you for your valuable feedback. I am glad to know the course structure helped you to build a solid foundation and the cementing quizzes further helped to enhance your ability for each of the sub-sections.

You truly immersed yourself in the processes and concepts. I am pleased to know the meaning-based approach in SC helped and the concepts covered in our course aligned well with both your mocks and the actual test. Here is an image where you can be seen consistently performing exceptionally well on the SC questions.

I appreciate your feedback on the pre-thinking methodology of CR. It's encouraging to know that this approach helped you evaluate answer choices more effectively.

Regarding Quants, which was your stronger section from start, you left no stone unturned and worked on all your lingering weak areas by leveraging the Quant 2.0 P.A.C.E. enabled system. Here is an image where you have saved 9 hours of total preparation time in the NP Course.

Throughout your preparations, you completed each step with utmost sincerity and diligence. I am happy to see all your hard work has paid off well.

It was a memorable experience engaging with you in the LM program and I wish you all the best for all your future endeavors.

Strengths:

1. Well Structured
2. Flexible
3. Mentorship for students

Would make the product better:

1. Hard Level Verbal Questions
2. Engagement with students while teaching basics

I came to E-GMAT with a score of 710 already in hand. I had completed Manhattan Book set 6th edition, OG material and GMAT Ninja Videos but was clueless on how to achieve my target score of a 770. After realizing that I was in desperate need of a mentor who could help me understand the gaps in my preparation, I landed up on the e-GMAT course and was offered a free mentorship program by them. Within the first 7 days of my enrollment, I was allotted Rashmi Vaidya as my mentor.
This turned out to be the best decision of my entire preparation. Rashmi was to me what Ramakant Achrekar was to Sachin. She left no stone unturned in helping me reach my target. From convincing Subject Matter Experts to have one-on-one sessions with me for hours just to fill in preparation gaps, to going out of the way to get me extensions on my course, to counselling me on various occasion to keep me motivated, Rashmi was rock solid dedicated to help me achieve my dream score. I was pretty sure she would have arranged for a Mars Rover had I asked for one during my preparation.
Although the mentorship was the best thing I could ask for, I did feel that the quality of 700+ level questions on e-GMAT especially on verbal could have been more reflective of the actual GMAT content. But I would highly vouch for the course for anyone who is on track to build basics. The entire course was well structured and all modules beautifully crafted. The products that e-GMAT has developed especially the scholaranium are awe-inspiring.
Overall, I would highly recommend the course, especially the mentorship program, to someone stuck in a similar situation.

Dear jasmeetsingh0790,

Congratulations on the 740 – I know the journey hasn’t been easy. But kudos to you for not having given up and persevering to get to what only the top 3% of the test-takers achieve. It has been a pleasure working with you in this journey toward excellence.

You had a good head start with a score of 710, but you didn't let it distract you from meeting the current needs. Recognizing that SC was one of the weaker areas, you did the entire course – starting with foundational concepts and applications and then building it up to a 90th percentile ability through cementing. This image showing improvement in SC accuracy is a testament to your hard work and dedication:

Image Link: https://success.e-gmat.com/Jasmeet-Solid-Foundation-Equals-Great-Ability

Even in RC, where you faced a lot of challenges, you were able to leverage the Subject matter sessions to improve to the 85th percentile. This image shows the progression of your ability in RC owing to the dedicated efforts:

Image link: https://success.e-gmat.com/Jasmeet-Progression-of-RC-Accuracy

Thank you for your feedback on the improvement points – we are in the continual journey of improving ourselves and your honest feedback will help us with this. That said, I am glad that all the hard work and dedication have paid off and the score gives you a fighting chance to get into the program of your choice.

I wish you all the best for your forthcoming application and interview rounds.

My journey from 650 to 710!

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Improvement 60 Points

Course e-GMAT Online 360

Location Online

My GMAT journey began in 2021 when I started preparing using an online teaching course from a private institution. Within 5 months of preparation, I took the GMAT and scored a 650 (Q 48, V 31). I was definitely unhappy with the score and was sure that I needed to re-attempt. Post that, I tried to prepare again by myself using the available resources but due to lack of consistency and a guided approach, I never went forward with another attempt. Just when I almost gave up on GMAT, a friend who got success with eGMAT suggested that I give it one last shot. That’s when I signed up for the eGMAT (GMAT Online 360) course.

Once I signed up, the onboarding process started. At first, I gave a SIGMA-X mock and I understood where I stand and how far I am from my goal. I was then assigned a Strategy Expert, Akash, who analyzed my entire mock and gave me a way forward about how I should start with my course. First, I prepared a customized day-by-day study plan for myself which gave me visibility and a guided approach on how much time I need to dedicate each day. I initially started with Verbal as it was my weakest area. The eGMAT Master Comprehension helped me strengthen my basics. The structured approach - Practice File, Application Files followed by the Cementing Quiz- is where eGMAT excels at. At every stage there’s a threshold for Medium and Hard difficulty which you need to clear to progress forward. In case you fail to follow that, the strategy expert is just an email away and will share an improvement plan for you based on where you stand. There’s a similar approach for Quant as well. The eGMAT P.A.C.E module helps you save significant time with Quant and helps you focus on your weaker areas. After almost 4 months of prep, I took the GMAT and scored a 710 (Q49, V36)!

Here’s are some aspects of eGMAT that helped me:

1) Dedicated strategy expert: Akash, my strategy expert was more like that one person who helped me understand where I faltered and what I needed to focus on. Analyzing my mocks was one thing I was amiss and he was available to analyze each mock and suggest areas of focus and improvement.

2) Sigma-X mocks: The post analysis that these mocks provide is very similar to how your ESR would look like. It gave me an idea which quartile was bad for me, helped me figure out where I took the most time and how was the progression during my mock. This actually gave me visibility on what I need to focus on in my next mock and areas of improvement too.

3) eGMAT Scholaranium: The collection of questions for each subsection, the quality of questions and the level of each question - all of this together especially for Verbal stands apart and gives you ample of questions to practice, review, and replay questions. You can also create custom quizzes to focus on weaker topics and also get topic wise breakdown of your performance.

4) The eGMAT approach: The sentence structure approach for SC, the pre-thinking approach for CR or strategies such as keyword and predictive approach for RC - you might consider it time consuming but as you keep on practicing it becomes a part of your approach while solving questions and makes the approach very structured.

Overall, the eGMAT course is definitely a course one should look at incase you’re struggling with your prep (especially Verbal) and need a guided approach. However, it does demand consistency and applying whatever you learn to get the desired results. I would suggest that you don't rush through the course and give it enough time during your prep journey and only when you’re confident about a particular subsection, move forward to the next. I expected my prep would end in 2 months since it was a re-attempt but I finished it in 4 months. It will be frustrating at times, but hold on to it and don’t give up, and you won’t be disappointed. And one last piece of advice: please maintain an Error Log, it definitely helps!

Congratulations on your score of 710 with a remarkable Q49 and a V36!

Thank you for your kind words and we at e-GMAT are proud to be a part of your success.

I am so glad you understood that GMAT preparation requires time, and you were always willing to understand where you were going wrong and where you could improve in Verbal. You used the Scholaranium analytics to understand that Parallelism and Comparisons were your weaker areas in SC and then you improved your accuracy in them from 57% to 88% by practicing the meaning-based approach on a regular basis –

Strengths:

Comprehensive Verbal Curriculum, Scholaranium and Skill Data, and Personalized mentoring

Would make the product better:

The e-GMAT course is perfect. No suggestions from my side on how to improve it further.

I, a 23-year-old student from Germany, am excited to share my GMAT journey. In the final stage of my test preparation, I enrolled in e-GMAT's GMAT Online 360 course, which proved to be a game-changer. Upon purchasing the course on May 6, 2023, I acquired two months of access to their extensive resources. With e-GMAT's help, my first attempt score of 620 (Q48, V27) significantly improved to 690 (Q49, V35, AWA 6, IR 5) within just 18 days between attempts. Starting in January with a raw score of 540, I studied intermittently for the GMAT for about 3–4 months, with a one-month gap due to university exams and a critical medical condition. Despite a lack of sleep and test anxiety during my first attempt on May 4, I stayed determined to enhance my verbal skills. By dedicating 9–10 hours daily for around 15 days, I was able to achieve a 690 score. I am immensely grateful to e-GMAT for providing invaluable guidance throughout my preparation. My mentor, Dhruv, guided my efforts in the best direction, allowing me to draw upon the limited time available and maximize my efforts.

I found e-GMAT's meaning-based approach and pre-thinking framework to be particularly valuable in addressing complex Sentence Correction (SC) and Critical Reasoning (CR) questions. Thanks to e-GMAT's guidance, my accuracy in SC improved significantly, and I gained confidence in tackling challenging CR questions. The application files and practice files provided after the concept files were instrumental in helping me apply the appropriate approach to each question type. These resources, among many others, were immensely beneficial in my preparation journey.

The Cementing phase played a pivotal role in my verbal preparation. Solving several cementing quizzes and reviewing my solutions in depth allowed me to internalize problem-solving approaches effectively. The invaluable insights I gained about my strengths and weaknesses in specific sections allowed me to refine my study plan and seize the "low-hanging fruits`". At the same time, I efficiently allocated enough mental energy towards enhancing other areas.
I must stress the immense influence of my dedicated mentor, Dhruv, who has been with me since day one. In the beginning, Dhruv crafted a personalized study plan designed to optimize my progress within the limited 18-day timeframe. Recognizing both the time constraints and my abilities, Dhruv meticulously devised study plans for each of the three verbal sections and adapted them according to my requirements. Thanks to Dhruv's guidance, I was able to effectively maximize my learning outcomes.

For aspiring GMAT test-takers, I would like to share a few tips based on my personal experience. Firstly, establish a consistent study routine and adhere to it diligently. Recognize the immense value of consistency in internalizing the various approaches to the GMAT's diverse question types. Secondly, engage in regular practice using trustworthy resources like e-GMAT's Scholaranium, focusing on quality rather than quantity. Particularly in the verbal section, understanding why incorrect answers are wrong and why the correct ones are right is crucial. Hence, it is pivotal to review and analyse not only the incorrect questions but also those that took longer to answer or required guessing. Finally, implement the e-GMAT's meaning-based approach and pre-thinking framework, as they can substantially improve your accuracy and, over time, speed, and adhere to the e-GMAT’s 3-step process — Concept files, Cementing, and Test-readiness — a sound and reliable process that aids you in mastering the underlying abilities required for scoring well in the GMAT.

To sum up, e-GMAT’s online 360 course provided me with a unique learning experience. Through their 3-step process, comprehensive study materials, and invaluable mentorship from Dhruv, I was able to achieve my target score within a remarkably short timeframe. The meaning-based approach and pre-thinking framework were instrumental in helping me improve my accuracy. Moreover, the invaluable insights provided by Scholaranium analytics and personalized mentoring from Dhruv accelerated my progress substantially. I highly recommend e-GMAT to GMAT aspirants seeking a comprehensive and tailored learning path to reach their target scores.

My GMAT journey has been a long one, and I am incredibly grateful to e-GMAT for their invaluable support. Without them, I would have doubted my ability to reach the finish line.

One of the most remarkable aspects of e-GMAT is their meticulous and systematic approach to each section of the GMAT. The course material is thoughtfully organized, starting with the fundamentals and gradually progressing to more advanced concepts. This logical progression allowed me to develop a solid foundation and enhance my understanding of the intricate nuances involved in SC, CR, and RC questions. The video lessons provided clear, concise, and engaging explanations, making complex concepts easily understandable. Additionally, e-GMAT's comprehensive cementing quizzes and customizable practice quizzes allowed me to apply the learned concepts and effectively track my progress. The detailed explanations for both correct and incorrect answer choices were instrumental in identifying and addressing my weaknesses proactively.

Furthermore, I must commend e-GMAT for their hyper-personalized learning plans and the exceptional 1:1 support provided through the Last Mile Program. The guidance and assistance I received from Rashmi, in particular, were invaluable. Having struggled to achieve my desired score in previous attempts, I was feeling disheartened and uncertain about my potential for improvement. However, Rashmi's expertise as a tutor not only boosted my confidence but also led to a significant improvement in my scores.

Right from the beginning, Rashmi demonstrated a deep understanding of the GMAT exam structure, content, and effective study strategies. What truly set her apart was her considerate and personalized approach. She took into account my work schedule and commitments, creating a study plan that perfectly aligned with my availability. This tailored approach made it easier for me to dedicate time to GMAT preparation without overwhelming my existing responsibilities.

Moreover, despite my past disappointments, Rashmi motivated me to give it another try and helped me regain my confidence. Her genuine belief in my abilities provided the push I needed to persevere, and it ultimately made a significant difference in my final GMAT performance.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend e-GMAT for anyone embarking on their GMAT journey. Their meticulous approach, comprehensive content, and exceptional support truly make them stand out. With e-GMAT's guidance, I not only developed a strong foundation in SC, CR, and RC but also gained the confidence to overcome my challenges and achieve my desired score. Thank you, e-GMAT, and a special thank you to Rashmi for your exceptional assistance and unwavering support throughout my GMAT preparation.

Strengths:

Verbal: Meaning based approach is exceptionally good. This approach strengthens your basics and is not only useful for SC but also useful for the entire Verbal section

Would make the product better:

I would love to see a few more of those sigma X mocks - In my case at least, the mocks were very close indicators of my actual performance on the D-day!

My GMAT journey started about 10 months ago when I decided to take a shot. I gave my first paper in the month of Aug-22 and scored a 640. I had underestimated the test and quickly decided to research online and heard about E-GMAT from a friend. I took the course in Sep-22.
Somehow my preparation was half hearted and when I gave my second attempt in Nov-22, I scored a 640 again.
I decided to take a break for a month and go through each and every section of Verbal and Quant on E-GMAT platform thoroughly. But alas, when I gave a Sigma X mock test in Mar-23, I scored a 640!
My heart sunk into dejection and I didn't know how to approach the test - That is when I connected with a mentor, Akash, from E-GMAT.
The reason I wanted to share a quick summary of my journey before sharing a review is that, GMAT is a test of many aspects - Perseverance, Time management, concepts, practice... I think E-GMAT approaches the test in a holistic manner as it should, and helps you improve.
It has a very thoughtful concept learning platform and utilizes data in a very efficient manner. For example, E-GMAT uses something called a cementing technique – You go through their courses, cement that particular section using their cementing quizzes and then move onto the next section. You can keep solving a few questions once in every 3-4 days so that you don’t lose touch.
Their Sigma X mocks are quite accurate in judging your ability – I’d suggest aspirants don’t waste them!
And of course there’s this unique mentor support! – You get assigned a mentor who’ll check on your progress and also suggest improvement plans.
Coming back to my story, Akash gave me a study plan which I followed rigorously, and in about a month and a half, I could feel the difference in my ability. I was able to identify the incorrect options more confidently and I was also able to manage my time better...
I finally gave my GMAT on the 28th of Apr-23 and scored a 710 (V37 Q49). I think E-GMAT not only helped me with the concepts but also with the motivation levels (Trust me, this is very important). The process may seem cumbersome at the beginning but it will definitely yield results once you get enough practice.
I'm giving another attempt to get to that 750+ level and I'm sure E-GMAT will play a big part in this Journey of mine as well!
Kudos to the team for creating a well-crafted study platform and an ethos of learning!
Cheers!

Would make the product better:

The course becomes monotonous in betwen the prep. The creators should give a option to skip some of the videos according to the performance in the cementing quizzes.

I recently embarked on a challenging journey to conquer the GMAT exam, and I can confidently say that e-GMAT was the key to my success. With its comprehensive resources and effective strategies, e-GMAT helped me improve my verbal score from V-27 to an impressive V-38, as well as enhance my performance in the quantitative section.

The e-GMAT platform offers a wealth of study materials tailored specifically for the GMAT. The verbal section, in particular, exceeded my expectations. The Sentence Correction (SC) module was a game-changer for me. It provided me with a structured approach to tackle SC questions and enabled me to identify common errors with ease. The explanations accompanying each question were clear, concise, and enabled me to understand the underlying grammar concepts thoroughly.

e-GMAT's Reading Comprehension (RC) section was equally remarkable. It offers an extensive collection of passages, allowing me to practice various topics and gain familiarity with the different question types. The detailed solutions provided for each question were invaluable in honing my comprehension skills and improving my accuracy. The strategies I learned helped me develop a systematic approach to tackle RC passages effectively.

When it comes to the Critical Reasoning (CR) section, e-GMAT stands out yet again. The course provided a comprehensive breakdown of the various question types and equipped me with the necessary tools to dissect arguments, identify assumptions, and evaluate the strength of reasoning. The interactive quizzes and practice questions gave me ample opportunities to reinforce my learning and track my progress.

Moving on to the quantitative section, e-GMAT didn't disappoint. The Quant module covers all the essential topics tested on the GMAT, presenting them in a clear and concise manner. The instructional videos were engaging and made complex concepts easier to understand. Additionally, the practice questions at the end of each lesson allowed me to apply what I had learned and reinforce my understanding. The personalized progress tracking feature helped me identify my areas of weakness and focus my efforts accordingly.

One of the standout features of e-GMAT is the Scholaranium, a powerful practice platform that allowed me to fine-tune my skills. With its vast question bank, I was able to create custom quizzes based on specific topics or difficulty levels, enabling me to target my weak areas effectively. The detailed analytics and performance metrics provided insights into my progress, helping me identify areas that required further attention.

What truly sets e-GMAT apart is its exceptional customer support. The team was always prompt in addressing my queries and concerns, providing me with valuable guidance and support throughout my preparation journey.
