Thanks to e-GMAT, I went from a 580 (Sigma Mock) score to a GMAT 730. I am an orthodontist by profession and after years of dentistry, getting back into the examination mode was an uphill task. However, the mentorship I received from the e-GMAT team helped me achieve a 730 on the GMAT.

Improvement in Verbal Section:
I followed the personalized study plan which was based on my diagnostic quiz results and my current skill set. After going through the concepts file I went ahead with the diagnostic and cementing quizzes. I improved from V 31 to V 41 in verbal.
Reading Comprehension (RC) - Master Comprehension ably guides students about the importance of strategic pausing and following a structure-based approach. Both of these, according to me, are prerequisites for nailing hard RC passages. Mastering this approach made a significant difference in my performance.
Critical Reasoning – On the suggestion of the mentors at e-GMAT, I followed the process of pre-thinking and was surprised to find out that I could solve most CR questions in under 1.5 minutes. I attribute my improved score majorly to adopting the process of pre-thinking. It helped me navigate through the tricky questions that the GMAT is known for, saving me precious time and making me avoid traps, especially in the harder questions.
Strategy for Sentence Correction –
I cannot emphasize enough on the importance of following the Meaning Based Approach in Sentence Correction (SC). I lot of right answers in GMAT sound awkward and relying on what sounds right isn't going to help much. Following the meaning-based approach, on the other hand, made me more efficient at avoiding grammatically correct wrong answers.

Improvement in Quant Section:
PACE tailors the course to the individual needs of every student and helped me save more than 40 hours on my Quant Prep. Focusing on my weak areas as identified through Scholaranium, with the help of cementing and test readiness quizzes improved my Quant score significantly.
Scholaranium was particularly vital in my preparation. Scholaranium's targeted practice questions and the analytical tools provided a structured approach to tackling my weaknesses. Data Insights is an invaluable tool in critically identifying weak areas and also offers the chance to track improvement. My mentor Rashmi helped me work on my flaws and play on my strengths. This was especially true for the Quant and CR sections, where I needed the maximum improvement.

Last Mile Push Program:
The Last Mile Push Program in the final stages of my preparation helped me increase my score by 30 points (from my previous score of 700) in a matter of a few days and helped me score 730 (Q 48, V 41). Rashmi provided an objective view of my strengths and weaknesses, allowing me to focus on critical areas for improvement. Also, I would like to mention that the Sigma X Mock scores were within +/- 10 points of my actual GMAT score both times and were an accurate representation of where I stood in terms of my preparation. A balanced approach and trust in the e-GMAT methodology, including the tools and resources like Scholaranium, Pre-thinking approach in CR and the Structure-based approach in RC led to a significant improvement in my score. Overall, I would like to add that e-GMAT has everything one needs to ace the GMAT!

Strengths:

Great content for verbal preparation, almost 100% on video, which helps more than the written material. My favorite part about e-gmat was the possibility of asking for personalized advice via email. The team always sent me detailed plans of which content to study and tests to take considering my progress.

Would make the product better:

The quantitative content could have more videos instead of text. Some teacher from the verbal, specially an american teacher provided confusing answers, then one other teacher needed to correct the answers.

I recommend the e-gmat for everyone who is preparing for the GMAT, specially because they offer the personalized help via email, with a tailored study plan. This tailored study plan was essential for me because I had little time to study and needed to focus on what would yield the greatest results. Additionally, the quantitative questions were tough, and this helped me to be prepared for the questions on the actual test, it made it seem easier. I had purchased TTP before and was not able to use it, because it was too much content and not so much guidance, as I had no time to lose, the E-GMAT became the best solution. One other feature I loved was being able to ask questions and receiving the answer within 1 business day.

In October 2022, my GMAT preparation journey began with three months of intensive self-study. But my first attempt brought me an underwhelming score of 680. That's when I realized that I needed more than just subject knowledge; I needed a different strategy. This realization led me to E-GMAT, discovered through a free SC masterclass that introduced me to a meaning-based approach. The masterclass along with a free mock test (along with its impressively detailed ESR report) and many positive reviews convinced me to give it a shot.

Coming from an engineering background, I always had decent score in quants. Verbal, however, was a struggle for me, especially Sentence Correction (God Bless GMAT Focus for getting rid of it!) which constituted 80% of my preparation time. E-GMAT's methodological approach provided clarity and structure to my thoughts when tackling such questions. This structured methodology became a reliable tool in decision-making, especially in those 700-800 level problems with trick answer choices. These approaches can broadly be divided as:
1. SC: Meaning based approach.
2. CR: Pre-thinking
3. RC: Active reading
The flow of course is structured in such a way that each approach is further reinforced in subsequent sections. (e.g. Meaning based approach learned in SC helps decipher subtle changes in language's meaning in hard CR question. Similarly, Pre-thinking skill learnt in CR helps greatly while actively engaging with RC passages.

After concept files, each section (i.e. SC, CR and RC) has a cementing module and for me it was this section that made my investment in this program worth it. Learning and mastering approach is one thing, However, to be able to use it in actual test environment is an entirely different game. Cementing stage, as the name suggests, is aimed at cementing these approaches so that the same can be retained and applied in timed manner during actual test.

After completing EMGAT Verbal module, In July 2023, I gave my second attempt. In this attempt I scored 720 (Q50 V38). Knowing I could do better, I decided to go for another attempt. However, due to various personal reasons I had to take a 5 month long break from my preparation. I resumed preparation for my final attempt in January 2024, just three weeks away from exam date. But because of cementing done earlier and detailed error log prepared during my previous attempt, I was able to complete all the the necessary preparation to get my desired score within time.

In summary, E-GMAT's structured approach, personalized mentorship and the transformative impact of Cementing were instrumental in achieving my target score. The program not only improved my understanding of various concepts, but also refined my application skills. And as per my experience, this “application of skills” part is where EGMAT stands unparalleled.

I recently took my GMAT Classic exam and scored a 720 (Q49, V39, IR 6, AWA 6). My starting ability in the GMAT was somewhere around the ~500 level, hence a lot of effort went in to fix the basics!

Here's what I liked about the course:

1. The meaning based approach in SC makes it so easy to find errors in sentences in a structured manner. This helped me develop SC into one of my strongest areas in the GMAT.

2. The RC reading strategies helped me a lot in terms of managing time during the exam, helping me form linkages and reduce my dependence on taking notes.

3. Scholaranium is a game changer. It provides unparalleled insights into where is it that we need to focus our efforts. It provides sub section level analysis of our performance, making the entire prep structured and data driven.

4. Mentorship: I wrote to the E-GMAT team requesting their help on charting out a plan to improve my score further from a 700 that I had scored in my first attempt. I'd like to thank Rashmi, my mentor, for the prompt and consistent support in charting out the plans, assessing my performance and tweaking the plans accordingly. Her inputs helped me improve my score from a 700 to a 720. I was unable to translate my performances in the mocks and practice quizzes on the exam day, else I'd have scored much higher. Rashmi was very prompt, patient and supportive throughout the prep phase and I'm grateful to her for going out of the way to help me.

All in all, I'd recommend the E-GMAT course not only because of their teaching methods, but also because the module (Course, Scholaranium, Sigma mocks) is very user friendly and provides unparalleled insights to help students take data driven insights, which help in directing efforts towards the weaker areas.

Hello Everyone!

I recently embarked on the challenging journey of preparing for the GMAT, and I am thrilled to share that I achieved a score of 720. I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the e-GMAT team for their invaluable support throughout this process. In this comprehensive review, I'll share how e-GMAT's structured approach revolutionized my preparation and led to my success.

Mastering Skills of Verbal with e-GMAT's Structured Approach:
From the moment I decided to prepare for the GMAT, I knew I needed a comprehensive and structured course to guide me through the complexities of the exam. e-GMAT's Verbal course exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The journey began with the Master Comprehension module, which meticulously laid the foundation by dissecting the building blocks of sentences and instilling a profound understanding of the Meaning-Based Approach. This approach was truly a game-changer in Sentence Correction. In Critical Reasoning, the pre-thinking technique empowered me to anticipate answers before even glancing at the choices, significantly reducing the time taken to answer questions. In Reading Comprehension, the emphasis on understanding the passage itself proved invaluable, enabling me to tackle even the most challenging questions with confidence.

Efficiency and Effectiveness: The Role of Process and Analytics:
One of the unique features of e-GMAT's course is the PACE Engine, a personalized, adaptive course engine view that optimizes learning by focusing on individual weak areas. This innovative tool saved me considerable time. In Quant Section, the process skills that I developed helped me tackle any question type with ease. In addition, the three-stage preparation structure, particularly the Cementing Process, was instrumental in solidifying my understanding and ensuring mastery of concepts for both Verbal and Quant.
Scholaranium stands out as a remarkable platform within e-GMAT's arsenal, offering an array of features essential for thorough GMAT preparation.

The platform's analytics proved helpful during the crucial test readiness phase, enabling me to fine-tune my preparation. Scholaranium is a must-have resource for anyone serious about mastering the GMAT.

Balancing Work and Studies: Personalized Support and Study Plans:
As a working professional juggling multiple commitments, the Last Mile Program offered by e-GMAT was a godsend. My mentor, Akash, provided a meticulous roadmap, covering every aspect of preparation from learning to stamina development for the exam. I cannot overstate the significance of the support I received from my mentor, who not only crafted detailed plans but also offered unwavering encouragement and motivation throughout my journey. The regular check-ins and customized resources such as study material, videos etc. played a pivotal role in keeping me on track, even during challenging times.

Comprehensive Support and Realistic Simulation:
The support provided by e-GMAT's Subject Matter Experts was unparalleled. Their ability to simplify complex concepts and provide tailored guidance was invaluable in addressing my doubts and enhancing my understanding. The SigmaX Mocks served as a true simulation of the actual test environment, allowing me to devise strategies and gauge my readiness effectively. With the guidance of my mentor, Akash, I felt supported every step of the way, from crafting study plans to overcoming self-doubt.

Final Recommendation: Why e-GMAT Is the Ultimate Choice:

Nothing it is perfect

E-GMAT. Hands down the best platform I have encountered. After trying 2 other famous providers, solving all the OG questions multiple times and attempting the GMAT examination three times, I was introduced to the E-GMAT platform by a friend who managed to secure a 760 by studying with E-GMAT. To be honest I was frustrated and lost before encountering E-GMAT. Nothing would work for me especially in the verbal section. Prior to E-GMAT, I did not even know that there was a structured methodology to deal with the verbal section. Having dyslexia, I could not navigate in an adequate manner through the RC passages. CR was a nightmare as I didn’t know how to approach the questions and extrapolate a solution. SC was convoluted. Long story short the verbal section was chaotic. First thing I did when I purchased my E-GMAT subscription of GMAT Online on Dec 2nd, 2023, was to let go of everything I had done and go through all the sections in detail. For me the real game changer was the learnings deduced from the Verbal teachings. SC was a hard section for me as I thought that by relying solely on grammar I would prevail in the test. I couldn’t be more wrong. E-GMAT taught me that meaning is the most important factor that separates the great from the best in SC. The strategies that I learned and employed helped me deduce the meaning in SC texts and master the concept. In CR the most important methodology that I learned was the pre-thinking approach. This approach is a groundbreaking approach that no other platform teaches. This approach teaches how to arrive at solid answers before even looking at the solutions. With this methodology I was able to navigate through the CR questions in a structured manner and greatly improve my ability in solving CR questions. Last but not least I had to deal with my arch enemy, the RC. It was a living nightmare in the beginning. The vast texts seemed undefeatable. However, in the master and reading comprehension sections I learned how to deduce meaning, increase my comprehension and cruises through texts in the most efficient manner possible. I cannot stress it enough, the E-GMAT was a game changer in the verbal section!!!!! When it comes to quant, the PACE software enabled me to be time efficient with the topics I knew well and save precious time, time that I would dedicate later on mastering medium and hard questions. Before E-GMAT I thought that I could tackle hard questions in an efficient manner. That was not true. The quant problems faced in E-GMAT are way harder than OG. Although I faltered a lot in the beginning, I trusted the process and pushed forward. One thing that other platforms lacked was a detailed explanation of the answer. At E-GMAT the methodology of arriving at the solutions is crystal clear for each question! As I said the content was challenging but there are only things to gain by training yourself with hard questions. It is always better to be prepared for the worse. Moving on E-GMAT highlighted the significance of maintaining an error log. Knowledge comes from revising errors and avoiding repeating mistakes. Moreover, Scholaranium is the perfect place to hones one’s skills. Scholaranium is a platform embedded in the E-GMAT that analyzes every single parameter of one’s attempts. It provides useful insights on matters that deem improvement. In addition to the above E-GMAT fosters a program called the Last Mile Push for ambitious students that are willing to do everything in their power to achieve success. In this program one is assigned a mentor that provides guidance on how to improve. I was very fortunate to be assigned with Rashmi. What can I say. Anything stated would be an understatement. Rashmi helped me on a daily basis to unlock my potential and rise above any previous performance. This mentorship elevated my skills and confidence at a level previously unimaginable. Having honed my skills through cementing and custom quizzes and having utilized the data analytics that Scholaranium offers I was ready to head on to the mock phase. At this point it is worth mentioning that in the first mock that I took before I started with my preparation, I scored a 620. After a month of preparation, I was able to score consistently above 700. Every time that I took a mock and gazed at the results, I felt confident but also felt motivated to improve even further. With the invaluable guidance of Rashmi and my persistence, I was able to score a 700 on test day. That’s an 80 point improvement in a months’ time guys! It is fair to say that without E-GMAT and Rashmi I wouldn’t be able to perform at such a high level. If you ask me if E-GMAT is worth it, I will respond definitely. Every aspect of the platform is about unlocking one’s potential with the aim of dominating the real deal. I feel that I could not materialize my dreams of getting admitted into a good business school with out E-GMAT. By and large if you are wondering whether to proceed with E-GMAT, I am urging you to do so as you won’t be disappointed. My closing remarks are: follow exactly everything that you are instructed to do in the manner you are instructed even if it may seem redundant and pay close attention on how to parse information on the error log as it will help you improve on a scaling manner. The insights in verbal and quant, the methodology employed, and the guidance of Rashmi are what helped me achieve 700. Seeing consistent improvement is an unparalleled feeling and I did not see any consistency in my improvement prior to enrolling at the E-GMAT platform.

Regular check-ins ensured that I stayed on track, and the support extended beyond just academic concerns, making the entire preparation process more manageable and less stressful.

Strengths:

The Last Mile Push (LMP) program offers a comprehensive strategy for GMAT preparation. It presents a well-organized approach that targets and improves our weaknesses in both verbal and quant sections. This program not only builds a strong foundation but also alleviates exam fatigue and test fear.

Would make the product better:

LMP utilizes email interactions as its primary mode of communication. However, occasional in-person interactions can enhance the overall effectiveness of the course.

I started my GMAT preparations in November 2022. I enrolled in a prep platform where I practiced for about 2.5 months. Despite my efforts, my first attempt in January 2023 yielded a score of only 610 (V25, Q49). Time posed a challenge in the verbal section. Believing that practicing more questions in a timed setting would enhance my verbal score, I began taking as many mock tests as I could (Later, I realized that this was the biggest mistake I did during my GMAT prep). I took the exam again in March 2023. Unfortunately, it resulted in a disappointing score of 620 (V28, Q48). It became evident that my struggle in the verbal section was rooted in a lack of conceptual understanding.

In pursuit of a 700 score, I enrolled with e-GMAT in April 2023. From the outset, the impact was noticeable, particularly with the effective meaning-based approach in Sentence Correction (SC) and Reading Comprehension (RC). By the end of June 2023, I completed the verbal course, scoring near 690 in Sigma mocks. With renewed confidence, I scheduled my exam for July 18, 2023, aiming for MBA intakes in September 2023 or January 2024. Despite feeling well-prepared, exam anxiety affected my performance in the verbal section, resulting in a score of 670 (V31, Q49), falling short of my 700 target.

Realizing the need for guidance, I reached out to the e-GMAT team post-exam. They enrolled me in the LMP program for free, assigning Dhruv as my mentor. However, due to work commitments, I couldn't immediately commence the LMP program after my exam. Professional commitments consistently caused interruptions and diverted my focus during my GMAT preparation. Eventually, I was able to commence the LMP program in October 2023. LMP provided a high level of structure and instilled discipline in my preparation—a quality I had been lacking until then. I systematically completed sections one by one and surpassed a set threshold scores in each to progress. Although I faced challenges in Critical Reasoning (CR), continuous support from Dhruv helped me surmount this hurdle. While verbal remained the focal point, I revisited quant modules before the exam, and that proved to be sufficient.

I scheduled my exam for 15th January, 2024, approximately one year after my initial attempt. In the final days leading up to the exam, intense work pressure posed a significant challenge to my preparations. However, Dhruv and the e-GMAT team provided commendable support during this critical period. Upon taking the exam, seeing the score (700 - V34 & Q50) on the screen left me feeling satisfied and content. The LMP program proved effective for those aiming to surpass the 700 mark as it provides a structured approach and in-depth understanding of concepts. I wholeheartedly recommend LMP to those struggling to break the 700 barrier. My gratitude goes to e-GMAT, especially Dhruv, for being a guiding force in my GMAT journey. Best wishes to e-GMAT and all those preparing for the exam.
