Strengths:

I found the DI section taught in egmat course to be extremely thorough, it touches on every question type tested on GMAT test and helps you navigate through all the problems of the section.

For quant, Egmat does wonders, i was never able to perform good in any quant question but egmat taught me quants very well.

Would make the product better:

I think the course is a bit lengthy, which is a good thing but i think for someone trying to be done with gmat in a month or two would find it hard to complete the course.

eGMAT has been instrumental in my GMAT success, helping me achieve a score of 685 with an 81st percentile in quant, a significant improvement from starting at the 21st percentile. The platform's approach is highly methodical, meticulously explaining each concept and question with straightforward methods that made complex topics understandable.

A standout feature for me was the improvement in the Data Insights section, where eGMAT guided me from the 58th percentile to an outstanding 96th percentile in just one month. Their detailed explanations and strategic approaches to timed practice were invaluable in my progress.

I am especially grateful to Abha, my mentor at eGMAT, whose personalized study plan with clear milestones played a crucial role in keeping me on track and motivated throughout my preparation journey.

The Scholaranium feature, particularly its challenging quizzes tailored to the verbal section, was pivotal in refining my skills and boosting my percentile from 43rd to an impressive 98th. Overall, eGMAT’s comprehensive resources and personalized support were key factors in my achievement of a competitive GMAT score.

I recently took the GMAT and scored 685, and I owe a significant part of my success to the e-GMAT course and the invaluable guidance I received from my mentor, Dhruv.
Course Content and Structure: The e-GMAT course is exceptionally well-structured, providing comprehensive coverage of all the GMAT sections. What I particularly appreciated was the systematic approach: building the concept first, then using examples to explain these concepts, and finally reinforcing them through cementing quizzes. This approach ensured that I had a solid understanding of the material before moving on to more complex topics. Additionally, the course effectively covered specific question types, which was crucial.
Mentorship by Dhruv: Towards the last two weeks of my preparation, I got in touch with my mentor, Dhruv, when I wasn’t scoring well in the practice quizzes. His personalized guidance, encouragement, and insightful feedback were instrumental in turning things around for me. Dhruv helped me identify my weak sections and guided me to reattempt these areas in theory, which was crucial as a last-minute push. He provided a plan and was prompt with planning at every step. He understood the need to connect and didn’t hesitate to set up a call when I needed it.
Overall Experience: Overall, the e-GMAT course, combined with Dhruv's mentorship, provided me with a robust preparation framework that was both efficient and effective. I highly recommend the e-GMAT course to anyone preparing for the GMAT, and if you have the opportunity to work with Dhruv, you are in excellent hands.
Thank you, e-GMAT and Dhruv, for helping me achieve a 685 on the GMAT!

Strengths:

Adaptive course based on your skills. Detailed question bank, good support on doubts and queries.

I took the 4 month course from e-GMAT and the step by step learning approach really helped me improve. They always start from the basics and gradually move on to the tougher concepts of each topic. Also, their pre-topic diagnostic quizzes also help you skip a lot of content if you are already adept at a certain topic. This actually helped me because I saved a lot of time in certain quant topics that I was familiar with because of my background.

The course also has a cementing system which helps you solidify the learning from a particular topic before you move on to the next one. The question bank is super exhaustive and has numerous questions from each and every topic - including the new type of DI questions that are really hard to find otherwise. You’ll never feel a shortage of questions if you have this course with you.

Doubts and Queries - it is natural to have doubts when you are solving questions and it is very normal to disagree with the solutions as well. You can post your query for a specific question and the team is super responsive. They’ll try and engage with you and reply within 48 hours.

I was also a part of the LMP programme which helped me in improving my score from my first to the second attempt. They specially curated a study plan for me depending on my skills which were analysed on the basis of my first attempt as well as the questions that I answered on the eGMAT question bank.

Overall, I would totally recommend eGMAT.

e-GMAT has been an indispensable resource in my GMAT preparation journey, offering unparalleled support, a well-structured course, and innovative methodologies
One of the standout features for me was the Pre-Thinking framework, which significantly improved my accuracy in the Verbal section. This strategy trained me to anticipate potential answer choices, making it easier to eliminate incorrect options. The Master Comprehension course was another highlight, enhancing my reading skills and helping me understand complex passages more efficiently.
What sets e-GMAT apart is its robust support system. The dedicated mentors were always available to guide me through my preparation, addressing any queries I had promptly.

Strengths:

1. Study Plan based on your current score and target score with the detailed sectionwise plan.
2. Structured content with exercises at the end of each module which help in applying the concepts being learned in the module.
3. Scholaranium has a lot of questions to learn from and apply the learnings and developing the skills required for the Gmat.
4. Mentorship & strategy based approach based on your current learnings and skills.

Would make the product better:

1. For DS more verbal questions category should be added.
2. For creating a cementing quiz of 23 questions for verbal we should have the flexibility of choosing 3- 4 questions per passage so that the exact number of questions are 23 and are not increased while attempting the quiz.

It has been a long journey from 615 to 695 where E-Gmat has played a crucial role. Also thanks to Abha she has helped a lot in this roller coaster journey.
After attempting my 1st scholaranium mock I realised that my weak areas were verbal and DI as I was barely able to finish the sections. Being a working professional I could not do this on my own because of work commitments so decided to join a course based on my friends previous experience with the E-Gmat course and my research I decided to join E-Gmat.
The Structure of the course helped me learn and apply the concepts after each module this application based approach increased my learning outcomes tremendously and at the same time i was able to do more focused prep.
In Verbal CR Pre-thinking is game changer trust me it works wonders once you start applying the process and this skill is leveraged in RC and DI as well. After going through the modules the time for answering the verbal questions decreased and was able to complete the sections without much time pressure.
DI section caters to most of the diverse questions asked on the Gmat with some of them quite challenging to prepare for more difficult questions. The process based approach in DI helps a lot in reducing the time and increasing the overall accuracy.
Quant being my strength area the course recommended a P.A.C.E based approach so i was spending more time on sectionals rather than learning the concepts again.
I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to score high. Trust the process their are a lot of Distractions related to courses but I would recommend anyone who is reading this that trust the instructors and the process. Gmat is not about solving to many questions but learning from each and every question.
Being part of the LMP program helped me in the last phase of my Gmat journey where even after fluctuations in my test score through Abha's mentorship and strategic reviewing I was able to finalize and implement my strategy for the D-day.
Mocks are a crucial aspect of testing the skills of an aspirant and the Sigma-X-Mock comes close to the actual test as I only attempted Sigma-X-Mock and 2 Mba.com mocks so the mocks provided are enough to prepare for the exam also their is a great feature that after a mock for the sections we don't perform well their are additional questions added to the scholaranium based on the latest attempt.
One of the best parts is the availability and flexibility of contacting the mentor over the Email helps a lot in resolving any doubts.

The platform has a personalized study plan section in which you can insert your starting score and target score, as well as your time dedication, and gives you a very detailed plan to tackle each subsection. Moreover, there are cementing quizzes to help ensure you don´t forget the learnings on each topic as you progress.

I have taken up e-gmat self paced course on 12 Aug 2023. I gave my first attempt on Jan 25th 2024 and scored 655. My second attempt was on Mar 21st 2024 and finally achieved my target score of 695.

How I came across e-gmat
I have enquired with a few of my friends and colleagues regarding the best course available in the market. E-gmat was a clear winner with 100% of them voting for it. Without any second thoughts, I went ahead with the same.

My Experience during initial preparation
I would call this as the phase of understanding the requirements of the test and learning the core concepts required to attain proficiency. Their modules in Quant, DI and Verbal were very crisp and to the point. I felt their content and modules are very scientifically designed to exactly meet the test requirements without taking too much of the candidate’s time.
I really commend their PACE module in Quant section which precisely identifies your starting ability and suggests modules which can be safely skipped thus resulting in significant time savings. Another distinguishing feature of e-gmat is their emphasis on structured approach for all quant problems. They strongly discourage teaching any shortcuts in solving the questions. Developing this ability equips you with all the skills needed to solve higher difficulty questions with ease.
Verbal was a challenge for me. Their entire verbal course emphasizes on the most essential skill of comprehension, visualization of argument/passage. Again, they do not recommend any shortcuts. “Master comprehension” module is the backbone for entire verbal course. Pre-thinking approach of e-gmat is a game changer in CR and RC as well. Though I initially felt it to be very time consuming, I slowly realized the ease with which CR questions can be solved once you master this approach.
I started Data Insights section with a lot of speculation after going through other’s experiences. I was very low on confidence initially but by the end of the course I realized that the skill set required to ace DI is a combination of comprehension/visualization techniques mastered in Verbal section plus employing the structured approach mastered in Quant section. At the end of the day I have secured 82 with 94 percentile in DI.

Scholaranium
I would call it a treasure trove. This gives the necessary practice to put the candidate into the test environment, both in terms of difficulty and timed practice, right after learning the concepts. The quality of questions is too good and at the level of final test. Attempting these questions gives a realistic estimate of one’s level of preparation. After each test, the platforms presents the time/performance metrics which are helpful in self-evaluation. This is what they call “strategic review” and plays an important role in identifying and filling the gaps in preparation.

Mentor support/Interaction with team
Before taking up the course, I have heard that e-gmat provides support only through emails/their forum and does not facilitate direct verbal interaction with subject matter experts [SME] and that this is their main drawback.
In my experience, I find that the solutions provided by SME’s on the doubts raised on their forum are very elaborate and leave no room for any further confusion. Things become crystal clear after going through their explanation.
They have a dedicated strategy team who evaluate your account and are happy to suggest plans for improvement. Team has always responded within a day over email for any questions regarding strategy. They address any kind of queries during your preparation. I was not aware of this kind of support until I attended one of their free webinars where this aspect has come up accidentally. It was through these discussions that I interacted with Rida, who was my mentor till the end of my GMAT journey. She was very supportive and readily supported in devising a study plan/ providing extra resources to improve my verbal performance/ detailed analysis of mocks. She was kind enough to offer me scholarship for their prestigious Last Mile Program [LMP]

LMP
I was a part of LMP just before my first attempt but for only 2 weeks. I could not benefit totally from this program as I do not have enough time left before my first attempt. I was not very happy with my score in first attempt. I have communicated the same to the team. Payal has taken over at this point and provided a structured and objective plan with clear targets to put me on the path to my target score of 685 [eventually hit a 695]. She has analysed all my scholaranium attempts/ my first GMAT attempt and provided me with a clear insight into what was going wrong. This was a game-changer for me. I started identifying my faults and rectified one by one.
Her emphasis on visualization, comprehension, translation, and inference have created wonders for me and I landed at a 695 in my second attempt. Though these skills sound very simple and familiar, I have neglected them and did not realise their importance. I always felt I need to master something very complex to move to higher scores. While working on this plan, I realized that GMAT is a simple test that is intelligently designed with many traps. It is these traps that make the test appear as difficult. Her words that “It is not enough if you can see what could be the answer, it is also important to see what are the kind of wrong answers that can be provided” has changed my perspective of looking at every question. Apart from the correct answer, I started seeing the wrong answers and understand the kind of traps that are set in the test.

Free Resources
I have attended their free webinars hosted by Rajat and Payal every week on a wide variety of topics. Though they are offered for free these sessions are content rich and have helped me a lot. There is one particular session of Rajat on Mastering RC where he demonstrated the skill of reading an RC passage like a manager. This has helped me a lot in improving my RC abilities.

Overall, I would say that e-gmat offers the best resources for GMAT preparation alongside having a very competent and a friendly team for support. All the mentors are so supportive and accommodative of any special requirements. If you are ready to give your 100% to your preparation, they leave no stone unturned in ensuring your success. It is this additional human touch that differentiates a good course from a great course.

Many practice questions are provided, which help you cement your concepts. Also, the scoring of the mocks is similar to official gmat mocks. Moreover, the mentors are very cordial, and help you understand your lacunas and how you can improve your score.

Would make the product better:

- Typically, mentor-mentee interaction happens over mail (with an occasional VC). This leads to communication gaps at times
- I conveyed this to the team, and they were accommodating enough to adopt other modes on a case-to-case basis

Hi, members of the community,
I'll keep this review as relevant and concise as possible.
Context:
As a final-year engineering student, my GMAT journey was marked by a firmer grasp of the Quant and DI sections. The official mock I attempted confirmed this, revealing a weaker Verbal section score that needed attention.
I started seeking help; a few of the options I considered were [1] offline coaching, [2] self-study from official guides & [3] online courses.

Decision factors:
Since I had to balance my preparation along with my internship and studies, I decided to go for a self paced online course.
There are a few prominent online courses; I chose e-GMAT as it was recommended to me by a senior who scored a 740 on his GMAT (he still says that if I am unable to achieve after completing the course, the issue is with me and not the course)
Their free C.R. session solidified my decision to purchase the e-GMAT course. In this 2-hour section, we tackled a few assumption questions. I immediately noticed a change in my approach, leading to improved accuracy. This experience convinced me of the course's potential to enhance my Verbal section performance.
Additionally, they were decently priced and provided a flexible extension policy.

Verbal:
e-GMAT follows a pre-thinking approach for all CR questions and employs reading strategies for RC questions, which break something as elementary as reading a paragraph into steps, ensuring maximum absorption and processing, which helps achieve better accuracy while answering.

Quant:
They have this unique P.A.C.E. learning model, which adds and removes learning modules based on your existing foothold in the topic; this came in handy to me, given that I wanted to spend less time in this section learning concepts I was already familiar with.
It helped save my time here and improved the overall learning experience.

DI:
In the early days of GFE, the DI section of a course is what makes or breaks it. e-GMAT has done well in covering every aspect in detail, using innovative animations and infographics. It made learning exciting and smooth, as DI questions might sometimes get daunting.

Overall:
e-GMAT follows a unique question-first learning & application approach in each section, wherein you attempt a question, and then they teach you the right approach to solve it stepwise.

Lastly, through this review, I want to thank the entire team at e-GMAT and especially my mentor, Abha, who believed in me in times I didn't.
