During the first time I took the GMAT test, It was a average experience for me in verbal. I made a good score in Math (51M) and I finished this first part really confident. When I started the first question of verbal, I spent many time and I lost the main opportunity to have a good score. Unfortunatelly I knew E-gmat only few days before my the day of my test and I had not the enough time to learn the process to solve the questions as E-gmat does.
Only one day after my first attempt, I bought the Verbal Online Prep. It was one of my best investiments that I have done until today. Specially for the Sentence Correction (one of my principal weaknesses), I know that my improvement was something really significative. I passed from a begginer student level to a teacher level. I remember that when I had a tutor in person, she always made the correction with me and after the E-gmat course I can identify the errors in a way pretty similar to that of my tutor. But this course is actually video form of Manhattan
As my undergrad grades are just around average I knew I needed to score high on the GMAT, deliver a flawless application and improve my english skills drastically to have the slightest chance of admission in a Top 30 program.
I started my MBA journey around March 2016 with the purchase of Kaplan GMAT Premier 2016. I did the pre-test and was devastated: I remember scoring somewhere around 480 and almost threw all my MBA plans overboard..
Knowing that I wouldn't have time to study seriously until February 2017 I installed "GMAT Math Flashcards" and "GMAT Idiom Flashcards" from the Appstore and used them from time to time (forgetting about them for several weeks and months at times..). I also installed Prep4 GMAT (now called Ready4 GMAT) and solved almost all questions of the day from March 2016 to November 2016.
These apps gave me a great fundament and confidence to proceed. I scored 610 (V30, Q40, 2017.2.12) in GMATPrep with just going through the OG verbal part and knew that 650-700 would be a realistic aim for the real exam in April. I signed up for e-gmat and did the SC part. Studied/watched just theory and didn't practice in their practice area. Did also some OG quant and scored a - given I spent so much time on e-gmat verbal - devastating 620 (V30, Q47, 2017.3.11). I sticked to the plan and desperately wanted to finish the e-gmat verbal course which is really long.. I did a crucial mistake: At least for me the verbal course wasn't worth skimming through. I should have defined my weak areas in verbal beforehand and practiced just these.
The e-gmat quant was a side-quest as I felt rather comfortable with quant already. But this side-quest took me to the next level; it is really compact and highly effective for somebody with solid but rusty math skills!
I scored a bit inflated 700 (V40, Q47 2017.4.6) some days before the big day. I went through my quant error log which helped me to achieve 690 (V35, Q49) on exam day. IR went terrible and I scored just 2. AWA 4 which was OK given my english level.
Pro e-gmat:
- great, compact quant section
Contra e-gmat:
- verbal to extensive. focus just on your weak areas and practice practice practice!!!
So how did I get into my dream program?
- Lots of GMAT study (200h+, sadly didn't use e-gmat effectively)
-- Error log
-- Timed OG (I stopped the time for every offline OG question!)
- Around 40 Skype english lessons to improve my fluency
- MBA admission consulting from essaylever.com which offers FANTASTIC value for money. I don't get why others spend thousands of dollars while essaylever.com offers the same for a couple of hundred dollars. They were super efficient, no single minute wasted with smalltalk etc. Sanjay helped me to create kickass essays and his interview sessions shaped my confidence and skills for the final day.
The e-gmat sentence correction course is really good. It helps you a lot,particularly if somebody is a non native speaker. The step by step process that is used by egmat team to solve SC problems is just amazing. It is a must for everyone who is struggling in sentence correction problems. The videos help a person understand each topic in his or her own pace. In addition the Verbal Scholaranium has a very good collection of question in both SC and CR. I would recommend this course to everyone. It surely is the best available course in the market. It helped me to improve my score. Great work by e-gmat team.
I came across the e-gmat verbal randomly while I was looking for online prep course. After going some review, I decided to give it a try.
The course content is very rich, the explanation is detailed. The section is also well-structured, allowing you to combine it with a study plan. For non-native speakers, the explanation on some grammar points are very easy to understand and remember.
It not only explains you the logic behind the question, more importantly, it teaches you the best way to answer the similar question. You will get a lot of practice questions right after each video tutorial so that you could practice what you've just learned.
I took one test before and about to take my next one. For my mock test, I've increased an average of 100 points.
Hi. I bought the verbal online course after 2 unsuccessful attempts at the GMAT. e GMAT has now given me confidence to approach each question by a process. Post completing the SC Course, my focus shifted from grammar to meaning. I was on a lookout for a meaning change in every ques. In CR Prethinking became a handy tool in solving easy and medium ques. Though the tough ques in CR do require more pondering, prethinking helped a lot in reaching the correct answer a lot faster. In RC, practice ques on Scholaranium made paragraph summaries a second nature. Overall, the eGMAT experience has been very fruitful. Scholaranium as a sectional capability improving tool is very effective.
My GMAT journey started back in October’15. At that time, my preparation resource was Official Guides, Verbal and Quantitative review, some books and several materials available online for GMAT preparation. Soon after I started my preparation, I felt that my strength is Quant. After couple of weeks of study, I took a mock test in GMAT Prep Software and score in Quant was 47. However, it is not the quant that holds back my GMAT progress, but the verbal. I spent most of the time trying to improve my verbal score and practicing more on verbal, yet I could not get what I wanted. I never felt confident enough in verbal part. The situation did not changed even when I took the GMAT in November’16. I scored Q48 but verbal was a disaster.
Then, it was my time to take a step back and think what went wrong. It took me some time figure out that process of elimination is very important for verbal i.e. only figuring out the right answer is not enough, but figuring out why the wrong answer is wrong is equally important. So, I took some time to research the correct online prep. tool for me and finally, selected E-Gmat Verbal Online prep.
Today, as I get closer to GMAT date again, I feel differently about my verbal strength. Now I feel confident. The E-Gmat verbal online prep helped me a lot to come out from the situation that I had before my first GMAT attempt. This improvement is because of several features in the course.
Firstly, the concepts for each of the section – RC, CR and SC – are clearly explained with examples. It is important to show the concepts and application of the idea at the same time, with GMAT like examples. This course does that pretty well. This approach not only clears doubts and increases understanding of the concept, but also makes the concept stay embedded in your memory. Furthermore, the audio-visual approach of the course engage you in such a manner that you stay focused to lesson, a lot better than a boring lecture.
Secondly, the practice quizzes and concept quizzes right after each lesson helps to get quick feedback on your progress. For an impatient person like me, who is a sucker of quick result, the course worked well for me, at least from that point of view.
But what liked most in this course is its approach towards the wrong answer. Especially in RC and CR, the course provides you concepts on the wrong answer choice as well categorise them into the common traps used by the tentmakers. As a result, I fell a lot more confidant today when solve the questions.
Another feature that helped me a lot with my preparation is the scholarenium platform. This platform helped me to practice a lot with GMAT like question with different difficulty level. Plenty of options are available to customaries the quiz. Sometimes, I take a quiz in the exam setting to see my accuracy level. Other time I can just choose a topic in study mode to evaluate my strength on that topic. The explanation and feedbacks given in this quiz platform is really helpful.
All in all, I can say that E-Gmat verbal online prep helped me to get in better shape for the exam and to build up my confidence in verbal section!!
The e-gmat sentence correction course is really good. It helps you a lot. The course is designed in a way that guides you step by step till you become a pro. It is a must for everyone who is struggling in sentence correction problems. The videos are short and crisp. The videos won't overload you with stuff, you need not know. I would recommend this course to everyone. It surely is the best available course in the market. It helped me to improve my score. My score increased 80 points after subscribing the e-gmat sentence correction course. Great work by e-gmat team.
I am a non native speaker and had give my GMAT more than a year ago. So when i first started i was only getting used to the GMAT verbal sections. During my first try i got a V28 and i felt that i could improve my sentence correction if i change my understanding of the section.
After hearing a lot of positive reviews i opted for the e-gmat course and in that the sentence correction course helped clear my doubts in S-V agreement and many areas where improvement was needed.Now my sentence correction accuracy has improved to 90%. Thank you e-gmat for a well structured SC online course.
I started my GMAT prep, as many people do, with no clue on how to fix sentences or how to read passages properly. After only a few weeks of study I was able to improve my score by over a 100 points. Just to put things into perspective, I was scoring in 400s and 500s in the couple of months of my study. I went through other courses tutorials, although they were helpful in Quant the verbal sections were no match for the E-Gmat's verbal section. I wish I had started my study with E-Gmat since i wasted a lot of money on other courses and books that didn't teach me much. My only regret right now is that I wish I had used E-Gmat quant as well because their course is just excellent. I have read many of Payal's posts on verbal and quant topics and the posts are amazing, filled with tidbits of knowledge.
I highly recommend this course to students who are looking to improve their verbal and quant skills. Especially if you are a non-native speaker then don't waste any time looking at other courses. I improved from V20 (my initial mock) to V38 in a quick few months of study. After only about 4-6 weeks of study, I never scored below V35 in any of my mocks.
SC was my weakest section, I had absolutely no clue on how to begin correcting a sentence. I went though the first module which taught me what a clause is, what a phrase is and what role conjunctions play in a sentence. What is a run-on sentence and how to spot structural issues in 5 seconds. Then from there, i was able to learn step by step how to spot SV errors, Parallelism errors, Modifier errors, comparison errors and few remaining minor SC topics.
I am now getting 85%-90% of SC questions correct and am very confident in my ability. So I want to thank e-Gmat for their amazing course. Thank you Rajat, Payal and other members of E-GMAT for everything.
I had given my first attempt of GMAT late last year and had scored a 650(V40 , Q40)
When i started out prepping for GMAT my verbal score was at about V31. I then signed up for E-gmat and it was the only source i reffered to for working on the verbal skills.
The Section wise video tutorials are very well structured to help non native speakers especially.
I had thoroughly gone through those and then would practice diligently on the scholaranium everyday.
Noting errors in the scholaranium and then going back to video concepts whereever you notice a gap in concept i think is a good way to keep going and improving.
You also have features to bookmark and marked as guessed for questions that helps you come back to them.
the scholaranium gives you an complete analysis with breaking down topic wise weak areas for you to then work over.
I think overall the e-gmat is a great course to help with the Verbal section of GMAT.
