I have started to look at English as a logical language since I took the e-gmat verbal online course. Now when I read articles I am constantly categorising sentences into grammar components. The approach explained in e-gmat for SC and RC has been very helpful. I came across e-gmat advertisement links on Facebook during Dec 2016 and decided to try it
A little bit about my background, I am an IT professional with 11 years of work experience. With every passing year of work life I tended to read less of general English and more of technical books. I started preparing for GMAT since March 2016 and realised that my scores in verbal were stuck at 40-50% strike rate. By Dec 2016, I had attempted GMAT twice with abysmally poor scores of 20 in verbal while 46, 47 respectively in Quant. I am taking GMAT again this June end and hope to reach as near to 700 as possible. My RC strike rate has improved to 85% - this is through the reading techniques explained in e-gmat course and webinars. SC is explained very well with examples and simple rules, it is easier to spot errors once an individual has a mind map of what to look for. It is with practice that I have managed to inculcate the simple rules laid out by e-gmat, that one has to primarily comprehend the unambiguous meaning of the sentence first and then only look for the types of grammatical errors. My strike rate fluctuates in SC owing to my concentration levels given a particular day.
The journey to get a decent score in GMAT has been long, difficult and one of self-discovery. I will like to thank e-gmat for making it easier through their verbal online course

I'm yet to give my GMAT but I just had to write this review. A big shout out to the e-GMAT team for helping me out with my prep. This is a debrief of my journey so far and how e-GMAT has helped me improve.

The first thing I realized while prepping was that despite putting in effort, I was not seeing an improvement in my score. My diagnostic score was a 700 (Q45, V42) and all subsequent efforts were around the 700 mark - 680, 670 & 640. This obviously got me worried as I had hit the dreaded 'score plateau'.

I started going through debriefs on BTG and GMAT club to determine if there were others who were facing a similar issue. A commonality that I found was that these fellow GMAT-aspirants had signed up for the e-GMAT course and were swearing by the improved results that they saw. I had my doubts about this course and started off with the free verbal webinars conducted by Rajat from e-GMAT. I absolutely loved the webinars and promptly signed up for the e-GMAT Online course.

The prep:
I was struggling with RCs and thought that I good at SC and CR. However, I didn't have empirical data that backed this perception and there was no baseline. I decide to start from the start and the first module that I completed was Master Comprehension. This is the fundamental course for verbal and greatly helped me reorient my reading habits. The learnings are basic yet so important and I could feel the difference as I attempted RC and CR questions - improved focus and attention to detail.

Next up, I started with Scholaranium as I had to determine my baseline. This is what blew me away. Super Stuff. Schloranium is a dashboard that slices and dices your abilities in terms of strengths and weaknesses in all topics both, in quant and verbal. I started with solving all ability quizzes in quant and verbal and was amazed at the insights. I realized that I needed improvement in number properties, algebra and SC - and these were topics I thought I was good at !!!

I prioritized my study scheduled basis my strengths and weaknesses and put a countdown to my next full-length. I took my next test in about two weeks after I started my course and scored a 670 (Q43, V40). This was a big bummer but I was determined to figure out what went wrong since I was very confident going into this test. Turns out it was a timing problem - back to the drawing board. Two weeks of prep peppered with drills on e-gmat and practice from OG17, 16 & 15. Next test on 1st June 2017, I socred a 720 (Q45, V44). I can't convey what that felt like because this meant that I had surpassed the score plateau and was on my way to my target score of 750+.

My test day is a couple of weeks away and I'm now spending time in perfecting the core skills taught in the e-GMAT course and am going over fundamental principles in the concept files and yes, solving multiple sets of questions. I will definitely share my debrief post my GMAT but in the meanwhile I want to say this:

"If you're feeling stuck, disappointed or demotivated because you've hit a score plateau, don't worry. I was there too and the e-GMAT Online Prep course and OG practice has helped me overcome this. Attend Rajat's free webinars and if you like them, go ahead and buy the course because you will absolutely love the prep."

Feel free to reach out to me in the comments. All the best with your prep !

Cheers !

I am a non- native English speaker and was looking for a good for a Verbal Course which could help improve my S.C section. I purchased S.C course and I must say that was the best investment I have made so far. It’s a tailor-made course for aspirants who are weak in Verbal and covers all topics from a GMAT standpoint.
The course is organized and has a nice flow which helps you get the maximum learning out of it.The excellent insights provided in videos of all topics give you in depth knowledge and help you strengthen your weak areas.A ton of thanks to Verbal Instructors Shraddha and Payal. Their approach of dissecting each S.C Question by splitting the clauses helped eliminating the wrong answer choices within short span of time.Their method of providing simple day to day examples to understand difficult questions made it easy to understand it.
The R.C strategy too worked well for me. I was not really good at solving main point and Inference Questions.The tactics provided in the webinar helped me ace this section. Pre-thinking the answers,paying close attention to the key words,making mental notes improved my accuracy around 80%.
I’ll without a doubt recommend everyone who wants to ace GMAT verbal to go for e-gmat without any hesitation.

Initially when I started preparing for GMAT with a coaching center in Delhi, my quant was good but my verbal was not up to the mark and hence my overall score was hovering around 650-670. When I saw the reviews on GMAT club about e-gmat and checked out the site, I found it very helpful and decided to enrol. After about 4 months of preparation I took the GMAT on 24 December 2016 and got 720 (Q51, V36). I was happy to see my verbal score which had improved from V28 in the mocks to V36. All thanks to e-gmat and its easy explanation of tough concepts.

E-GMAT has been great companion during my journey to prepare for GMAT. Course offered by E-Gmat is wonderful. I subscribed for E-GMAT verbal online course as I wanted to study at my own pace. As, I started learning with Verbal section, I really thanked god for choosing such a great course. First of all, course try to know my own potential and then provide all the theory and concepts related to the topic to further improve my learning. I was very scared of critical reasoning questions, but Falsification method, Pre thinking strategy and negation techniques have raised my confidence in this topic and ease my job. Sentence correction topics have been explained in such a detailed manner with very nice examples that I can challenge any one that he/she can score great in sentence correction part if one learn and follow all techniques and methods explained in the course. In reading comprehension part, I learnt how to comprehend instead of just reading by following E-Gmat strategy. Time is very important factor in solving passages. E - Gmat strategies have been very helpful in managing time and solve primary purpose questions or inference questions correctly. Then, there are various kind of quizzes which helped me to fortify my concepts and know my weakness in particular topics. There is a section in online course with name scholaranium which tests my ability in various topics and show my progress through detail statistics. Same kind of strategy is followed in Quant section too. Algebra, Number properties, Probabilities concepts which are very challenging to solve have been explained in very comprehensive manner. I have never found any course which follow such a state of art methodology. I have also gone through KAPLAN and MAGOOSH, but didnot find these courses as effective and easy as E-GMAT course. Thanks E - GMAT for helping me in fulfilling my dreams.

I gave my GMAT in Oct 2016 in which I scored 610. The online course that I had taken had a good Quant section but not such a great verbal section, especially for non-natives. I had decided to retake the GMAT in one month again and this time I decided to purchase the Verbal Online course from e-Gmat and I wasn't disappointed at all. The kind of depth in which they cover the entire Verbal section is pretty amazing. And they start right from the scratch. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to give the GMAT again due to some reasons but I can assure you that I could see my accuracy improving by a great margin. I would surely recommend e-Gmat to everyone, especially non-natives who are looking to boost their score.

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.
