Strengths:

Scholaranium
Meaning approach to SC
Error log approach

Would make the product better:

Have option to set pace for videos

Overall a good course. The meaning based approach to SC really helps understand the sentence and improve SC. The scholaranium platform helps you identify weak areas and work towards it. Creating error log using the approach suggested by the course and going through it frequently helps you understand your repeat mistakes and avoid them in future. The prethinking approach for CR helps you analyze answer choices better. The enrollment in LMP program also really helped by defining timelines and pushing me to complete the tasks within the given time. The level of quant is a bit higher than what is expected in the official GMAT test

Hey, Everyone!

I recently gave my GMAT and scored a 760. I would like to thank e-GMAT for providing the necessary support. I signed up for their course based on recommendation from my friend and didn't regret it for once. I started with a Diagnostic Mock and scored a 690(Q49, V35). My major gaps were in the Verbal section and that is something taught really well at eGMAT. The way each of the concept is explained along with the signature problem solving structure for each of SC, CR and RC, I never saw the verbal section from that lens. I really started enjoying that learning phase, and when I say that I just don't mean it from a GMAT perspective.

Even though I didn't spend a lot of time on quants, I did go through certain concepts and mainly the data sufficiency questions, which again were taught in a very structured way which helped me increase my Q49 to Q50. The ability to create practice quizzes at multiple levels: Topic Wise, Sectional, Cross-sectional, was something which really helped getting exam ready and I found the mocks quite close to what I encountered in my actual exam. So overall, the course really helped me cover the distance from 690 to 760.

Thanks,
Amogh

Strengths:

Meaning Based Approach
CR Pre-thinking Concept - to a certain extent

Would make the product better:

Not so relavant RC questions and much longer passages

SC - Superb. Meaning Based Approach proved extremely helpful. This approach opened the doors for 700 or 750 level questions, which was really a big pain point for me.
CR - Pre thinking is more about practicing than any concept as such. I could not give enough time to practice Pre-thinking to the core and hence could not improve a lot. Though it did help me to a certain extent.
RC - Did not find the section useful, could be because I was at a decent level in RC and did not need a great deal of improvement. Though, I feel the passages are way longer than real GMAT, and much tougher than what you might encounter in your exam.

Did not use its Quant, so can't say much about it.

Hey Everyone!
I recently took the GMAT test and scored a 730 (QA50, VA39). I had given my previous attempt a month ago, where I landed a 620 on the test. I improved my score by a whopping 110 points in one month. I would like to share my experience briefly about my GMAT journey.
I gave my first E-gmat Sigma X Mock and scored a 590. That's when I recognized the extent of enhancements required in my study approach, prompting me to enroll in the e-gmat course. Needless to say, the interface of the e-gmat dashboard is impeccable. The division of Quant and Verbal into various subtopics provides a student with the precise and accurate topic-wise breakdown of the syllabus, really helping to understand the weak and strong areas. The P.A.C.E feature helped me save a lot of time in my preparation.
I meticulously went through each module, ensuring completion of every practice quiz question and application question to enhance my skills. After each section, I took the Cementing quizzes, which really helped me gain confidence. I not only built my skills but also ensured that my understanding of the topics is crystal clear.
The next phase of my preparation involved multiple quizzes (Topic-wise Quiz, Mixed quiz, etc.) of varying lengths. The quiz structure was provided to me by my mentor, Abha. The quizzes contained medium to hard-level questions, and my aim was to achieve around 70-80% accuracy in them. Initially, I found the quizzes to be challenging, but towards the end of my preparation, I realized that these quizzes are helping me further in the preparation. Following several quizzes, I developed effective time management skills, achieving greater accuracy by discerning which questions to skip and which ones to attempt. I largely focused on accuracy in these quizzes as I was already done with the concept part.
Next came the Mock ramp-up phase when I started giving Sigma X mocks. In those mocks, I scored between 650-700. One notable aspect of the Sigma X mocks is their comprehensive analysis of errors by topic, coupled with a progression analysis. These mocks helped me identify specific areas where I was struggling and provided guidance on how to enhance my performance. The mock structure closely mirrored that of the actual GMAT exam.
When I first wrote the exam, I scored a 620 (VA27, QA48). To be honest, I was quite surprised because I was crystal clear in the concepts and had made sure to cover each and every aspect thoroughly. I decided not to give up and gave myself another month before going for the exam again. Finally, after one month of hard work, I booked the exam date and gave my best foot forward. Once I hit the submit button and saw the score, I was overwhelmed with joy and tears of happiness. After a dismal 620 in the previous attempt, I had scored a 730!
I’m really grateful to E-gmat for providing me with an excellent mentor. Abha helped me throughout the journey by constantly pushing me and motivating me to do better. I would request her for ad-hoc calls, and she would always be available for me. The combinations of the quizzes provided by her really helped me to get to my current score. Overall, the course is extensive and totally worth every penny. I would definitely recommend the same to test-takers.
Thank you!

Strengths:

The e-GMAT course offers a very structured and process oriented approach to the Verbal section,which generally troubles the non-native speakers the most. This is probably the most significant differentiator of the course. The course focuses immensely on the process of solving rather than merely solving the question correct. I believe this focus on correct process and structured approach to questions is a must for a great score .

I did not start my Gmat journey with e-GMAT. I started with two other Gmat prep courses, one after the other, which are also available on GMAT club. I did work as diligently as I did in the e-GMAT course, sticking to 'AI curated plan', taking live classes and following every step instructed by the experts.
I did not have a process to address different types of question that Gmat offers. I ended up just mugging up lots of grammar rules, skimming through passages, and following all sorts of shortcuts and gimmicks. With confused efforts the results were also confusing, Gmat mock scores ranging from 650 to 750 in 10+ mocks. The scores were very inconsistent. However, I went on with my First Gmat attempt and scored a 650(Q50,V27).

Disappointed with my official score and not knowing what to do next, I attended the e-Gmat free session and then I realised that I neither had a process nor a focus on key aspects such as author's intended meaning in SC, his line of reasoning in CR or the intention behind an RC passage. Thus, after the free session ,I joined the e-GMAT course.

As I completely followed the e-Gmat course, the most difficult part was not to learn the new process oriented approach but to get rid of the gimmicks and solving techniques that I had learned earlier. I followed the course plan sincerely and thus my accuracies improved in all the verbal sub-sections. As I put in diligent efforts, so I got into the Last Mile Program and I got a dedicated mentor.

I am very thankful to Rida mam for guiding me through the whole process, for attending to different weak areas one by one and most importantly for hearing out all my woes and cries with verbal for so long.

Since then ,my GMAT scores have only gone up. I recently scored a V42 on the official Gmat,which is yet to be officially reported. I doubt that this jump from V27 were possible without the constant help and mentorship from Rida mam. The Last Mile program is really one of its kind and really helped me focus on the key aspects. This includes understanding at a granular level what my strengths and weaknesses are and helping me to build the right strategy to work on them.

I now have a structured process to solve the verbal section, a process that focuses on understanding the author and realising the true intent of a passage rather than on merely solving. It is now that I realise the beauty of this test, and what skills it focuses on. This realisation took quite a long time as I wasted a lot of precious time on gimmicks and shortcuts suggested by other prep companies in my earlier phases of Gmat Prep.

Strengths:

The Verbal section was good, especially the practice questions after each section. Helped me build my knowledge step by step.

Would make the product better:

I prefer to read and learn at my own pace. E-Gmat mostly has video explanations for everything. Though they did have written explanations for lots of questions, I would love to see more of that so people have the option to read or watch a video.

Quant: I didn't really do most of the Lessons for quant from e-gmat, but I did do practice questions for all topics, and those were nothing to complain about. All questions had good explanations.

Verbal: I did all the lessons for verbal, and it really helped me. The questions were well explained and the content was quite good as well. I really used to struggle with SC, but all the tips and tricks taught in the course helped me improve. I didn't really retain most of the grammar rules by the end of the course, but I did gain an understanding of how to go about solving a question and analyzing the problems.

Strengths:

Scholaranium
Sigma-X mocks

Would make the product better:

Response times to emails
Adding AWA and IR to mocks

Hey everyone! I recently took the GMAT and scored a 700, which is a 10-point improvement from my previous score of 690. I scored 690 two times before joining e-gmat. Before going through with e-gmat, I went through many reviews posted on Gmat Club and found e-gmat would be a good platform for me to improve my verbal score. I first had my ESR analyzed by Dhruv Joshi, who was also my mentor for the preparation journey. He curated a plan to make sure I solidified my verbal skills.

The E-gmat course was very structured, having modules for each topic. One thing that stood out to me was the content. Everything was covered properly, and their meaning-based approach to every question helped me a lot. I was struggling in CR before, but the pre-thinking framework that is taught in e-gmat helped me with CR tremendously. Their cementing quizzes made sure that I solidified my learning.

Their quant course content is also really good. And the Sigma-X mocks closely mimic the real GMAT. I would suggest they add the AWA and IR sections as well to the mocks. Also, it would be better if the response times to emails by the support team were a bit faster.

My mentor, Dhruv Joshi, has been very helpful to me in this journey, as he guided me in the best way possible.

Overall, I was happy with the course and recommend others also to give it a try.

I have divided my review into the following segments:

1. Course Structure
The structure of the content has been designed very well. Across both Quant and Verbal, there were ability quizzes along with cementing quizzes that helped identify the preparation level and provided detailed information about the key areas of mistakes and timing issues. The question pool is great with options to select the type of questions (Correct, Incorrect etc). Moreover, the mode of quizzes and video solutions helped enhanced the overall learning experience.
2. Content – Verbal
Sentence Correction – The meaning-based approach was quite helpful. I was able to apply the relevant concepts and use the three-step process across most of the questions that enhanced my SC score in the exams.
CR – The Pre-thinking approach is quite effective. After struggling with CR in the initial stages, I began to apply pre-thinking approach more consciously that improved my accuracy. The approach helped me eliminate the irrelevant answer choices and evaluate the correct choices in a better way.
RC – The passages in the quizzes and mocks were of a good level and provided effective practice for the real exam.

3. Content – Quant
For Quants, the quizzes were most helpful. The type of questions are relatively difficult compared to the real exam but it helped me prepare well for the exam and improved my timing. Taking a good amount of quizzes across all the topics helped me identify the key strength and weakness.

4. Mocks
The Sigma X mocks are a good indicator of the actual performance of the exam. The mocks provide ESR analysis along with detailed solutions and timing distribution that helped me understand my improvement areas. I was able to focus on specific topics of CR and SC through the mock analysis provided.

5. Last Mile Push (LMP) Program
After I had completed my preparation and began with the final lap of my preparation, I had reached out to E-GMAT team for certain improvement strategies. Rashmi from E-GMAT team contacted me and we started with the LMP program. Since I was struggling with time in mocks and faced difficulty in certain areas of Verbal, she helped me identify where I was going wrong and provided detailed study plan to be followed. She was very proactive in taking a regular progress check and gave effective suggestions such as practicing LSAT passages for RC and following strict timing rules for every block of questions in the verbal section. Additionally, the importance of letting go of questions that I was unsure of and keeping a positive mindset helped me on the D-day. The program was one of the best part of my preparation phase as it gave me a structured schedule and distributed my study plan uniformly through all sections.
In my opinion, LMP is a great program to enroll for improving test-taking strategies and streamlining the preparation plan.

Background:
Before joining e-GMAT, I tried T.O.P One Percent because they claimed to be the best and boasted about students getting top scores every day. Sadly, they didn't teach me anything, and it felt like a waste of time and money. I even doubted their honesty. After two and a half months of learning nothing from them, I took my first GMAT test and got a 680, all on my own. I realized I needed help to do better, so I looked for something different.
Why e-GMAT?
I needed a flexible way to learn because I had a busy schedule like many of you. e-GMAT offered that flexibility. I could study at my own pace and choose when to take the exam, whether in 15 days or a month.
About e-GMAT:
What's great about e-GMAT is that they focus on helping you build your skills. They understand that the GMAT tests your abilities, so they prepare you accordingly.
e-GMAT's course covers master comprehension, sentence correction, critical reasoning, and reading comprehension. In master comprehension, they teach you how to read effectively during the exam, which is very helpful, especially for non-native speakers. Their pre-thinking and meaning-based approaches are awesome. With critical reasoning, where answer choices are very close, pre-thinking is essential.
The course gives enough time for each section, and e-GMAT provides useful tools like Scholarnium to track your progress and Sigma X mocks that resemble real GMAT tests.
Strategy Experts:
One of the best things about e-GMAT is the support of experienced GMAT experts like Rashmi Ma'am. She helped me a lot by analyzing my quizzes and providing videos from GMAT experts like Harsha Sir when I needed them.
LMP (Last Mile Prep):
The LMP program teaches you about the GMAT algorithm, time management, and how to be ready for the test.
In short, if you're preparing for the GMAT, I highly recommend e-GMAT. Their flexible program, expert guidance, and useful tools will help you succeed.
