Well I took my 1st Gmat on 13th of Sept'16, after studying for almost 3 months, had gone through OG's and VR's 15 and 16 3-4times for this attempt and in my practice tests i was scoring 620-640. But on the test day I scored 590 V23, Q48, IR2 and AWA6. I was quite depressed as I was quite good in academics throughout. Then I read reviews of people who had scored well on Gmat and many of them vouched for Egmat.
After going through Egmat Verbal online, i felt quite confident, as everyone says and i repeat, the SC does take time when you start, but after 2-3 weeks when you are comfortable with the 3 step approach it feels good. Additionally, if the SC is done thoroughly, the approach helps quite much in RC. When i appeared for the first time i skipped one RC and then also I was not able to complete all questions on time. But after going through the course i completed Verbal section 2 mins before time.
So here is what i gained, read carefully and calmly. And when going through the SC after finishing the course, do the OG's and VR's twice over just to understand the approach. Once SC is complete the RC automatically improves. And for CR practice a lot. Do complete the scholaranium and do not forget to check the comments of other students.
The quant tests and verbal tests that we get along with verbal online are quite helpful.
I had score 540 on my GMAT by self study but I wasn't sure if I will be able to improve further b self study. So I took up eGMAT Verbal course and I got 20 point jump in Verbal in my score in a matter of 28 days. I wish I had taken the course earlier. If I had, I would have scored more than 700 easily.
I would recommend this Verbal course to each and everyone who is a non-native speaker and also who is struggling to score well on the GMAT. e-GMAT Verbal online course helped me a lot as I could take it on my own pace.

After being stuck at the same score using Magoosh, I decided to give e-gmat verbal a try.
The materials were very organized and the questions were challenging, yet, similar to Magoosh, it offers a good foundation to your verbal studies, but it doesn't offer any exam oriented materials.
After going through 80% of the questions and the course, I did not improve much on my verbal, I was a bit disappointed by it. I believe that e-gmat is just not a good platform for me.
Some of the videos looked a bit archaic and the website is not designed to induce high performance.
I took my first GMAT prep 4 years ago when I scored V24. I knew that I have to take a structured course to improve on my Verbal. While I seriously started preping for GMAT about 6-7months ago with M'tan prep books, I felt that I was still confused on some of the concepts. Thats when I signed up for e-gmat. e-gmat gives you an organised platform to study all verbal sections. Also, the tests on scholaranium are great source of practice. It helped me to reach a score of V32 - my first GMAT attempt score.
Although I had to sign-up for private tutor who helped me to further improve my verbal score( to V39), egmat laid the necessary foundation, especially in SC and CR sections.
One advise that I have for e-gmat is to include more material and practice questions on idioms. Idioms is one category that I feel is tested quite frequently on GMAT and where native speakers have clear advantage. Practicing idioms can help non-natives to address this weakness - my two cents!
As a working professional, verbal online is an excellent medium via which you can brush up your concepts on the go. Online course allows you to play/pause as per your convenience. The concepts are quite easy to comprehend and the course is specially designed for non-natives. Also, e-gmat team has prepared a comprehensive plan to tackle each section. SC and CR are extremely well designed with adequate no. of examples. Post every concept, there is a practice test which allows you to gauge your success level. While practicing mocks, I have seen significant improvement in both quality and time.
e-GMAT's Verbal Online course was best suited for me as it not only reinforced the fundamentals but also taught me a structured, almost mathematical approach to solving verbal questions. The content is quite thorough and is delivered by excellent faculty through a very user friendly interface. The application files and the practice files at the end of each topic are especially very helpful in clarifying the concepts learned. The strategies advocated for each section (SC, CR & RC) have definitely helped me enhance my approach to solving verbal questions under testing conditions and have also helped me improve my accuracy (especially in SC). I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wishes to ace the verbal section of the GMAT.
I started preparing for GMAT in September 2015 - OG + e-gmat SC course. I thought I was doing well with the preparations and was following official guide religiously. I was scoring decent on mocks as well. I scored 660 in the first mock and 690 in second mock. I revised and practiced with questions & practice exams from Veritas prep. I bought exam pack 2 and re-appeared for 2 Mocks. I scored 690 and 710. My aim was 710 which seemed close. I appeared for first attempt in April 2016 and ended up scoring 660(Q49/V33) :(. I was very disappointed and realized that I had messed up in verbal section really bad. That's when I realized that my weak section was not just SC but the approach I used to take to tackle Verbal problems. That is when I bought complete verbal online course from e-gmat and started preparing. E-gmat course helped me formulate the right approach for verbal section by focusing more on meaning and identifying the errors before looking at the answers. This helped me really well. In my second attempt I ended up scoring 760(Q50/V42).
I am very grateful to e-gmat team. They extended my course enrollment dates without any extra cost after my first attempt. The course material is also very well built and organized. Kudos and Thanks to entire e-gmat team!!
After I gave my GMAT for the first time, i realized i needed to buckle down and get a good score on verbal. I bought the e-GMAT verbal subscription and it has helped me a lot. In my latest mock test, i can see a difference of 10 points, which helps me in reaching my goal of cracking into 700! The videos are interactive and have a nice flow to them. The end of video quiz is a nice feature and helps you summarize the chapter.
I would recommend GMAT verbal course for everyone, specially for those whose first language is not english.
I gave my first GMAT attempt and scored 600(49, 24). I am a non-native. After this attempt, I was struggling to find the right course and after going through several reviews I opted for e-gmat Verbal online. The course is great and it provides a comprehensive and methodical way to approach and solve CR, SC and RC.
I really liked the SC and CR approach. To be honest, I didn't go through much of the RC section.
Prethinking in CR and meaning first in SC really help me to tackle GMAT questions.
Few msitakes that I made during my preparation while going through the course, may be it can be helpful for anyone who is opting for this course:
1. The application files and practical files, quizzes after each topic, should be treated as check points, for example if you score less than 75% in Parallelism, then you need more practice on this topic. Review the concepts again and apply them to Official Guide questions.
2. One of the gem of this course is scholaranium. very helpful tool to analyze and improve the score. I wish I had utilized this tool to its full potential. There were files in which I scored less and still moved on to the Scholaranium. I ignored the signs that could have given me a realistic estimate of where I stood in my preparation.
3. Do not ignore Skill Data section in scholaranium dashboard. You can fine tune your preparation to a very good degree
I ended up scoring 690(49,34). Though my overall score improved by 90 points and Verbal score by 10 points, the real challenge starts from this score :P
I feel that the course did a fair job.
I am a non native, but I always thought that my spoken and written English is almost perfect. Lately, when I started preparing for GMAT, I got that realization that the colloquial English is different from pure grammatical and logical English. As a result, I struggled with my verbal section's score. Then finally I signed up at egmat and undertook its 3 step approach for SC and specific approaches for RC and CR. The content is organized nicely with n number of examples and practice questions. Provided that one put in one's own share of efforts, this course can do wonders with your verbal score. Since i am still preparing to give another shot at gmat, I could feel that I am improving my method to approach questions.
