“If you take on a task, give it your 200%, or else don’t take that task on at all”. This is what Payal often tells her students, her team members, and even her daughter.

A perfectionist to the core, she gives everything her best without cutting any corners. No wonder she has been a topper throughout her academics. She was the topper (the absolute topper, not just 99 percentile) in the 12th grade State of Haryana board exam taken by more than 1 million people.

Pursing her passion of making learning effective and enjoyable, Payal is constantly thinking of better ways to impart skills to people – whether it is how to read a passage more efficiently, how to deconstruct a sentence, or how to train other experts. At e-GMAT, Payal oversees curriculum development, expert training, and all operational activities. In a nutshell, she is committed to the success of all e-GMAT-ers.

I have reviewed verbal course materials from many other sources before I decided to purchase e-GMAT verbal prep. This course definitely designed for non-natives. The course starts with basic fundamentals which I had forgotten over the period of the time. E-GMAT SC course provides step by step guidance on how to crack SC accurately and efficiently. The instructor teaches very well on how to break the sentences / paragraph and take benefit of few other techniques to solve RC, CR. The instructors are very nice and have patience for the students. I found the course is very affordable too. As it’s an online course, it gives me the flexibility to read at my own pace and time.
I strongly recommend to upcoming GMAT takers to explore e-GMAT courses for GMAT preparation.

Concepts and application never looked that easy

I am an IITian but after working on repetitive tasks for about 12 years made my sharp brain a bit slow and when I gave some mocks back in 2013 I was very disheartened with my results, That kind of affected my confidence as not only I was not able to go beyond 30-34 in verbal but also couldn't manage 50 in quant and that time I thought I needed a serious plan and material to practice with after analysing my techniques I figured out that my concepts and their application was not spot on and because of that I was wasting a lot of time too. Then through gmat club and online reviews I found e-gmat. Although I could not study for another 2 years because of work and personal stuff but now I am back on track to sit for GMAT and I am lot more confident in quant as well as in verabal. This is by far be the best online course I have ever seen and any hard copy or soft copy material. I would recommend e-gmat to anyone without thinking twice, money well spent. I have never thought concepts would look that easy to me.

After studying on my own for gmat for 3-4 months, I signed up for e-gmat course. I started with SC course and it was really helpful. The way of breaking a complex sentence into clauses and clearly identifying SV pair etc really boosted my confidence in SC. CR and RC course was also useful but SC section really stand out for me. Instructors are very knowledgeable and help you learn the right ways and methods to tackle GMAT. Rajat's strategy sessions are also useful. I would recommend e-gmat course for non-natives or any one who is struggling with verbal section.

As someone who works in consulting industry which involves a lot of traveling,i was looking for an online option which could help me in my GMAT preparation.After a bit of research, I zeroed in on e-GMAT & took their Verbal online course subscription.

Coming to the course content, it is divided into three modules:CR,RC & SC.Each module begins with an introduction to the concepts & builds from there on.After each concept your understanding is tested through quizzes(not timed). At the end of the entire module,you are tested through timed quizzes.I like this approach as it helps you to focus on accuracy first & then as you gain foothold in the concept,time is factored in as well.

Also, you are taught the importance of pre thinking in CR,methods to quickly summarize RC's and methods to quickly solve SC question.These concepts if mastered over time should help you to get a pretty good score.There is a section called "Scholaranium"for those of you who want to have a go at a large number of practice questions.Overall i am very satisfied with their content & pedagogy.Highly recommend the course to GMAT aspirants.

The best online preparation for Gmat

I think e-Gmat is the best online preparation for Gmat with really reasonable price, infact I have taken princeton review classroom prep and I would still recommend egmat. I was never the online classes person, I mean I have some serious ADD, online classes were risky, but egmat honestly kept me more engaged than one on one personal sessions with Princeton review!! The design, structure, delivery, curriculum and supporting materials (which include Mocks, CATs, Forums, Online sessions and workshops) are perfect and have made the learning experience very effective for me. The teaching is clear and the language is very comprehensible. The practice files and queues are very useful to apply what I have learned.

The best Quant prep I have ever come across. Before e-Gmat Quant, I used several prep materials ( Books and online) including Kaplan, MGMAT and Princeton Review. The only one helped me during that period was MGMAT, but my score was around 40-41 and I couldn't improve it. But with e-Gmat I have noticed a big different in my performance. I wish I purchased egmat right at the beginning.

I have had a bad time preparing for GMAT because no mater what I have done nothing has helped.I came across Egmat and enrolled after a free live session and I don't regret my decision .. In fact i have drastically improved in verbal and many quant topics.. on the second test day however I scored badly ,because ....
I was anxious nervous lost my cool and messed up bad ..
I believe i still havent given my best ...Nope 530 is not my best .. its not even close to my worst .. I am giving it again and will make it happen...
Egmat course has helped fill a lot of gaps in basic understanding of tackling questions and I have a much clear and defined process/approach which is actually showing when i take mocks now .. I hope to keep this high tide and sail through the real GMAT...

Hey guys ! Finally done with the GMAT. Got 710 & I am happy with my score. Special credits to e-GMAT. Its verbal Online course helped me apply perfect approach towards verbal section. Awesome course for SC section. No other course can come even closer.What helped me the most in the SC part is the thorough discussions on all OG questions. The practice exercises provided at the end of every concept prepare you to tackle any SC question with a lot of confidence. Highly stuctured course and a must for all non-native aspirants who are not very confident about their verbal part.

I am Non native English speaker. I have tried various sources for my verbal prep and tried to remember a number of rules without understanding the concepts, just scoring around V19.

I came across e-gmat in gmat club and attended free webinar on sc. After the class I got some hope that I can improve, so I went all in with e-gmat live prep course.

Concept files are excellent with simple expels to understand the concepts. I learned more than half of the verbal concepts for the first time on e-gmat platform. Live class great to learn the application of the concepts learned. I am more confident now than I was at the beginning of my prep. I highly recommend this course, especially, for those who need to build up their concepts from scratch.

Thanks E-gmat for your support in building up my arsenal to face gmat exam.

I took my first GMAT attempt on September 14th 2015 and scored 640[Q48, V31].
e-GMAT Verbal Live Prep was of great help in achieving the result.

Following features of the live prep really helped me:

Live discussion of problems:
The instructor will take a problem and will explain every stage of the approach- right from reading the sentence to marking the right answer.

Ask a question on the spot:
A user can ask the question at any time during the discussion. It really helped me to get my doubts quickly resolved.

Sharing the recording of the live sessions:
This feature was really helpful in cases in which I missed the live session due to my personal commitments.

The step by step approach was really helpful in solving the problems within time limits.

In the end i would like to thanks e-GMAT Verbal Live Prep team for their constant support.

Regards,
Neetu
