I was doing most of my studying in the early morning and really wanted to continue that routine, so it was nice to find a tutor who was awake at that time as well!
Bransen started out each session by going over the homework that I had in between sessions and then going over new topics. I was really struggling with verbal, but Bransen gave me a lot of great pointers regarding how to tackle CR and the RC section, which were my weakest areas. I kept his pointers in mind during my second attempt, but was just super nervous and got two hrs of sleep the night before. I also switched my testing order last minute which is a no-no. Needless to say, I didn't do too hot on the verbal section the second time around, but KILLED the quant section (50Q).
Bransen was very encouraging leading up to my 3rd attempt and gave me pointers on how to be successful the 3rd time around.
I kept reviewing GMAT-like questions and all the GMAT Ninja worksheets that Bransen gave me, slept for 8 hours every day leading up to the exam and kept my usual testing order. I'm happy to say that I jumped up to a 41 in Verbal and am so glad to be done with this exam. Thanks Bransen so much for your help!

My GMAT journey was an interesting one, I had been studying for ~1 year before I reached out to GMATNinja. I had used a very popular GMAT online course for both quant and verbal prior to tutoring, and although I felt like I knew all the rules for the test, my execution was erratic.

My practice test scores reflected my erratic processes, as my scores ranged from 650-690, even though I felt as if I could do more. After reaching out to Charles, he quickly connected me with Bransen.

Over the next two months, we worked diligently in a structured way to target verbal (specifically CR and RC) as well as quant. Bransen was very deliberate in his approach and provided real-time feedback during our sessions that helped me adjust my thinking process and led to continuous improvement. On Quant, Bransen was quick to point out that where I was losing the most points was on careless errors, which were holding me back from reaching my potential. After eliminating these careless errors, he convinced me that I could achieve a strong quant score.

After two months of work, I took the test and received a 760 (Q49/V45). I am very happy with my decision to reach out to Charles a few months back and grateful to work with Bransen, whose methodical approach and patience working with me were instrumental in achieving my GMAT score goal.

I would recommend GMATNinja to anyone who is looking to take the next step towards an elite score on the test! These guys really know what it takes!
