Sivagami – :
I opted for e-gmat after my first attempt of GMAT and can attest to the fact that it is a great resource especially for those in the work force who haven’t had the rhythm of studying for some time. It offers you to customize your study plan based on the date you decide to take your GMAT and allows you to improve your sectional scores as well by offering detailed feedback of your progress. The structure with which the resource is built is commendable and extremely helpful in preparation for the exam.

José Campos Costa – :
e-GMAT is a fantastic, comprehensive tool for everyone to start their own journey towards acing the GMAT. With its diverse set of exercises and explanatory videos – from initial, foundational modules to more challenging ones -, e-GMAT provides a great way to, at our own pace, adequately prepare for the GMAT (verbal and quant).
I was able to get 730 in my first attempt, with less than 3 months of studying, only looking at e-GMAT content!

Siddharth – :
eGMAT was the study buddy I needed to ace my GMAT exam. I initially took the GMAT without official prep and ended up scoring a 660. As soon as I signed up on the eGMAT platform, I got access to the well-structured modules. I was always good at Quants and knew I needed some serious help with verbal to achieve my target score. Within a week, I was part of a cohort led by a mentor who proved to be a true guide. I really liked the weekly targets given that helped me stay on track.
In spite of the pandemic, the virtual support kept me at the top of my game. I ended up scoring my target score of 750, which would have been a lot more difficult had I not taken up the eGMAT course…

Your MBA Application & School Advice:
Focus on one thing at a time. I got GMAT out of my way first and with my score, I knew the range of schools I could target. Don't focus a lot on school rankings. It is important to find your fit with the school culture. Ultimately, GMAT is just a number and it doesn't guarantee you a spot in the M7s or the Ivy Leagues. I learned this the hard way having spent two years applying to B-Schools when I could have started my MBA journey much sooner. The GMAT application is a journey filled with introspection. I believe it has made me learn so much about myself.

I followed all the EGmat courses available on the platform, it helped me improve my score from 460 to 640 in 2 months. I thought the course helped me more in the verbal section.

Ravali K – :
The best part of the e-gmat course is self-paced learning. It enabled me to prepare for the GMAT with a full-time job. The content is really good(especially the Sentence Correction section) and the tests before and after a lesson helped me in cementing the concepts. For GMAT, the application of concepts is really important and the practice portal helped me in achieving that.

Get done with GMAT ASAP, be yourself in the essays, and start the reflection process early. Choose schools based on whether or not they fulfill your post-MBA goals and not based on rankings.
Divya Gambhir – :
Overall EGMAT’s course is good, especially for Sentence Correction and Critical Reasoning. The topic-wise quizzes really help in building a strong base for the GMAT test. I believe that the method to solve RC is excessively long and is difficult to replicate during exam day.
I particularly liked E-GMAT’s question bank – Scholaranium which has amazing GMAT-like questions and really helped me in making progress from easy to difficult level questions.
One improvement area for EGMAT is to provide better doubt clarification support.

UW Foster 2024
Your MBA Application & School Advice:
Focus on GMAT first and try to have a very structured preparation schedule i.e. clarity on timelines, target score, common GMAT mistakes etc. This will help in getting the desired score without having to take the exams multiple times. Apply to those schools that will help in achieving your post-MBA goals (refer to their employment stats for clarity). Reflect on your life journey and key anecdotes, both of which will help shape your responses to the essays. Application essays need to convey your story and hence self-reflection is of utmost importance. Once you have decided on a set of schools to apply for, always contact alumni and current students of those schools to know more about the MBA program and how you can contribute to the school's priorities, if admitted.

Nikhil Goyal – :
I would strongly recommend the e-GMAT course on Sentence Correction. The way the content is delivered is great and it contains the right level of detail. E-GMAT consistently stresses that it is the meaning & the context of the sentence that needs to be understood before tackling any sentence correction question.
I would strongly recommend non-native and native speakers of English to try out e-GMAT courses.

My best advice is to be honest and open to what you are looking to get out of the program. UWM has an excellent program which is very inclusive for all backgrounds and experience levlels.
Somto Ibe – :
Biggest advantage: Very thorough modules. Infact at some points, it feels too thorough but the good news is that it’s not just teaching, you also get the opportunity to solve lots of quiz questions that really solidify the concepts.
And then of course, there’s the scholarium which is their question bank. Lots of great questions to cement the concepts.
Thanks to e-GMAT my critical reasoning and number properties competency increased significantly. Those were the two areas I saw the greatest improvement but overall I will say that their content is pretty solid.
Biggest disadvantage: It really does take a while to go through all of the material and at some point, it feels like there’s no progress. My recommendation is to continue the prep, it gets better eventually.

Suradis Seemakhupt – :
I took the E-GMAT Verbal course, and its strategies to tackle each questions are phenomenal. For example, in SC, it changed the way I dealt with each question, from remembering only grammar rules and doing a vertical scan to understanding the intended meaning and spending most of the time on the original option. Also in CR, its Pre-thinking method really help me avoid being tricked by wrong choices. In short, its approaches really helped me to enhance accuracy while increasing speed for each question.

Will McMinn – :
I originally spent a lot of money signing up for Vertias’ live course. This experience merely only provided me with an introduction to the test format and was not conducive to deepening my understanding of strategies. I then came across EGMAT and everything clicked. Their abundance of free resources was enough to not only keep me busy, but also allowed me to obtain a strong understanding of test and truly build my confidence. Finding EGMAT was the true turning point in my GMAT prep and led me to scoring a 720 and landing a spot at my dream M7 school.

I really enjoyed using e-GMAT when I was studying for the GMAT. I initially tried studying by myself but realized I needed structure and an easy way to identify my areas of opportunity. e-GMAT gave me that. I also loved the study schedule tool and the ability to see what a realistic test date would be. That saved me a lot of time and money. I eventually switched to the GRE due to test availability during Covid but I found that the Quant skills I learned from e-GMAT was transferrable.

Your MBA Application & School Advice:
Apply when you're actually ready and only apply to schools you would realistically go to. I initially had a plan to apply to 10 schools to "keep my options open" but I found that at the end I was really only interested in a handful of schools. That saved me time and money.For each school I asked myself..."If this was the only school I got into, would I go?" If the answer was yes, then I applied. Be realistic about the amount of time and energy you have to give and also about which programs are the best fit for you.

Nishant Panigrahi – :
I took the E-GMAT Quant Online after I had subscribed to their excellent Verbal Online Prep. As expected the quant course is very well structured and excellent for people who don’t have a quant heavy background. That is not to say that the course is not useful for students who have an intensive-quant background. I took up the Gmat preparation after 5 years in service and the course got me up to speed with the format of the GMAT, the structure of the questions and the quickest methods to solve problems. In the next couple of sections, I will explain what worked for me and what I did not like in the course offering.
Quant-Online
Course Structure
The Structure of the course is super-easy to follow and makes for an interesting read. People who want to brush their knowledge of a certain topic will find the course structure really easy. One can pick up individual topics and follow the sequence to go thru the theory, the application files and the practice questions to gain a complete understanding. Further, the comfort of doing the course at your own pace and in your own time is a really great option.
Course Concepts and Questions
The course breaks down tough concepts into easy to understand videos and slides. Before starting the course, I knew I had trouble with algebra. The online courses on algebra are excellent and it gave me a firm grip on the subject. The Number Properties Course, Probability and P&C are also excellent courses. The course gets down to the basics and helps to build the concept right from the ground up. Because of the course’s focus on the basics, complemented with GMAT-like questions, I thoroughly recommend the course to people who are short on time.
Scholaranium
Scholaranium is the Gold-Standard of analysis. Those who have used the Verbal Online prep are aware of the usefulness of the Platform. The Quant online Scholaranium is quite detailed and really gives you an idea about your weaknesses and helps you prepare by practising more questions of a certain type. The scholaranium has the option of letting you choose between Easy, Medium, Hard and Very Hard questions. The Easy, Medium and Hard Categories are true representations of the Questions on the GMAT. However, I felt that the Very Hard Category Questions are long and difficult questions that I can’t imagine to solve within the stipulated timeline of 2mins/questions. The rest of the questions are really great and these are some of the toughest questions you will ever find. I would go a step further and also liken the questions standards to the Quant Questions on the GMAT Club. Scholarannium also provides a detailed solution with an ability to bookmark and review the questions.
Quant Workshops
The Quant workshops are tests conducted by the E-Gmat team. These tests give you a detailed feedback on your strengths and weaknesses. This is a must-try for anyone who is looking to improve his/her score
All in All, I wholeheartedly recommend the course to students. The course is flexible enough to adapt the different requirements and will truly help you understand the areas of improvement.

While signing up for GMAT Club, I had received a trial access to eGMAT. I instantly liked it, and purchased the whole package. The curriculum and the sessions were not daunting at all, they’re actually very fun to learn with. And the tests after every module provided a real-time check of my learning curve.
I couldn’t attend all the live sessions, but the recordings came in handy and saved a lot of time.
By the time I finished the modules, SC and CR became a piece of cake. My accuracy increased to about 85% and I could actually reason with myself if I marked the answer wrong.
I would also like to mention that both Rajat and Payal’s promptness in answering my questions, or getting back to me whenever I needed them was beyond expectations. Their team would get back to me within 10-12 hours, at times sooner. Not that I needed a lot of help, because the videos were self-explanatory, but they were always there to address any admin-related query.

I didn’t find the videos as helpful as the questions, and i would stay away from the “super hard” difficulty level as it is way beyond the gmat. for verbal again- i didn’t find the lecture videos particularly helpful but DEFINITELY recommend the practice questions they have. overall egmat was helpful in securing a 750+ score.

Your MBA Application & School Advice:
plan in advance- schools don't like last minute gmat scores and applications. focus on first getting a good score and then plan to apply the next year since doing all at once is stressful.

i took the egmat verbal course it really helps to learn the concepts. You can save time, I had reviewed several materials of different companies and websites, but those materials were not clear enough. the advantage of this course is that they explain the concepts that are evaluated in the official gmat guide.

Akhilesh keshap – :
I took the E-gmat course in 2014 when I started preparing for the GMAT. As a non-native , my Achilles heel was the verbal section. After studying myself with the official material I had purchased I gave a few mock GMATs and my verbal score did not increase. I read through a lot of forums and found that E-gmat was a good resource for the non-natives. I enrolled myself for the free course and liked it so much that I bought the whole package. It was really useful for me and I did end up getting V40 on the verbal and 730 on the GMAT eventually.

Only use official guide for practice questions.
E-gmat is good to learn the concepts but the official guide should be the bible you have to sleep by.

Daniel Monteiro – :
It was great. I saw my score improving after finishing my on-demand course in only 2 weeks. The exercises are a little bit different of the real test, but they give you a good improve in your verbal skills, then I suggest to take all Official Guide exercises, and e-gmat have the solutions using their approach to you check later.

E-GMAT.com started out as the best Verbal prep company. I think they still retain the position in the market. Their content is very easy to interpret for non-native speakers.
Rajat and his team breakdown verbal concept into a set of rules which are easy to understand and revise. Further, there is ample amount of handholding and testing that would lead you to be successful.
