How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me tremendously. I owe much of my success to Magoosh. It truly gave me that confidence in feeling prepared to take the GMAT. Before I signed up for Magoosh, the quantitative section gave me a real hard time, especially DS questions. I used Magoosh's 3 month math-specific study schedule to tackle my weakness in Math. I did all the problems, reviewed them daily, and made sure I understood where I went wrong. I just got done taking the actual GMAT exam today and I received a score of 660 (47Q, 34V). I've never received higher than a 43 on any of my practice exams. I am so happy. All the hard work paid off and Magoosh played a large part in my success. I thank everyone at this website for their help! I can't thank you guys enough! I'm done with the GMAT! tHANK YOU MAGOOSH! =D |

How did Magoosh help you?
Your product was fantastic because it allowed me to see the broad range of types of questions asked on the GMAT, and it showed me answers to questions I didn't answer correctly. In addition, it took the answers a step further and explained the steps needed to arrive at the correct answer. The written explanations and videos were also extremely helpful. |

I think it helped most in my pacing strategy, and the explanations and videos helped a lot. The best part, however, is that you can set the preferences for the practices to be adaptive, which helps you get in the GMAT zone. |

How did Magoosh help you?
I used the Magoosh videos and practice questions as my primary method of study. I found it very effective at summarizing key concepts and materials tested on the GMAT. The lessons were concise yet provided enough detail to understand the topic. I only had 2.5 weeks to prepare and having been out of University for 7 years I was very rusty on the math concepts and theory. I fit my GMAT preparation in during lunch hours, evenings and weekends while balancing work. I credit Magoosh for increasing my score by 110 points. |

Helped greatly in refamiliarizing myself with the math section. I did not get to use the product fully before my test date, but I'm certain my score would have been a lot higher. Videos are a great way to learn (better than what the competition offers). |

How did Magoosh help you?
The math videos were outstanding. They offer a solid review of the basic concepts tested in the GMAT. I reviewed my notes several times a few days before the test. The interface looks cool and highly conductive for study. The problems offers excellent practice as well. Much of my prep time is devoted to the Medium and Hard Problems. If I had more time, I could have tackled the 'Very hard' problems. The verbal also offers good practice especially for RC. Although I focused on Quant on much of my prep time, practicing on some RC Passages and doing a lot of CR questions a few days before the test did gave me a good warm up before I appeared for the actual test. Cheers to the highly dependable Support Team as well. Over-all, this product helped me a lot in my preparation for the GMAT. My score is perfectly fine for my pre-experience masters. I will definitely revisit this product once I decide to pursue an MBA in the future and decide to take the GMAT once more. |
