From the numerous sources available, Magoosh probably offers the best studying lessons of the subjects that appear on the GMAT. The general program of watching the lessons, solving the practice questions, and then watching a dedicated explanation of every solution, is simply the best way to start studying for a standard test. The lessons themselves are fun and engaging, and Magoosh's teachers are very proficient in the subject matter. I specifically want to call out Mike McGarry, whose infinite patience and dedication make Magoosh GMAT as engaging as it is.
Also, the interactive dashboard and the blogs add much to the experience.

The Video explanations MADE the diffrence. Also all the mental math tricks were a God send. The amount of times I 'doubled and halfed' numbers to quickly multiply or used countless other tips that were shown in the videos was really what made the difference. While I got a Q44 on my 700 score, I actually got a Q47 on another gmat I took (got a 690 on that one), so Magoosh really REALLY made the diffrenece for me! Thanks y'all!

The video lessons really helped explain things in a way that was digestible. There were examples in between each of the explanations which helped solidify each of the topics. The practice questions each have explanations which are clear and concise.

Magoosh was amazing. The blog articles, video lessons, quizzes, and practice problems taught me principles and techniques. I learned to recognize patterns and how to take "shortcuts" to finding solutions. I love Magoosh!

Lesson videos were super helpful to review concepts! It’s more engaging to hear/see someone explain a topic and problem solutions than reading about them through the printed official guides.
