I saw 100% of the Quant Lessons, they proved really handy for the test. I wish I had a greater Quant Split, but it will be just fine. |

I feel that the Magoosh team understood my struggle with basic English concepts and offered me a complimentary english course on their website. The replies to doubts were prompt and explanatory. Video explanations to each questions were really helpful. |

How did Magoosh help you?
"Help" feature in Magoosh was very useful. I strongly feel that just going over any course material would not be sufficient to score a very high percentile. The understanding I developed while practicing was the key deferential and Magoosh played an important role through the Student Help. A special thanks to Jeff Derrenberger who gave a very detailed explanation when I had trouble identifying some irregular verbs as Past participle modifiers. One of the really great things about asking instructors after putting in due effort and trying to come up with alternate explanations was that the learning I gained from the whole experience ( including my innitital futile attempts to understand it) would stick with me. Once again a big thank you for all the Magoosh Student Help experts. I also like the huge collections of problems Magoosh has and each with its own video explanation. I learnt a lot through practice and Magoosh provided ample amount of questions and video explanations to practice from PS: I am fine with you guys using the above points in your marketing material, but please do edit it. Even though, I scored a 42 in verbal , I am not great at writing. I became good at picking out choices through a combination of logic and rudimentary Grammar rules. |

Having a 3-month outline to follow in conjunction with all required materials was excellent for someone who didn't want to spend thousands on prep. Only ingredient needed was diligence, and the program definitely delivered. Even with the 720 on first take, I'm thinking I'll probably go deeper, finish the lessons & problems, and try to get my Quant up before applications. Excellent program and even better value. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh was extremely helpful in preparing for the Quantitative section of the GMAT. The practice questions and explanations were clear and were reflective of the actual test material. As a result of using Magoosh I felt much more confident and prepared when taking the real GMAT. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped improve my math score more than anything else. I didn't study when I took the test previously a few years ago, this time I put in the work to seriously bump my Quant, and make my Verbal even more competitive. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped identify tips and tricks that are particular to the GMAT, whether those were a type of geometry problem that is common on the test or sentence structure that the GMAT doesn't like. I learned a lot from watching the videos and reading the descriptions under the practice problems. |

Eh, I watched literally 0 verbal videos, but I think Magoosh may have helped me on the quant a little - the 710 above is an official GMAT practice test score. I may have needed a bit more time with the material! May retake :) |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh really helped with every aspect of my preparation. The lesson videos, as well as the answer explanation videos, really aided in my progression. The practice tests were spot on and I really appreciated the instant feedback. My highest score on a Magoosh practice test was a 650, and I received a 660 on the GMATprep practice test. These two practice tests seemed harder than the actual GMAT, which really enhanced my confidence during the test...at no point during the test did I feel like I had no idea what I was doing. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh was a fantastic resource to improve my GMAT score. I made a large jump relative to where I was scoring after having gone through a Veritas Prep course before medical school, which was also 10 times more expensive than Magoosh. Even while in medical school, I was able to work through these problems efficiently and score well despite having to balance other academic commitments. Without this course, I would not have received the fellowship making business school free. Thank you Magoosh! |

I really like the test questions bank! It includes questions of every aspect covered by GMAT as well as monitors the computer adaptive feature of actual exam very well. The expected score that the system calculates is very similar to my actual score. |
