How did Magoosh help you?
I started off with a strong foundation and used Magoosh to strengthen my weak spots. The study plans were very useful. The video explanations helped a lot as well. My highest practice test score was 710, so I was very happy with my score. |

A good crash course refresher on topics long since dormant in my brain as well as the peculiar question types of the gmat. I greatly appreciated the math approach of building a foundation built upon fundamentals and not just a formula cram session. |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh provided me with a structured GMAT study plan. I took the GMAT twice before signing up for Magoosh. I didn't really take the test seriously the first time and was poorly prepared. For my second try I hired a tutor and used the Official Guide books. I scored a disappointing 650. I decided that I needed to evaluate how I was studying and try something new. Magoosh was a great fit for me since I am a visual learner. I followed the Advanced Study Plan (although it took me five months, not three). The thorough explanations after each question were awesome. I also liked that I could enter notes directly under questions or lessons. This was really helpful for review later on. The actual test was a lot easier than all of the practice questions and tests that I had done. I didn't think a score this high was possible. BIG thanks to Mike and all of the team members who responded to all of the questions I had. |

I am a visual learner, so video explanations really changed the study process for me for the better. If you do not retain information well exclusively from reading, Magoosh is a tremendous resource. |

The video explanations of each question were great. More than just explaining the concepts, over time, I really learned what traps to avoid and how I should approach each type of problem. |

Magoosh video lessons was extremely helpful. Since I didn't have much time to prepare to my exam, I took every chance to watch or just listen Magoosh lessons on my iPhone, iPad, or laptop. It was very convenient that Magoosh is a multi platfrom offering full synchronization among all devices. |
