How did Magoosh help you?
Gave me a structured program to follow, very well explained answers (way easier than reading answers!), and made the study experience entertaining with all of the videos from Mike. I love how he teaches and how he speaks at a consistent speed (so I can speed up to 1.5x :)) |

I used Magoosh primarily as a bank of practice questions; I used Manhattan GMAT books to learn the concepts/format of the test. Overall, I thought Magoosh was a great way to practice efficiently/effectively, as well as a great value. |

The math lessons were excellent, and focused on the concepts needed for the test. While I found them difficult, I realized that, come test day, Magoosh had prepared me to do as well as possible, not just to improve on my previous score. |

The video explanations, in particular, were the most helpful part of Magoosh. It really helped hone the concepts required for the Quantitative questions. The materials for some of the theory and exam were great as well. The vast amount of question bank helped. |

I personally love learning via decentralised video tutoring. Has been so while at university, which started to offer some sessions online, and did not change hence. It allows you to go back and forth if you did or did not understand material well. In case there is a deeper problem, the Magoosh help button is always readily available, as your staff is. Good job. Oh, also: Mike McGarry has a very reassuring voice -- a "together we can do it"-voice. |

My first practice test (without any real studying) was a 690. Magoosh helped me improve my score by 50 points! As a student that prefers self-study, Magoosh provided all of the tools I needed to review/learn the content being tested on the GMAT. I didn't use any outside tools except for GMAC and Veritas practice tests. I highly recommend Magoosh to any student! |

Magoosh helped by providing very in depth explanations to the answers to the questions and also the video lessons helped to refresh concepts that were previously learnt in school that have been forgotten. Magoosh also provides mant time saving strategies that was very useful when I took the Gmat. The staff at Magoosh were very knowledgeable and helpful when I emailed them with further enquires. |
