How did Magoosh help you?
Mainly in two ways.

Firstly, Magoosh provided a very clear and systematic method for solving the GMAT.

Additionally, the fact that I could pace the lessons as I saw fit was not only a huge advantage, but also allowed me to dedicate longer time to weak points and skip redundant knowledge.

In conjunction with other resources, Magoosh-GMAT helped me solidify math concepts in a way that I found easy to use (e.g computer based). I raised my score from a 500 on practice CAT exams to a 640. If I choose to continue to improve my score, I will definitely make this part of my study plan.

It gave me a great refresher on the basics in quant. The tips were also extremely helpful--especially the pacing. I did not feel rushed at all during the test

It let me see and practice gmat like questions with video explanations. I like the format! My score would probably have been a lot less witout Magoosh! ;)

The premium GMAT review helped by providing a refresher on many of the fundamental skills needed to be successful on the GMAT. In addition, it reinforced those skills through problems which simulated the actual problems on the GMAT. Most importantly, the videos often provided more efficient ways of solving problems and we all know time is key! I can think of 3 DS problems I had on the actual GMAT that I knew had misleading traps and the only reason I got those right were due to having seen the same trap explained on Magoosh!

Magoosh really helped me improve my RC performance. I followed your instructions and my accuracy improved from 70% to over 95%. Also I think your question banks are fantastic!

Sorry it took me this long to respond to the survey. I just got done with shoulder surgery and was out of commission for ten days.

The product is very comprehensive with respect to lessons and practice questions.It explains concepts in a very simple language. The question bank covers a comprehensive range of questions.
In my previous two attempts I scored 650 and 640. I chose Magoosh for my next preparation as it is the only product in the market that offers money back guarantee if there is no improvement of 50 marks. Magoosh offers whatever it promises.

Hats off to Magoosh and the team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The videos were great! They were broken down enough that I didn't feel overwhelmed. I was able to review specific areas without having to go through things I didn't need. The questions were helpful, especially the explainations. I loved the overall layout of the website. It was very user-friendly.
