331

I purchased a couple Manhattan Prep books, ETS's Official Guide, different phone apps, etc. yet I ended up using Magoosh's online application almost exclusively. I work full time and was only able to study after work and weekends. I was exhausted most nights after work before I even sat down to study... without the structure that Magoosh provides I would not have been able to be nearly as effective. I did not want to take the test more than once and my target was a 330. I scored a 331; what else can I say? Magoosh was literally a fraction of the price of the other paid resources. It has everything you need, trust me.

Magoosh helped keep me on track, at a much lower price point than other test prep systems. I followed the one-month plan, and was happy to do small pieces of prep each day. While I couldn't keep up the pace with a full-time job (as the guide warned me), I still believe Magoosh helped me a lot. I learned general strategies (number sense, not looking at the verbal answers without my own answer), a sense for timing, and most importantly, I always had a plan to follow so I couldn't second-guess myself.

Magoosh was very helpful to me. I could access to all the topics needed for GRE at one place. The videos were done will lot to thought. The lecturer used to tell the same things what we would think. For example in reading comprehension, I used to get bored, reading big paragraphs. But the lecturer would point to same thing ,that we will get bored so feel excited. Overall it was good.

The practice questions made a huge difference! I would trip up and remember I had forgotten to study something, so I ended up covering everything before the exam :)

I followed the 90 day study plan for advanced students. It was very helpful because I could follow the schedule and wasn't overwhelmed with deciding which study materials to use and how and when to use them. The Magoosh lesson videos and explanation videos for the questions are great and the questions in Magoosh are harder than the ones on the actual test. Magoosh does a great job at teaching strategy, which is crucial for a test such as the GRE.

Magoosh is amazing! The video tutorials help a lot in addition to the answer videos. The team was incredible with it's support on email too.
Every piece of content @Magoosh helps.
I think the most important role Magoosh plays is in it's quality of questions. The questions are really close the GRE and no other product I've used comes close.

The videos helped immensely with regards to approaching the essay sections of the exam. The math was also nicely organized and broken down in the videos so it was easier to understand. Also it helps that the practice questions were so similar to the exam.

The sheer number of questions that I got to practice with on Magoosh was incredibly helpful, but the video tutorials and explanations for the Math section was single-handedly what allowed me to get my math score that high.

Yes, it helped me structure my preparation. The analysis part is especially good. I made good use of the 'review' tab. The depth it offers is unparalleled. Speaking for myself, I work full time, had just a little over one month to prepare for GRE; if not for Magoosh, I don't think my GRE preparations could have been even half as good.

Magoosh helped me become familiar with the kinds of problems that would appear on the test, gave me many opportunities to practice, and it provided very helpful video explanations. I also used the Vocab app, which really helped.
