You, Our Next Thriving Student?

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.

Great prep for the type of questions on the GRE

math videos were great

It was super easy to focus on what I wanted to focus on and figure out what I was struggling with.

The video explanation for practice problems is awesome

Magoosh was critical in helping me identify my weaknesses. Using G the different tools that Magoosh provided, I was able to focus in on my weaknesses and therefore improve my score by 10 points in verbal (based on ETS provided practice tests) and 2 points in quantity.

Magoosh was the best GRE prep resource I used. I tried Kaplan, Barron's, AND Manhattan. While all decent resources, all had their obvious flaws. Magoosh's Vocabulary app was a great help, as it it excellent at pulling up the flashcards of the words you are more likely to have forgotten. Furthermore, the Magoosh site is very well-done. I went through all over the Verbal questions, as my goal was to boost this score from my first GRE. Every question had a very helpful video, and I would try to ask myself "What would Chris do?" for every question I practiced and for the actual GRE. Magoosh was the first resource to guide my reading ability directly and to offer highly specified help on text completions. Thanks to Magoosh, my verbal score went up 7 POINTS. Thank you Chris, and thank you Magoosh for helping me to (hopefully) get into graduate school.

I think the strongest aspect of the Magoosh lessons was their ability to identify correctly which TYPES of questions the GRE favors - it made it easier to focus my studies when I knew, for example, that the test-writers love to ask about properties of 30-60-90 triangles, prime factorization, etc.

Precise score estimation, clear lessons to guide me through the techniques, and detailed explanations on every single practice question.

This website is absolutely great! All the lessons were very clear and helpful. I also got in touch a few times by sending an email and got very friendly and quick responses. I would absolutely recommend it to others, and would like to thank you for helping me wrap my mind around all the concepts and techniques! You guys do a great job!

It provided me with some insights, tricks, and ways of approaching problems that simplified them. It introduced me to ways of thinking about the problem that I would have had difficulty arriving at myself.

The volume of practice questions was amazing

Lots and lots of practice!

The video lessons and practice questions are great and well-organized with awesome tips to approach different types of problems. For the quantitative section, the questions in Magoosh are tougher than in any other material I referred. In fact, even in the actual test, I found the questions easier than Magoosh and was able to complete the section before the 35 minutes of stipulated time and check my work for any errors.

Moreover, whenever I sent a mail asking doubts, I received the response within 24 hours (even on weekends). Even if my doubts were silly enough, you guys had a lot of patience to clarify all my doubts. Also, my account was about to expire around 10 days before my test day. But you guys helped me by extending the expiry date until the test date.

My favorite part about Magoosh were the tutorial videos that accompanied each question on the practice tests. They really helped me understand what I was doing wrong way better than reading something in a book could.

I think it really helped me with the Quant section. I had not seen maths in 5 years and Magoosh explained every exercise and every trick that the exam has.

I could practice many questions and see the time. The video explanations really helped.

Magoosh helped me immensely, especially in the verbal section. The approach used to answer the RC questions was quite insightful and there was a significant improvement in my verbal score. The practice questions are certainly a level above that of the actual GRE and the hours of practice were key in me doing well. I can't thank Magoosh enough and would highly recommend it.

Content is fantastic. Math questions enable users to think outside of using formulas. Verbal section is good practice too.

the lecture is thorough and clear

Led me to the Manhattan prep books which were helpful.

Lessons on specific topics

Provided an excellent source of practice.

The vocabulary app was extremely helpful. But the individual question videos were also excellent.
