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.

Made the process of studying a lot more organised.

The questions on Magoosh were just like the questions on the test. AWA outlining strategy was very beneficial for me as well.

I really enjoyed the videos and being able to be walked through each question.

refreshed all my math skills, got me ready and I killed it.

Magoosh stuff was comprehensive.I didn't even purchase the original guide or give even a fleeting glance to any other material.

Magoosh lessons and blog told me clearly what to study, how to study, and what is required to do well in the test.

Great practice problems and explanations, also it seemed like the difficulty level was more geared to your level so I liked that I could mainly focus on the hard math problems

Magoosh helped me diagnose individual issues and deficiencies I had and assisted me with specific video lessons and practice questions to help me learn or to hone my skills. Their mobile app proved incredibly convenient with the ability to learn and review vocabulary on my daily commute, or whenever I was away from a computer.

Magoosh was extremely helpful in managing my study time, with their study plan that mapped out how I should be preparing for the exam in the time that I had before my test date. The videos taught me useful strategies for tackling each question type that helped me do well.

It gave me the opportunity to get face to face with real test problems and practice to improve my weak points.

The practice questions and practice test on Magoosh.com were a big help in prepping me for the GRE. The video lessons for math were invaluable in helping me review. But my favorite thing was the Vocabulary Builder app I could use on my Android phone. It made it easy to review throughout the day. I liked how it kept track of the words I didn't know and repeated them several times until I got them down.

Well-rounded teaching experience that was very beneficial in helping me re-learn math & verbal techniques. Loved the combo of videos and text explanations. The lessons were very clear and concise!

The pool of practice questions, and explanations were extremely helpful. As well as the vocab flashcards - I was pretty much using them whenever I had spare time while traveling. I also appreciate the helpdesk for answering my queries.

The videos were very helpful -- even those which I thought I already knew. Mike and Chris really know what they're doing. The flashcard app was key to doing well on the verbal section.

I followed the one-month study plan and found it really efficient to prepare for the test in such a short time. The Verbal video lessons and the vocabulary flashcards were specially helpful to me because English is not my first language. And I really appreciated the number sense tips from the Math video lessons.

Educating me on how the test would be structured, including what the questions would look like and what the test makers wanted in their answers.

The math videos were extremely helpful as it had been many years since I had done this kind of math.

The timed practice tests were a great way to prepare for the actual test.

Strategies to use on the essay section were very helpful.

The app was great because it allowed me to study anytime, anywhere--perfect for a neurotic student like myself. (-:

I wouldn't have been able to get this score without Magoosh. Excellent video instruction and insight on how to succeed in the GRE.

Good sets of practice problems, instructional videos were very good to fill gaps in my knowledge.

Build up my vocabulary through a large number of verbal questions.

Magoosh provided lots of practice questions and the answers explored different approaches to solving problems. The videos made it possible to review all the material in-depth in a short period of time.

Magoosh provided questions of high quality without wasting time on simple ones. Magoosh's math lesson videos are excellent. It can guide students at various levels to think about problems along multiple orientations.

I'm not great at self-studying, so I knew from the start that I needed some sort of structured study method. But, I wasn't thrilled about the idea of taking/paying for a full set of classes which I did years ago to prepare for the SAT. When a friend recommended Magoosh, I checked it out. There was a 4-week, daily study plan which was perfect for me. I just followed the plan, studied intensively for a few hours each day, and I felt super confident going into the test. It was my first time taking it, and I am so happy with my score. Before I started the study plan four weeks ago, I knew absolutely nothing about the GRE, and now I feel like a GRE-pro.

Best parts: lots of practice problems, video explanations for practice problem answers, great lesson videos, good balance between the Official Guide and the online lessons, vocab app, excellent organization all-around, helpful tips in lesson videos (i.e. "this will only show up in advanced sections," or "the GRE loves these types of questions," or "this is tricky for most students," etc.)

Great summary of all the relevant material, allowed me to get a good score with just one week of studying. Also very clear explanation videos, and tons of practice questions that resemble the level at the GRE.

All the problems are GRE like/quality. That helped a lot
