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 provided me online access so I was able to study for GRE anywhere. I had very less time to prepare for GRE - only a month and I had a lot of other commitments during this period like work. Magoosh allowed me to be very flexible.
The videos were very informative and the constant practice quizzes after each module helped cement concepts even more for me. The predictive score was also very accurate. I got a score right in that range.

The material was an excellent representation of the actual test questions. Moreover, the ability to do timed practice sets really helped me nail the rhythm and pacing needed to perform well.

Magoosh was a huge help in everything from vocabulary to study plans, from practice tests to lesson videos. It is probably the least commercial of all the GRE test preparation programmes. Amazing stuff guys. Keep the good work going!

The lessons were insightful and clear. The 1.5x speed saves me a lot of invaluable time. The practice tests were great and well-designed. The vocab flashcard app/website was very helpful.

Magoosh verbal videos were really helpful in understanding nuances of verbal section and understanding different approaches. Though I missed a couple points on verbal due to test anxiety and pacing issue but a solid 5 point increase is nice to have.

I would strongly recommend attempting very hard level math questions if someone is targeting 167+ quant score.

Its the most awesome product for Verbal Section. I am not saying its not good for Quantitative section , I always knew I would score well in the quant but was skeptical on the verbal section.
P.S. your 1000 words are the best

There are lots of practice questions, which helped me to develop skills and techniques (even though you have all the videos teaching them, actually doing and practicing is more important, right?).
And all the video explainations are great! Most of the questions and answers I didn't understand at first were clear after watching the video.

The question there matches with and is a little more difficult than the real test.So when I really take the test I feel very familiar with these questions.And the most amazing thing is it's unique time recording and it really help me to form a fast-doing habit.

It helped by providing a lot of resources during my prep. Also blogs of magoosh are my favourite. They helped me with a lot of information regarding trustworthy resources. Also the practice questions are well prepared and organised, they are on the tougher end of gre which is great to begin with.

The math videos helped a lot, especially the geometry topics, as it has been a long time since I've done any geometry related problems. There were also tons of math problems which helped me get back up to speed in terms of pacing. Additionally, while I generally read a lot of articles from the sources like NY Times, I am not a fast reader, which made reading comprehension problematic for me. The reading comprehension practices helped a lot in my pacing problems.
