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.

Magoosh REALLY helps for my verbal. The lessons help me to learn how to THINK and how to deal with GRE questions. That's what a beginner needs to get started.

The practice questions are harder than real test. So don't lose confidence when not performing well in practice mode. Moreover the word flashcard(especially the app for mobile) function is also great : I'm not a native speaker, and I found it difficult to distinguish similar words. Flashcards have interpretations in English(only for GRE) as well as example sentences. Convenient and awesome.

Well, I actually underestimate math part because I focus on verbal so much... I will retake the exam to get a better score in Q. Hopefully a better V as well!

In my experience, Magoosh has been, by far, the most effective, and affordable test prep company for teaching why incorrect answers are incorrect. Watching the video explanations after each question (regardless if correct/incorrect) with the linked "relevant lessons" provide ample opportunities for learning new, effective ways to problem solve.

The math lectures are inspiring; there is always something to gain from watching each of the videos. Also, the free vocabulary flashcard app turns the dead time from my commute into an opportunity to review.

Math began as my weakest point, and I was embarrassed with all the knowledge I lost between high school and the end of college. I started out with math scores wavering around 156-159, and sadly hit a plateau in my practice test performance (even until the day before the test!). The lessons went far beyond anything I learned in high school, and were, in my opinion, profound. Without the general knowledge and number principles stressed in the math lessons, I wouldn't have been able to achieve my real score of 170 (I stared at the screen for about five minutes, in disbelief).

I found the Magoosh questions tailored to hammering down the fundamental principles instead of promoting cheap tricks, which made their questions seem more challenging than those I encountered on the real GRE. The lessons are genuinely interesting, and the videos instill a deep appreciation for concepts and their derivations.

The personalities of the lecturers gave me the impression that Magoosh's primary goal is to help the student, and I couldn't appreciate this any more.

Magoosh helped familiarize me with the GRE test environment. The instructional videos were very helpful. Furthermore, the video explanations to each question helped me understand where I made mistakes or how I could better tackle similar problems.

The videos were very well done. All the concepts were explained really well. And the practice questions were very very thorough.

Magoosh is great and helped me a lot to improve verbal part. The vocabulary flashcard is awesome and very useful. Also, it provides a very good collection of questions in both verbal and math section. Though I did not do good in verbal section, I think I have improved my English a lot from the level I had started.

Math tutorials were helpful in the geometry rules which I had forgotten since high school. Vocabulary flash cards were also helpful.

The questions were key in helping me with the hard and very hard questions.

Plan my schedule

Wonderful job with the lessons to thoroughly describe what to expect on the GRE. I felt confident and prepared to take on the test. If anything, I found the prep to be more difficult than the actual GRE!

I loved the videos explaining problems in real time

I really appreciated the math videos and the explanations after every question. I was feeling pretty confident on verbal, but really needed the math help.

It helped me in building my basics and learning from my mistakes..Magoosh helped me adapting to the actual test conditions as closely as possible..Other mock tests does not include the experimental section and thus ends in 4 hrs.. Thanks to you guys that I developed the ability to sit for 4.5 hours at a stretch..

It helps a lot in improving my skills in Verbal!

Very comprehensive, guided math review and lots of practice problems. Results from practice tests are predictive of real test scores.

very good practice questions. accurate estimate of actual GRE score. Helped me a lot with verbal section. Questions are answered fast and good guidance given. Vocab wednesdays are very helpful as it helps remember vocabulary better.

I love the verbal part since it points out some analyze technique that help me break the questions down. Also, the AWA video quickly help me work out the outline of the whole response.

Magoosh helped build a strong foundation in terms of concept , thus enabling me to tackle all kinds of questions without hesitation.

Magoosh helps by preparing you for the most difficult questions by providing with GRE specific strategies and examples. The division of questions section-wise and difficulty wise pretty awesome. Vocabulary application covers the most probable GRE words. SE and TC explaination and the number of questiions on offer is exhaustive. Thanks Magoosh!! I would highy suggest all GRE test takers to use it and see amazing improvements in their scores.

Loved all the practice questions available

It helped me improve my math skills

Magoosh's study plan is the most systematic way anyone can study for GRE. The videos are really good. The Magoosh vocab builder app is all you need to get a good score on the verbal section. The mock tests are at a higher difficulty level than most of the tests available online and hence closest to the actual test.

It was awesome to have so many practice problems, especially ones at higher difficulty levels. That was essential for making me feel prepared. I also liked the built-in timer options. Overall, practicing with Magoosh came as close to the actual experience as possible, except with a better UI.
Videos are excellent--both lessons and problem explanations. Flashcards too.
Thanks for developing such a great product!

Helps me to get used to GRE type questions.

Videos and practice questions are really great!
