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 invaluable in showing me specific strategies and ways to solve problems that would improve my speed and performance on the GRE. I only wish I'd started it sooner! I also appreciated the variety of problems to go through.

I used Magoosh as my last resort and I could not improve as much as I did if hadn't used it. Many thanks to Magoosh and I'll exploit it and do one more GRE test.

The math videos helped me immensely. They allowed me to quickly review old concepts that I had forgotten about and I felt they were a very efficient use of my time studying. The math questions helped as well. My score was not improving but as I continued to practice I noticed that I was starting to get more questions right. Also, the custom practice that allowed me to do 20 questions in 35 minutes really helped me with my pacing. Lastly, the Magoosh GRE vocabulary flash cards helped me to learn the common GRE words.

Magoosh saved me in math- I haven't taken a math class since high school. I went from knowing nothing about Quant questions to getting a 164 thanks to the great math lessons! :)

It helped me where i needed a lot of help -math- and filled gaps where I was trying to score the 170 -verbal-. It also helped me hone in on my weaknesses and cater to my strengths. Bottom line, the program pushed me and got me the score I needed.

Though I thought that I was good at math, I found several defects in my math when I did your quetions and this helped me a lot. As for the verbal section, I must say magoosh is the best study resource I have used. I almost just use this resource only. And thank you for all the staffs in magoosh who helped me for may question emails.
