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.

Lots of study questions with detailed answer explanations. I was really focusing on math and the math study was great. The questions were challenging and really representative of what I saw on the test. I hadn't taken the GRE before, but my first study test before I joined Magoosh was 298 so I'm very pleased with my improvement.

familiarized me with the test format and what would be required on testing day. Practice problems were very helpful in preparing me for the exam. I found the math flash cards particularly useful. I'm 56 years old with a background in music, so it's been awhile since I've used the math.

The predicted score feature was NICE--it helped me feel less anxious and ended up being fairly accurate.
