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.

The videos were really helpful in covering all aspects of the syllabus.
The practice questions were slightly harder than the actual gre which prepares you very well for the actual test.
The best part of the course is the very prompt response to any queries that you may have. You can almost be certain that you will receive a reply with a day.

M helped me stay on track. In fact, without M, given all of books and on-site offerings - which are moderately helpful, at best, in my opinion - I am not sure what I would have done. Certainly o rain a far lower score. Thank you Magoosh!

Magoosh is awesome. I only had a short amount of time to study for the GRE and needed to do well. I cam across Magoosh thanks to their high quality free content and am so glad I signed up for the full package. The videos are excellent (honestly, especially when watched at 1.5X) and there are a ton of good practice questions. I love the projected score and the notices I got when I was watching too many videos and not solving enough questions :)

Plus, they give really detailed responses to every question - whether general or specifically about a question or concept. All in all 10/10.

And Mike - we've never met but I love you!

Magoosh helped to plan and organise my studies. The video explainations helped me especially as it allowed me to identify my mistakes.

Magoosh did a fantastic job about creating a tailored program perfect for my study pace and style. I followed the three-month math intensive course, and the results speak for themselves. My math score increased by 5 points, and my verbal by 10. What I loved about the plan was that it kept me accountable and created a very doable, consistent study regimen. There was no memorization, no blind following of directions. Every topic was carefully explained and I was always provided the means to deepen my understanding. Plus, when I identified a weakness, I was able to customize the format of my study plan to make sure I focussed more diligently in that area. I felt incredibly prepared for the GRE, and I have Magoosh to thank for that.

The question bank was extremely helpful for a self-structured study routine. It really helped to be able to select specific question types based on what I needed to practice. The explanations are also quite helpful.

The abundance of practice questions were instrumental in my practice for the Verbal and Quant sections. Moreover, the difficulty of the questions is perfect and the flashcards were important to improve my vocabulary.

Put in one word, everything :) Though I am disappointed in my Verbal score,( and kinda my math score..It was really simple) I couldn't have done half as nearly as good with your team :) To be honest, I didn't refer to mostly all the videos as I have a very VERY weird way of studying - Solve only questions...questions, questions, questions :) Challenges are what impresses me , and your questions sure did :) Since I am quite okay with maths from before only, so I focused on Verbal ( tried to, but GRE makes you believe that even if you do know English, you don't really KNOW it.....every question is like...."Seriously, where do these words come from?, give me a break!" xD But the bottomline, credit to your team and do continue your awesome work :') :')

It really helped me understand the fundamental aspects that the test was trying to test me on. My only regret is that I only prepared for 3 weeks with Magoosh. I am confident that Magoosh will help me for thelast step of the journey in achieving my target score.

I benefitted from the lessons and the practice questions, but the overall study plan have the best direction. I used all of flash card apps for both math and verbal as well as the recommended resources, Manhattan Prep book/tests and the Official GRE book. I took a total of 7 practice tests. I was disappointed in the math results, but I just needed more time to move from exposure to second nature level. I found the verbal strategies to be helpful as well.

I think it helped most with my math. I hadn't taken a math class in 15 or more years so the math refresher was very helpful. Also, more generally, the practice questions were extremely useful for getting me comfortable with the style of questions for both Math and verbal.
