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 practice questions and practice tests were extremely useful. The score predictor was on point and I ended up scoring the same as my last Magoosh practice test

I really enjoyed the videos - I learn well from YT videos. Staff is prompt in explaining questions in detail and responding. I found the material more difficult than real GRE but that was good preparation.

Magoosh helped me from the start to the end. Magoosh questions align with GRE better than any other prep material out there.

I am a non-traditional student (almost 40!), and it had been nearly 20 years since I had used a lot of the required math skills on the GRE. Mike McGarry was a wonderful instructor, really teaching you the why behind the various concepts, and helping to develop your number sense, which I found hugely useful. I bumped my math score nearly 20 points from my first practice test to the actual GRE. I had an overall score of 331, which was well beyond my goal of 320, and Magoosh was a huge part of that.
