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.

yeah, i think the part of text completion and sentence equivalence is pretty good, however the long reading passage seems a little hard for me. i really appreciate the help i have receieved from magoosh

magoosh helped me boost my score in verbal

magoosh helped by focusing on clear strategies and the content that the gre tests. the lessons really helped me with time-saving strategies. the practice tool is an amazing resource, especially with the adaptive feature! i thought it simulated the test very well, which had me better prepared for when questions suddenly got harder.
before magoosh, i just kept answering practice questions from the ets practice material. this was not helpful because there was no guidance on what to study, leaving me feeling lost.
with magoosh's preparation there were no surprises and the test seemed much less daunting than before.

a combination of the large library of challenge questions and excellent and approachable video lessons helped me strengthen several areas and improve my score.

very comprehensive math review, especially since i haven't done real math in 15 years.

i found out what would likely be on the test.

the information was presented very clearly and concisely. i was able to see what information i wasn't fully understanding and was given the resources to learn it in a different way.

i found magoosh very helpful overall. specifically, the math content was excellent. my regret on test day was not using mental math enough and using the calculator too often. i was unable to finish the very last math problem on test day due to this. the problem was simple, i just ran out of time. i may have received an extra math point or two (or three) if i had finished that problem.

i enjoy the video lessons on reading comprehension.

magoosh gave me the confidence to tackle difficult math concepts with ease and understanding. it helped me slow down and analyze verbal questions.

i actually did take the gre once before and did fine on it. that was in 1988. i've had plenty of opportunity to forget everything, especially math. magoosh was a treasure of great information and sympathetic practical advice in a format that was accessible to someone trying to take classes and work full time. the sense that people like me were part of the target audience was also crucial in helping to build confidence for the test. additionally, i don't know what chris and mike are like in person (or if they even really exist ;-) but their videos were both humorous and instructive. finally, the practice questions were spot on. thanks!

concepts and useful strategies

i had only 10 days to prepare for gre. and this was my first attempt. if it weren't for magoosh, preparing in this much time wouldn't have been possible. the lectures are superb. the practice questions are great. everything was great. in fact i took one magoosh practice test 2 days before my actual gre and got exactly the same total on the actual gre.

practice, practice, practice! just being able to do as many questions as possible. the video explanations were great as well.

the review video lessons for math were well organized and incredibly helpful, they made all the difference on the quant section. fantastic customer service as well, thank you!

magoosh provided a platform for both practice tests and learning new material. there was a structure in place that i could use to study.

practice questions and video explanations were super helpful. study plans also helpful for getting into a routine.

getting over 1000 practice problems with video feedback is priceless. additionally, the video tutorials really help refresh my memory on math subjects i forgot.

in all of the ways

i was very scared of the verbal section of the gre, but the magoosh videos helped me learn the teachnique. also, the magoosh vocabulary app is pretty accurate.i didn't have time to do quant from magoosh but i am sure it would have helped a lot.

good excercises and tests to practice!

it helped me review math topics and get familiar with question styles. practice problems are the way to go and i loved the video explanations with every single question.

the videos provided in the math section were especially helpful. additionally, the study plans were helpful as well.

covered every topic, and gave structure to an otherwise haphazard method of studying.
practice problems are great!
