how did magoosh help you?
first of all, the videos were really helpful. knowing what to expect on the test (content and format wise) and how to deal with it made it less stressfull. after i answered all questions in the reading part i still had 15 minutes left to check everything a second time. this was only possible because i knew every question type inside out, thanks to your explanations. in addition the practice material is great and involves some interesting topics. this made it easier for me to motivate myself to learn in the evening (i work fulltime). |
