Little bit about me Little bit about me: Final year university student, American but studying overseas. Terribly rusty math AND English skills after so many years out of high school; as an Accounting/Finance major, you don't really practise the things which get tested on the GMAT. Hell, I'd even forgotten things like basic geometry, or how best to tackle Venn diagrams. So... I decided that I needed a little help. Preparation: I'd considered other GMAT prep options, but found them unsuitable, whether due to poor(er) reviews, high cost, or simple lack of availability of information. After examining a few different GMAT prep program options, I eventually settled on GMAT Pill. Kaplan appears to be slightly poorer reviewed, and Manhattan's more expensive, so GMAT Pill it was. It's been years since I actually had to use much of the math that the GMAT tests, or think about the intricacies of English, my practice test scores were at about 700 before I tried out this course. What I found was that the GMAT Pill core frameworks ran through concepts in a manner that was simple enough to grasp, and specifically targeted at the types of questions that I eventually found myself facing on the actual GMAT. The practice questions were also structured very similarly to the real deal, which obviously helped prepare me for the exam. Everything being available online and in video format was also a plus. The always-available online video format made it easy to study whenever and wherever I wanted to, provided I had my phone or tablet with me. At home, on the subway, or even sitting by the pool. Don't underestimate the importance of a convenient studying resource that doesn't weigh several pounds; it'll make it much easier to keep studying consistently and allow you to take quick "study breaks" in between bouts of whatever it is you usually do. I first started on the material about three to four weeks before my GMAT, and studied fairly inconsistently over the next few weeks. On the whole, I believe I put in about 10-20 hours of time fully concentrating on the material, and possibly another 10-20 or so leaving the videos running while I did other things that weren't overly taxing on my mental resources - television, video games, laundry, and such. It might not seem like a whole lot of time, but that's part of my point entirely; the program ran through things in such a simple way that it wasn't difficult to understand the concepts. So again... pretty impressed. It seems to me that the GMAT really is all about studying, test-taking techniques and preparation. I'm honestly just very impressed that it helped me score so well, as I wasn't expecting any more than about 740 as a hard upper limit. If any of this helps any of you guys out, it'd be fantastic. The GMAT Pill proved very effective for me, and I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking to do well on the GMAT.

Terrible experience Terrible experience. Their website is extremely difficult to navigate and full of clutter. There are constant pop ups and annoying quirks on their site. I used their program for about 10 days before I had to stop. The customer service is atrocious. The practice problems (that he actually has the full problem for) have typos and are terribly worded. The actual Official Guide problems he uses don't even have the full problem. Instead, they tell you to find the rest of the problem in the 2013 Official Guide. I'm sorry but if I'm spending $169.00 on this (way more than Magoosh which is 10x better) you shouldn't be too lazy to write the full problem so that I have to buy ANOTHER version of the Official Guide that's fairly outdated. To make matters far worse, it is very difficult to cancel your subscription. They make it extremely hard to figure out how to do this and my webpage kept having an error signal when I tried to find the button in settings. Then, I emailed support and they literally said this.. "Go to your account settings to cancel." REALLY? You think I didn't know this? No further explanation? The guy who does the videos thinks overcomplicating problems makes it easier. He goes so fast through each practice problem. His methods scream, "I'm bragging about how good I am at math." He has "it's that simple!" attitude, when it's really not. His voice is also annoying. I wish I didn't waste almost $200.00 on this. And to think that they're supposedly planning on charging people $700.00+. They claim these offers will go away fast but it's just a ploy to lure you in. They just care about getting money. Go with Magoosh. Mike is AWESOME, enthusiastic about math, and really wants you to learn. This Zeke is just a guy who scored high on his GMAT so he thinks he's a pro.

Having planned to give my GMAT few … Having planned to give my GMAT few years ago I never had the time to prepare for the same, due to the busy work-life I never seem to have a proper time for a Offline classroom session. Then one day I heard reviews about GMAT Pill through my friend and Instantly I bought their online subscription for one month complete package(Quant+Verbal) which enhance my skill and develop my ability to solve gmat questions with time restrictions.I have gained a lot and hope to crack with stellar score.Highly suggest this course for anyone who is already good with math and looking for a quick revision, or anyone who\'s starting from scratch.

Thanks GMATPill. Improved my score to 710! Thanks to Zeke's unique approach, I managed to improve my score from 650 to 710! As a non-native English speaker I used to be completely clueless in sentence correction. I also appreciate Zeke's simplistic approach to tackle the quants section. Now I can be more confident in my application. Thanks GMAT pill. I wouldn't be able to achieve this otherwise.
