Logical Review

This prep course is quite a thing. The different ways to tackle a problem are given due diligence here with the logical, alternative, and precise techniques. It drills on what the GRE actually tests, which is cognitive flexibility and the ability to answer questions quickly. Great course. And Free subscription to The Economist!

The Economist Gmat Tutor, a big kudos to you!

I am not sure if I can write here about the Economist Gmat Tutor as I see most of the reviews have not been regarding this.
Anyway, I have tried some different platforms so far. This time I am truly excited to learn math through the EGT. I found the GMAT prep kind of boring and time consuming and honestly I have had a little progress within the first months, but once I started the EGT I can say it has been a miracle! The prep is not boring and tiresome anymore and I put all my spare time on it! Studying math has always been a challenge for me, however, with EGT it’s fun and amusing. I can feel my progress and I am more confident now. They are always reachable and attentive to assist the students and I have been amazed by the AI techniques which has been used here to address all of the issues and weaknesses!
This is the only way I can appreciate the EGT and all of it’s amazing support team behind the scenes!
A huge shout out to you, the greatest tutors ever 🙌🏼🙏🏼

It's different, in a good way.

I originally wrote a review for this and compared it to Magoosh. I think that was a mistake on my part. Here is what I should've written:

This is truly an innovative platform and takes on studying in a different manner. It focuses around mental flexibility rather than just knowing one way to solve a problem. This has really helped me to become a better problem solver. Not to mention, they truly care about the platform and reached out to me when I had an issue to see how they could better assist. I truly appreciate the humanity that they offered and I can't wait to use the platform in an even more efficient manner.

The PAL method works

The PAL method was completely different than what I was used to but it works. Substitute values for variables, use logic when needed and be precise when time allows. It got me a 168 on the Quant and 164 on the Verbal. Plus it felt like a game trying to get a high score so it was engaging

314 to 319 with ExamPal GRE

ExamPAL raised my overall GRE score from 314 to 319 in a little over 3 months. After studying with another leading provider, I found the ExamPal GRE course better suited to my needs, helping me learn how to take the GRE rather than simply learning the concepts.
Furthermore the team are incredibly responsive, and took a lot of time answering my questions ensuring that I truly understood why I got questions incorrect, and not simply telling me the answer.
Additionally because the course focuses on using the ETS practice exams, I found I was much better prepared for the real test, and my practice exams reflected what I was able to achieve.

680 GMAT score on my first try!

ExamPAL has been instrumental in my GMAT preparation. The lessons are very clear and I love how the course really focuses on teaching cognitive flexibility (which is what GMAT actually tests) and real test strategies vs simply teaching you the concepts. And should the online resources not be enough for you, their staff is always available to answer your specific questions.
Their price point is also unbeatable given all they offer in the package, thus making all other expensive GMAT courses simply not worth it.

not my favorite, but the team is very accommodating

While I am not totally happy with the platform. There is no aggregate data on your progress and it is very hard to follow the difficulty level of the questions answered and how it compares to the actual test.
However, ExamPal has been exceedingly accommodating to my concerns. I will update this rating as I progress through the program.

Reply from examPAL

Hey Benjamin,

We've already discussed these issues in private, and I would like to share some of the information from our correspondence with potential future readers. Specifically, here is a description of how the system works and where you can find information on your progress:

In order to help you improve, it is not enough to merely give you a 'percentage correct answer' metric or some other summary statistic - we need to help you identify the reasons that you made a mistake in the first place, and provide you with additional practice or alternative approaches that will best help you to overcome your weaknesses.

To do this, we combine (i) your data, such as the time it takes you to answer questions and your per-section performance, (ii) your per-question feedback, which provides insight into your internal thought process, and (iii) aggregate statistics from all students. The aggregate data allows us to build a profile for each question, and we can then match each student with the question and approach that are most likely to help them.

The PAL score that you see after you answer a question reflects one part of this data: it tells you whether the fastest approach according to the aggregate data was Precise, Alternative, or Logical, and tells you where the question ranks relatively to other questions. Specifically, questions are divided into 7 septiles according to the performance of over 100,000 recent students. A "7" means that the question is ranked in the hardest 14 percent of questions, which usually makes it a sample of the hardest questions in the real test. So for example, a "P4" would indicate the Precise approach was fastest and that the overall difficulty was a 4 out of 7. The score you see at the end of the section indicates the hardest question you were able to solve correctly.

So, the aggregate data you seek is found in the platform in 2 locations: one is visible directly to you as the PAL score in a section and question. The other is behind the scenes but can easily be accessed by asking our tutors, who are available 24/7 via chat, to pull it out for you. We also provide a detailed expert assessment which summarizes all of this aggregate data and provides specific action items and example questions to help guide you in the right direction.

Best of luck in your GRE journey!

Can someone give this company a medal

Can someone give this company a medal? I started studying 5 days ago and I felt so overwhelmed by all of the options out there. I tried top-rated programs and they were okay-ish. I was stuck on the same section for days....wracking my brain to understand a complex equation. I knew I needed a better understanding of some core concepts, but I was having go the extra mile to find that concept knowledge itself. I would log into one test platform and then switch over to another. Then, as I was looking on the GMAT Club for additional information, I saw an article on this program. The concept of tailoring to my individual learning style immediately spoke to me. I’m two steps in, and honestly for the first time in my life, I am excited to do math. I needed a program that would tailor to my needs. Exam PAL did just that. It started with the very basic of concepts and then tested me with a few questions after each concept. Their format allowed me to retain as I learned. Seriously, can you take over the world of teaching and show everyone else how to do it?

Really efficient way to prep for GMAT

I have used both Manhattan Prep and MyExamPaL, from my experience, I highly prefer ExamPal because

1) It is more efficient. The program is pre-structured and pre-scheduled, so I do not need to worry about making my schedule. Just follow the pace makes the preparation smooth.

2) ExamPaL is comprehensive and personalized. The video and provided documents themselves covered all the content needed for GMAT, no need to read other books. Then you can see your strengths and weakness and adjust the way you tackle the problem based on the awareness of your performance.

I wish that I had used ExamPal from the beginning. I believe that it will save me a lot of time that way.

examPal is the best hands down

examPal is a fantastic product that really helped me study for the gmat exam! The website is very user friendly and beautifully designed, and the content covered everything I needed to know for the exam. Furthermore, the website analyzes the way you think and recommends the best approach that matches your natural thinking process. This algorithm works splendidly and really helped me to solve the questions in the most efficient manner. Finally, the tutors responded quickly and really helped explain the questions that I struggled to understand. I highly recommend this product as it is the best preparation for your exam!!

excellent course

Gmat is a test that deals with logic and basic and Exampal actually teaches you basic and logic to tackle the problem.
The staff are really friendly and supportive, they understand your problem and go out of the way to help you,I really want to thank Simon for his unconditional support and help.
Exampal teaches you the right methodology to tackle each problem with different kind of approach.
I would highly recommend the course to all the people aiming for 700+ score.
Good luck to all!

I just finished the program for…

I just finished the program from exampPal. I had a technical difficulty that took up a lot of time, and I did not like the customer service response time. The employee made me feel as if it were my fault by stating that it was my computer that was the issue. On top of all this negativity, I kept getting personal messages about my original TrustPilot review of two stars. It felt like harassment. To add to that, they responded to that review that I gave them a five-star review in my app. ( that was done before my issues started with them). Next, I used their services for the writing assessment portion one time and never received an email. I emailed them about the issue. I will say that the response time for that was tremendously better than the technical difficulty; turn around two days. However, I got an email stating that it had been sent to me, and I was asked to verify my email. Yet again, they tried to push the blame onto me, a paying customer.

Despite all of the unprofessionalism the staff has portrayed, the program did increase my GMAT score. (on the practice tests). I still have unused credits that I will try to use up. I recommend this program to self-motivated individuals. I do not have the desired score I want out of this program, but my score did increase. I had to push back my test date.

On a final note, I also recommend that if you can afford to pay for better services, Kaplan University is full of a professional staff team. Moreover, onhand tech support for minor issues that may arise. (they don't blame you).

The answer to all your worries - examPAL.

So far I have used many sources to prepare for the GMAT. I started my studying this summer in June and for three months I used the top rated books. I was hoping to learn the basics to the complex hard concepts along with strategies and ultimately master the GMAT. My score goal is 700... and I realized I won’t reach that goal using those books. I really tired to wrap my head around the way the books taught but, it wasn’t for me. I needed the kind of training that examPAL is giving me. I enjoy studying now (like I always do but with the boxes I did not) and I am so excited to master the GMAT! When I watch the lessons and introduction modules I feel like interested and engaged. I don’t feel like this is going to he impossible for me. I know it’s more than possible for me to get a high score! Thanks you examPAL!

Exampal, an affordable, fun and effective way to prepare for GMAT!

The tailored course with systematic basics reviews and strategies, AI questions from diagnostic to optimization constitute altogether an efficient and fun tool. The PAL – Precise, Alternative, Logical – structure is also very handy and adapted to both verbal and quantitative sections. Overall, after roughly 130h of preparation, I ended-up with a 640 GMAT score (+120 vs. starting point) which I believe could have been easily improved with one more week of study.
