Sherpa Prep Reviews 344

Nafeez and his team go far out of their way to help you in any way they can. I was very pleasantly surprised at how personable the team was. Their guidance does not end at the conclusion of your last class. They extend help for as long as you wish to stay in touch which I thought was awesome! I highly recommend this program to anyone!

I really enjoyed the class (as much as someone can "enjoy" GMAT prep)! I found each session very helpful to review the concepts at a higher level and I appreciated that we also had time to review areas that each student found more difficult. Without the class, studying for the GMAT would have been very overwhelming and much less productive. I also found the packets to be incredibly comprehensive and helpful. I'm grateful I heard about Sherpa Prep and decided to enroll and would highly recommend it to others!

I was floundering in my GRE preparation. I had not taken a formal class, had pursued cheaper options, and frankly was seeing no results. In just five tutoring sessions with Jay, my score improved dramatically and I ended up being admitted to a top 10 business school. I cannot speak highly enough about Sherpa, and every individual that I know who has worked with this company has gotten where they needed to be on their standardized tests.

I used Sherpa Prep to help me navigate the GMAT and MBA Admissions. First and foremost, Sherpa puts the students' best interest as a top priority and it is noticeable in everything they do - mentors' experience, caring and listening, unmatched pricing, etc. Erin, my GMAT teacher, demonstrated high proficiency in every topic and explained things in a fun and easy to understand storytelling way that kept all classmates engaged. He always made sure to answer all our questions and was available for us even outside of class hours. Nafeez, my MBA Admissions consultant, guided me through every step of the way and gave me incredible feedback that dramatically changed the way I was able to think about and present myself. I eventually got into one of the top business schools on my list and could not be happier.

Sherpa Prep helped me navigate my MBA Admissions experience beginning with a GMAT prep course and ending with me getting accepted to one of my top choice schools. I'm not sure I could have done it without their guidance. They provide a lot of personalized attention from highly qualified individuals and you can tell they are all passionate about what they do. I have trouble believing that there is a better test prep company in the country!

The Sherpa Prep team came recommended to me, and I have since recommended this team to anyone I know looking for test prep/application help. I have done Kaplan course prep before, and the comparison is not even close. The course is well worth the cost and the instructors are attentive to the individual needs of students. HIGHLY Recommend!

As someone who attempted to self-study in the past, taking this course made me realize how inadequate that strategy was. The tips and tricks taught were invaluable and the classes, though long, were engaging and productive. I would recommend this course to anyone that is committed to earning their best GMAT score possible and changing their life.

I completed Veritas Prep for GMAT in the past and there is no comparison! Don’t waste your time on other prep programs. Sherpa Prep is the best on the market. The instructors are real people who understand how to teach at every level of learning and ability. Their system works and they will not give up on you!

Sherpa Prep was the best decision I could have made in my MBA process. The company offers incredibly refined and useful test taking content and strategies to implement. Their wealth of knowledge gained from helping thousands of students matriculate to the business schools of their dream is evident every single day. All of the instructors go above and beyond to make sure you feel well taken care of and dedicate their efforts to see you succeed in the end. Nafeez is an incredible teacher- his experience and knowledge surpassed all my expectations and he is so generous with his time to make me feel supported and empowered throughout this process. I cannot be more thankful for going with Sherpa Prep vs a big company for all things MBA related.

I had such a great experience using Sherpa when studying for the GRE. While I studied on my own prior to taking the course, I was score ~10 below my target in both Quant and Verbal. The course itself is thoughtfully structured and the learning materials (books, extra practice problems) are great and easy to use.
I took the prep course twice. The option to repeat the cost at no charge was incredible. When I did the course the first time, I did not understand how much I would need to dedicate to successfully improve my score, so it was a great primer to the process. Before COVID-19, I found the Sunday Office Hours really helpful and a good way to get questions answered and learn from other students as well.
Erin was a truly incredible instructor, where I primarily worked with him in 1-1 tutoring (all virtual because of COVID-19). He was great at providing test-taking strategies that were targeted at addressing my specific weaknesses. He was able to help me review exam reports to understand where to focus my limited time on improving my score.
I scored a 162V/159Q and was accepted into my dream MBA program and could not have done it without Sherpa or Erin!

If school was simple,as how Sherpa Prep constructed their courses, I was going to be a Doctor by now... I thought me and books don't get along, but after trying with Sherpa Prep. And passed my course with distinctions. I realised, bad teachers are the problem, I'm super intelligent

Great course that gave me the structure I needed when studying for the GMAT. Nafeez is awesome and the course really focuses on how to "beat the test". I appreciate that Sherpa resources are available even after the course ends (such a plus)!

Nafeez’s instruction was well above and beyond any expectation I had.

Sherpa Prep is fantastic. I had previously attempted to take the GMAT as a self studier and looking back, I was so unprepared. Sherpa Prep has a comprehensive curriculum and study guides that tell you exactly what you need to do to be successful on the GMAT. Nafeez was my teacher, and he is such an expert and makes learning fun. I highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a high GMAT score.

Sherpa Prep is amazing. I was on a tight timeline to take the GMAT and apply for business schools' Round 2 deadlines - I was only able to attend 6 of the scheduled 10 classes prior to taking the test. My instructor (Nafeez) gave me plenty of personal attention and feedback to reach my score goal on the expedited timeline. As a result, I was able to spend 100% of my time preparing for the test and 0% figuring out what to study. I got a great score, which would not have been possible otherwise. I could not suggest Sherpa Prep enough for anyone taking the GMAT. In addition, Nafeez is an awesome guy and instructor. Thank you Nafeez and Sherpa Prep!

I used SherpaPrep to help me prepare for my GRE exam. The course itself does a great job in providing you with GRE-specific test-taking tools/strategies and it also provides a breakdown of key concepts and tricks that help improve your ability to tackle the questions. Furthermore, the instructors also do a good job in helping you identify areas for improvement and they help provide feedback regarding study habits and the overall preparation schedule.

I was most focused on the quant portion of the exam. Prior to enrolling in the prep course, I had not studied at all but I had taken an old practice exam from the Princeton Review and scored a 154. After completing the course and working with Jay for a little while, I scored a 165 in Verbal/Quant with a 6 on the essay (my highest score).

Nasheed was a great instructor and gave a lot of good tips for taking the exam; she did very well to get us through the course content and provide additional support in exam preparation. I also had the opportunity to work with Jay after the course ended. He was extremely helpful and devoted a lot of time to supporting me and making sure I had the tools necessary to succeed. One of the key areas of support was Jay's ability to help identify barriers to my progress on the exam. Once I was able to work on those barriers (time management and careless errors), my score improved.

While I did take the exam a few times and ultimately purchased a few external resources just for practice/repetition (at the advice of the coaches), the support that the SherpaPrep instructors were able to provide was definitely worthwhile. It was a huge advantage to have such experienced coaches supporting you throughout the process and really investing their time in your success.

I would recommend SherpaPrep to anyone who is looking for more support in their preparation.

I have nothing but good things to say about everyone @ Sherpa.

I don't even understand how companies such as Kaplan, ManhattanGMAT, and etc. are in business with Sherpa existing in the GMAT test prep space.

I've taken GMAT classes from many big-name test prep companies... and there is no comparison to the value Sherpa provides.

Tactics and shortcuts are not enough!

If you want to ace the GMAT, you need to understand how the test makers think. And Sherpa is the only company I've seen so far that educates you to that level.

This class was invaluable and necessary for me to see any kind of progress and success on this test. The instructors are patient, extremely knowledgable and thoroughly invested in student development. I’m so grateful that a friend referred me for this experience. I would have totally bailed on the GMAT if not for Nafeez and Sherpa Prep. Thank you!

Winter GRE class with Erin was great!
Prior to taking the Sherpa class, I took a self-directed online GRE course and was unsuccessful. Using Sherpa, I was able to pull my score up by over 5 points in both the quant and verbal sections in less than 2 months. I highly recommend taking this course.

I worked with Erin for a few weeks, he was essential with helping calm my nerves and showing me smart tips and tricks to understanding the GRE. Would highly recommend!
