Beat The GMAT

Knewton CEO Jose Ferreira has repeatedly earned perfect scores over the past two decades on the GMAT and every other major standardized test.

Jose founded Knewton to help test-takers optimize their scores by combining emergent web technologies with his in-depth knowledge of how the GMAT was actually designed. Prior to founding Knewton, Jose served as an executive at Kaplan, where he led a company-wide re-engineering effort that designed its courses. He became known as “The Antichrist” inside Educational Testing Service (ETS) for his code-breaking methods. Jose is the only person ever to have developed pattern recognition strategies so effective that a major test-maker was forced to remove an entire question type.

Beyond test prep, Jose has also been a derivatives trader at Goldman Sachs and a Partner at New Atlantic Ventures (formerly Draper Atlantic), investing in new media and SaaS companies.

Jose graduated from Carleton College with a B.A. in Philosophy, and received his MBA from Harvard Business School.
