GMAT Prep Now Reviews?

by amnesiac » Mon Apr 08, 2013 9:20 pm
Hi All,

Has anyone used GMAT Prep Now? I have searched for reviews, but did not find any to be useful.

Viewed a few of the videos, and they were pretty good.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

I just purchased the entire video's module. I hope it will be a worthwhile investment.

Here are some observations about the videos.

1.> Content is really well laid out and the videos are extremely easy to follow.
2.> I can watch the videos on my TV, while I am lying on the couch. Though I wont recommend this form of absorption, its working well for me. Makes it more like watching TV than studying :)
3.> The techniques mentioned are really effective and definitely help in speeding up time to solution.
4.> I am using these videos in conjunction with the 60-day guide by Brent.
5.> Can watch video's at work, when I find time. More discreet than having volumes of MGMAT prep lying on the desk.

To summarize, content and mobility are the main reason I went with GMATprepnow. I would definitely recommend you to get it if you are on a fence about it.

Regards
Rahul

GMAT Prep Now is an excellent resource. I used it to build my basics very strong. The videos are just awesome and I was able to increase my score by 50 points!

Brent is the guy after the videos. He has done a fantastic job and is really helpful if you are stuck somewhere.

Good Luck

Does it make you do all the questions from the OG or not? I am trying to decide whether to take it or not.

Hi Shoaib, 

I believe your question is similar to what you posted here: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/2010/03/ ... ment-46940

In the process of completing the 60-Day Study Guide (using either the GMAT Prep Now videos or the MGMAT booklets), you will answer all of the questions in the Official Guide (13th edition). Having said that, there are still plenty of other resources you can use for additional practice questions. For example, there are the quant-only and verbal only guides, and there are thousands of additional practice questions on the Beat the GMAT forums to answer.

Cheers,
Brent
