So Paul, a Goldman Sachs analyst and student who recently logged into the GMATPill.com messaged me offering to help others learn about the GMAT Pill based on his relatively positive experience with the videos in the first few days. Prior to coming to GMAT Pill, he enrolled in the ManhattanGMAT program and viewed Kaplan and Princeton Review resources. Ultimately, he finds the most value in the GMAT Pill's thought-process driven approach.
GMATPill: Hello everybody! Guide we've Paul with us here at the GMATPill.com. Paul, Welcome!
Paul: Hey, Zeke! Thanks for having me on.
GMATPill: Paul, you've actually been a member of gmatpill.com for just some days ago, isn't that right?
Paul:Yea. I actually signed up a couple days ago so I've been a member for about 5 days.
So I am class of 06, University of Connecticut. I graduated and I went to work in New York. I worked at Goldman Sachs & Company.
Presently I am looking at school and would like to take my GMAT. I stumbled upon the GMATPill on Google as I was just thinking about different test prep companies. I've actually done Manhattan GMAT-paid about $1500-$1600 dollars for it. But after taking the class and going through the film recordings I only felt like-I went through the books-I felt like most it was no very effective. I was searching for something else so I found the GMATPill and I was very impressed.
Copied I am thinking about school and would love to take my GMAT. First I did ManhattanGMAT--paid about $1500-$1600 for it. I took the class, went through the videos but felt some of it wasn't effective. So I looked approximately for something else and encountered the GMAT Pill--was quite impressed, needless to say.
GMATPill: Money you're a very person. Why is it that you wish to take time from your busy agenda to tell others about your GMAT Pill experience?
GMATPill: So you feel like they sort of got you into their basic program and they tried to upsell you on their private tutoring sessions.
Paul:It's generally a 12 session class and you sit in the first one. It's an introduction. You're left with some basic concepts. You have to read the book. A many the terminology is very confusing. At the end of the day you're discovering terminology, you're discovering what logical predication is and you're studying these fancy terms-but you are aware when you're taking the exam-none of that is gonna be on there. You just have to know that this sentence correction looks wrong or this data sufficiency is insufficient. You do not have to know all these fancy terms. And second, you're paying a lot. To your point about upselling-yea, they normally leave you kind of hanging at the conclusion. These firms are incentivized for you to not fully understand the material cuz then you'll need to go back and buy additional material and get more tutoring.
GMATPill:You mentioned before your experience so far with the GMAT Pill is better and you mentioned pricing. Can you walk into some more detail what other areas you feel it's better in? Of your money there's a pricing component-it's only a fraction of what the market- not only Manhattan GMAT-but what the marketplace charges. But what other aspects do you see specifically makes your experience better so far?
Paul:I think what they are trying to teach you is-they really try to drill into the material. It's so academic that most people who are troublesome to get this done and over with-it's not time efficient, let's just say that. So let me give you example of why GMAT Pill is effective. If you go to a Manhattan GMAT class, they will talk to you about theory. Thinks about communicate with you about all these different things that you must don't overlook. You take into account 7-8 different things you need to don't forget every time you observe a test question. It's the same with Kaplan and Princeton Review-I've used the books. With GMAT Pill- the important thing is you realize his mindset. You can read all these books-and most people will not ever get there-will never get to that mindset. Zeke plainly figured out the way to crack the GMAT and if you sit through sufficient of these video- there's plenty on the site-you begin to think like Zeke.
GMATPill:So you feel like the academic approach versus the thought procedure that I show students through these film footage-the thought process is actually better than the academic rigor that the other programs walk you through.
GMATPill:So you feel as if the academic approach versus the thought procedure that I show students through these film recordings-the thought process is actually superior to the academic rigor that the other programs walk you through.
