It's been awhile since I have studied for anything so this was a great refresher course and was exactly what I needed to remember. I think it was better to do online as it wasn't as expensive as going to the class, but I feel it had the same feeling as being in the classroom. |

This course gave a decent overview of the breadth of the GMAT. It didn't go into any great detail teaching any particular subject, but gave a good feel for the diversity of problems presented. It gave good tips for quickly completing problems that otherwise might bog you down. The extra practice problems and practice tests that come with the course provide lots of exposure and repetition, though nothing is as good as the actual GMAT books. Overall I was happy with the course. The LiveOnline part I didn't find particularly useful--I think I asked a total of one question during the live sessions. It was, however, nice to know that there was someone there to ask a question to 24/7. Emailed responses from the instructors were prompt and helpful. Get every book you can, and practice practice practice! |

The personalized instruction that I received enabled me to focus on areas that I most needed to improve. My instructor's extensive experience in tutoring was extremely valuable, as she was able to equip me with valuable tricks processes to be a more efficient and accurate test taker. Through the use of the Princeton Review books, online modules, practice GMAT exams, and individualized tutoring, I felt comfortable and confident on the day of my exam.

Taking a refresher course for the GMAT was necessary for me--I haven't taken basic math and English courses since high school. My instructor really guided me through the course and taught me the strategies I'd need to overcome the tricks and traps that the GMAT utilizes. The Princeton Review company has the best customer service I have ever encountered. Any question or problem I had was resolved immediately, fully, and cheerfully. Overall, the LiveOnline course was a great investment. I haven't taken my GMAT yet, but I'm sure that my score will be much stronger because of The Princeton Review. |

The teachers Pawel and Andy were excellent. They would however concentrate more on the math section. I am an excellent math student and needed help more help with the verbal section. Although they thoroughly discussed the verbal topics, they did not provide as many hints as they did for the math. I knew exactly what to expect. How the is graded. I also learned how to maximize my time on the CAT. The homework and books were a great resource. I think you should take time to do the online drills and the online exams. They are a great resource. It helps you with time management. The online exams are a great imitation of the real GMAT. |
