  ### 2. Magoosh - Studying for the GRE

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Chemicals | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2018

**What do you like best about Magoosh?**

I loved the Magoosh online GRE preparation. I think it really assisted in my preparation for the exam. As I wasn't one with a schedule that was amenable to the in-person class, using the online methods really helped my score. I was able to study for the GRE whenever I wanted. I also found the practice tests comparable to those given by Kaplan, which is not typical of external sources of practice exams. Their "endless" supply of questions for the exams really helped me study and most definitely caused an increase in my score. I was able to take multiple practice exams leading up to test day and my exam was high enough that I didn't have to retake the test. I also really liked their essay services, which assisted with writing essays.

**What do you dislike about Magoosh?**

The only bad thing about the Magoosh GRE preparation is that I found a few of the questions very repetitive. This could be good, as the GRE tends to recycle questions, but I found myself spending extra time during study sessions because I wasn't getting new questions. But, as they say, practice makes perfect.

**What problems is Magoosh solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They are very good at emailing. I still receive emails from Magoosh to help them with their ratings and to assist in advertising with other students who might benefit from their product.

  ### 3. Magoosh is the quant and verbal wizard you need !

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in E-Learning | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2017

**What do you like best about Magoosh?**

Magoosh is excellent not only because of its design, interface and simple layout, but also because of the depth  of challenging questions that help you prepare for the actual rigor of a GRE test. Additionally, the progress review section gives you an overview of your overall performance as well as weak spots, making it easier to identify questions types you need to work harder on.

**What do you dislike about Magoosh?**

Although I am generally very satisfied with Magoosh, the number of practice questions tend to  run out rather quickly once you've used the platform, so you continue re-doing the same questions over and over again despite knowing the answers.

**Recommendations to others considering Magoosh:**

Considering the plethora of GRE prep plans and tools available in the market, Magoosh offers the most comprehensive package at the most economical price. Also, it is important to follow the official ETS GRE prep guide in combination with Magoosh to get the best results out of both and ace on the test day.

**What problems is Magoosh solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have been using Magoosh for GRE preparation as well as to sharpen my basic math skills.

There is mobility of using this software as an applictaion where we can learn about many courses like GRE, TOEFL, GMAT, ACT, SAT. This are the courses present in the form of applications on the play store and app store both. This is a good teaching software where there is no need to attend the lectures in the institutes and going so far to just learn about 2 or 3 hours. It is providing mobile application where we can watch the video lectures and attend many of the articles, comprehensions, sentence completion and many more, students are loving this software because of the mobility and learning where ever you want to. And I have also experienced using this software since 6 months and it is quite good for the international exams.

**What do you dislike about Magoosh?**

Personally I don't have any dislikes for this type of teacher or we can say software because it teaches you in a quite good manner. But some times it becomes bad for our eyes as we have to attend almost 200 online leactures, so it can affect our eyes. Otherwise the application is Best.

**Recommendations to others considering Magoosh:**

I would recommend this software to the graduates who are recently completing there bachelors degree and thinking to go for the masters or MBA. It is a good source of learning easily and mobility is the most positive point of this application.
