The MBA Exchange has established alliances with a number of service providers who complement our MBA admissions consulting expertise. We’re pleased to highlight these firms and their capabilities in this blog series.
The GMAT is the first big hurdle that MBA applicants face. While we’ve helped clients with modest GMAT scores to gain admission to top-tier schools, achieving a score above the median definitely makes the application process less stressful and more successful.
There’s a wide range of tutors in the marketplace, and one size doesn’t fit all. So, we help our clients by analyzing their GMAT needs, goals and learning preferences based on confidential info they provide through our free Test Prep Evaluation.
One of the most distinctive GMAT test prep options we’ve discovered is GMAT Pill…
Zeke Lee, Founder & Chief Instructor of GMAT Pill says:
Feel like you’re sitting next to an expert GMAT instructor
Students come to GMAT Pill when they’re looking for a resource somewhere between “private tutor” and “large classroom.” They want one-on-one intimacy and the opportunity to ask questions, but can’t or don’t want to pay the higher price of an in-person, private tutor.
The GMAT Pill video course makes you feel like you’re sitting next to an expert GMAT instructor: you can see exactly where his attention is at any given moment. He’ll show you exactly what he’s looking for — and what he’s NOT looking for — in your GMAT prep performance. All you need to do is follow along, step by step.
This course is specifically designed for busy professionals who have demanding day jobs and thus can do GMAT prep only on weekday nights and weekends. Such applicants often use the “1-month study plan” to grasp the unique strategies we teach.
Many GMAT Pillstudents are former clients of big-name tutoring services who still underperform on the GMAT even after paying fees as high as $1,500. Then, they come to GMAT Pill and are blown away by how much they improve on the next test after paying just a fraction of the original amount.
A High GMAT Score Can Help Pay for B-school
Most applicants think that all they need to achieve their goal is a “competitive” GMAT score. However, one thing that many don’t consider is that a high GMAT score not only impacts their admissions chances but also qualifies them for merit-based financial aid. Some GMAT Pill studentsgot a HUGE return on their investment in the form of five-figure scholarships! This paid for not just their prep but also the entire first year at b-school!
GMAT Pillsatisfies a unique need for MBA applicants, offering a private GMAT tutoring experience — but for much, much less than they would pay elsewhere. We also allow our students the flexibility to purchase individual sections of the GMAT prep course. Say, for instance, that you’re strong in quant and need help only in verbal; we offer you the option to purchase just our verbal package. You can even purchase just the sentence correction “pill” if that’s all you want. Of course, the best “bang for the buck” is in our full-package course.
Value Proposition: Less Time, More Points
Another benefit of our program is that 3-6 months of studying are condensed into 28 hours of “thought-process” videos that you can watch online — anywhere and anytime. You may actually do better by studying less if you learn how to think efficiently the GMAT Pill way. If our student has a question, he or she simply posts it in the comments area below each video and we’ll answer promptly. Or reach out directly to me and I will personally assist you myself! (Note: Zeke achieved 98th percentile in just 2 weeks of intense prep using methods of the GMAT Pill.)
We’re different from other GMAT services because we show students exactly how we think through an actual exam question. That is, we indicate exactly where our eyeballs go — how we scan answer choices. In many cases, we show you how to answer the question without even looking at all the answer choices. Acing the GMAT is about “beating the system,” so that’s what we teach.
Also, our approach is very personal. It’s taught from the same instructor throughout all sections. With other courses, you might have one instructor for verbal and another in quant, each with different teaching styles. But with GMAT Pill you get one, fully integrated experience through all sections — plus 24/7 support.
‘Booby Traps’ Threaten GMAT Performance
We also focus on thought process rather than just concepts. For the most part, all students have a rudimentary understanding of underlying concepts. But the actual GMAT doesn’t test you just on concepts: they try to trick you; they put “booby traps” everywhere and hope you fall into them. If you can’t spot and avoid these traps, you’ll be one of the losers. So, we teach you a thought process for seeing those traps and steering away so you can focus on what really matters. This will help reduce the amount of time you have to spend on each question, which is a crucial part of the exam.
