College Testimonials
We at Manhattan GMAT pride ourselves on student feedback and open ourselves to criticism - both positive and negative. As a result, we encourage all prospective students research other GMAT Prep programs before settling on one. A prep course is an investment in the future, and it would be unwise not to collect information about other companies.
To ease this process, we have collected comments and reviews from past college students. Please use this page as a starting point for your research.

Instructors
Eric is the most amazing teacher I have ever had. He was brilliant, but I expected that. What I didn't expect was that he would be hysterically funny, always full of energy, and completely committed to helping each of us achieve our goals. He made the class worthwhile and enjoyable. I honestly miss spending three hours a week with him!"
(He) breaks down problems really well into the concepts being tested and explains both why the concept works and how we arrived there. Draws directly on the concepts that the GMAT tests, but also gives additional information on GMAT tricks, preferences, and tendencies."
Relates to college students, presents boring material in an engaging way. He holds your attention throughout class, is always prepared, and knows how to explain answers in ways that everyone will understand."
Abby clearly excels in the math content. She knows the material inside and out and explains it well. I appreciated her enthusiasm when it came to math problems, and her impressive command of the material."
Curriculum
Incredibly well researched and well presented. I like that the curriculum teaches strategies, not just material. The little technique and tricks are so valuable."
The materials provide ample practice problems and comprehensive reviews of long-forgotten rules and equations."
Practice exams provide great analysis. Thorough guides, like that there are basic and advanced elements and the challenge problems at end and each chapter."
Very thorough books. All the study guides gave me a good review of topics I had long forgotten. Sentence correction and VIC tactics were particularly helpful."
Strategy guides are the best I've seen."
Overall Experience
Manhattan GMAT increased my score by over 100 points from the start of the course to the end of the course. Overall, an outstanding company, top-tier service and content."
A big commitment but absolutely worth it if you can truly commit the time for homework etc. Everything is top-notch, from instructors to materials to online resources. I would do MGMAT over Kaplan, etc. ANY DAY--it's worth the $."
Manhattan GMAT gives a variety of tactics for accelerating the pace that you complete the test and gives you lots of time frames that are useful to keep in mind. They also give you a thorough review of every possible topic that could appear on the test, as well as tactics for guessing."
If you want to get a top score, great place to go."
If you are going to take a GMAT class, definitely take it with Manhattan GMAT. They do a great job and I can't think of anything else I would want out of the class."
For sure, one of the best, if not the best, test prep companies. Having taken classes with Kaplan for the SAT and MCAT, I can safely say that Manhattan GMAT is a cut above the rest."
Tailored to meet needs of more advanced students in terms of prior knowledge, i.e. does not walk you through the basics but helps you improve upon fundamentals already in place."
