It was honestly great!

It was honestly great, and it fully covered all the content that would be on the ACT. However, the practice questions could use some work. Most questions and passages are harder than the actual passages and questions on the ACT, so accuracy could be better. This is also a benefit because getting used to harder than average questions better prepares you to tackle the ACT.

Great in a pinch

With only 9 days to get ready for my exam, Magoosh was the best thing I could have used to prepare and I am glad I did. I got my desired scores.

Magoosh was amazing!

Magoosh was amazing! My aim was a band score of 8, but with magoosh I achieved 8.5! The personalized interview and writing feedback was extremely helpful. The practice questions gave me a lot of confidence in my abilities. I would 100% recommend to anyone!

The best in my experience

One of the best, if not the Best, resources available for GRE prep! Has all necessary facilities and plans designed for self study, that too at pretty reasonable price. Thank you Magoosh team!

Magoosh made learning easy

Magoosh made learning easy. Their pre-made plans helped me keep track of how much I was studying and what topic without the stress of creating a plan myself. I passed I matched my GRE goal on my first attempt. I’ve recommended the study tool to my other friends and they’ve enjoyed it too!

Not transparent prices

Not transparent prices. I extended my subscription, the price offered was 143 USD, however, nobody talked about the $10.02 sales tax... I feel tricked.

So sorry about this! We did not realize the sales tax was missing on the extension screen. We've fixed the issue so students will see the sales tax going forward. Thank you for your feedback.

World Class Customer Experience

Hands down the best customer service I have ever experienced.
I accidentally bought the wrong product without realizing it. Chanda from Magoosh proactively reached out to me to help me out. She said that she had noticed that I might have made a mistake. Magoosh ended up moving me to the right product AND refunding me the difference I had paid too much.

The amazing part is that I didnt even complain. They just noticed that I made a mistake and corrected it even though it meant they would make less money.

The GMAT course itself is very good. The explanations are clear and the practice problems are extremely well designed.

Highly recommended!

Magoosh isn't accurate to the real GRE

I started using Magoosh to study for the GRE in July and I took the test a few weeks ago. While I was using Magoosh, I loved it and thought that it explained the math very well and covered a variety of topics. I took 3 practice test with Magoosh, my score improving each time. However, when I took the actual test, the math was far beyond what was shown to me on Magoosh and I was very lost. I have practiced the Magoosh math for months and was totally blindsided by how difficult the questions were on the actual test. On the Quantitative Section, I scored lower than I had on my previous two Magoosh practice tests. I feel like I wasted my time using Magoosh as it did not accurately prepare me for the test math. Do youself a favor and use official ETS stuff instead - its probably way more accurate.

Magoosh - A Scam

I got a premium of Magoosh 1 week ago and after 6 days I realized that it's not unique. When I asked for a refund they denied saying you have used the service and how can I test a website without using your service. I will suggest you use testglider this website as it has all features and top-level questions for IELTS.

Sorry about this. We do not deny our 7-day refund for any reason (including using the service) as long as the refund is requested within 7 days of your first purchase. Since you requested the refund within 6 days of purchase, we should have refunded you. I know this is long delayed, but if you email us, we can look back at your account and then find a way to make this right.

A Splendid platform at an extremely reasonable price to prepare for GRE

Kudos to the team for setting up an excellent platform to prepare for GRE. Just adjusting their 90-day plan to suit my preferences and working diligently on their sums and mistakes I made during my practice, I've scored 321 in my first attempt itself (unofficial, awaiting awa grades). I'd definitely recommend anyone planning to get a self-paced gre preparation subscription to go for magoosh!
