Bloomberg Exam PrepReviews of bloombergprep.com

Wanted to provide an opinion on the Bloomberg prep, which I have found to be a great resource, especially for beginners. It was something I had not heard of when I was beginning my GMAT prep but discovered it by happenstance and absolutely loved it. There were a lot of concepts that I needed to revise or had completely forgotten, but this course was an excellent help because it introduces each topic from a basic level and progresses at a customized rate. The personal tutor feature is very interactive and presents excellent prompts that make you forget you are talking to a software. What I really liked was that they not only explained the correct answers but also provided detailed explanations on how people could arrive at a wrong answer. It's not just a tool to master GMAT concepts but also to practice a range of strategies and problem-solving methods that will help improve your score as well as time on the actual exam. That is perhaps its best feature to me, its emphasis on a holistic preparation for the GMAT exam rather than being limited to concepts and practice questions. It provided a range of statistics on my success rate as well as which chapters were my weakest and strongest. It also has great flexibility in terms of choosing what topics to practice and in switching between them. One thing they could improve on is providing more practice questions or mini exams because there is not a dedicated practice section, rather they have study sections for each topic where you have to navigate through concepts and practice questions together. Would love to hear more from interested/ existing users.

I don't see this resource used much among students preparing for the GMAT, I've been using it for a while now and IMO it's really good, especially if you're starting from 0 like I was. They go through each topic with a lot of depth, starting from the very base (basis of algebra, even and odd numbers rules, grammar rules) they guide you through topics to make sure you have a good understanding of it and you can use the knowledge in different types of problems. The course works in a very interactive way, as if you had a tutor explaining the arguments; on it you can also find practice exams and ask questions to actual tutor who will clear your doubts. The only thing about it is I wish there was a section to review the specific problems I've gotten errors on, but other than that, I really recommend the Bloomberg prep for the GMAT.

Disappointing compared to what I expected. Their 'smart' learning algorithm frequently gets things out of order, testing you on concepts before you have been taught them. Quite frustrating. Few resources compared to competitor providers.

Terrible service use Kaplan. Their “AI” tech is ineffective. The software experiences lots of glitches and outages. They have some technology timeouts that reduces study times reported so they can make claims on how effective it is. You screen time browser for example will say you spent 2 hours there and they claim 45-75 minutes. They basically just take the content and add a couple questions to it, grammar issues and more
