MAGOOSH contents are helpful. But if you study recent GRE questions, you will find MAGOOSH contents level is far behind from GRE contents. You should work more to catch GRE level.

The lessons and answers explanations are very easy to understand. Super super accurate score estimation in the real GRE. However, the verbal tests are not so close to the real ones, to my thinking.

Magoosh is probably one of the best platforms for Gre preparation. The FlashCards are brilliantly designed and helped me a lot. Both the verbal and quant lectures were great. Especially the RC Passage related to verbal lectures had to be mentioned explicitly. One minor improvement - the meaning of different words in verbal flashcard can a bit lucid so that it will be easier to understand the meaning easily.

Explanation for verbal part is quite good. Scope of improvement for quantitative section.

I thought Magoosh was pretty great. I loved that the practice problems had text and video explanations for every answer, and I loved that you can email the team for problem help and get a response within two days. Regarding the review videos: I found the verbal videos to be excellent, and incredibly helpful. I found the math videos to be frustrating. The narrator was, somehow, simultaneously pedantic and indecipherable. Not only was it was difficult to keep up with his pace of explanation, but his condescension irked me, and I ended up skipping many math videos as a result. Generally, I found it far more effective to review the answer videos after practice problems to learn concepts instead of watching lesson videos. I gave myself two and a half months to study for the GRE. I worked full time, exercises daily, and completely cancelled my social life. I literally lived underground for a winter and stopped seeing friends in an attempt to succeed. Aside from working, exercising, eating, and showering, I ONLY prepared for the GRE. So, I decided to follow the one month study plan, and hoped to complete one Magoosh "one month study day" for every two of my working days. This seemed reasonable, given my sacrifices outlined above. But following the study plan at half the suggested speed was beyond impossible. I couldn't even complete one Magoosh study day in three of my working days! I think the Magoosh scales are unrealiatically tipped in favor of excess video watching (at least for math) and I had much more success working out practice problems and learning from the solution explanation videos. Overall -- hell yeah, I recommend Magoosh. They provide you with all of the tools you need to succeed, and for a far more reasonable price than an in-person class. Just don't get discouraged if you can't follow the study plan. You'll do great anyway!

I really enjoyed the prep. And I found most videos to be extremely helping. unfortunately, I felt the video lectures spent a lot of time on concepts thats were not as frequent on the test as expected
