Course Manhattan Prep Manhattan GMAT Private Tutoring

Instructor Jamie Nelson

Location Washington, DC USA

Jamie was a terrific tutor who really tailored her approach. I was having trouble with probabilities but was strong in algebra, and she worked with me to funnel my algebra strength to decode probability. Equally important, she made me confident in my general test-taking strategy so even if I was stumped by one question, I could deploy smart strategies to make an educated guess and move on. I took both the class and some private tutoring with Jamie. Highly recommend private tutoring with Jamie if you can swing it - great results at a faster speed. I got a score in the 700s.

Manhattan Prep GMAT 5 Stars

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Manhattan Prep did an excellent job at helping me prepare for the GMAT. I took the in person course taught by Jamie Nelson (in Houston) who did a great job of covering the base material as well as additional test strategies that can be very helpful. The class provided plenty of material to really get familiar with the types of questions which was a large part of my success. Other than studying the basics of all the topics covered in class, I highly recommend practicing questions until you can identify what type of question they are asking and what they are testing before working the problem. I would recommend this course to my friends. If you have the opportunity to take the course from Jamie, I highly recommend that as well.

Fantastic instructor!!

I took GMAT two weeks ago and got a 710. Jamie and other Manhattan instructors have helped me achieve my goal score. Manhattan discussion board has been helpful as well. Thanks Ron. The 9 week online course covers most basic concepts that you will see on the real test. The books are fantastic; they provide you with most things you need to know about the GMAT. If you are on the fence about about taking the course, please don't be. I can tell that the quality of teaching here is outstanding. The instructor I had, Jamie, was probably one of the most caring instructors I have ever had.

Excellent Course - Learn test strategy, not just content

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Great course overall. I tried studying for the GMAT on my own with various books and online resources, and did not see my score significantly improve. The key to the GMAT is that it is not about pure knowledge of grammar rules and mathematical theories - it is about understanding the test-maker's mentality, and the strategies required to beat the exam. This course goes into great detail on how to do just that, from shortcuts and alternate solving methods I would have never considered, to guessing strategies that mirror the test-maker's intent. Fantastic class, achieved exactly my target score thanks to Jaimie and the course.
