Well, 2 main reasons:
1. We felt that we were repeating the same things
2. The level of interaction in live sessions sometimes used to be too low.

So we decided to discontinue live batches for now. 

Nevertheless, we* are very much involved with GMAT Intensive still. The recorded course is up to date for the Focus edition and we intend to continue to refine and add more content to the course. 

* We = Anish and CJ :)

We started GMAT Intensive as a live-online classroom course. Then we started offering the same course in a recorded format as well – at a fraction of the cost.

We have decided to not conduct any live batches for the foreseeable future. So, the only offering is the recorded course. The content is identical to what we offered in the live batches. Just that the sessions are not conducted live and are recordings of recent batches. 

No. Sessions are one part of the course. In addition to session recordings, you will get access to pre-session and post-session content in the form of articles and videos to enhance your learning. 

The course also includes recordings of past workshops conducted by Anish and CJ.

Well, the course is self-paced. So, yes – you will have to go through the content on your own.

However, we are not asking you to jump into the deep-end of a pool without any support.
The course includes weekly doubt sessions. These doubt sessions (office hours) are conducted by Anish or CJ only. They happen every weekend. We keep shuffling between 7 AM, 3:30 PM and 7 PM India times so that people in different time zones can use the office hours. In the office hours, you may discuss anything you’d like related to your GMAT prep. 
Anish and CJ reply to student comments on the portal regularly as well. 

The course will act as a framework for you to understand the skills that the GMAT tests, and help you build those abilities. You will be able to use this course along with your own preparation to master the GMAT.

No, Mock tests aren’t a part of the course. However, you’llbe guided on which mocks to purchase. For practice, the course includes trackers through which students can practice thousands of official questions.

We got a good deal from the GMAT. You can purchase the GMAT Official Practice Exams 3 – 6 for a 30% discount. This offer is there till ‘stocks’ last.
Here’s the link: https://gmatintensive.com/product/gmat-official-practice-exams-3-6/

A bunch of lessons are marked ‘Sample lesson’ in the course. Those should give you a better idea about the course.

There isn’t a trial period, however we have a 30-day refund policy in place.

There are 2 ways to get your doubts resolved.

1. Your doubts related to pre and post-session work you may ask as a comment on the portal itself. The coaches typically get back within 24 hours.
2. You will also have weekly Office Hours (doubt sessions) every weekend for 6 months. In these office hours you may discuss anything related to your GMAT prep. There is a format in which we expect you to post your doubts at least 12 hours before the session so other students may also go through them beforehand. All the office hours are conducted by either Anish or CJ.

Almost.

We’ll cover all the important concepts and work on the processes and the skills required to apply those concepts. However, some basic math concepts, such as solving linear equations or calculating the average of a set of numbers, will not be covered in the course.

For any learner just starting their GMAT journey, and anyone who is unsure about how to further improve.

We will work on the foundation in a way that we believe will help you get a high score. We do not cover tricks and hacks. If you are looking for a short-cut to get a good score without putting in the effort, this would not be a good fit.

We focus on depth, and not breadth. If you are looking for a high quantity of questions per session, this course is not right for you. 

In our CR sessions, we typically cover 2-3 questions/ session

In RC: 1 passage / session

Within these questions, we go threadbare and explore all aspects of the questions in-depth. 

If you are looking for a high quantity of questions, this course may not be a right fit.

If you value quality over quantity and depth over width, and if you’re willing to learn, no matter where you are in your GMAT prep journey, the course will help.

    They will both participate in all three sections: Verbal, Quant, and DI

No. The Office Hours are group sessions. You can certainly ask your questions.

We ask that you make your questions specific, and show that you have put in thought.

E.g., it will not make sense for us to take up a question like: “Can you please explain this CR question?”

If you ask us, “I could not understand why option C is wrong, the passage already gives such and such details. What am I missing?” We’d be happy to try to work with you to help you understand it.

Perfect! That means you don’t have years of bad habits we need to undo. If you’re just starting out this is a great opportunity to build a clean foundation from the get-go.

When it comes down to it, the question of whether the GMAT INTENSIVE is worth the investment is really up to you.

Of course, you can find heaps of advice online for free, but in reality, you’re probably already wasting hours searching for answers to simple questions, only to wind up feeling none the wiser.

Alternatively, you can make a one-time investment in the GMAT INTENSIVE and receive access to a course that promises to help you prepare for the GMAT in a way that is logical, measurable and enjoyable.

The bottom line?

When you join this course, you’re investing in more than just an online program – you’re investing in yourself and your future.

Good question. Anish and Chiranjeev are among the top GMAT tutors in India and have been in the GMAT space since 2012.

You can go through verified reviews that both have received on their respective Google and LinkedIn profiles to see what their past students have to say. 

The simple answer? You don’t. We don’t either.

The truth is, we have no idea how you will consume the course content, or how good you are at following instructions and executing new ideas.
