Courses & Services – Student Testimonials
Below you will find a few unsolicited testimonials we have received:
Want to let you know that I got accepted at Columbia! Thank you for you interview preparation -- It was definitely helpful.
-Dani (This student took our Mock Interview service in New York.)
...Thanks so much for you help! The 80 point improvement was fabulous! I wished I had hit the 700 mark, but 680 is around the 90% mark, so it should be okay...
...The Manhattan Review course not only focuses students upon solving complicated quantitative and verbal problems, but also prepares students for a range of cognitive failures that the GMAT exploits and few books address...
-Sahil (This student took our 28-hour long course in London.)
Since I took the GMAT preparation course with you approx. six months ago, I wanted to inform you that I got accepted at Kellogg and would like to thank you for your support.
-Fabian (This student took our weekend crash course in Munich.)
I took the GMAT yesterday and got......680 (unofficial score). Needless to say I am delighted, if somewhat stunned. I never thought I'd score 100 points higher than last time around. My maths improved the most (from 32nd percentile to 56th percentile) and I was in the 95th percentile in my verbal. If I'd had a few more weeks I'm sure I could have improved my maths score even more, but I'm happy with 680. Thanks for all your help and the excellent classes. They really were invaluable and worth every minute.
-Mathew (This student took our 28-hour long course in London.)
I took the gmat yesterday and my unofficial score is a 680! Hopefully, this score will be enough to get me into one of my programs of choice. Thank you for all of your help, your knowledge of the gmat and assistance definitely helped me improve my score.
-Michael (This student took our 28-hour long course and private tutoring in New York.)
I just wanted to let you know that I scored 750 in the GMAT first time around. Thank you very much for your help.
-Florian (This student took our weekend crash course in Frankfurt.)
I took the GMAT and scored 750 (Q50 V41). I found the Manhattan Review Crash course extremely useful in brushing up concepts and common mistakes, the small class size ensured private attention and the timing suited my hectic schedule. It's a quick fix to cracking the GMAT. Thanks Manhattan Review!
-Nitin (This student took our weekend crash course in New York.)
Yesterday - exactly one month after the weekend crash course - I took the GMAT and got an unofficial score of 710! That's really great! Thank you for all your support and help.
-Thomas (This student took our weekend crash course in Frankfurt.)
LBS is satisfied with my application and invites me for an interview. Your feedback on my essays helped me greatly.
-Kirill (This student has been accepted by LBS. We provided MBA Admissions advice and Mock Interview service.)
I just wanted to let you know that I took the GMAT yesterday and got 700. Thanks for your help.
-Simon (This student accessed our online recording library and is based in Italy.)
Did my GMAT again today and scored a 720! So Manhattan Review course contributed to a 80 points increase in my
score (first time I scored 640).
-Steven (This student took our Amsterdam GMAT crash course.)
I got a 730 (unofficially). A 44 quantitative and 47 verbal. Interestingly, my score on the verbal side went up on each practice
exam and the actual exam, while my math score was exactly the same every time, even though I studied much harder for the math because I found
it more difficult than the verbal.
-Ian (This student took our New York GMAT long course.)
I have just finished taking the GMAT, and I received a score of 720 :) Thank you for all the support and help.
-Abdullah (This student took our New York GMAT long course.)
I was able to raise my maths score significantly from 28 (25%) to 43(71%)... So in total I raised my GMAT score from 490 (36%)
to 580 (64%). The AWA score was 5.5 in both tests…I got into one of my two first choice programs. Thanks again and looking forward to
hearing from you again!
-Stephan (This student took our Munich GMAT crash course.)
I talked with my friend about this after every class. The consensus was that we both were charged after coming out of your classes.
It was the type of feeling where if I had the time I would have study for a good 12 hours. I hit a 47 for an 82nd percentile on the math...Verbal
went a touch better at 48 for 99, leaving me with a Total scaled score of 760 and knocking me into the 99th percentile….I also received 6 out of
6 on my AWA.
Thanks for all of your help.
-Eric (This student took our New York GMAT long course.)
At the end of March I took one of your weekend GMAT courses in Frankfurt. I just wanted to let you know that this investment has
paid off!!! I took the test two days ago - and my total score is 730! I’m so relieved... Thanks a lot to all of you.
Kind Regards,
-Anja (This student took our Frankfurt GMAT crash course.)
I just wanted to let you know that I have been accepted by the business school which I applied for in June. I am sure that one of
the key success factors was the essay. I am aware that my essay got only to the level of quality through the very professional and rapid
feedback from your staff members. Thanks to the team of Manhattan Review for making this help available quick and with high quality!
-Dagmar (This student is based in France. We offered our MBA Admissions feedback within 3 days of request.)
Now I am preparing for my GMAT tests. The course books Turbocharge Your GMAT and Official Guide For GMAT are very helpful. I think
the combination of these two books is very good. What I like the most about Turbocharge Your GMAT course is Vocabulary lists. The other
books don't provide such lists, but for me as a foreigner it is very important to learn the words that may appear in GMAT. For example,
I was afraid not to understand a task in math section or to misunderstand it, and not to give correct answer to relatively easy question
just because I didn't understand the data or the question. But after I learned Math Vocabulary list I very seldom misunderstand a task.
Now the hardest GMAT task for me is Reading comprehension, because my vocabulary sometimes is not enough to understand a text, especially
if it is historic matter. So now I am learning words from Vocabulary lists. Now I study hard every day, because I realize I am at a
disadvantage in comparison to test takers, whose native language is English.
-Natalia (This student is based in Russia.)
I got a 670 on the GMAT and I am very happy with that result. I find it difficult to have enough time after work and on weekends
for all the things (GMAT, TOEFL, Essays) that are necessary for a business school application. Therefore I am glad that I took your GMAT
course because it saved me a lot of time in the GMAT preparation.
Thank you again and best regards
-Max (This student took our Munich GMAT crash course.)
I attended a weekend course with Manhattan Review, the perfect timing for me while working. We managed to cover a lot of ground
very quickly and I ended up with 760, just what I needed for the Sloan program at London Business School that I will be
starting later this year.
-Rupert (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I took the GMAT recently & got a score of 690 (91 percentile). Although, I was aiming for a score over 700 I am quite
satisfied with it, since I have a very busy schedule and I had very little time to prepare. I believe Manhattan review's weekend course
and the mock tests really helped me maximize my score within a short time frame. Further, the classes gave me an opportunity to interact
with fellow test takers which was very useful since I learnt from their experiences in preparing for the test and taking the test.
Thank you & regards
-Raja (This student took our Berlin GMAT crash course.)
I took the GMAT crash course last year in August in Zurich (it was the weekend of those terrific floods in Switzerland...),
and I remember the instructor telling us to let you know how I did. Sorry it took so long! I got a 680, which was good for 90th percentile,
and it got me an 80% scholarship at the school that was my first choice. Thanks so much for the assistance. On more than one occasion
I heard my instructor's voice in my head during the exam. It helped immeasurably! The strategies, tactics, and the overall mindset he
prescribed made all the difference. Thanks again! Please pass on my thanks and appreciation to my instructor.
-Warm regards, Chris (This student took our Zurich GMAT crash course.)
This is just to let you know how I did in my GMAT. I got 710 overall, with my essays collectively
graded at 5.5. I was quite pleased with my result. Please pass on my thanks to our instructor. I thought he was an excellent tutor and I
enjoyed his approach to teaching the (invariably dry) subject matter.
-Thanks, Daniel (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
Today I scored 610 for my GMAT. This is 70 points up from the first time I took it. The Manhattan Review crash
course certainly helped me to improve my score!
Cheers, Saskia (This student took our Amsterdam GMAT crash course.)
I took my GMAT today and, as promised, am now reporting my GMAT score to you. 770. Not shabby, eh? Thanks for
all of your help! I got a 47 on verbal, which was 99th percentile. 49 on math (90th percentile), overall 99th percentile.
I am, to say the least, a happy camper.
-Jen (This student took both of our New York GMAT long course and private tutoring.)
I just got back from the test. Here's the result. 670 overall with 48 on the math and 34 on the verbal.
Thanks so much for your help!
-Mika (This student took our New York GMAT crash course.)
I just wanted to let you know that this weekend's course in Barcelona was superb. I found really useful and the instructor was
extremely efficient, with both a very good knowledge about the topic and an impressible ability to communicate with the students and explain!
Wonderful, I would strongly recommend it to anyone preparing for the GMAT without hesitation. I also wanted to thank you for all your
administrative support!
-Marta (This student took our Barcelona GMAT crash course.)
You asked that I send you my GMAT score, so here you go: 680 (unofficial).I'm pleased and relieved. Thanks for your help.
-Dave (This student took our New York GMAT crash course.)
I attended the December 2005 weekend GMAT course and would just like to pass my thanks to my instructor. I only had time to do
about 5 hours self study so found the Manhattan Review course critical to my success. I took the GMAT for the first time last
Friday and scored 690. Many thanks to the team.
-Jonathan Y. (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I did the GMAT and unofficially scored 730!!! I never expected such a result, because I did not have much time to practice
(approx. 1 week). I just gave it a try... That’s maybe the best attitude towards taking the test. The prep course with Manhattan Review
helped a lot to achieve that. Thanks all for the great course!!
-Andreas H. (This student took our Munich GMAT crash course.)
I took the GMAT this past weekend in Manhattan and got a 680. I'm quite happy with the score - a bit frustrated as I wanted a 700,
but still pleased. The course was helpful. The best part I feel was the time spent drilling - and answering our questions on specific problems.
-Mike H. (This student took our New York GMAT crash course.)
I attended your GMAT course in Munich, which was fantastic, I regard it as a great help!
-Andy H (This student took our Frankfurt GMAT crash course.)
I attended one of your preparation courses and now got a GMAT Score of 710, which is quiet good, so thanks for your help!
-Daniel L. (This student took our Germany GMAT crash course.)
Just did my GMAT and got 720 score! Very pleased with that, your course was an excellent start for the preparations. Many thanks.
-Maarten T. (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I have recently attended this weekend session of the Manhattan Review's GMAT course in London. I had hoped the course would be valuable
in improving my mathematical and critical reasoning skills. Instead, the course exceeded all my expectations. I mentioned my observations to
a group of fellow attendees and we all agreed we had learnt more in one day from this course than in our final year of secondary education!
-Christina H. (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I really found the course to be extremely useful, especially in helping me remember math that I learned back in the 9th grade and learning
short-cut techniques to cut through grueling calculations.
-Jason P. (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I took the test yesterday…and got a 710! I am really pleased with that result, and want to thank you Laura for all of your help during
the Manhattan Review weekend. I definitely am glad that I took the course :)
-Lauren S. (This student took our Frankfurt GMAT crash course.)
I got my GMAT score up to 740. Thanks again for all your help and, hopefully, I’ll see you next year as a student.
-Tapiwa M. (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
The math part was excellent in reviewing algebra. The review of English grammar was superb and I honestly feel more confident.
I would certainly recommend this course to my friends. I was also happy with the English sentence correction review. Prior to coming
for the course my score was really poor in the sentence correction section and now I am making tremendous progress. I feel I will be
ready to do the exam in the first week of March as I am busy working for the moment as a junior doctor in Edinburgh.
-Ikol N (This student took our London GMAT crash course.)
I took the class with Joern in August and scored a 760 in September. Thanks for your help!
-Mark O. (This student took our Germany GMAT crash course.)
Thought you’d like to know…I scored 770 (unofficially) on the test Monday morning in Twickenham.
-Alan H. (This student took our GMAT crash course.)
Thanks for all your help, and the solutions you sent. I just thought I would let you know that I took the GMAT exam today and scored 720.
I am thinking of going to INSEAD for a 1-year course beginning January 2003. I thank you for your help and wish you all the very best for the future.
-Michael B. (This student took our GMAT crash course.)
Overall went well - 730. Thanks for your help. My performance on sentence corrections really improved thanks to your dissection
of those examples in class. Give my best to Joern as well. I hope to either see you at INSEAD or Joern at Columbia if all goes well.
-Gerry P. (This student took our GMAT crash course.)
I thought you may like to know my GMAT score. I sat for it on Dec. 17 and got a 730.
-Eric (This student took our GMAT crash course.)
Just to let you know that I got a 690 on my GMAT. Not what I aiming for (700) but quite OK given the time I put in.
Thanks for all your help and maybe see you at INSEAD!
-Filipe D. (This student took our GMAT crash course.)
