On a modest yet honest note, this is not an archetypal ‘GMAT Coaching’ one imagines when one thinks of a classroom training. The program is premium with limited slots, meant for students who are truly sincere in their approach and looking for some old-school, concepts driven mentoring in a serene classroom setting. Every year, we conduct just one GMAT batch that commences on the second Sunday of April and lasts for 13 weeks (our support continues for up to 1 year). All sessions are taken by the Founder of Experts’ Global.
Our Founder, Mr. Mayank Srivastava, teaches all classes under the GMAT Classroom Program. He has completed his MBA from Boston University on 100% scholarship. Mr. Srivastava is a call holder from top global MBA programs as well as IIMs; he is a 99thpercentiler on GMAT as well as CAT, besides being the topper in Combined Defence Services. Gifted with top-notch numerical and analytical abilities, Mr. Srivastava has been imparting test-prep training since 2006; he is a successful entrepreneur and has been covered by various leading media houses.
The batch comprises exactly 13 students, each of who have the undivided attention of the Mentor. To establish a personalized rapport, the Mentor keeps himself free for an hour after the session and students use this opportunity to candidly discuss their plans with him over lunch or coffee.
The sessions follow a course of study very similar to that of the top MBA programs in the US. Through a well-designed pre-work regime, the ‘lecturing’ element is eliminated from the classroom sessions; Power-Point presentations help minimize the use of chalk and board, and the process of students taking notes is almost eliminated through the slides’ handouts. In basic terms, the emphasis of these personalized classroom sessions is on ‘discussions’.
At the beginning of the preparation, a student is required to appear for a GMAT like diagnostic test to helps us understand his or her initial level in all types of questions appearing on the GMAT. Keeping in mind the number of hours a student can devote towards preparation on weekdays and over the weekend, a daily study plan is personalized. When a student follows the study plan sincerely, results always follow!
As a part of the classroom program, every student gets access to our robust online platform (our online program) as well, for one year. The online platform carries videos for all topics so a student can access/watch a lesson any number of times!
The sessions are held in the Business Center of Hotel Mosaic, a premium boutique hotel in the heart of Noida, Sector -18; the facility is at a walking distance (50 meters) from the Sector 18 Metro Station and is thus very convenient even for students coming in from distant places such as Gurgaon, Faridabad, and West Delhi. As the sessions are held only one day per week (2 Hours for Quant; 2 Hours for Verbal), on Sundays, students do not encounter much traffic and thus do not end up wasting much time on the commute.
For revenue, we have an advanced online program with a global audience and admissions consulting services (every 10th Indian in the US Top 50 B-schools happens to be our student). The classes conducted by the Founder are primarily for his interest in teaching and not commercial in nature; instead, they are customized, premium sessions.
A: The program lasts 13 Sundays (hence, a span of 12 weeks). During each session, 2 Hours are devoted to Quant and 2 Hours to English. The doubt sessions continue until one takes the GMAT. It is recommended that a student enrolls around one month before the start of the program to refurbish the forgotten concepts.
A: The study material comprises a set of hard books, e-books, and computer based tests to help a student progress from a very modest level of preparation to an advanced level.
A: The answer to this is a strict No. The entire literature- concept books, practice books, computer based tests shall be provided by us.
A: Yes. The sessions encompass all four sections –Quant, Verbal, AWA, IR.
A: Yes, this is the only form of a discount on offer. When two students enroll, we offer a 10% discount to each. 15%, 20%, 25% discount is provided on groups of 3, 4, 5 or more respectively.
A: It is recommended that one enrolls a month prior to the commencement of the classes. This will help us formulate a personalized ‘Foundation Course’ for the student, as per his or her existing preparation needs. Such an approach helps ensure that the basics are in place for the student to make the most of the sessions. Moreover, it also helps ensure that he or she is able to emerge with a high level of preparation at the end of the sessions and would be able to take the GMAT in around two weeks after the classroom program ends. The ideal duration for the preparation is: four weeks for the foundation course + 11 weeks for the classes + two weeks of intense preparation for the actual GMAT; in this manner, a student reaches his or her peak in approximately four months.
A: The fee is INR 36,000; this includes everything and needs to be paid upfront. The same fee applies to all and there is no room for negotiation.
A: We do not offer a Demo Class. However, you have the option of asking for a 100% fee back after the first pair of classes. In this regard, we will not ask you for any explanation and will just initiate a complete refund. However, not even a single student till date has exercised this option.
