Austin GMAT Review: Philosophy

Austin GMAT Review has one overarching goal: to help you improve your GMAT score through intelligent, disciplined, well-paced instruction and practice.

Our commitment to a high-quality education is at the foundation of our company. At Austin GMAT Review, we subscribe to the highest ideals of teaching. Learning is not compromised by profit, expediency or anything else. We believe learning is best done in small classes where things are not rushed and every student gets individual attention. It should come as no surprise that we have kept our GMAT classes small, with enrollment currently limited to 12 students per session.

We place great emphasis on properly paced instruction. Each of our GMAT classes runs for thirteen sessions, and consists of core content classes supplemented by live, instructor-led practice sessions. Unlike some of our competitors in the GMAT prep space, we neither offer nor intend to offer "crash courses" where the entire GMAT course is crammed into one or two weekends. We believe you will get a more solid grasp and practice of concepts through our intensive nine-week GMAT preparation program.

Another belief sacrosanct to our company is that the most effective learning occurs in an intimate face-to-face environment where the students get ample opportunity to discuss concepts in detail with the instructor. For this reason, we do not sell a virtual or "online-only" course for the GMAT. What we offer you instead is an exceptional full-length GMAT prep course in a small classroom setting.

As part of our business ethos, we believe that a GMAT preparation program should make available flexible choices that fit your specific needs, and not try to sell you things you do not need. For instance, if all you need is a few hours of individualized help in algebra or sentence correction, then a GMAT prep program ought to be able to offer you just that, as opposed to making you purchase a 15-hour package that you do not need. We offer you just that type of flexibility through our 1-1 tutoring program.
