More Classroom Hours to Cover Everything You Need
Because the Veritas Prep program is longer than those of its rivals, Veritas Prep instructors are able to start at an elementary level and progress to advanced concepts, without skipping anything in between. This proven approach gives Veritas Prep students the confidence and skill to attack even the most challenging GMAT problems. The GMAT is a rigorous examination, and programs that attempt to cover the entire exam in less than 30 hours can only provide superficial coverage of the important topics, putting their students at a distinct disadvantage.Passionate, Experienced GMAT Instructors
All Veritas Prep instructors have scored in the 99th percentile on the actual GMAT, ensuring mastery of the material, but that's only the beginning. Each instructor also has significant teaching experience and a demonstrated passion for helping others duplicate their GMAT success. Once hired, all Veritas Prep instructors must complete the most comprehensive instructor training program in the industry — more than 100 hours of training to ensure that they meet the company's high standards. Veritas Prep pays its instructors 3-4 times as much as Kaplan and The Princeton Review pay theirs, helping Veritas Prep attract and retain the best GMAT instructors in the industry.Better GMAT Preparation in Every Respect
The Veritas Prep GMAT preparation program offers more GMAT practice tests and more support than any other GMAT company in the world. Moreover, Veritas Prep offers more diagnostic feedback than any of its rivals, allowing students an unprecedented opportunity to pinpoint their own weaknesses and address them with proven Veritas Prep methods. Because Veritas Prep hires and trains the best instructors, conducts the most comprehensive courses, offers the most practice tests, and provides unmatched support, it can also offer the finest GMAT Score Guarantee in the industry.MBA Admissions Workshop Included with Every GMAT Course

"I took my GMAT today and got an unofficial score of 760!!! I wanted to thank you very much for your advice and instruction. I found the Veritas Prep class extremely helpful and now it has opened many doors for me. The techniques you taught us really paid off for me. I used your advice on writing a formula cheat sheet during the tutorial and came up with an acronym for the formulas I wanted to have easy reference to. I used QuITFFASE (Quadratic Formula, Interest formulas, triangle properties, factoring/reduction hints, common fractions, area and volume formulas, statistics formulas, common exponents). SWIMMER, IMPACTS, and STAMP became second nature for me. I did two diagnostics and six full practice tests before I took the actual exam. I actually started studying out of some other GMAT prep books in November of 2004. Although the books did help, I firmly believe that the Veritas Prep course pushed me into the 700 range. If I had to do it all over, I would gladly take the Veritas Prep course again. Again, thank you so much. I am still euphoric about my test results. I would emphatically recommend the Veritas Prep course to anyone that wants to get a high GMAT score."
