Owl Test Prep

9 months ago, I decided that I wanted to go back to school to get my MBA. Having been out of school for 9 years, I knew I needed to freshen up on my standardized testing taking skills prior to sitting for the GMAT. After some research, I can across a Groupon deal for a company called MyGuru that, based off of reviews, sounded good. I purchased a reasonably affordable package for GMAT group prep classes and readied for getting to it.
Days before classes were scheduled to begin, I got an email from the company owner telling me that unfortunately the classes had to be cancelled, but, considering the circumstances, he would pair me up with a private tutor from his staff and afford me a comparable number of hours in one-​on-​one sessions. While I was looking forward to working with peers in a classroom setting, the tutoring option was a great substitute.
The tutor with whom I was paired was John Easter. John and I worked together, on and off, for approximately four or five months, granted I had to purchase some additional session hours during this duration. Although it wasn’t cheap, it was a wise investment. Working with John, my practice exams increased continually. Between my first practice exam and the one and only time I sat for the actual GMAT, my score had increased by 65%.
The GMAT score that I was able to attain, coupled with strong applications and interviews, helped me to get accepted into the Kellogg part-​time program last week, and the Booth part-​time program yesterday. John’s assistance with and motivation in preparing for the GMAT was integral to my success.
I would recommend MyGuru — and, more specifically, highly recommend John Easter, to anyone who is preparing for any standardized test.

I worked with John 2 – 3 years ago when studying for the GMAT. He tailored a study program based on my strengths and weaknesses. In addition to test content and test strategy he worked with me to build my confidence so that I was capable and confident when I sat for the exam.
As for results, when I started with John I was scoring in the low 600s and I scored a 720 when it counted. Even after I took the test John helped me when making the decision about where to apply and even introduced me to alumni.
I have already recommended John and I will continue to do so wholeheartedly.

John is a fantastic tutor. In two months, he raised my score from a 600 to a 700 on the GMAT. He creates content that is personalized for your needs, and pushes you to reach your highest potential. There is absolutely no way I would’ve done well on the GMAT if it weren’t for John. I HIGHLY recommend him!
