Test Prep Unlimited

Josh was a fantastic GMAT tutor. He worked around my incredibly grueling work schedule, followed up with me to make sure I completed assignments, and focused on the most efficient way to get me my target score. He was patient and made sure I understood the foundation of difficult questions so that I could apply that approach to other difficult questions. I ended up getting a 740 on the GMAT, which is exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Josh!

Josh is the greatest. Taking a test like the GMAT can seem daunting, but he helped ease the stress. He’s a very patient, knowledgeable, resourceful, and skilled instructor I would recommend to anyone who needs to take the GMAT or is looking to increase his or her score. Before I scheduled my first appointment, I called him seeking information about not only his program, but about applying to schools and how to submit my strongest application. Without ever meeting me or taking a deposit, he answered all my questions fully and thoughtfully, without a guarantee that I would even use his service.
I opted to go with his private tutoring over cookie-​cutter test prep because I was a little late to the party and had less than a month to submit my GMAT scores to the first school I was applying to. I worked with Josh for only 8.5 hours and my score rose by 30 points from my first practice exam, even though I wasn’t able to study outside of our sessions because I was so busy with work and school. I really believe it when he says he has the fastest score increase rate in the world. I ended up getting into one of my top 3 choice schools, and I’m waiting to hear back from others.
Thank you so much for all of your help, Josh. You helped instill a lot of confidence in me and I feel like I could not have done this without it.

Josh is a fantastic tutor. He helped my sister get a 2300 on the SAT after other tutors failed to deliver. He’s really friendly and has the ability to explain things in a really understandable way. :) thanks Josh.

I’m so glad I picked Josh as my GMAT tutor. I was initially hesitant to pay for more tutoring after working with Manhattan and not getting the score I wanted. (My score only raised 30 points after taking their class, and I needed 60 more.) But after digging around and seeing all the unique and helpful content he wrote on his website, I decided to reach out to him.
I learned so much in the first few minutes of talking, from how Manhattan’s strategies and materials were inadequate, to what misconceptions I held about the GMAT (some of which I picked up from Manhattan’s class!) that I realized: «If I’m learning this much already, before I’m even paying, there must be a whole lot more to learn».
So I decided to work with him… And I have ZERO regrets!
–He designed the entire course just for me, from start to finish. (Another premium tutor I decided not to hire used what was obviously a mass-​produced approach.)
–He provided all materials (and there were A LOT!)
–He kept in constant contact, making sure I was always making progress.
–He’s really friendly and I can tell he cares a lot about his students
–He helped me exceed my goal by 20 points!
It was a lot of work and it was expensive, but it was well worth it. If you want the best GMAT tutor out there, look no further.

I didn’t get what I paid for. It’s way too expensive for such little help. I didn’t see a change in my grades or test scores. And I feel like I just wasted a bunch of time and money on this guy. It isn’t worth it. Find a tutor that actually gives a shit about you and will push you to do better. Definitely not what I got from here.

I was preparing for precalculus, and Josh was such an amazing help. His knowledge of mathematics is truly «high definition,» and I felt like he was able to see where my mental picture was «missing pixels,» and helped to fill them in. He even drew me a graph of the city when I kept getting lost to our appointments, and helped me approach my navigational confusion from a mathematical perspective.
I know I have a weird brain; I need to understand the philosophy behind mathematical concepts before I can begin to understand formulas and how they work.
Josh easily adapted his approach to my learning style in a way my professor couldn’t. I was impressed by his ability to effortlessly navigate between traditional and alternative teaching styles, and I would therefore recommend him for anyone at any level.

Josh is by far the best teacher I’ve ever had. When I came to him, I didn’t know if I’d be able to reach my target GMAT of 700 on time (got 590 a month prior and I work full-​time), but he helped me turn it around in about 6 weeks. He is able to explain things in a way that none of my other teachers or tutors have been able to. I found his dry erase board really helpful because I am a visual learner. Plus, I didn’t even know I could gain so many points studying verbal as well (I thought it would all be quant). I got a 710 with 25 hours of tutoring! It was expensive, but well worth it. Thanks Josh! You’re awesome!

I had taken a Veritas course, practiced on all of their CATs and the official CATs, then went into test day and got rocked by how weird the Verbal section was. Needless to say, the 790 Veritas average wasn’t accurate.
In just a month, Josh saved my scored and bschool hopes by upleveling my Critical Reading and Reading Comp on the hardest standardized test questions out there from a variety of other exams, helped me hone Sentence Correction to a science and taught me a lot more math and how to solve problems with many different ways. 30 days later and I’m at the top of the 80% spread for all of my schools.
Thanks!

My 14 year old daughter started Lowell this year. It was recommended after she took the placement test that she should get some type of tutoring support either provided by the school district or on her own. Unsure as to what to do I found Josh. We started seeing josh religiously every week for an hour. I would say 5 weeks in to the semesta my daughter’s confidence had grown immensely. She maintained an A average when the average of the class was a B. Josh was able to explain very simply the concepts in the classroom. As a result of this, we see Josh when a chapter becomes confusing or she has a test. Were now almost at the end of the first semesta. Her strongest subject is maths. We are now struggling a little with Biology and were turning to Josh for help. I don’t know what his magic is but I would certainly reccomend him.

Range of students might be home schooled kids who work for mom in a toy store to ACT prep or GME prep. My main regret is not using Josh more often. I did not think he was worth it, but now I see he is worth every penny and more. Should have taken son out of high school and tried the Josh method.
Parents need to be clear what they want to work on. He will do what you want, but do you really know what’s best for your child? Are we trained education experts or merely parents obsessed with getting the perfect score on the test? He is willing to discuss what you want, but you need to ask him to challenge you.

I was struggling with a trig and stats class in high school and Josh helped me turn my C into an A by the end of the year. He’s very good at breaking things down and making them easier to understand along with demonstrating real-​world importance and application of some of the drier material.

Josh helped me improve my GMAT score by 100 points in 6 weeks.
I first took the GMAT without a tutor thinking that I would be okay and scored a 440. I still applied to grad school and was turned down by the school I really wanted to attend for my MBA. They told me that they would reconsider my application if I was able to improve my score to meet their average admission score. I only had 6 weeks to improve my score before the deadline, which is about half of the time the GMAC recommends the average person study. After searching the internet for tutors I came across Josh and told him my story and how I needed to improve my score dramatically in such a short period of time. I actually was turned down by other GMAT tutors in the bay area who told me that my goal was unrealistic and they would not be able to help.
I setup a schedule with Josh and worked twice a week for 3 hours with him after I got off work. He is very naturally gifted tutor and you can instantly tell he knows the material and the strategy to succeed on the GMAT. Every night after our sessions he would send me supplemental material and instructions on what I should be studying on my own in between our sessions. I cannot say I have ever worked with someone so dedicated to help me be successful and stay motivated. I ended up scoring a 540 the second time on exam after working with Josh and the admissions council reconsidered my application and accepted me. I achieved my goal with Josh and will now be attending University of the Pacific in the fall to pursue my MBA.

Josh is worth the investment if you want to improve your GMAT score.

I found Josh through a Craigslist posting when I was in urgent need of a statistics tutor. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable in the subject, and I found him to be flexible around my schedule. I would recommend his services for any individual that was seeking a math tutor including college level courses. I loved working with Josh, and found his enthusiasm to help me understand the subject matter refreshing. I struggle with math, and he made me into an A student. Hire him!
