Testcrackers got me into Oxford
Testcrackers helped me get into my top choice business school (Oxford MBA), and I couldn't have done it without them.If you put in the effort, Seth, Yuri, and all the instructors will go above and beyond to help you with additional study tools and tips until you get the score you want. If a GMAT/GRE coach was a thing, they would be the very best.I first started at a 540 GMAT to 640, but they stuck with me when I switched over to the GRE, and scored Q161 V163, which got me into the Oxford MBA on the very last round.Couldn't recommend them enough, if you want any sort of help with your GMAT/GRE.

Had a amazing experience with TestCrackers. These guys are making GMAT prep so much easy so it does not feel like a daunting task. This program is worth trying for anyone serious about prep and wants to see significant improvement in their score and performance. Class size is small and all Teachers are very supportive and give special attention whenever you need help.

Worthwhile course for GRE and GMAT
TestCrackers is great! The teachers worked hard to make sure we understood the techniques and took the time to explain difficult concepts, regularly checking in on our progress. I especially appreciated all the practice materials they provided, since I learn best by doing. I felt much more prepared for the GRE after this course.

The teachers here are excellent
The teachers here are excellent! I took a GMAT course there in 2019 and the material and coaching they provide is very helpful. They also have a good support system outside of class (Q/A sessions on weekends) where you can ask questions from your homework. I thoroughly enjoyed studying here.

Test Crackers GRE prep course helped me to get into UPenn! I enrolled in both the verbal and quant courses and was able to improve my score by 9 points in each section. I highly recommend Test Crackers, they made the whole GRE thing less daunting for me.

Best Test Prep
Yuri was the best GRE instructor. I had 1:1 coaching with him prior to taking my exam. He was extremely professional, knowledgable and prepared me very well for the exam. I highly recommend the whole team at TestCrackers!

Recommend Yuri + Seth's Coaching!
Took a TestCrackers course a few years back and felt that Yuri / Seth's tips and tricks helped me learn how best to take the GMAT. Ended up with a 750+ thanks to their help!

Testcrackers is AWESOME!
Testcrackers is AWESOME! I took the GMAT quant class with Andrew and verbal class with Kirk at Testcrackers. I received study materials on the day I started classes and had access to unlimited books from the library. They scheduled virtual office hours every week (outside of class hours) to help with questions.The class is small (12 people), so we received individual attention. Besides, Andrew & Kirk did a fantastic job at engaging the class. Their tips and pointers in both quant and verbal really made a difference in-terms of saving valuable time on the GMAT. We also had short 5 minute breaks at the end of every hour to make sure the class recharged.Overall I couldn't have asked for a better experience for my GMAT study class. Thanks to Andrew and Kirk, I'm going to my dream school (The Wharton School). I'd highly recommend Testcrackers for anyone who is getting started with the GMAT prep and needs a structured study routine.

Great experience!
Yuri and Seth are fantastic. I was able to improve my GRE score and get into my desired graduate program with their help. Everything about TestCrackers has a personalized touch. They provide materials no one else does. Go with them, not one of those big generic test prep companies. I would highly recommend to anyone taking the GRE! Thank you!

TestCrackers is awesome!!
TestCrackers is awesome!!! I had a great experience taking their classes in both the SF and East Bay locations. I found all the instructors to be incredibly responsive and they all seemed to care deeply both about my goals and progress in the course. The content they present really helps sift through some dense material. If I could do it all over again, I would have definitely wanted to be as shored up as possible on my GRE vocabulary...you need a good chunk of time to get all these crazy words under your belt, don't rush it/cram!
Jennifer Butterfoss
Definitely worth it
I had an amazing experience with TestCrackers. I attended the GMAT test courses and when I passed the test one month later I ended up with an even better grade than the one I was aiming for! I should definitely thank the professor and the classmates for this.

Great Value and Tricks!
Had a great experience with TestCrackers, they taught me a lot of great time saving tricks with the GRE they made me confident in when to skip a question and when to double down.

Isaac is a phenomenal teacher that prepared me for my first GMAT exam. The TestCrackers team is friendly, smart, and accommodating. Isaac always made me feel welcome in class and like I could ask any question without feeling uncomfortable. I would highly recommend TestCrackers to anyone who is looking to hit their target GMAT score!

Couldn't recommend TestCrackers enough.
Couldn't recommend TestCrackers enough.I graduated from college in '14, and so since I am only now applying for grad school in '18, I felt it was in my best interest to take some Verbal + Quant courses to freshen up before I took the GRE. The results speak for themselves, folks.I read lots of great reviews on yelp for TestCrackers in general, but when choosing teachers I just went with the courses that fit into my 9-5 work schedule, and luckily both teachers were fab. I took Verbal with Kirk and Quant with Marty (Martin).Kirk Schuler helped me bring my decent verbal score of 150 all the way up to 170 by the end of the course. She taught me to think like the test (I'm not traditionally a good standardized test-taker), and that seriously made all the difference. For those new to the GRE: the Verbal section is really unique in how it poses questions and prompts essays. I was an English Major in school, so I was used to responding in a certain way. Kirk taught me how to unlock the "coded" language of the test which 100% prepared me for the real deal. She was also just a cool person to talk to, and knowing how much I wanted to smash the Verbal test, she did all that she could to encourage me towards that goal.As an English Major in school, Quant was then obviously my weak point. Marty Cinke was seriously the nicest guy/teacher--he clearly genuinely loves math (or he fooled me well, ha) and cares about each of his students. Even when the course ended he made sure we knew we could reach out for any help we might need preparing. He wants you to do well, and you get out of his class what you put in. I can't say I ultimately did as well on Quant as I did on Verbal, but I really believe Marty did the best he could with what little math talent I had to offer.If you want to kill your GRE, TestCrackers is great--just be warned that just showing up in class isn't going to get you there. These teachers give you the tools you need to study the right way, and the rest is up to you.Thanks Kirk + Marty!

Not your average tutoring
I initially took a TestCrackers GRE prep class (quantitative section) in 2015 when applying for graduate school. I was able to increase my quant score and I got into my top choice programs and top programs in the country for my discipline. I wanted to try to increase my GRE scores once again for Ph.D. apps in 2019. My instructor was kind, attentive, and funny ,the homework/helpful booklet was dependable yet challenging, and I increased my quant score once again. I received acceptances with funding offers to 2 out of 5 of the Ph.D. programs that I applied to and one waitlist offer to another (#covid). All programs are some of the top programs in the country. They say that a grad school application is a bit like a flower bouquet when it comes to components, and TestCrackers helped me feel confident with the GRE stem.

Fantastic GMAT Prep
I was a TestCrackers student in Santa Clara, CA and took both in-person and online GMAT Quant and Verbal classes. Seth, Anisa, and Yuri are experts in GMAT prep and they truly care about your learning during and after you take classes with them. Both the in-person and online group classes are very personal due to the small group sizes, and the instructors constantly keep you engaged during lessons. I initially wanted to have private tutoring before finding TestCrackers, but immediately realized I made a better choice in my first class. The classroom environment was very useful because the other students asked the questions I didn't know I had, and everyone's different perspective helped me consider questions through different angles, which is what GMAT wants you to do. At the end of my journey, I took the GMAT online, and received 50 on Quant, 40 on Verbal, and 8 on IR for a 740 total score. I found TestCrackers' study guide very useful during my preparation; keeping track of my progress was extremely simple thanks to the tools and guidance TestCrackers provided me. Once you become a student at TestCrackers, you get limitless access to basically all the questions out there for GMAT (by limitless, I literally mean limitless, they have all the books in their library, and you can take them whenever you want to).I took Quant with Andrew, and Verbal with Kirk and Anisa. All my instructors were truly friendly, supportive, and experts in their fields. I took Verbal twice due to my initial GMAT score (690 total, 50 Quant, 34 Verbal), but I couldn't have received a 40 on Verbal without Anisa or Kirk. Kirk helped me with my Verbal foundation, and Anisa strengthened this base. I'm an engineer so my Quant foundation was already strong, but taking the Verbal class from 2 different experts was honestly very rewarding, especially since English is not my native language. If you are considering taking GMAT or GRE, TestCrackers IS the right place for you. Expert instructors, fantastic study guides, limitless resources, and smiling faces are what you will be getting when you sign up with TestCrackers. If you combine all these resources with consistent studying and a goal oriented mind, I am positive you can achieve the score you want. I'm grateful for TestCrackers.

Highly encourage anyone considering TestCrackers to go for it
I went into TestCrackers with high expectations and they managed to exceed them! I could not have been happier with my choice. I took a GRE Quant course with Yuri and Verbal with Anisa. There are a couple things that set TestCrackers apart for me.1) Fun, long-term learning: Both found ways to make the courses fun. TestCrackers does not just focus on the content of exams, but also unique techniques for learning and focus that make a big difference in scores. While I took the test a few months ago and already forget content, these techniques stuck with me and will make me a better student for life.2) Personal attention, even in a class format: I was amazed by how Anisa and Yuri made themselves accessible for help outside of the classroom. As it got closer to the test date, they helped me with a personalized study plan to address my areas of weakness. I had been stuck for weeks and this really helped boost my score. It was also very encouraging and motivating to see how invested they were in my success.Highly encourage anyone considering TestCrackers to go for it.

I took the TestCrackers GRE quant course in Oakland, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! I felt that my general test taking skills improved and my confidence going into the test was much higher. I had previously just tried to study on my own, and re-learning high school math is easy enough, but the skills learned in TestCrackers were above and beyond what I even knew I needed for the test. PS-I am currently in my first semester of grad school at my top choice school. So thank you TestCrackers!

TestCrackers helped me get a great score on my GRE. I hadn't taken a math class in over 10 years but they made the quantitative section easy and understandable. When I started, the class it was in person but moved online due to the pandemic. The online teaching was just as interactive as the in person because of the small class size.
