CRACKVERBAL EDUTECH PVT LTD

CrackVerbal was conceived with the same intention as most startups â?? â??to build a better mousetrapâ??.

Our founder, Arun Jagannathan, had been training students for GMAT, GRE and CAT at various test-prep companies for many years. However, he was frustrated at teaching preparatory courses designed for Americans to an Indian audience. So in 2006, he started CrackVerbal to teach Indians in a unique way that made sense to them.

Since our inception a decade ago, we have rapidly evolved into a leading test-prep company, focusing on the entire application journey â?? from the time students start preparing for the GMAT/GRE, to the time they get into a program of their choice.

Why we excel at what we do

At CrackVerbal, we believe that keeping the student at the core of our efforts will be the only way to ensure our success. Whether it be our GRE flashcards, our exclusive student forum, or the fact that our enterprising teachers took to technology early in the game & started taking online classes â?? we have always put the needs of our students first.

Early on, realising that Indian students struggle to ace standardised tests such as the GMAT & the GRE because typical training programs for these tests cater to a native English population, we created a radically unique set of techniques specifically for Indian students.

We pride ourselves on having a very high net promoter score â?? almost 70% of students who join CrackVerbal are those who have heard about us from other students.

We are extremely proud of our 3000+ strong family of students living their dream of pursuing a world-class education from top schools across the globe!

What differentiates us

We ensure that you are taught only by the finest trainers in the industry.
Our instructors donâ??t teach English or Math. They teach the test i.e. GMAT / GRE.

We have a very selective process & rigorous training for instructors. Typically 1 out of 10 people who apply for a faculty position at CrackVerbal make the cut â?? many of whom have scored in the 99th %ile of the GMAT / GRE, or have earned their spurs from top schools such as ISB, Oxford, and Duke, to name a few.

We pay two times higher than the industry average to ensure we attract and retain the best quality faculty at CrackVerbal. Our training process is rigorous too â?? including attending live sessions, individual session debriefs with Arun, mock sessions, and watching over 50+ hours of training videos. Typically only 1 out of every 3 who qualify make it through this stage.


Student Success Stories

Neeraj Kakkar| GMAT 770| Wharton School of Business
CrackVerbal was instrumental in helping me secure a good GMAT score! Their personalized attention to every student particularly played an important role in my prep for the exam. The faculty would set aside time to brainstorm certain tricky questions that further opened up other areas of discussion. The peer group was also actively involved in the discussion forums which led to solving new questions. Post class support especially is worth mentioning as they ensure that all the tests, quizzes etc are being done regularly by students before his / her exam date.

The CrackVerbal Essay Writing workshop really helped to put things in perspective and gave me a framework to work with, it gave me a lot of direction. Before that I had no direction and no idea where to begin. Now, with 5 MBA admits, am I glad I made that decision!

Lakshya Sharma | GRE 323
The classes at CrackVerbal were very interactive. There was a lot of opinion exchange between the students and the instructor, and every studentâ??s doubts were cleared in class. A question would be looked at from different approaches until the right one to arrive at the answer was found. CrackVerbalâ??s flashcards helped in a great way when it came to learning vocabulary. They are not like other institutions; they keep a tab on your learning and ensure that you get that personal approach towards your prep. The instructors were also readily available before and after classes to solve any doubts.

Raghavan | GRE 323
CrackVerbal started out by demystifying the whole process and their Quant Sessions gave me a great boost in confidence. Owing to some preparedness in Verbal I was a bit overconfident and my mock scores reflected that. The academic team was always with me on the process of optimizing my score and helped with some timely and incisive advice on how to be better continuously. Apart from the theory itself Crackverbal also helped me get a strategy ready to tackle the exam, which in my opinion is more important than the theory itself. On the whole, their support team were prompt in their help, the Quant professors would reply to even the silliest of my doubts at ungodly hours and the Verbal team is just fantastic. The material they provide helped me gauge my level quite accurately too. Thank you for all your help Team Crackverbal!"

Nikhil Raina | GRE: 326
The Teacher to Student ratio is great and hence you get individual attention. The trainers were very helpful and readily available. They have in-depth knowledge and you can indulge in immensely beneficial discussions.The material is very close to the real questions you see on the exam. But the best thing has to be the flashcards! They are very helpful. I only wish there were more than 500 :-)

Aarabi Madhavan | GRE: 323
I took my GRE recently and I scored 323 â?? 160 v and 163 Q. Yay! Thanks CV for helping me get a good score in verbal. The instructors were very clear in explaining what I was doing wrong and how I should improve. The personalized GRE verbal session was very well managed. Thank you once again for helping :) Kudos to the CrackVerbal Team!

Mohnish Prasanna | GRE: 325
A main factor that differentiates CrackVerbal from its competitors is their focus on Vocabulary â?? take for instance their innovative flashcards that make vocabulary building fun and easy! It laid a good platform for me to start learning the words and also laid the foundation for developing my vocabulary beyond the flashcards by giving me the required confidence and technique to remember the words. All faculty are very supportive and were readily available to explain my queries anytime. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend CrackVerbal to everyone.
