Before working with Vinay, I had taken a GMAT prep course and attempted to continue studies independently. Yet, I still felt unprepared for the test; I had been consistently scoring in the mid-600s and felt like I was coming up against a wall. Thankfully, Vinay was the solution to my problem and the reason for my 110-point score increase. My 750 would not have been possible without Vinay's GMAT techniques, strategies, and curriculum. In addition to his tricks and shortcuts, his breakdown of question types and step-by-step explanations of difficult problems put me at ease with the material. Vinay is, by far, an expert, and I thank him for my GMAT success.

Talented, Motivating Coach
Vinay is a wonderful, friendly tutor. He was a huge asset to me during my application process, and I ended up getting a scholarship at a top Ivy League school.
Firstly, Vinay is truly a GMAT Genius. He can look at a question and think of incredibly fast ways to conquer the question. He knows his stuff. He used to be the head tutor of a large GMAT tutoring chain.
There are subtleties that I pick up working with an expert, for example how he organizes his questions, and things he immediately thinks of when he sees certain problems.
He helped me find my weak areas and guides me on how to study efficiently to maximize the results of my efforts. He is there to answer my questions via e-mail even when we are not working together.
Vinay doesn't waste any of the time you schedule with him. He comes ready to make sure you get your money's worth of tutoring, sometimes even staying later than our designated time.
My score has improved over 100 points working with Vinay. I wouldn't go with anybody else after having worked with him!

Getting a good score on GMAT is hard …
Getting a good score on GMAT is hard but finding a good tutor felt even harder for me until I met Vinay. He is very articulate, patient and skillful in explaining and solving all kinds of questions. I would gladly recommend him to anyone planning on getting a fantastic GMAT score!

One of the best instructors out there
One of the best instructors out there! Knows all the tricks of GMAT and tailors the preparation to your specific needs quite efficiently.
And its not only GMAT prep that you pay for... he goes beyond hourly GMAT preparation and mentors you through the long process of b school applications.
You will develop a very traditional teacher-pupil relationship working with Vinay.. and it is completely worth it.

GMAT Genius is Amazing!
I had worked with Vinay for a few months and the improvement I saw on my GMAT scores was amazing! I had worked with other 'GMAT prep programs' and was not seeing the results I wanted. As soon as I started working with Vinay, I looked at the test in an entirely new way. His strategy is unique and allows you to focus on what's important. He knows every trick in the book! I cannot recommend GMAT Genius enough, it truly is a unique and effective way of learning.

Vinay has been a God-send
Vinay has been a God-send. I first took the GMAT without much preparation, assuming that as a normally decent test taker, I might hit a stroke of luck and get the minimum score I was aiming for (a 700). I ended up scoring a 660, with a dismal 30 on Verbal, and was in full-on panic mode. I only had one more shot to take the test and three weeks to prepare, since I made the hasty decision to apply to business school very close to the deadline. Thankfully, I reached out to Vinay.
I was a bit hesitant since I had never done online classes, but decided to give him a shot because of our initial session. In this initial session, he reviewed my Enhanced Score Report and was able to quickly pinpoint my weaknesses and create an effective and efficient study plan for me. He went above and beyond, and worked around my very busy schedule in which I was juggling 50-60 hour work weeks in a demanding field. He was willing to take time to answer my emails with any practice problems or questions I came across, and came up with excellent tactics for tackling the issues I had with the test (time management, strategy for Sentence Correction, and quicker, more effective ways to solve math problems).
He is passionate about his work, and truly did an amazing job getting me to focus on the right areas. He believes in his students, and pushed me to aim for a higher score, refusing to let me settle with a Quant score under 50. In 10 short hours, over the course of 3 weeks, he was able to help me pull my score up to a 740.

The True GMAT Genius
Vinay is the true GMAT genius and was instrumental in helping me reach my desired score. The GMAT preparation process is daunting with endless options for resources and strategies available, and through experience, I learned that a one size fits all strategy does not optimize scores. Vinay tailors his sessions to his client's weaknesses and strengths and creates a game plan to most effectively hit his client's goals. His knowledge of the test is second to none, and his tactics on how to approach time management and difficult questions are paramount on test days. His ability to explain difficult questions in a clear concise manner and tackle new approaches to Critical Reasoning and Data Sufficiency questions helped me achieve a 60 point improvement from the first time I took the test.
