Sherpa Prep is quite simply top notch. I came to Sherpa after I took the GRE once using self-study and didn't get the scores I needed to be applicable for the programs I was aiming for. The instruction Sherpa provided cuts through the noise of technicalities and gets straight to what works, and what produces higher scores. The instruction is clear, well-paced, and the entire curriculum is set up to get you in super sharp shape by the end of the class (follow all their suggested study timeframes!) The teachers as well as the admin side of Sherpa Prep are super responsive on email and always provide clear responses. Additionally, Sherpa instructors were extremely insightful in what resources in the world of GRE prep are helpful, and which ones are not. There insights are well directed and from my experiences totally accurate. The preparation was holistic - this was a huge factor for me and made a world of difference as the immediate tone of the course was not just giving you a couple tricks for the “game” that is the GRE, but instead giving you the framework to take on any problem that comes your way. Sherpa instructors also start by asking the bigger questions, asking you to think about how you are planning to structure the next 2-3 months of your time and your mind to set yourself up for as much success as possible. The instruction is tiered - Sherpa instructors flag the different content levels according to the grade you are aiming for. This is helpful in studying because you can determine how to focus your study time for maximum impact. The materials – from the books to the Math bibles, to the vocab lists, to the apps – provide a very robust source of content for practice. The Sherpa Math app is a godsend. You can take the quizzes at the end of each chapter which time how long it takes you to finish the problem. This helped me trust in my personal pace so that on test day I didn't even feel the need to hide the clock (the clock was one of the biggest stressors for me). I am sure all the instructors are great but I have make a shout out to Tae. He always went the extra mile (even sharing a dope playlist for the day of the exam to get pumped up which turned out to be magical for me to get my nerves in check!). Also, his descriptions of the problems were always clean, clear, simple, and focused on methodically attacking a problem. His teaching helped me transform my thinking from if I could even solve the problem to how could I solve it best. Sherpa got me in a place to confidently submit applications to my most competitive programs! Best course on the market, don’t even think twice about Sherpa if you are in the DMV area and need a GRE prep course.
