INTERACT GMAT COURSE vs SELF STUDY KIT

by LyaF556 Fri May 22, 2015 3:41 pm

Hello

I prefer to do self study with a Manhattan GMAT package. Could you please explain the added value that the INTERACT GMAT COURSE offers vs SELF STUDY KIT to be worth paying more or less $400 dlls more:
- I only identified that an additional 35+ interactive videos are added
- Are the online resources available for both for the same period? if not mistaken by reading other blogs it is for 6 months, except for CATS that are for one year.

Thank you.

I wish I could answer your questions, but I don't actually know the details of the different packages (this folder is for content questions about the GMAT - only teachers answer here). I'll ask our Student Services team to respond, but I also suggest that you either call 800.576.GMAT or send an email to gmat@manhattanprep.com, and that team will be more than happy to explain the differences between the two packages.

Good luck with your studies!

Hello,

Yes, the 35+ interactive lessons are the main difference between our Self Study Toolkit and the GMAT Interact program. The Interact program also includes a 30-minute game planning session with an instructor, which is not included with the Toolkit.

If you want to see what the Interact lessons are like, click the "Try It Free" button on this page: https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/prep/on-demand/

Our GMAT Interact program follows the same curriculum/syllabus as our live Complete Course in an on-demand, interactive format. Our live Complete Course meets once per week, for three hours, for a total of 9 sessions. The instruction students receive with the Complete Course is covered in the 35+ Interact lessons. Your Interact Program will organize your 35+ lessons into 9 "sessions," with homework to complete after each session. There are multiple lessons contained within each session, which you can watch individually, on-demand, at your own pace. GMAT Interact is convenient because it allows you to construct your own study timeline, and not necessarily adhere to the typical 9-week program.

Your initial access to your GMAT Interact online resources lasts for 6 months, and you have one free 180-day (6 month) extension, which you can apply anytime after your initial access expires. This allows you to take a break in your studies, if needed.

If you choose to purchase the Self Study Toolkit first (https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/stor ... y-toolkit/), you can always upgrade to GMAT Interact.

Feel free to reach out to Student Services directly at 800-576-4628, or gmat@manhattanprep.com if you have any questions!

Best,
Laura
