Why? 1) Every instructor has a 99th percentile score and 2 or more years of teaching experience before they start at Manhattan Prep. Not only will your instructor have a perfect (or near-perfect) score, but all of his or her colleagues have perfect scores. They're 2) The company invests over $5,000 training every teacher before they're allowed to teach in the classroom. I earned maybe 500 bucks training for my first test prep gig at one of the big companies. 3) They pay their teachers enough so they actually care about their students. I can pay my rent teaching 3 hours a week for this company, so I make sure that my students are happy.

I am officially enrolled in the MBA program of my dreams at Yale and I can't tell you how critical…read moreit was for me to work with Chris Peckover at Manhattan Prep. 1 year ago, I decided to study for the GMAT on my own. I was very dedicated and studied EVERY day for a total of 125+ hours over the course of a few months. I practiced problems from the Official Guide. I completed the Verbal and Quant GMAT study guides front to back...twice. Then, I took the test. I scored nowhere near where I needed to be. I was completely devastated. I only had 1.5 months to get my quant score up and I was a severely sleep deprived new mom. Did I mention I was only interested in applying to one MBA program? No pressure, right? I decided to work with a private tutor and went with the best of the best: Chris at Manhattan GMAT. He worked around my schedule and within one session, he knew my study style and targeted my weaknesses. But most importantly, he was able to deliver custom-tailored strategies in a fun and memorable way. He created a proprietary system to zero in on my problem areas to help me improve your score in the most efficient manner. Long story short, I dramatically improved my score quickly and was accepted by my first and only choice school! I couldn't have done it alone and am forever grateful to Chris. The GMAT is not an IQ test. It's all about strategy so work with someone who knows them inside and out. Go with Chris!

I spent…read moreover a year studying on my own with Gregmat, Magoosh, Kaplan and ETS PowerPrep and I just wasn't getting anywhere as far as progress goes. It felt like there were too many videos to watch, too many areas to study and I felt overwhelmed and unmotivated. At 38 years old, the last math class I had taken was over 15 years ago, so it was a pain relearning all the math they test on Quant. Andrew broke down which areas were not tested as often and let the class know which topics to study on their own (due to class time restraints) if they were trying to score 320 and higher, which I very much appreciated. I only need a 290 for a program that requires that for admissions. The first GRE I took in August, 2025 was 279 (141V, 138Q) with practice tests ranging in the 270-280's. Today, I scored 294 (147V, 147Q), with practice tests ranging from 289-302. I studied 3-6 hours a day, 4-6 times a week (homework included) for two months to obtain this score, which I am very happy with. I'm sure I could have scored higher if I studied a bit more and did more homework. If you are thinking about taking their prep course, take the next step in making the investment because it is so worth it!!!

Everyone at Mathnasium is so nice. The time, the care and the overall ethics they take in making my…read moreson feel comfortable and valued is something I appreciate beyond words. My son used to love school and love math. He excelled in it until he got a teacher who completely destroyed his self confidence which resulted in him developing a fear and unworthiness. It was awful. He started having a real emotional and physical reaction when it came time to do math and math homework so he just gave up. Instead of his teacher helping him, she reprimanded him which only made it worse. I found Mathnasium wth the hope they would find a way to connect with my child and give him the confidence he needed to shine again. I expected it to take some time but literally after the first session, his little spark was reignited into a flame that has been glowing ever since. His excitement for math is back, he looks forward to going to Mathnasium every week and I can't wait to see what the next few months bring in his little joirney to math greatness! Thank you to everyone at Mathnasium!

I completed 10 hours of private instruction with Dan Patinkin upon the enthusiastic recommendation…read moreof a personal friend, who had in turn been enthusiastically recommended by both of her MBA bosses. I would like to keep the enthusiastic chain of recommendation momentum going! Obviously, everyone's results will vary depending on what their strength and weaknesses are, and their individual learning styles. So I'll just keep this to my personal experience. I began studying for the GMAT in August of 2017. I work in non-profits and studied the liberal arts; the last time I did math was AP Stats in high school and I never took anything more advanced than Algebra 2. Thinking about standardized testing, let alone math, still makes my heart race. From the get-go, I knew my work with Dan would be pretty much exclusively dedicated to quant, and that's partially why it was important to me to spring for personal tutoring rather than a class. Wouldn't have made sense to spend my precious time and money practicing verbal, since I desperately needed extra support with math. Manhattan's attention to detail, and that of Dan specifically, helped me transform over the space of a few short months. Don't get me wrong, you have to work a lot.... like 10-15 hours per week for 4+ months... but for me, the hardest part of studying has always been knowing exactly WHERE to focus my efforts, and that's what Manhattan/Dan took care of for me. So all I had to do, thanks to his help, was.... practice. At one point, I scored a 490 on a practice test and CRIED. I am proud to say that last month, I sat for my very first (and final!) GMAT in December 2017 and scored a 720 -- 46 Q (WAY above my target) and 44 V! I wouldn't have been able to make a fraction of these gains -- let alone keep my cool -- if it weren't for Dan's insight, generosity, and encouragement. Thank you!

I had quite a long journey with the GMAT, which spanned over the period of about a year and a half…read more Initially, I took the GRE, and only gave myself about 5 weeks to study for the exam. I reached out to Manhattan Prep to schedule some tutoring time since I was under the gun and I wanted to maximize my learning time. My expectations were far exceeded with Chris Berman. Not only does he know the test inside and out, but after reviewing my strengths and weaknesses he quickly asserted that I should consider taking the GMAT instead of the GRE. I took a practice test cold and scored slightly above what I was scoring on the GRE practice tests, which I was familiar with. Fast forward to a year later, I went to Chris again before taking the GMAT for the second time. The first time I took it, nerves got to me. Chris was so nice as to have an extensive email conversation with me after taking the exam to go over my scores and give me his thoughts, even though I hadn't gone to him in over a year. Knowing I was taking the exam again, I scheduled more time with Chris. I knew going to him to hone in on my weaknesses would give me confidence in an of itself, as well as increase my skill level on those question types I struggled with. I was again under the gun time-wise, and he was great in working with my schedule and making time for me. His ability to laser in on what each question type is really simplifies what you're looking for when you get each question. This helped me immensely with the critical reasoning, which I sometimes went around in circles with on the hard question types. More than this, Chris has a way of imparting wisdom in metaphors that stick with you. He noted my weaknesses and told me a few anecdotes and sayings that I literally repeated in my head on test day and made the difference between me staying on track time-wise and taking too long on certain questions (I tend to want to double/triple check that I have a question right, which you cannot do on the GMAT). Overall, it's not only Chris' ability to hone in on what you're weak in, but also his outlook on the test and his knowledge on strategy that really makes him invaluable. The private tutoring is an investment, but I couldn't have been happier with it. My initial practice test was a 620, the first exam I got a 640 (nerves) then I got a 700 the second time, which was my minimum goal score. If I had more time before applications, I would take it one more time to try to get in the 730 realm, but I'm happy to have gotten in my goal range, and Chris was crucial in getting me there. Go with him!
