Thank you Bell Curves for making my success on the GMAT a reality. I increased over 100 points since my prior official score. I broke into the 650+ range and scored over the 90 percentile on the verbal. Bell Curves filtered out the extra noise out there around the false GMAT tips and tricks. They provided structure on how to approach and deconstruct math and verbal questions so I always kept the 'real question asked' at the top of mind as I worked. Their approach to time management helped a lot, boosting my score 50 points once I adopted it. Their hands-on approach and emphasis on student participation helped me to understand the way the GMAT writers think and ask questions. I had personal tutoring as well. Third person observation of my errors and trends helped correct the way I studied and practiced for the GMAT. I highly recommend Bell Curves for your test prep.

I'd like to sing praises to Akil, Bell Curves and most of all HASHIM! I know I was a difficult student, but your headaches were not in vain! So far I've been accepted to Darden, Fuqua, Stern and Tuck!!!

You're a great teacher, Ajani. I wish I had went with Bellcurves earlier in the process. Thanks so much for all your help!

Bell Curves has been more than just a GMAT prep company for me. Not only did I receive expert GMAT training that helped increase my score by 90 points, but I also received helpful insights into the overall MBA application process. These insights helped me establish a framework in which I was able to successfully be admitted into two of the top worldwide MBA programs.

I worked with Ajani Burrell as a private tutor and he was extremely personable, patient, and encouraging. Even when I reached my lowest point in the studying process, Ajani continued to provide crucial guidance to help me push towards reaching my target score. In the end, Ajani and Bell Curve's ability to provide me with a more structured preparation process made all the difference. After trying 2 other GMAT prep companies, Ajani and Bell Curves provided exactly what I needed to break 700 on the GMAT.

By far the most important aspect for me was the additional 2-hour Question and Answer session that was offered free of charge every Tuesday. I was able to go over questions and concepts I struggled with. Jason taught most of the sessions and he is an absolute rock star. With class, the group Q&As, the one-on-one tutoring, and 24-hour email access, I don't think there was a quant concept that I didn't understand. As a result, my quant score jumped 16 points on my last test. Overall, I could not ask for a better team of people!

The intimate classroom environment facilitated networking and support among all involved. At a cost much less than that of many other GMAT prep companies, Bell Curves easily trumps other companies in value. I am extremely thankful for all that the Bell Curves staff has done to help me attain my goal of an MBA from a top institution!

Bell Curves Q&As are a wonderful component of the instruction, and allow a great source of additional guidance to help understand the tough questions. Thanks Bell Curves Team!

It was a pleasure working with you. You did a phenomenal job keeping me motivated and helping me to really grasp the quant concepts.

I can't thank the Bell Curves Team enough, especially one Akil Bello, for all their expertise, patience, and support. With their help I was able to conquer the GMAT to the tune of almost 300 points improvement!! They helped make all my hard work worthwhile. Thank you, Bell Curves!

I started my GMAT preparation with a course outside of Bell Curves. My main challenge was that the schedule went so quickly there was limited time for review during my work week. Bell Curves was very good about providing structure to fit my needs and after several disciplined months of study, I have successfully beat the GMAT!

I had pretty much given up on the GMAT after doing a full-length course and a few hours of tutoring with 2 other test prep companies. After bombing the GMAT my first time (500, Quant 27, < 20%), a tutor from one of the “top” test prep companies reasoned that math was not my forte and that I should focus solely on the verbal to increase my score. I soon realized that he was a waste of my time and money because not only was his advice crazy, we had no formal meeting place, so tutoring sessions at Starbucks weren’t really effective. Fast-forward to me walking into the BC office a total anxious wreck. I purchased tutoring hours and began working with Ajani, who, let me just say, is nothing short of amazing! After reviewing my work from just 1 practice test, he was able to identify my weaknesses and repeated mistakes. Ajani was super patient with me and never made me feel like the idiot I was making myself out to me. Even with my stupidest mistakes, he would find a takeaway point from it…AMAZING! The BC books and online material were also extremely helpful. From the books I learned new, but really simple and reliable ways to attack each question type. The online CAT quizzes and exams were the most realistic practice questions that I’ve seen. On my actual exam, for some of the questions, I was thinking, “oh…this is just like such and such question from the BC material.”One of my biggest hurdles was my fear of the exam; working with Ajani and practicing on my own with the BC material really helped overcome this fear and I walked into the exam feeling confident…for the most part. All in all, my BC experience was beyond worthwhile. I regret not starting my prep with them initially. I truly believe that I would not have been able to conquer the GMAT without them. Final score – 650…got the horrendous quant raw score up to 42.

I had literally tried everything before working with Ajani. I self studied, took a class, and hired a tutor, all to no avail. Ajani was my lucky charm. After working with him, I got the score that I needed to get into Stern, Columbia, Booth, and Cornell...I even got scholarship money!!!! Ajani is a gem and the Bell Curves method works!

My experience with Bell Curves' tutoring program was phenomenal! Having Aaliyah as my tutor allowed me to truly hone in on the skills I personally needed to develop in order to do well on the GMAT. Aaliyah was extremely flexible and encouraging during our tutoring sessions. Some days she was more of a coach than a tutor, but that was exactly what I needed to build my confidence and do well on the GMAT. Additionally, Aaliyah was very good at identifying my strengths and weaknesses upfront. Therefore she created a structured review plan that truly made a difference in my score. Due to my sessions with Aaliyah, I was accepted into the Kellogg School of Management's class of 2011, which was the school of my choice!
