What Our Students Are Saying

Margaret R.Executive Assessment Test Prep

"Working with Chris Gentry as my EA tutor was a valuable experience. His clear explanations, patience, and structured approach made even the challenging concepts feel manageable. What stood out most was how he provided numerous methods for solving quantitative problems more efficiently, which helped me approach the test with greater confidence. I also appreciated how he personalized each tutoring session to my strengths and weaknesses, making the sessions both effective and encouraging."

GMAT Executive Assessment FAQs

Anyone who feels comfortable with grammar and whose schools all accept the EA should strongly consider taking the EA. The EA has a crucial advantage over the GMAT (and the GRE): It isn't used in business school rankings. As a result, schools use the EA differently, as a threshold or baseline indicator: As long as you score at or above the school’s baseline level, you’re good. Unlike the GMAT and GRE, you don’t need a stratospheric score (though a higher score can still help for grants, fellowships, and scholarships).

The GMAT is 2 hours and 15 minutes long; the EA is 1.5 hours long. Both exams test almost the exact same content across three sections: Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, and a data-focused section that is called Data Insights on the GMAT and Integrated Reasoning on the EA. The only content difference: The EA tests grammar, while the GMAT does not. Both exams weigh all three sections equally when calculating your total score.

On the EA, you can skip around within part of a section or go back to questions that you have already answered. On the GMAT, you first have to answer all of the questions in order, but you can then review your problems at the end of each section and change up to three answers.

Whether you’re at the beginning of your EA journey or further along, our free Study Plan is designed to equip you with everything you need to get into the 150 range. The plan takes about 40 to 60 hours to complete. By dedicating 5 to 15 hours a week, you can expect to be test-ready in one to two months.

If you are aiming for a higher score or find yourself needing extra guidance at any point, our Performance & Strategy Sessions are here to help. You'll work 1-on-1 with an expert instructor to troubleshoot specific issues and streamline your path to your goal score.

Our tutoring process is highly customizable depending on the specific package you choose, ranging from a 2-hour session designed to troubleshoot a specific issue or build an independent study roadmap up to a 6-hour or 10-hour package for a more comprehensive dive into core concepts. Across all packages, the process generally starts with your tutor assessing your needs and creating a personalized study plan. During your sessions, you will focus on the topics and skills you need to improve the most. Between meetings, you will complete tailored homework and track your progress, with your tutor remaining available to answer any questions.

We help students balance their full-time jobs with EA prep by building a customized study plan that fits well into their busy schedules. Because time is so limited, our tutors focus heavily on efficiency, helping students cut down their overall prep time by studying only what matters to reach their specific goal score. We also help students map out a realistic study plan so they can maintain momentum without burning out.
