“I didn’t have much time to prepare for the GRE, and Magoosh made it possible for me to succeed on the test in a short period of time. I looked at Kaplan GRE, Barron’s, and Princeton Review products, and I can confidently say that Magoosh was definitely the best.”

8 of 15I’m magooshing it
Its surprisingly affective, i complete a level, then come back to it a while later expecting to have forgotten everything but find that i still remember jt all.
Like with Chat they definitely can write a better iOS app. Some of the sounding for flash cards does not work.
It’s good but I wish that it gave you actual definitions and not only examples because I REALLY need to improve my vocabulary. So…. 3 stars
I like to test myself every morning. This app is wonderful vocabulary builder! The more words you know the more you’ll grow. Highly recommend and it’s fun.
Some of the vocab words seem to be mislabeled, incorrectly defined, or have multiple meanings that could make more than one answer correct. It would be helpful if there were a “all of the above” option or a way to accept multiple answers as correct. It’s frustrating to get answers incorrectly when the answer selected can also be correct. This can make the experience very obnoxious, and is somewhat misleading.
I did learn some words that I still use today (downloaded about two or so years ago) from doing it honestly not even that often. I think my main problem is just that it really does force you to just memorize the exact phrase/synonym you need to associate with each word. And often times, the options will be misleading. I just uninstalled because I got a word where “necessary” and “important” were both two different options for its meaning. It’s just too “exact” I guess. I also feel like there should be options for more examples and also a learning mode where you can just click through the different words with their definitions not in a quiz-like way.
This has been helpful for me even starting at high school level, and I have my Masters 😂 Highly recommend!
