GMAT Tutor NYC - Bob Chaparala - New York, New York

Bob is very invested in his students and genuinely cares about each person getting a good score. I was working for months to get a 655+ on the GMAT Focus and couldn't break that ceiling. Bob and I weren't doing sessions at this point anymore, but he followed up with me anyways to see how my test prep was going. I really thought about giving up, thinking I could not get a high score, but Bob encouraged me to take the test one more time and I scored way beyond my target. Bob truly cares about each of his students.

I have been being tutored by Bob for 1.5 months and have improved my score to 720 from the 590 I originally scored on the GMAT. He provides 100 PS and DS problems on each topic tested on the GMAT that we work together in each session that have helped me master each concept. I no longer panic when I look at a GMAT math question - Bob has taught me to identify each type of problem and then utilize a specific strategy to complete it. I came to Bob very disheartened by my low score after taking a prep class and studying independently for 3 months. I honestly did not think I could learn the GMAT math, but now I feel confident with each topic! I had not taken a math class in 7 years, but Bob's tutoring has sharpened my analytical skills and taught me new concepts I didn't think I could learn after being out of the classroom for several years. I highly recommend investing the time and money to be tutored by Bob. I wish I had not wasted my time and money on a prep class and had used Bob's individualized tutoring service from the beginning! I work full time, and Bob is very accommodating of my schedule. We work together at night, as early in the morning as 6 AM, and on weekends. Bob genuinely cares about his students, and he provides me encouragement each step of the way. My scaled score on my actual GMAT exam prior to becoming his student was very low (32), and he helped me improve my practice test score to 45 - outscoring my verbal score! Being tutored by Bob will pay dividends when applying to business schools, and I highly recommend investing in yourself by using his tutoring service! Before my original GMAT exam, I was anxiety-ridden over the process and felt so defeated after my attempt at the exam, but I feel the skills he has taught me in our sessions and repetition of each concept have prepared me to have a successful, confident GMAT experience.

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Bob throughout the GMAT prep process. Bob is truly one of a kind. Before we started working together, I took a Manhattan Prep course for the new GMAT Focus exam and struggled considerably in the Quant section (which surprised me, given that math was always one of my stronger subjects in school). I could not manage to score higher than the 58th percentile on practice tests. After working with Bob for 3 months, however, my Quant score on the real exam landed in the 94th percentile. Moreover, my overall score improved by exactly 100 points. Bob has years and years of experience and knows this test inside out. With a bank of THOUSANDS of practice questions, he exposes you to EVERY single question type you might encounter on the exam. On top of that, Bob is one of the most caring people I've worked with and is so invested in his students. In the beginning, when I first looked into GMAT prep courses and tutors, I felt overwhelmed by every program claiming to be "the best". It was hard to know exactly who to believe. But I can now assure you: Bob is just that. Working with him was the best investment I could have made, both in myself and in my future.

Bob is the best! Before I met Bob, I had trouble improving upon my 660 official GMAT score. No matter how much I studied the concepts, I just could not score anything higher than a 660 on my practice tests. After spending two months of tutoring with Bob, I'm happy to say that I scored a 700 on my official GMAT last weekend (4.24.2021).

Throughout my learning experience with Bob, he was very professional and knowledgeable about all Quant concepts on the test. He helped me master key concepts that no doubt helped me get that 700 score. Bob was also flexible with his schedule, and was willing to accommodate whatever time worked best for me. I highly recommend Bob for people who are currently in the ~600 GMAT range, and are looking to get a 700+ score on their GMAT.

Bob is an amazing tutor that helped improve my GMAT score dramatically. My Quant skills improved so much with his help. Bob helped me to solve complex math problems using quick methods by showing me a lot of math tricks to save time. For each math concept, he gave over 100 practice problems as homework to help me master the concept. Whenever a concept was difficult for me to grasp, he worked with me to understand the topic, and would give me extra problems to work through.
Bob designed the course work based on my strengths and weaknesses. His materials are well organized and divided into medium difficulty to hard. He stresses the importance of focus and building stamina for the 3 hour GMAT test to ensure success. He helped to build that stamina while encouraging and motivating me in each step of my GMAT prep. Bob is also very flexible with his student's schedules. He understands that his students are busy, and will work with them to meet very early in the morning or late at night to accommodate their schedules. I highly recommend Bob's services to all of those who want to achieve success on the GMAT.

Each hour with Bob is worth every penny. If you follow his instructions you should be able to bump your quantitative score above a 43-45.

I could not be happier with my experience working with Bob. He only works with one student at a time to better understand your specific needs. He is patient and understands that people learn these complex math concepts at different speeds. Bob not only teaches you the math but also different test taking strategies that I have seen first hand on the actual GMAT test.

I highly recommend going to Bob for GMAT tutoring. I’ve been going to him for several months now and I’m happy to say that my quant skills have improved significantly. He customizes his approach so that I’m mastering the concepts which I need to learn most. Bob gives me over 100 questions for homework and will always give me more problem sets if I ask. His materials are organized well and engaging - I actually look forward to doing the homework and going to sessions because it’s fun! Thank you Bob for making me feel confident in my ability to do well on the test!

If anyone is looking for GMAT Tutor in New York Bob is the one you have to go for. He helped me to get a GMAT score I needed. GMAT Quant section was a challenge. Thanks to Bob, I did it with the help of Bob. I thought to give up GMAT after looking into my test scores before meeting him. But after meeting Bob and got tutored by him I just wondered why didn't I go to him before. He taught me many techniques to solve the problem in less than a minute and some cases in a few seconds. And coming to his personality he is a very nice person and he is always approachable to his students whenever they needed him. His patience level and calmness were very high. Such an amazing person he was.
