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!

Enrolling with Bell Curves was absolutely one of the best choices I made regarding my business school applications. I was able to raise my score from a 640 to a 710! My instructor quickly and effectively determined my areas of weakness using Bell Curves’ innovative diagnostic tools. The Bell Curves curriculum is content-focused, which allowed me to truly understand the GMAT rather than try to game the system. If you want to maximize your return on investment, sign up with Bell Curves!

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.

Bell Curves personal tutoring not only fit my unpredictable schedule but it gave me the confidence I needed to reach my goal and score a 640 on the GMAT! Thanks to Bell Curves I was just admitted to the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth.

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 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.

It's all over!!! I got a 750!!! Sooooo happy! Couldn’t have done it without all of your help. The class was amazing...your advice, insight and feedback were priceless. The best money I’ve ever spent. Thanks so much!

Thank you for everything that you did to help me. I was accepted to Georgetown, Cornell, Rotman, Babson, and IESE. I am very happy! I decided to move to Cornell and am getting ready to do so!

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

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!

Thank you for sticking by me, and for pushing me to do better. The Bell Curves team has been an invaluable asset. Not only have I gotten THE BEST assistance preparing for the GMAT, but I’ve also gotten help with other facets relevant to the B-School process. Thank you Maestro and the Bell Curves Team!

I have been highly recommending Bell Curves to friends and prospective students.

After 3 years of off and on studying, I finally beat the GMAT with a 160-point improvement! The best decision I made over the course of those 3 years was hiring Ajani Burrell to be my tutor. He taught me the ins and outs of the GMAT, from how to attack Data Sufficiency questions to how to effectively read Sentence Correction and Critical Reasoning questions. Most importantly, Ajani helped me to adjust my ingrained approach to each type of question so that I would be most effective in understanding and correctly answering the question. Ajani is the man! For anyone that's willing to work, Ajani will be your greatest asset. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a great tutor. Thank you Ajani! Thank you Bellcurves!

I think one of the concepts most students overlook and undervalue when it comes to practice and studying is consistency. Getting my target score time and time again not only showed improvement, but also helped build a confidence I could draw on come test day and throughout the application process, which was invaluable. My tutor and I were able to develop a steady, balanced study strategy that was successful because it fit my needs and work style. In three months, I was able to improve my score by 70 points, even after having broken the 600-mark. So I'd like to thank my tutor for his patience, flexibility, resolve and encouragement. It's not always about studying hard, but studying smart.

Thank you so much! I feel like I have a game plan. The ten pages I did on perms and combs from the Quant manual have laid out quite a simple and clear foundation, so I look forward to my GMAT challenge!

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.

Studying for the GMAT was a long and often a trying journey for me. However, being on the other end of the process now, I see why people say that the key to success is consistency and perseverance. One-on-one tutoring helped me to hone in on gaps in both my knowledge and test taking strategy. Being able to identify and fill in these gaps gave me the confidence to achieve my goal score.
