Mark Alan Robinson, MBA is by far one of the best tutors and mentors I’ve ever had. He truly cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He helped me believe in myself and push myself even in moments where I didn’t think I’d be capable of achieving success. He is constantly challenging you to grow and approach the problems in different ways. He makes every plan personal and tries to understand you as a person. He’s fantastic and I couldn’t recommend him enough, thanks to him I’ll be attending Rice University for my MBA this fall. He’s phenomenal and I couldn’t recommend him more! Morgan Dunn2020-07-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark was an incredible help for me with GMAT tutoring and my overall MBA application. It is obvious he is passionate about what he does and knows what he is doing. He always gave me helpful and heartfelt advice to think about in regard to my career and life in general. He helped improve my GMAT score 60 points. He has a more tailored approach to helping his students and never gives up on you! Now I’m on my way to a top 10 business school with scholarship! Thanks Mark!! Mark Rowland2020-06-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend MBAcademy. Mark is a great teacher who makes sure you understand not only the fundamentals of the GMAT but also the fine details. I worked with Mark for about 2 months and was impressed by his genuine desire to help all his students. I wish I studied with him sooner instead of taking multiple exams and trying to figure things out on my own. Thank you for all the help Mark! Oscar Vasco2018-12-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took an in-person GMAT course with Mark in the Fall of 2016. I had taken the GMAT three times and had failed to get a score that would make me competitive for top business schools. Once I took Mark's class, my test score went up by 100 points and I was able to get into a top 25 business school! I would have never done this without Mark's help. Mark makes studying for the GMAT a cinch, by breaking down complicated content into an easily digestible package. I would highly recommend taking any course that Mark teaches or endorses! Andres Bustos2018-05-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark is an incredible teacher who doesn't only do everything he can to improve your GMAT score, but also helps you throughout the entire admissions process and any other career advice you might need. I came in with an extremely low practice score and some other students came in with an extremely high practice score.... At the end of the course it was mutually agreed that we all improved significantly and that would not have been possible without Mark's style of teaching. He has a lot of experience with the GMAT and with teaching so you're able to learn how to really think like the Testmaker. What also sets him a part from any other teachers I met was his experience at a top MBA school and how he's able to really relate to your experience and how the GMAT will really prepare you for school. Mark keeps in touch with all his students after the course and is always readily available for any help you might need. TLTR: Take Mark as a GMAT professor. You will not regret it and your score will increase significantly. David Alderman2018-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took an in-person GMAT prep course with Mark for 6 weeks. I had taken the GMAT before but did not score what I wanted. I wanted retake the test and decided to take Mark's course to prepare. The course was more than expected and a great experience. Through Mark's teaching and mentorship, my score jumped 70 points hitting above 700! From the class, I found that I not only learned how to approach the GMAT differently, but also learned how to approach problems outside of the classroom in a different way. This was from Mark's unique teaching style that fits very well into the GMAT test. The GMAT tests more than knowledge and Mark plays to that in class. Furthermore, Mark cares for all his students. He was very involved in helping all those in the class reach their desired score and clearly was active in trying to be more than just a teacher who was seen for 3 hours twice a week. If you are considering taking a class for the GMAT, this is the way to go. There is a significant amount of work outside the classroom and ultimately it is up to you to put in the study time, but Mark will guide you down the right path to get you were you want to be. It was well worth my time and money to take the MBAcademy class, and I would recommend Mark to anyone I know studying for the GMAT. Takeya Cloud2018-04-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took an in-class GMAT course with Mark. My GMAT score increased 160 points after my class with him. My quant score went from a 35 to a 49. Here are some key take aways on fully maximizing your time with Mark: 1. Take the time to truly understand the foundations of verbal and/or quant. As an engineer, I found I struggled the most with verbal, specifically sentence correction. It wasn't until after a LOT of bad study sessions where I had to humble myself and go back to the basics of sentence formation. Looking back, I wish I took the time to do this prior to my sessions with Mark. My verbal score quickly increased when I refreshed my memory on basic verbal concepts while implementing the strategies Mark taught me. If you are not strong in foundation, you can easily get lost in the sauce in a group class. 2. If you are struggling in quant, this is your man. Again, math is built on FOUNDATION. If your foundation is not strong, you will not succeed on the GMAT Quant section. I already had a strong math foundation but only scored a 35 in the Quant section. Mark forced me to see math as more than solving equations, which I love to do lol. He showed me how to identify GMAT tricks, how to cancel answer choices without solving the problem, and how to solve problems in an unconventional way. My timing got so good that I would have 30 min to complete the last 10 problems in the quant section. I scored a 49. 3. Practice how you play! He will give you strategies. When you do practice problems, use them! Bad habits are hard to break, but you will save yourself some heartache and, in my case, GMAT exam money if you just trust he is leading you in the right direction. If you are stuck in low 600s or struggling in time management or strategy, this is the perfect person for you! Mark is an excellent teacher and one of the brightest people I have ever come across. He will give you a plethora of strategies and tools that will aid you in maximizing your performance come test day. I started with a 510 and am up to a 670. I plan to retake the test and have full confidence I can get to the 700 club. Dan Sehl2018-04-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark is a one-of-a-kind educator that is passionate and knowledgeable about preparing his students for whatever their career goals are. His lessons are engaging and entertaining and prepare students well for the GMAT and getting their MBA. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone who wants to prepare for the GMAT! Belen Prebisch2018-04-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took an in-person GMAT course taught by Mark Robinson in 2017, he is as good as it gets! Well prepared, he will teach you everything he knows.
