GregMat

GregMat is an online GRE prep subscription for test-takers who study on their own schedule and want a clear plan without paying for a large prep course. The home page calls it "The GRE prep platform students actually love" and says its founder, a teacher, built it to offer "affordable, effective, and actually engaging study tools." Everything sits behind one subscription, GregMat Plus, which opens the study plans, the live and recorded classes, the memorization tools and the practice tests together. The site's top bar also links to PrepSwift, a sister site of shorter review videos, and to separate GMAT and TOEFL prep sections, but the plans, classes and tests described on its pages are built around the GRE.

What a subscription covers

The home page groups the offer into four areas: study plans, classes, tools, and tests and quizzes. The pitch is that a learner never has to work out what to study next: "Our GRE test study plans tell you exactly what to do daily."

Study plans. There are three, and they suit different calendars. The One-Month Study Plan (Version 2.0) runs from a Getting Started page through four weekly sections to a closing "Bring it Home" section. Its introduction explains that it replaced the first study plan GregMat ever made, which "was getting a bit dated," and is candid about the trade-off: the plan "is rigorous and will definitely prepare you for the GRE. Perhaps not quite as well as the two-month plan."

The Two-Month Study Plan spreads the work over eight weekly sections. Its welcome note admits "the plan is very intense" and offers practical ways through it: watch the videos at 1.5x or 2.0x speed, and skip videos you do not need (a mathematician by trade might skip most of the math lessons). By default Quant and Verbal are studied on the same day; anyone who prefers to alternate can do two days of Quant, then two days of Verbal. The note also promises periodic edits to keep the plan clean.

The third option, "The I'm Overwhelmed Study Plan," is written for people studying around "a full-time job, a family, or other commitments." It is divided into twelve modules rather than days, with no recommended timeframe for any module or part, so learners move at their own pace in what the page calls "bitesized, manageable chunks." The early modules put heavy weight on quant foundations, alongside verbal and writing strategies and the first 22 groups of the GregMat vocabulary list; GRE-style question work comes later. The plan's reasoning is that a strong quant base has to come before quant strategy, while vocabulary and verbal strategy can be learned side by side. Each module is split into parts and closes with an end-of-module test titled "Test What You've Learned." The first three modules are marked free, and the page notes that the full plan needs the PrepSwift add-on.

Classes. Live teaching is organized into upcoming, recent and recorded classes, a class schedule and a set of "Must See Recordings." The home page lists live classes among the reasons it calls itself supportive, alongside community forums and a support team, and mentions "quick-study videos" as part of the overall package.

Tools for memorizing. Vocab Mountain is the signature tool. The home page describes climbing through word lists, tracking progress and mastering the words that matter most for the GRE, and says the company uses tools like it "to make studying memorable and engaging." There is also a TOEFL version of Vocab Mountain, a vocabulary list, a support/contrast list, a Quant Mountain and a set of quant flashcards.

Practice and tests. The practice menu covers skill building, separate banks of quant and verbal problems, essay writing and a GRE essay section, GRE mini exams, and mock tests split into quant and verbal. Quant and verbal diagnostic tests sit in the main navigation for learners who want a baseline before picking a plan. The site describes its method as skills-based, aiming at "mastering the strategies and foundations, so you're ready for any GRE question, not just the ones you've seen."

Free resources

A learner can try a fair amount before paying. The home page's free section invites visitors to "Access our free practice exams and tools, no strings attached," and names three starting points: a full-length GRE practice exam ("completely free"), a taste of the day-by-day study plans, and Vocab Mountain. On the I'm Overwhelmed plan, Modules 1, 2 and 3 carry a free label. The wider tool set, the remaining tests and the full plans are part of GregMat Plus, which the home page says adds "even more tools, practice tests, and other helpful resources."

Pricing

The home page lists two subscriptions, both monthly and both in US dollars:

• GregMat Plus, described as "Full-access GRE prep," at US $11.99 a month.
• GregMat Plus + PrepSwift, described as "All-in prep + lightning-review videos," at US $14.99 a month.

The pricing page's own description reads "GregMat is super cheap! Just $11.99 a month!" and the home page promises "Straightforward pricing, zero hidden fees." Both prices are shown per month.

PrepSwift is the reason for the second tier. The two-month plan describes prepswift.com as a sister site whose videos "are much shorter and don't include students' questions," and recommends it for moving through material, especially math, more quickly. Because the I'm Overwhelmed plan requires the add-on, a learner who wants that plan beyond its free modules should budget for the $14.99 tier rather than the base subscription.

Community and support

The home page sums up its support pitch as "Never study solo," resting on live classes, community forums and a support team. The forums run at forums.gregmat.com, and the I'm Overwhelmed plan points learners there for advice, with email support for anything confidential. That same plan carries a practical note on testing accommodations: learners who need extra time should start the request with ETS before they begin studying, because gathering documentation and the review can take a while, and some will first need to be tested for a diagnosis. It is a small detail, but it shows the plans were written by someone who has watched students run into that problem. The menu also links to tutoring, an app, a blog, and testimonials and reviews, and the home page says "Thousands of students chose us."

Who it suits

GregMat fits the self-directed GRE taker who wants a plan to follow and a low monthly bill. The one-month plan suits someone with a test date coming up soon, the two-month plan suits someone who can commit to heavy daily study for eight weeks, and the I'm Overwhelmed plan suits working adults and parents who need to study in short sessions without a calendar to keep up with. Learners with a strong math background benefit from the plans' explicit permission to skip lessons they already know, and the faster PrepSwift videos give them a quicker route through review. Because it is billed monthly, a learner pays only for the months they actually study.

There are caveats. By the company's own account, the timed plans are intense, and the self-study format leaves the pace to the learner. The most flexible plan sits behind the PrepSwift add-on, so its real price is the $14.99 tier. The GMAT and TOEFL links in the top bar point to separate sections; the study plans, classes and practice tests described here are for the GRE. For a GRE candidate who wants daily direction, plenty of practice and a price that stays low for as long as preparation takes, it is a strong, focused choice.
