Cracking the GMAT Focus: Why Personal Mentorship beats Video Courses Every Time
Let’s be honest for a second. Preparing for the GMAT is lonely. You sit in your room, solve endless questions, and when you get stuck, you usually just stare at the explanation in the book trying to figure out “why” you got it wrong.
Most students I talk to aren’t struggling because they don’t know math. They are struggling because they don’t have a strategy.
If you are aiming for a top B-School in 2027, you have probably realized that watching pre-recorded videos isn’t enough. You need someone to actually look at your solving method and correct it.
That is where Tarun Kaushik comes in.
If you have been looking for GMAT classes, you might have heard of his institute, “Ace Your Test”. Unlike the big commercial coaching centers where you are just a roll number, Tarun runs specific Individual and Group classes that are actually focused on getting you a score, not just finishing the syllabus.
Real Stories and Real Scores
Before we talk about the new batch, I want to share some actual results. Because at the end of the day, we need to know if this works.
We had a few students recently who were completely stuck at average scores. They knew the concepts but couldn’t cross the 645 barriers. After joining the group sessions, things changed fast.
Here is a quick look at a few students who cleared and got admission recently:
| Student | Background | Old Score | Final Score | Admitted To |
| Priya S. | IT Consultant | 610 | 730 (Classic) | Wharton |
| Rahul V. | Finance | 585 (Focus) | 695 (Focus) | ISB |
| Amit K. | Marketing | New | 665 (Focus) | INSEAD |
| Sarah J. | Fresher | 585 | 705 (Focus) | London Business School |
Rahul’s case was interesting because he was good at Quant but terrible at the new Data Insights section. The personalized feedback really helped him fix that.
New Batch Alert: 5th April 2026
Tarun Sir is starting a fresh Comprehensive Batch on 5th April, 2026.
If you are planning to apply for Round 1 this year, this is the best time to start. The course runs for about 2-3 months, which gives you enough time to practice before your exam.
What is actually in the Course?
I know every institute promises the world, but here is the breakdown of what Ace Your Test is offering for this batch. I’ve highlighted the stuff that actually matters.
The “Group Classes” Package:
- Small Group Size (Max 10 Students): This is the main thing. Most classes have 40-50 people. Here, with max 10, you can’t hide. You get personal attention in every class.
- 50+ Hours of Live Classes: These are high-impact sessions. No boring theory lectures.
- Elaborated Notes Access: This is their USP. Honestly, no one else provides notes this detailed across the globe. It covers every edge case you might see on the exam.
- 5,000+ GMAT Focus-Aligned Questions: You get a massive question bank.
- 20 Sectional Practice Tests: These are for targeted prep. If you are weak in Algebra, you can just take Algebra tests.

The biggest advantage of Ace Your Test is the accountability. When you are in a small group of 10, you feel motivated to study. You see others improving, and it pushes you.
Plus, Tarun Kaushik is known for being technically very sound. He doesn’t just teach “tricks”; he teaches the logic behind the question.
