The Brightlink Prep Story
In 2012, we brought the best talent in teaching to accomplish an ambitious goal: to bring together everything you need to prepare yourself for standardized exams. The idea struck after years of struggling to get students to score high on aptitude tests, while they balance demanding jobs, academics, and busy families. So we made it our mission to bring immersive teaching into student’s lives in a more accessible, affordable and efficient way.

What Our Students Say
I took the Brightlink Prep GMAT one to one session with Talha and was extremely happy with it. He really knew the GMAT and I was really surprised when Talha told me that he takes the actual GMAT exam 5 times a year – that really shows strong commitment.
Talha is a really, really good teacher. He knows what he’s doing, and he knows it inside out. He keeps himself involved and he always knows the latest news and materials available. I found his classes to be well-organized and extremely helpful. I never walked out of a single class confused.
I had a great experience with Brightlink Prep. I took classes with both Moeez and Talha. They are great teachers. Both of them have a very distinct teaching method where they focus on building concepts instead of just problem solving.
Brightlink Prep is no doubt the best institute for GRE preparation if you aim to achieve the best possible scores. Small class size and personal attention you get from Talha differentiate Brightlink from other institutes. I always advise the people I know to join one of Talha’s session to ace the test.

GRE at Home vs. GMAT Online Exam
MBA aspirants looking to take either GRE or GMAT during the pandemic can do so thanks to the “at-home” versions of the tests. Both ETS and GMAC began offering their home-based tests shortly after the pandemic broke out last year. Due to test center shutdowns, students couldn’t take the regular tests.
As far as format and content are concerned, both tests are identical to their test-center versions. However, GMAC has omitted the AWA section on GMAT online, whereas GRE has no such omissions. Skipping the AWA section from GMAT has made it 30 mins shorter as compared to the regular test. Other than this, GMAT online is identical to the standard test.
Do’s and Don’t of GRE at Home Testing
The ongoing pandemic has caused GRE test centers worldwide to shut down. ETS introduced a home-based GRE test to cope with the shutdown and offer students a chance to take the test without leaving their home. However, as you can imagine, a home-based standardized test comes with its own set of problems due to the lack of in-person supervision.
Although the home-based test and the general test are identical in format and content, their delivery is vastly different. ETS has to deal with particular challenges to prevent cheating instances, and the recent cheating reports are hopefully going to make the proctors more vigilant.
