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.

Stationary for GRE at home vs. test center
ETS began its “GRE General at Home” testing service early last year due to the pandemic. The home-based test is identical to the GRE in format and content. However, the rules for the kind of stationery you can use for note-taking differs from the usual GRE.
The home-based test is administered through “Proctor U” software, and because of security concerns, there are special guidelines in place to ensure that nothing related to the content of the test leaves the room.
Cheating is rampant on GRE at Home
As I write this, test-takers across the world are rampantly cheating on their “GRE at Home” tests, achieving near-perfect scores, and nobody seems to be taking notice. It is happening all over the world as can be seen from this NDTV article as well as by this Indiaexpress article. The GRE test has always been revered as a safe and secure test that has emphasized preventing fraudulent activities at test centers worldwide. However, its home-based GRE service is deeply flawed that can be easily bypassed by using a mere $5 splitter HDMI cable. Yes, that’s all it takes.
This article will provide photo evidence of actual GRE questions sent to me by people from across the world. I will uncover the method that is used by fraudulent test-takers so that ETS could take appropriate measures and stop this.
