What does TestSoup do?
TestSoup is a web and mobile based flashcard system that allows students to study for standardized tests on the go. It is a subsidiary of Wasabi Ventures LLC, a venture capital firm and holding company.
How are they different?
TestSoup features flashcards for the GMAT, GRE, and AF PDG as well as mobile applications for BlackBerry and iPhone. Each set includes 400+ flashcards aimed to refresh student’s memories on core concepts. From a student’s perspective, it has a very useful flag feature. Students can flag difficult cards for extra review. Additionally, some cards include more than just the correct answer; some cards include formulas and steps used to derive the answer.
Why could TestSoup be BIG?
As a company, TestSoup wants the best for their students as they encourage innovative ways to be successful. In addition to their website where users can register and try 25 flashcards free, TestSoup has created a blog with helpful tips on how to prepare for standardized tests, especially the GMAT. For example, one blog post is titled: “Tips to Help You Dominate the GMAT Verbal Section”. In this post, there is a list of 8 tips including suggested readings. The readings suggested are more “dense works” like “deep philosophical books and publications like The Wall Street Journal” to improve your reading comprehension. Each posting is published with you, as a student in mind. Also, the postings are written by former students such as the “How to Get Into Harvard Business School”, and interview with Chris Yeh, by F1GMAT. How to get into Harvard Business School | MBA Application essays, Recommendation Letters, GMAT Tutorials and Question bank.
How they plan to make money:
Students can try 25 Flashcards free at www.testsoup.com.
Once students realize the value and efficiency of studying on the go , they will register. The cost of TestSoup is low and afforadable at a flat rate of $9.95/year.
