Review that really sticks
===
Academic research has found that memories are formed by repeated exposure to new information, so Magoosh’s flashcard app uses a spaced repetition system to help you in your preparation. Concepts you are learning will reappear frequently (occurring less frequently the better you know them) and concepts you already know won’t be repeated. The list is also culled to only 160 idioms so that you dont waste time learning unimportant ones for the SC section.

“I really like the way the words appear and the simple interface to show progress of the user. You guys have put good use of algorithms so one comes out learning the words well. The best flashcards to date.” - Arif

"I was able to learn more words in the 4th week by using your flashcard app than I learnt over the previous 3 weeks using Barrons 1100." - Sai

Yet another great resource from Magoosh. The idiom flashcards is a simple and easy to use tool that will prepare you to better handle the curveballs that the GMAT Verbal throws at you. 5-stars.
This app to great for learning idioms. If you pick the wrong answer, it has explanations for the correct answer choice. Magoosh constantly adds new content and updates to make the app better and I hope they keep up this outstanding work.
Im going to recommend this app to my classmates who are also studying for the GMAT. This is a reliable and portable way to study common idioms on-the-go. Simple interaction, different levels of difficulty with explanations as to why the idiom is considered correct/incorrect. There is also a decent amount of content so it can keep you busy for a while.
Magoosh is the cheapest and the best resource. At the same time.
I recently registered at the Magoosh website and began following a 6 month study plan for the GMAT exam. Im entering the third month of the plan and Im extremely happy with the results Ive achieved so far! The Magoosh flashcards are very helpful to help assimilate better all the concepts and formulas... I highly recommend Maggosh!!!!
Great tool for brushing up on English grammar when prepping for GMAT - both for native English speakers and speakers with English as their second language.

I downloaded a bunch of GMAT apps and this one was one of the few that had made the cut and not get deleted! The formatting is intuitive and the practice/explanations it provides are thorough and easy to understand. Excellent app to use if you need to practice your idioms.
The flash cards allow the individual to practice key core concepts anywhere on the go.
The use of flash cards is an excellent way for a native english speaker to review idioms.
