History of Manhattan Review

The early beginnings of Manhattan Review began in New York City in 1999 by Joern Meissner, who was then a doctoral student and educator at Columbia Business School. Meissner was often praised by students for his practical approaches of complex ideas, and as a consequence, a group believed his style of instruction would be perfect for Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) preparation. At the time, GMAT prep was lackluster left a lot to be desired. In response, Meissner created a series of GMAT lectures that used his trademark method of teaching. Early returns were very positive, and these lectures would become the foundations of Manhattan Review's first test prep classes.

Manhattan Review has since broadened into the globe's leading international test prep company, with offices in cities in Cape Town and around the world providing services for all of the major standardized university admission tests. Our company has aided thousands of students get ready for acceptance to the universities of their choice by enhancing their SSAT, SAT, ACT, ISEE, GMAT, GRE, LSAT, TOEFL, and/or IELTS scores. We've also published a number of test prep textbooks, aided business professionals in improving their language skills, and enhanced university applications with our admissions consulting services. At Manhattan Review, we strive to integrate the resources of an international company with the customized service of a local firm, effectively serving the educational needs of Cape Town, Johannesburg, and all of South Africa.
