About Somil

Hi, I'm Somil Shah.

I am the Co-Founder & CEO of QDS Pro and a GMAT 99%iler with a strong academic and teaching background. I have spent years working with students preparing for GMAT and other competitive examinations, and my biggest strength is simplifying difficult concepts and making students think the right way.

My academic and professional highlights include:

• GMAT 99%iler
• Co-Founder & CEO of QDS Pro
• Official Adjudicator for the IEA Book of World Records and India Book of Records
• India Book of Record Holder
• Recognized among the Top 100 Record Holders of 2018
• Master Numero Uno – the ultimate title at Numero Uno, Mumbai's inter-collegiate Mathematics & Statistics Fest
• 4th Rank Holder at the University of Mumbai in T.Y. B.Com
• Mathematics and aptitude educator with extensive experience in competitive test preparation

But credentials are only one part of being a good teacher.

What matters to me is whether a student can take a concept they previously found difficult and eventually solve a challenging question independently.

That is why my classes focus on understanding rather than memorization.

I work with students on:

• Quantitative Reasoning
• Verbal Reasoning
• Data Insights
• Problem-solving strategy
• Time management
• Accuracy and speed
• Question selection
• Error analysis
• Mock-test analysis
• Test-day strategy
• Building confidence under time pressure

I also use my mental-mathematics expertise to help students identify where calculations can be simplified and where time can be saved without compromising accuracy.

Most importantly, I don't believe that every student should follow the same preparation plan.

A student scoring 505 and a student scoring 685 should not be taught in exactly the same way.

Your preparation should depend on your diagnostic performance, target score, available preparation time, strengths, weaknesses and the kind of mistakes you make.

That is why my one-to-one sessions begin by understanding the student before deciding what to teach.

About the lesson

My GMAT classes are personalised around your current level, target score, strengths, weaknesses and preparation timeline.

Every session follows a focused approach: Diagnose → Understand → Apply → Test → Analyse → Improve.

We go beyond simply completing topics. I help you understand the concepts, recognise GMAT question patterns, improve your speed and accuracy, analyse your mistakes, and develop effective test-taking strategies.

Whether you are starting from scratch, struggling with a particular section, stuck at a score plateau, or targeting a highly competitive score, the preparation is adapted to your specific needs.

As a GMAT 99%iler, I combine strong conceptual teaching with practical GMAT strategy, mental-math techniques, question selection, time management and detailed error analysis.

The goal is simple: not just to solve practice questions, but to help you think, decide and perform effectively when the clock is running on test day.

Perfect! After attending numerous trial classes from different institutes in Mumbai, I finally made an informed decision and joined QDS Pro for my GMAT exam. Hands down, if you're looking for an elaborate coaching institute with REAL personal attention, then QDS Pro is the place for you.
There are a lot of well known institutes which are good but rush through the syllabus or have so many students that they don't give personal attention (believe me because I have taken trial classes at multiple centres). You can even ask for free trial session here and see it for yourself. I do not have any regrets. Even during pandemic, the entire syllabus was covered online in such a smooth way that I now prefer online coaching over offline coaching.

Perfect! I've attended GMAT Quant classes at QDS Pro, both in person and online since COVID19. I can honestly say the teaching is excellent - QDS' style is to go from the basic to advanced level to make sure that your fundamentals are solid and then push you to answer the most difficult questions. The instructors are some of the friendliest people you'll ever meet and class sizes are small. Definitely recommended.

Perfect! QDS Pro Coaching Institute for MBA Entrance Exams preparation is amazing. The faculties over here are so hardworking and very helpful. Their teaching methodology is customized as per the needs of the student. I am saying so through my own personal experience. I was a slow learner and the faculty thereby slowed the pace of the teaching and made sure that I was understanding each and every concept. Highly recommended.

Perfect! Attended the QDS Pro GMAT classes under Somils' guidance and I have to say I haven't had the chance to meet such a dedicated, up-to-date and involved teacher in a while! The batch size was kept to a maximum of 5 so that each of us got to receive personal attention for our own queries and also got the opportunity to brain storm as a group when required. There was a customised study plan for each of us based on our respective strengths and weaknesses and Somil has gone out of his way to accommodate my timeline of completing a 3 month course in a period of 2 and a half months without missing out on any study material and getting us all set for the exam. Highly recommended for - 1) Scoring well, 2) Learning from a teacher who truly wants you to be able to give it your very best, 3) Learning some COOL Somil tricks to adapt to questions better.
