# Live Classes

## Do I need to join live classes?

No. For most students, they can just follow our [study plans](/en/article/study-plans-faq-17sqxk2/). Live classes are provided as a supplemental option for those interested and wanting to have an interactive experience. Similarly, live classes will be recorded, so you can watch them later as well.

## What types of live classes do you have?

Things we've done on a live class include:

1. Have a coffee session (with Greg/Vince) - where you can ask general questions to Greg/Vince. Note that during peak times, we won't be able to get to everyone - it's on a first-come first-serve basis (so raise your hand on Zoom early)
2. New quant/verbal questions - we beta-test new questions in these classes to see how well they perform. 
3. SoP (statement of purpose)/issue essay feedback - where Greg reviews a few random SoP/GRE Issue essays from students and gives feedback on them. 
4. We also have independent classes about a particular topic or strategy. 

## How can I view past live classes?

1. If it's a recent class, https://www.gregmat.com/feed lists the most recent classes that have been uploaded to the site
2. https://www.gregmat.com/recordings
3. You can search for a particular class by using the search icon at the top-right of the website. 

## How do I Register for a Live Class?

|| Find nothing? Most likely it's just the end of the week, and we haven't yet released the schedule for next week.

## How do I speak/ask doubts in a live class?

Raise your hand. That's how Greg/Vince knows that you want to speak.

|| Anything in the chat that you type will be visible only to the presenter (and maybe one or two other staff members - _panellists _in Zoom terms). In other words, it's not an open chat. The presenter will either respond back to you privately, or answer your question live (verbally).  

## Are live classes recorded?

Yes, and they'll normally be on the site a few days after the class. 

## Nothing seems to happen when I try joining a live class

This can happen if you haven't properly input your name when registering for the class - the customer service representatives can help you with this.
