TTP helped me get my dream GMAT score!
The course is well laid out and as long as you follow it step by step, you'll have all the tools you need to get a high score.
The course contains a huge number of practice problems and review quizzes. Every quant and verbal concept tested in the GMAT is represented in the TTP course.
In the study material, the more difficult questions usually have a short video explanation, but the written answer explanations are also quite clear. This is true for both the verbal and quant sections and having good answer explanations for the verbal section is really useful.
You also have access to some neat analytics that helps identify weak areas, which is great to have in the weeks leading up to the real GMAT. The ‘Strategy’ section is a great help since the GMAT is not just about preparation, but also about execution.
The TTP course is heavy in material, more so than other courses I’ve seen, but if you dedicate the time, you are almost certain to get a high score!

Target Test Prep is Truly Great

Benefitted greatly from the Target Test Prep program. Through the use of the program, I improved my quant score from the high 30s/low 40s range to a 50 and improved my verbal from mid 30s to a 42. After completing their quant section, I felt prepared for every type of question that the GMAT could throw at me. Their verbal section was a great but I would have liked more practice questions (definitely struggled with verbal section more than quant). But I also completed GMAT Club verbal tests/forum questions and felt the combination of both sites provided more than enough material.

The TTP Syllabus is an excellent addition for anyone preparing for the GMAT. It covers all exam topics but can be easily adapted to individual needs. The division between topics is very clear and the examples provided are excellent. There are also many practice tests for each topic covered in the GMAT. This is an excellent resource. The Target Test Prep GMAT Quant course is perfect for improving your quant score. I have used this course for self-study for 4 months and found it very helpful. The exercises are the most realistic I have ever seen. The solution is the clearest and most comprehensive I've read. The learning platform is student-friendly and enables rapid progress. In general, this course is beneficial and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to improve their score.

I would highly recommend TTP for GMAT prep. What I love most about it is that they have every lesson broken down into chapters, and tests/quiz after each chapter to reinforce that concept. This requires more concentration than video lectures and initially might seem more difficult, but it's a much more efficient way to learn and understand concepts.

I also love being able to create quizzes and analyze my mistakes allowing me to focus my efforts better. On top of their great material, their UI is really nice as well and makes studying a lot more pleasing.

I would encourage everyone to take their free trial. They provide access to the full course and no review can tell you as much as the real thing. I'm not surprised at all that they are the top rated course.

Everything you need to boost your Quant score

Solely using TTP, I was able to improve my quant score from a baseline of 36 to a 48 on test day. I achieved steady incremental improvement thanks to the incredibly detailed answer explanations as well as the tracking and analytics the program provides for all wrong answers. While the lessons were helpful, the myriad question sets and practice tests were the real difference maker. The program sets test score goals as you progress through each lesson and stage and enables you to benchmark your progress and really hone in on the subjects that require the most attention. I had a quick turnaround to take the GMAT but was still able to get to the point, through the repetition demanded by the TTP program, where I felt comfortable with every type of quant question and every way in which the exam could try to trick me. The program includes a handy tips section that offers helpful reminders about study traps and offers test day strategies. Every practice test in the program was the exact same format as the GMAT, which made the transition to test day easy.

I bought a subscription to TTP after my friend recommended it to me. I was so lost trying to find an effective yet digestible way to study for the GMAT, and I was pleasantly surprised with the TTP course. The Study Plan it provides is tailored to your score goals and simply lays out content, tests, quizzes, etc. My GMAT studying was a bit rocky from putting it off because of a girlfriend to going through a breakup to eventually scoring a 720. Throughout everything, though, I really attribute TTP to my sustained grasp of the material and its Study Plan that really drilled the material into my memory.

Highly recommend TTP to anyone looking to score high on the GMAT at a bargain.

A course that focuses on fundamentals to build concepts. It was a great fit for me as I like to learn every topic in-depth instead of taking shortcuts. The UI/UX of the course is great as well. Being a front-end developer myself, I really appreciated it.
I first spent 1$ to get started with the trial subscription. Immediately, I understood that this was the course I was looking for. The number of questions, especially in quant, is exhausting but worth it. Verbal too, meticulously builds on one concept after another - it is all very well designed and implemented. Finally, the motivational videos from Scott are a wonderful feature!

Really good, especially for Math

First of all, my English comprehension level is pretty high (every day I read news that cover advanced topics such as politics and economy), so my review of the Verbal part of the course may be overly critical.

The Good (there are many, but these are the most important for me):
-The lessons are written only, which suits my learning style. If the student prefers videos, then I suggest to look elsewhere, since the only videos that this course offers are the ones that solve the questions presented in the lessons.
-The written lessons are short and easy to understand, so you wont get bored easily.
-The difficulty and type of questions were very similar to the ones presented in the GMAT test.
-I liked that for every question I could see the percentage of people who got it right and the average time.

The no so Good:
-Although I did learn a few new topics for SC, the CR and RC didn't teach me anything new. The tips on how to approach these questions didn't resonate with me, because I thought they were too time consuming. Sticking to my own way of solving these questions worked for me, but for a more intermediate student, the tips may be more helpful.
-Though the analytics section is interesting, I found it a bit gimmicky and not that useful. The problem is that the topics have varying number of questions. some have just 15 hard questions, while others have more than 90. Thus, a single silly mistake in an easy topic that has few questions is going to make it look like it's a weak area for you, even though you know it really isn't.
-I would suggest TTP to improve the error log. I would've prefered to see all my wrong questions at first and then have filters by topic, reason for the error, difficulty, etc.. The way it's currently presented is too cumbersome and time consuming, because I need to first select the topic and then the type of error.
-My biggest gripe was the fact that there was no question forum. Particularly for certain CR questions that I think had wrong correct answers, I would've liked to express my objection and why I thought the correct answer was wrong. However, there's no way to do it, which made me very frustrated.

Overall, I think TTP is very solid for the price. Most of the people I know have studied in classes that cost over USD 1000, but I wanted to save money. The result was that I only took one test and already got a score way higher than I expected. Particularly grateful for the Math section of the course, which helped me go from almost zero knowledge to a respectable 48.

Q47 to Q49 Thanks to Target Test Prep!

Target Test Prep was a huge help for me to bring my score up from 710 to 720. Back in 2020, I hadn't used Target Test Prep and achieved a 710; however, I struggled to move my Quant score above the Q47 range and I felt my verbal score was at or near the max I would be able to achieve. I knew that I needed to think about my studying approach differently, so I used Target Test Prep. Target Test Prep's program made sure that I knew everything I could've possibly needed to for Quant. I ended up completing about 95% of the program and every time I walked into the test, I felt confident about the Quant section as I had already seen every type of question hundreds of times through TTP. This was a huge difference from when I took the test back in 2020 and felt anxious each time about the Quant section. Ultimately, Target Test Prep helped me bring my score up to a 720 through a Quant increase from 47 to 49! I had always been concerned about being under the 720 mark so I'm very grateful I used Target Test Prep to help me get to the score I was hoping for.

Comprehensive platform - TTP

My GMAT journey began in July, when I figured that I need to start preparing for the exam right away - considering that admissions to masters courses would probably start in October. I had roughly 2-3 months to study for the test and attempt it thereafter.

I started preparing with some free resources on YouTube. After a couple of weeks of doing this, I attempted an official practice exam to gauge my strengths & weaknesses. I got a 610. The score was surely in the range that I expected considering I wasn't in touch with various concepts like geometry, permutations & combinations. Additionally, I realised that the verbal used in the GMAT was extremely different to what I was taught through school and university. What sounded right to me was in most cases wrong, and I knew I had my work cut out.

I subscribed to TTP after speaking to a couple friends who got a great score. They recommended TTP.

The platform in itself is extremely comprehensive. It divides the entire course into various topics. You're expected to study each individual topic and attempt tests of that particular topic. It also creates a study plan for you considering your timelines and personalises the course for you. You're expected to get a certain target score in each topic. You can go through the concepts repeatedly until you get the target score. Each topic has multiple tests in 3 difficulties, so there's no lack of practice questions! As you go through this process for each topic, you automatically get better and more confident in these topics.

I repeated this for each topic. Once I was done with the whole course, I attempted the official practice tests on mba.com. Focused on time management and that was essentially it.

I'd recommend TTP for most people who are studying for the GMAT. The verbal is a little hard to study through, but if you focus through it, you see the questions differently and instinctively see errors. You could also couple the verbal course along with free videos on YouTube for whichever topic you feel you're lacking in. For quant, it is absolutely optimal.

Since there is a lot of reading, it is essential that you have your mind fully prepped, how you do that is up to you. I worked out, played football and meditated daily and made sure I was in the right headspace to study.

This is what worked for me. Keep in mind that TTP is extremely comprehensive. That's good if you need the extra reinforcement, like I needed. But if you're short on time, you wouldn't be able to complete the course. If you have time on your hands, I'd recommend the course 100%.

All the best!

Hi @faazil10,
Thanks for the debrief! I just had a small question for you. I have around 2 months left now for my GMAT. Is that still enough time for me to use the TTP course well? Also regarding verbal, in what way was TTP "hard to study through"? Any more tips or suggestions would be very much appreciated!
