When i enrolled with TTP, I was struggling a lot with Verbal and Quant concepts. My understanding on the concepts was weak and that was not allowing my score to increase. TTP's topic wise course structure helped me grasp each concept easily while also providing easy methods to save time. The question based learning method worked well for me in solidifying my concepts before moving to the next. I would whole heartedly recommend it to everyone starting their journey on GMAT. My score improved by 70 points through the course. TTP also provides cheatsheet around idioms and mathematical formulas which you would need to constantly keep going through to save time in exams.

Target Test Prep was everything I needed and more to break the 700 barrier and score a 720! I was stuck in the 600s, constantly making silly errors and missing some harder questions. The guidance and reps provided by TTP made the difference in getting my score where it needed to be. The quant prep is unparalleled, and the new verbal section was very valuable, as well. I was pleasantly suprised by the amount of detail in each lession. The chapter tests kept me on track, and the extensive test bank provided me with an abundance of resources. Absolutely worth the buy!

Target Test Prep is incredibly detailed and thorough. It takes a lot of time to get through every module and take all of the practice quizzes, but the invested time is well worth it. Overall, the program is probably overkill, but this is important because once you are in the test environment, you need your responses to be second nature, which this course definitely helps you achieve. I would for sure recommend pairing this with the official practice tests, and you are pretty much guaranteed to get a good score if you complete the course and all the practice tests.

My very first GMAT practice test without any preparation was around a 580. I hadn't done any quant or verbal for 6 years! I then proceeded to study by myself using only the official MBA practice questions and after two months I eventually received a 690 on a practice, but I couldn't break 700. I knew I could do better, but I didn't have any direction. I was just doing mindless practice problems. My studies trailed off and ended after that. A couple months later I decided to try again, but with some help. After reading several reviews, looking through forums, and trying some free trials, I chose Target Test Prep (with the Verbal Beta). TTP is an excellent program to follow, and it's probably the best Quant program available. It will teach you everything you need to know from the ground up. You can easily gauge your understanding with the several chapter quizzes. I recommend getting 90%+ on all Medium difficulty quizzes before proceeding to the Hard quizzes or even the next chapter (If you want a 700+ score). Throughout the way, you can chat with their coaches. Marty, who scored an 800, is a master of the GMAT and an awesome coach. His understanding and in-depth responses helped me far more than any forums. Ultimately, I took the official test three times: 710, which I ended up canceling because I knew I could do better (I was getting 760's on Official GMAT practices), 730, and 740. I know I can do even better (I only did half the Verbal beta lessons, and on my 740 attempt, my Quant score dipped to a 47 because I was so focused on Verbal that I didn't review my Quant on TTP!!). However, I believe I have a high enough score to apply to the mba programs that I want. Overall, I absolutely recommend TTP and Marty. For Verbal I followed a mix of TTP Verbal Beta, which was incomplete at the time, and gmatclub's own GMAT Ninja. For Quant I solely used TTP.

I took the GMAT official test in June and scored a 430 (Q42 V 10). Post which, I signed up on TTP. TTP really helps you nail down the concepts. I found it incredibly useful for Quants and SC. Quant especially is really detailed and covers nearly everything necessary to get a high score. What I loved about the SC module was that the explanation of wrong answers was really detailed. Going through their set of questions and the explanations will make sure you know the 1000's ways a sentence can go wrong. I retook the GMAT last week and scored a 660 (Q47 V34), and a lot of the success is attributed to TTP. I like the kindle like notes making feature and the error log. The revision was easy peasy thanks to those features.

I took the GMAT recently and scored a 710. I did mainly SC and some Quant topics from TTP's course as I was already decent at other sections of GMAT verbal. I was impressed by the course's exhaustiveness. It covers everything you need to know. Things I like about TTP:

1. It makes your task easier by providing you different features such as highlights, bookmarks, excellent error log, etc. These features may sound normal, but they are lifesavers when you are reviewing the material and errors.

2. The course covers everything you need. Once you complete this course, you'll not need to do anything else. Just make sure that you don't finish the course in hurry.

3. Strategy lessons are just awesome. GMAT is not just about concepts, but also mind set. I think the strategy lessons help you a lot to create the right mindset.

I honestly think TTP spoon feeds you everything you need for a good GMAT score.

I also did some quant chapters. However, I did them in a hurry and didn't complete the chapters. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I am decent at quant so I skimmed through the concepts and didn't take the chapter tests. I would highly recommend to just take the TTP course and follow the process they mention.

Target Test Prep (TTP) is the only reason I got a 50 on Quant.

My studies for the GMAT began with Manhattan Prep. Their content was acceptable, covering a majority of the quant content but focussed heavily on short-cut strategies. After exhausting most Manhattan Prep resources, my quant score averaged around 46.

A friend recommended I try TTP, but I was skeptical. No joke, I thought that the price was too low for TTP to be any good. Manhattan prep was incredibly expensive relative to TTP. I was wrong.

Target Test Prep teaches you how to do any problem you could possibly encounter on the GMAT. Better yet, there are no strategies/shortcuts that often waste more time than they save. Instead, you learn how to efficiently solve problems the correct way that works 100% of the time.

I could go on and on about how incredible TTP is. I'll just wrap-up with this though. The guys who run the site are the best part. They responded to every message I sent them within an hour or two. They guided my studies, clarified compicated problems, and were absolute rockstars!

Note: I did all the SC and CR lessons as well. The SC is good, but I didn't have enough time to practice truly learn the topics. CR was already a strong area for me, but the strategies taught for CR were still helpful.

Target Test Prep (TTP) was instrumental in improving my quant score, bringing my score up to a 48 (from a 45) and bringing my total to a 730.
What I found most helpful about the program was how easy it was to navigate through the material, allowing me to target weaknesses and focus on improving components of the overall quant section. Through practice sets/exams completed before using TTP, I already had an idea going into the program what my problem areas were. This is what made TTP so effective for me because it allowed me to strategically select areas to focus my practice and ultimately improve.
Although I came in with this understanding of my own weaknesses, this program is structured in a way that would be beneficial for those coming in "fresh" as well.
I truly cannot recommend this product enough, and have already passed it along to many of my friends as they go through the same preparation journey.
Although I cannot speak to the verbal section of this program, if it is as high quality as the quant is (which I expect it to be), I'm sure it would be a valuable tool as well.

I decided to take the course because of the overwhelming amount of great reviews I have read online, and I can certainly say I was not disappointed! TTP is a great course that unpacks every single topic you will encounter on test day and drills into all the strategies you need to get your target score. I was roughly 40 points away from my target score during my practices before taking the course, but I was not confident of my approach to the problems and of my strategy for solving them. The huge number of practice tests you will encounter throughout the course really gave me a solid understanding of how to tackle each single problem, and I never got surprised during test day. Moreover, the Verbal part was really useful to iron out the doubts I had as a non-native speaker. Couldn't recommend this course more, it got me exactly where I needed to be and I am sure it can do the same for everyone!

I have took the GMAT 4 times, twice at home and twice in a test center, I went through the TTP materials twice in total and practiced in their portal for countless hours. I have tried other test providers practice questions, but have only used TTP materials.
While I have seen other materials, TTP is the only provider I have spent material time using as designed. I am a self-studier and need to "figure things out" on my own in order to retain them. This is the perfect match for TTP. Their modules are crafted to show you the concept and its logic, then lead you into discovering how is it presented in GMATland materials, and then to challenge you to think beyond the concept to answer challenging questions. Because of this structure, i encourage you to trust their process. I skipped around initially and over some concepts in total, only to comeback and do the whole program when my score was stuck in 710 and 720. The process works, don't chase speed it will come with concept mastery, complete the modules is practice for your practice.
TTP Verbal, a bit here since it was marker "Beta" when i used it, although by the end all the modules were released. I have to say that there were some YouTube series that I watched that framed the SC concepts of Verbal very well. Then with that framing the TTP Verbal really came to life. I did not ever open the RC and CR modules as I was already testing there at a high level.
TTP Practice Problems: These practice problems are not that similar to the official practice questions, but they are better practice. If that makes sense. You can see the concepts being tested and where the "trick" of the question is just like the GMAT Official questions, but i think the TTP are more clear. GMAT Official questions can be a bit more muddled, so it took some practice learning how GMAT tests different concepts. Other providers i used for practice (Manhattan and Kaplan) questions were far too "tricky". This is hard to explain, but it felt like they were trying to piece together random concepts in order to trick me, where i felt the GMAT would show you the concept and then test your ability to get to an answer logically and quickly.
Only ever use Official GMAT Mock Exams btw, none i have found are even remotely close to accurate representations of the real exam.
