The TTP Course is hands-down the best course out there for quant.

Pros:
1) All you need to build a solid quant foundation
2) The lessons build on each other
3) The TTP team is super responsive - Scott, Jeff & Marty respond to queries very fast

Cons:
1) A bit expensive (~20% of monthly pay check for many Indian students)

FAQ:
Q: Will I get a 700+ score if I complete TTP?
A: TTP will help you lay a solid foundation for quant & verbal. Once you have studied the basics, it's a matter of practice. One has to keep solving questions & taking tests till the target score is reached. TTP was one of the key pillars of my own study. It helped me go from a 640 (Q39 V39) to a 700 (Q48 V38) in the actual GMAT (Online).

Q: How long does it take to complete TTP?
A: It took me 6 months (2 hrs. daily) to complete the course. YMMV.

Q: Is the TTP Verbal content good?
A: When I was practicing from TTP, their Verbal content was in beta stage. I was happy with the content.

TLDR: If you are looking for one course for all your GMAT needs, you can't go wrong with TTP.

Honestly, TTP was incredible. Everything was set up for me from lesson plans, practice problems, etc. It was just a great way to know what to study and when, and there wasn't too much outside of TTP that I needed. One thing that I also appreciated was the "assigned readings" which outlined the test, strategy, and ways to improve. That was equally as important as the actual material in most cases. Additionally, after I took my first GMAT and wanted to take it again, Scott gave me two weeks for free which was incredibly cool of him.

I would recommend TTP to anyone.

Before stumbling upon TTP, I had spent 7+ months paying for self-paced and instructor-led courses with other test prep companies. No matter how hard I studied, I could never get past a 690 on the GMAT (specifically, I was stuck at V43). I was losing confidence by the day. After only 2 months of self-paced studying with TTP, I improved my quant score to 45/47 range and V44, with an overall score of 720. TTP was tremendously helpful in achieving this score with what felt like minimal effort! I went from studying 15-20 hours a week with no concrete plan or strategy to 10-12 hours a week. TTP material is way more digestible, fun, and easy to apply. Highly recommend!!!!

Target test prep was key for my GMAT score. I have used other platforms before, but none of them provided me with top content on a great platform. This was extremely important for me to have a good view of my performance over time and decide where to focus my efforts to increase performance in my weak areas.

I used it for two months for both quant and verbal. It was important to have a clear view of how I was doing, something I did not have in other platforms, in order to prioritize my time and decide what to study next. I believe we all have busy work schedules and it is difficult to find time to study at this point in our careers, but what I found out is that having a platform that helps you prioritizing what to study is extremely important to succeed.

After reading all of the glowing reviews online (Reddit especially) I really expected to be blown away by TTP. It was pretty good and definitely comprehensive, but there were a fair number of drawbacks to be considered. I consider it a useful tool to supplement your prepwork - if you're only using TTP and no OG materials you will have a bad time in trying to achieve a top-tier quant score imo (see my score for reference lol, still trying for it).

The quant materials are undeniably thorough; if you're a total beginner to quant this course will help you master the foundations. They drill the most basic concepts into you over and over. But the TTP quant questions are incredibly straightforward, even at the hardest difficulty levels, and they won't teach you the common "tricks" that browsing 600-700 level OG questions on here would. It won't teach you any novel test-taking strategies either.

I would recommend TTP if only to use as a foundation for drilling OG questions either here or through Wiley's site. I don't regret the money I spent on it but I'm also a bit confused by all of the rave reviews, as if the course has no flaws.

I thought I could get a good GMAT quant score just by brushing up on my maths concepts. Easy right? Not at all. The GMAT quant section is a different beast, and I was not prepared for it. I realised I had gaping holes in some of my concepts. After wasting a couple of months studying from a few popular books, I finally signed up for TTP. I had seen glowing reviews, but did not imagine the course to be this thorough.

Each module first explains the concepts, and then drills them into your head with the sectional tests. I did all the modules and all the sectional, and review tests in order. It definitely took me some time, but do keep in mind the course is front loaded i.e. the first few modules take longer to complete. I spend 250+ hours on the platform and solved over 3500 problems. The fact that the platform is so well designed and thought-out also helps.

When I started taking Practice Tests, I felt great. No question type felt unfamiliar, and that was true even for the actual GMAT. I used the practice tests to better my timing strategy - which was also something the TTP team covered during the initial strategy call they offer.

The verbal module is also great, and very very extensive. I personally did not complete the whole thing, but if you have the time, I highly recommend it.

I started my GMAT journey last March, when COVID shut everything down. I figured it'd be a great time to shut myself in and prepare for a few months. When I started studying, I took a diagnostic test from the GMAT Official Guide, and I remember stopping something like 15 questions in because I was guessing on every single question. I didn't remember any math at all from my high school days, and I didn't study math in college either. I never got my diagnostic score because I was so bad at it I couldn't even finish the exam.

I tried the Target Test Prep trial version and found it very accessible and well constructed. After the trial ran out, I bought a subscription and started studying for 1-2 hours a day every day. I only used it for Quant, and over the past year, I re-learned everything I had forgotten about math over the past decade. I found TTP to be extremely helpful. The video explanations and problem solutions were easy to understand, the pacing of the course was perfect for me while I worked a full time job, and the lessons were constantly updated to be more comprehensive. I took the GMAT last month and scored a 50V / 48Q / 770 total, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without TTP. I don't know what my original score would have been since I quit the diagnostic halfway through, but I imagine I improved by a margin of at least 150 points, if not over 200. Strongly recommend for anyone struggling with math like I was!

Loved the Target Test Prep service - it allowed me to work on my own time and really grind on the Quant. It can seem a bit minimalist, but I really enjoyed how simple the lessons were and TTP was always on hand in case I had any additional questions. The videos were also very insightful and really focused on understanding the concepts rather then gaming the test. I also liked the feeling of incremental growth as TTP employed a tracker that indicated where you were on your progress. Would definitely recommend to those starting out or are unsure about your time commitment as it is very flexible!

I can't recommend TTP enough. Coming from a zero quantitative background, I studied for 4 months with a group of education professionals. The result of my first two attempts was disappointing for my aspirations: I scored 640 and 680 (with a Q42 in both). I knew that my Quant section had to go up in order to achieve a higher overall score but I didn't feel comfortable nor did I grasp every topic from the basics. I decided to start a flexible plan with TTP, set a target score of 46-48 in Quant, and went through every section, exercise, and practice test. After 3 months, I was confident enough to give the GMAT a new try and managed to get a 710 (Q47, V42)! TTP rocks.

For those interested, I wanted to share my experience with Target Test Prep in the hopes it might help others who are considering their program for GMAT preparation. I started my GMAT journey back in late January 2021. I didn't know too much about the exam at the time other than what I learnt through taking a handful of the free practice questions from the mba.com website. I went ahead and took a diagnostic exam to see where I stood and scored a 590 (Q34/V38). After a recommendation from a friend, I paid $1 for TTP's 5 day trial and never looked back. I used TTP pretty much exclusively for Quant prep from March to June, used the OG q-bank for additional practice questions, and ended up scoring a 730 (Q47/V44).

Here's what I found most compelling about the TTP prep course:

1. TTP takes out all of the guessing game when it comes to study material. I feel very confident in saying that TTP covers every single concept the GMAT will test you on. As someone who felt absolutely overwhelmed by the multitude of study materials and sources out there, I found it incredibly comforting knowing that I would never need to piecemeal together different study products or programs in order to get a truly comprehensive approach between Verbal and Quant.

2. TTP is hyper-structured. Given how much I was struggling with Quant, I can't emphasize enough how helpful it was for me to go back to the basics and have a methodical approach in building up my foundational knowledge. TTP's readings are extremely thorough and have everything you need in order to make the transition between elementary, intermediate, and advanced concepts. Whatever your Quant goal is (whether Q45, Q48, Q51, or anything in between), I truly believe TTP can get you there if you follow it as intended and trust the process. One comment on this: whatever your target score is, I would recommend setting your desired Quant Score to "Expert +" otherwise some crucial readings will be excluded from the study plan.

3. Target Test Prep is super cost effective. To be honest I didn't spend too much time comparing prices between different prep providers because TTP's 5-day trial gave me all the confidence I needed to know that it was a great value-proposition. IMO the $299 for 4 months or $399 for 6 months is a no-brainer.

Summary Thoughts:

* Superb Prep material -- long but very thorough
* Highly structured course that outlines exactly what you need to do
* Extensive Q-bank with questions that I personally thought were close to the feel of the real GMAT q's
* Small team that does their best to respond in a timely fashion and provide advice
* Didn't spend too much time with the Verbal readings but found the practice questions helpful in getting reps
* Fantastic value-to-cost, if not the best on the market
