At the beginning of my prep, I started with another company's course at the recommendation of a friend but did not find it to be helpful at all. The course had a good amount of practice questions but did not help with learning the theory behind the math (which is very important to do at the beginning of quant prep). Although I did not know anyone who had used TTP before, I took a chance and signed up for the 5-day trial for $1 to test it out. I was very happy with the format and quality of the course. The explanations were easy and TTP provides a wide variety of problems with easy to follow solutions ranging from Easy-Med-Hard. I was interested and motivated throughout and never did I find the course boring in any way. I would definitely recommend starting with the 5-day course to see how you feel and then if you like the structure of the program I'd say go for it! The Hard questions were immensely helpful in my preparation and gave me the confidence to tackle all levels of problems. If you are planning to give the exam in 3-4 months this is a great course for the value compared to others.

I finished my first GMAC practice test with a score of 680, and after 3 months of studying with TTP, improved to a 760. Their approach to the quant section is very comprehensive and it gives you the tools and confidence you need to do very well. I'm definitely stronger on verbal than I am on quant, and TTP helped make up that difference for me.

Sections are very specific and comprehensive. Everything on the actual test I encountered on during the test prep. Each chapter has a good breakdown of different types, and you can focus your practice on weaker sections.

They're just beginning to launch verbal, but I was able to benefit from that as well - the questions are generally harder than the ones on the GMAT so they're good prep.

I signed up for TTP after reading the amazing reviews of its offerings on both GMAT Club and Reddit. This product did not disappoint at all.

I was looking to improve my GMAT quant score and reach the Q50/51 range (I work in a non-quantitative field so this was particularly important for me to achieve). Having already studied the OG books and the Manhattan Quant book, I was confident in my understanding of the Quant theories being tested in the GMAT. I soon realised however that I needed to truly drill in these concepts and practice a ton of questions - this is where TTP truly excelled.

TTP's question bank is extensive and as close as I could find to real GMAT questions. The answers provided (including the step by step method to get the answers) were clear and helped improve my understanding of the concepts being tested and how to apply such concepts to complicated scenarios.

Going into the test, I felt confident that even when faced with tough questions, I had the necessary skills to break such questions down into first principles and apply what TTP had taught me to answer the question at hand.

Thanks TTP for helping me achieve my Q50 goal - truly a resource worth paying for.

I first took the GMAT in November 2020 and scored 640, with a quantitative score of 44. I was not satisfied with this score and wanted to improve my quantitative score in priority because this was key for my university applications.
I subscribed to Target prep in January, the quantitative course section was extremely helpful to improve my quantitative score in only 1 month from Q44 to Q49.
The lectures are great, very well structured, they cover all topics in details and enabled me to be very well prepared for the exam. Moreover, the platform offers a lot of exercises, which are very similar to the ones on the GMAT, which is crucial.
I strongly recommend it is worth the investment!

I finally broke 700 and it was all because of TTP.

I started this messed up journey in 2018 when I thought I'd attend my unranked state school's MBA program. I studied for a month or so then sat for the exam. ... 480. I couldn't even be taken seriously by my state school's standards of a 500 minimum GMAT. In that moment, I had a real epiphany - I'm going to have to work twice as hard to get half as far in life. It's a humbling moment when you realize you're well below average.

I spent that year learning how to learn, studying, reading, and bettering myself in all aspects. In the early summer of 2020, I thought I was ready to try the GMAT again. I took one of the GMAC practice tests and ... 530. Are you kidding me.

That's when I realize I needed help. I couldn't do this alone. I scoured reviews, YouTube, and even reached out personally to people to see what test-prep they liked best. I watched webinars, and realized, a lot of these test-prep companies weren't for me. To add to this, the predatory, HEAVY advertising gave me a lot of trust issues - I know this because I work in advertising... I'm part of the problem lol.

After going to the deepest darkest depths of YouTube, I ran into this review video about some Australian guy who spent a year getting from a 470 to a 710 with the help of TTP. I wanted to believe it was authentic (still not sure because I think he's affiliated with TTP in some way), but tbh, his story was super similar to mine. Real or not, TTP's sales pitch was the most relatable to me.

And oh boy did I make the right choice. If you didn't have a strong foundation in Math or Grammar, you NEED this. Honestly TTP should sell it's course to High-Schools. It's literally life changing.

What I liked most is that TTP didn't FEEL like WORK. Their UI/UX (design of website) is aesthetically pleasing and the module are very easy to follow. But not too easy - they still make a point for you to learn and internalize the concepts (this was HUGE for me).

Also, Scott, the guy who talks in most of the videos is candid and seems like a guy you could have a beer with. Most of the other test prep videos are so monotone and lecture-like. If I had to listen to 6 months of someone droning on about probabilities I would have literally lost my mind. TTP is super casual with their approach to learning which really helps you give a crap. They get it - you're probably not doing this because you live math or the GMAT. It's a means to an end and they make it as painless as possible.

By the end of this long journey... I can say I earned that 700!

2019: I'm from Vietnam and currently a college senior majoring in Management Information Systems in the US. I thought that I had a decent background in math so I didn't focus on the Quant section at first. For my first attempt in December 2018, I got a Q44, which was very disappointing. I decided to give Target Test Prep a try after reading a lot of reviews on GMAT Club. I was in a time crunch so I decided to go with the accelerated study plan. I used the ESR from my first attempt to study my weakest chapters first. For each chapter, I studied the Must Know Review and then did 3-4 medium tests and 1-2 hard tests. I invested approximately 40 hours in total over 8 weeks and finally got a Q49 in my second attempt in March 2019. My improvement from Q44 to Q49 definitely came from the structured approach of Target Test Prep. Target Test Prep does an amazing job at breaking down each chapter into a manageable unit of knowledge. I love how each test question connects directly to a lesson so that I can quickly fill my knowledge gap. Jeff and Scott are also very responsive to emails to answers any questions. I'd highly recommend Target Test Prep for anyone who wants to improve their Quant score.
2021: On my 3rd attempt at the GMAT, I used Target Test Prep again to practice and keep up my quant skills. I ended up getting the same score as in 2019 (Q49) with a total score of 760! Again, highly recommend Target Test Prep for quant prep

TTP was the holy grail of quant for me because of its division into chapters and the chapter tests having easy, medium and hard questions. Its material is thorough and encompasses all the official gmat mocks and what I saw on test day as well. The Verbal section is still under development but I found the same level of material there that I found in the quant section. The material is easy to review, the note system was great, and instructors were easy to reach and talk to. I didn't have the determination to finish every chapter and every test but all my weaker topics were very easily improved.

I am not a naturally Quant inclined person – a notion that I still emotionally wrestle with. Regardless, I knew that I wanted to improve my Quant score as I scored a 99% on Verbal but a 45% on Quant during my first GMAT test. I spent probably around 3xs the time on studying Quant vs Verbal at the point. I took a Target Test Prep mock, as well as those of Kaplan and Mprep. I found the explanations to be simpler and more elegant; sometimes, other prep courses’ Quant explanations felt confusing and convoluted. I used Target Test Prep as my primary Quant prep resources (as well as GMATclub, which is amazing) thereafter. Unfortunately, my GMAT test scores were all over the map, but I can confidently share that TTP raised my Quant score from 43 (45%) to its highest 48 (67%).

I'm a mid-career professional looking to transition to business school. I was very worried about the GMAT since I've been out of school for so long; even though my job (and my college major) were quantitative, my diagnostic score was very low, and I simply couldn't remember the basics. I almost didn't pursue it after reading so many awful stories of people who studied 4+ hours daily on weeknights and 6+ hours on weekends for months. I didn't think a schedule like that would work for me with my career and it seemed like that was the only way to truly prep and get a score over 700.

Initially, I tried the true self-study route and went with Magoosh, which was great, but far too unstructured for me - I found out quickly that I don't work well without analytical feedback and tracking, so I switched over to TTP and set myself up on the Expert track. As anyone who has experienced it can tell you, there is a TON of material, but I felt I needed the entire course to just refresh my skills. It took me about 9 months to complete 90% of the material (I skipped around through the last chapter / practice test phase as time ran out, but was diligent about completing the content in general). However, I only spent maybe an hour on most weekdays working on it, and 2-3 on each weekend day. You could probably get through it a LOT faster if you're wiling to devote more time each week (or if you go on the Advanced track instead, which I didn't try).

The key to TTP that worked for me is that the sheer volume of practice questions forces you to get comfortable with the problem types and material. By no means would I say I ever got confident on Data Sufficiency, for example, but I had enough practice narrowing down and reasoning through answers that I could get just enough of the hard ones right to stay on track. On all of the practice tests and on test day itself, I still felt like the questions were all so challenging - but I clearly had absorbed the strategies and material enough to succeed. I was shocked and delighted to see scores of 700 and 720 on the practice tests, and a 720 on the actual exam.

The material is clear and there are helpful descriptions and video explanations of every single question. Additionally, the course really does focus on the somewhat strange applications of the material that actually show up on the GMAT. Even though I felt like the real test was VERY hard, I did recognize the types of questions and was able to identify and recall the course material; I appreciated the tailored nature of the course in that way. The analytics section is amazing, and the single most valuable thing I did was go back through chapters at the end and sort by the type of questions I got wrong the most - highly recommended for anyone to target your learning. All the staff was helpful and quick to respond if I ever had a question, and importantly, they do not spam you with thousands of emails after you sign up.

I truly credit the course for getting me above the 700 score goal I'd set for myself, and allowing me to believe my MBA goals could actually become a reality. Highly recommend!

I used TTP for Sentence correction, and I have to say that it's Spectacular, Lots of people talk about TTP quant, which is ofc phenomenal, but SC is also on another level, if you have problems in verbal part, do not hesitate to purchase TTP course. I am a non-native speaker who struggled with Sentence correction, I tried almost everything on the market, but I have to admit, TTP has the most comprehensive verbal guide and their targeted practice does the magic!
At first TTP introduces the topics, you get accustomed to the exact things that are tested on the real exam, and then you get the targeted drills which focus on very important areas.
