I am a non-native speaker and was stuck as late V20's till I came across TTP Verbal course. I spent a countless number of with GMAT online prep courses from one of the leading company but despite putting in the effort, my score never improved especially in SC. I was kind of losing confidence which is when I came across TTP Verbal course. The best thing to happen for me was them offering whole course on free trial. Due to free trial I could know the quality of material and was able to immediately decide that I want to go ahead and purchase the plan and prep for my SC again from start. I was able to complete my SC prep in one month and was confident on my SC skills by the end of it. Scored V38 on the day with 88% in SC. My RC percentile was 28 on the day which costed me a lot. Eagerly waiting for TTP RC course too.

I wanted a course that would adjust to my full-time work schedule and help me address critical and challenging areas. TTP helped me the most to improve my accuracy in data sufficiency and sentence correction questions.

Despite my quantitative background, I realized I needed to improve my score for data sufficiency sections. TTP's strategy notes and the consistent application of these strategy notes in their provided solutions were of immense help.

In the verbal section, I sailed through critical reasoning and reading comprehension, thanks to my extensive reading habit but struggled with sentence correction questions. TTP's Verbal Beta helped me in recognizing splits and quickly arriving at the solution.

Additionally, the TTP design provides a good understanding of how you are performing compared to your target score throughout the program. This helped me focus on critical areas of improvement. Scott and his team are very responsive and supportive throughout the process. I would definitely recommend this course!

Target test prep helped my preparation a lot. It is a great learning tool especially for Quant with problems similar to the ones on the actual GMAT. Would highly recommend it. It takes a few months to properly go through the course, so make sure you start early to get the most benefit out of it.
The techniques to ace the CR section are also very well explained and helped me a lot to strategically tackle these questions.
Sentence correction is also very well explained and highlights many common pitfalls in the SC questions. I would suggest practice the OG guides too on the side for the best results.

I signed up for Target Test Prep's 4 month plan and went through the entire curriculum prior to taking my first exam. I was hoping to improve my 650-680 initial score to a 730-740 in order to get into my target schools. After getting a 710, I reached out to Jeff and Scott, who created a 1-month study plan that got me to my goal of a 730. The quant study materials are very thorough and helpful. Each module provides guided examples and quizzes to practice one's knowledge. There is also an extensive test bank that can be customized to redo incorrect answers or ones that take longer than two minutes. The verbal modules, while not quite as helpful in my opinion, also provided a strong base of knowledge for the critical reasoning and sentence correction questions. Overall, TTP was very useful in helping me reach my goals on the GMAT. I would recommend the service to others and encourage them to work through all the modules.

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.

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

The TTP Quant prep is the most comprehensive yet intuitive material that I have come across. I took my first GMAT attempt in November last year, and my Quant was at Q44. My scores in the official practice exams would vary widely, and I needed to breach the Q47 mark to achieve my target score of 740+. I came across Target Test Prep, I took their 5 day trial, and I was immediately hooked. The relentless interval testing along with the diverse variety of question sets pretty much ensures that you are solving the problems on auto-pilot come test day. I clocked in about 130 hours, finished 70% of the material, and I managed to score a 750 on my retake (Q48, V45). It's a great course, just trust the process.

Thanks to the TTP team, my GMAT score went from 580 to 740 in 8 months. Working full time, I was looking for a course with a proper structure so that I can track my progress. TTP is the most well-organized course out there and they genuinely prepare you to get 700+, given you put in the time and work to complete their course. Jeff was always there to guide me through and show me how I can get over plateaus and their weekly webinars kept me on top of quant topics while I was heavily focusing on Verbal. Huge shoutout to Scott and Jeff

TTP is an absolutely brilliant course, comprehensively covers everything you need for both Quant and Verbal, in an amazing interface. It's the complete package. I have used only TTP, OG and GmatClub tests to score my twin 760s.

TTP's Quant section has been there from the start, and has been constantly refined. It's pretty comprehensive, and has thousands of problems organised by topic and by difficulty, with an error tracker and analytics as well. No problems are repeated. Bottom Line: If you finish TTP Quant, I'd honestly be shocked if you score below Q47, if not in the Q49-51 range.

The Verbal was launched recently and honestly covers everything. I've no idea why it's still classified as "Beta". There are hundreds, if not thousands, of Verbal questions as well. I only used TTP Verbal and then OG & GMATPrep for my Verbal preparation, got V45 twice and my 6 mocks ranged from V46-49. I found GMAT CR easy after TTP's CR course. Bottom Line: TTP Verbal, despite being "beta", is sufficient to score V45+. The RC module will be launched soon as well, and I'm sure it will be amazing.

One key facet of GMAT preparation is being organised. Maintaining an error log, knowing your mistakes, knowing your accuracy in each topic, your strengths and weaknesses, and subsequently drilling your problem areas. TTP makes this simple, with their meticulously organised interface and analytics. You don't have to spend any bandwidth on this and can instead focus on moving forward with the course and reviewing your error log. The modules are set out such that it will ask you to revise your error log periodically, and there are regular mini-review tests. This proposed schedule and module order is based on the science of spaced learning & revision to maximise knowledge retention and efficiency of time spent.

The team is extremely dedicated and passionate, as well as easily approachable via the chat function. Replies usually come within the hour. Once again, Scott, Marty and Jeff, thanks a lot for everything! :)

Prior to using TTP I used the manhattan test prep books but after studying those books and following their strategies I found them to be lacking as I was only able to score around 670 on practice exams. I subsequently stumbled upon TTP and after completing their outlined courses and bolstering the subjects I struggled with, I was able to easily and consistently score 760 on the remainder of my official practice exams. Truly felt like magic.

On the day of the exam I wasn't used to the keyboard setup, the test environment, or the sticky whiteboards they made us use but regardless I was able to stick to the gameplan as provided by TTP and perform to my usual standards. This is a testamannet to the quality of instruction they provide.
