TTP does an amazing job providing you both the resources to study the material tested on the GMAT and also to quiz yourself on test content. From a Quant standpoint, TTP really covers most questions you will see on the exam.

From a Verbal standpoint, TTP also does a great job teaching you how to approach problems. TTP's Critical Reasoning section is excellent and I highly recommend it. The course also goes into very good detail when it comes to Sentence Correction and is continually adding new problems for users to test themselves.

For me, TTP was my main study resource and it really helped me achieve the score I attained.

TTP Vital for High Score (750, Q50, V41)

I started my prep by going through OG practice tests and after 4 months, I saw no improvements. I looked for a better way to improve my score from my baseline of 670. I had a background in math but I couldn't improve my quant score. I did my research and TTP had the highest reviews and the best testimonials. I enrolled and completed the entire course. After I completed the course, I took a mock test and got a Q50. From that mock test and on to 5 other mocks and my two official scores, I maintained a Q50 throughout.

The key to TTP is the emphasis on a strong foundation. When I reviewed my error log, any issue always related back to a problem that I knew the foundation but I completed the problem incorrectly. This was important to me because it ensured I was never lost on the test. Any time you take the GMAT you need to put yourself in the best position possible to succeed and that is only possible by knowing every concept, which TTP guarantees.

For anyone looking to improve their quant or maintain a high quant score, TTP is the answer. The custom testing allows you to stay sharp over time and keep quizzing before you take the official test.

I can't say enough good things about TTP. The support from their team when I encountered any issue was exceptional. They supported me throughout the process and even spoke to test criteria outside of quant.

TTP was a god send. I was really nervous taking the GMAT and only wanted to take it once so I put my all into studying (studied for about 2 months, 4-6 hours each day). I was also working at the time. Everything with TTP was incredibly helpful, well laid out, and easy to understand. I could take it at my own pace and had everything mapped out for me. seeing my analytics also helped me understand where I normally make mistakes.

The staff answered my questions quickly and politely regardless of how many dumb questions I asked. Would also recommend their verbal section (which is still in beta testing). It was invaluable for me in sentence correction.

Couldn't have gotten my 760 without TTP verbal / quant.

Target Test Prep Is The Most Effective GMAT Guide

I began my GMAT journey at the beginning of the New Year and was recommended by a friend to use Target Test Prep (TTP) as a guide. The TTP Curriculum was thorough and gave me great insight into the different types of questions that would be asked on the exam. When I was first introduced to the course, only a guide for the Quantitative Section was available. After completing the guide for quant, I was consistently scoring at least a Q49 on Official Practice Exams. My struggles came on the Exam’s Verbal Section. Shortly after my first few practice exams, TTP released its Verbal Course and I saw an instant score improvement. My verbal score quickly jumped from low 30s to low 40s. After 2 in person test cancellations due to COVID-19 and a technical error on my first online exam, I was finally able to complete my first GMAT Exam, scoring a 730 (Q49/V41).

Hi. They do have a verbal "beta" course that they have been testing for maybe a year now.... it is still being in development and perfected. I think the reviewer gained access as a part of the beta available to "Quant Course" customers.

I can remember the exact moment that I had discovered Target Test Prep. I had been using the Economist GMAT course for about a month (primarily for quant, because my verbal was decent) and I had taken a practice test and actually scored lower than my diagnostic. I am not one to panic, but I was truly at stress level 1000. I was learning some tricks and overall strategies, but really felt like I was not getting a deep mastery of the content and also thought that I would never truly understand the GMAT material.

In a panic induced set of google searches, I stumbled upon a Reddit forum where people had been praising Target Test Prep. I started a trial and even reached out to the team at TTP asking if it was even possible for me to get to 700+ with a baseline of 27. They were very reassuring that if I just took the time and went through the course, that I would be fine. I really needed that confidence boost to know I wasn't about give up my entire life for an endeavor that was in vain. I trusted them and put in the work. I don't know that I've ever had to work at something so hard in my life. It took me significantly longer than the "3 months" that you see people post about.

I had read so many times that what makes the GMAT so difficult is that you can't really study for it. That is nothing farther from the truth. It is just incredibly difficult to study for it. However if you put in the work, you can certainly do it. Additionally, even though I only maxed out at a 45 in the official test, I was scoring 49's pretty consistently on the practice tests and I think anxiety just got the better of me. And when I would review my missed questions, I would always know how to solve them. I think if I would have had time to take the test a couple more times, I would have easily gotten a 49 or 50+.

Long story short: just start with Target Test Prep and save yourself the trouble of using anyone else. It's not a short cut, but it is a key to acing the GMAT. Overall a 230 point improvement from where I started (including verbal).

Q29 to Q48 with TTP

TTP's engaging lessons & structured content helped me improve my Quant score from a diagnostic Q29 to a game-day Q48. Other products were nowhere near as effective!

TTP Quant was a great option for someone like me, who has not had to do GMAT-style math in many years. I am solidly in their target demographic (people who need a lot of help on Quant).

On test day Quant went about as well as I felt it had ever gone. I was right on pace, finishing with :30s left in the section. I was very deliberate about DS choices, and credit the OG problems with teaching me to be careful with spotting traps. I caught 3 separate traps TTP had drilled into me and felt proud of myself by the end of this section.

TTP solves for speed by driving content mastery

I used TTP to re-study after an initial attempt that fell short of my goals (720). While studying for my first attempt, I did too many practice problems while failing to account for gaps in understanding. By using TTP, I more effectively mastered the content and became faster organically. I would recommend using TTP from the beginning to avoid two attempts. I studied for about a month and a half between my first and second attempts, and used the accelerated study plan, as I already had a decent foundation of knowledge. If you are using the plan from the beginning of your studies, take your time and use the regular plan. There is quite a lot of content.

Even though I had covered the full syllabus from another platform, I was stuck at Q45/46. Being a non-native speaker, Verbal was always going to be my weak area so I had to maximize on my strength, i.e., Quant.

One of my friends who was also preparing for the GMAT advised me to try TTP for Quant. I used TTP to fill the gaps in my basics and fine-tune my Quant prep. After using it for 10-15 days, I was able to score 49-50 regularly in the GMAC mocks and ended up with a Q50 on the real test.

I started the Target Test Prep Dedicated Study plan (4 months) after getting Q39 in my first GMAT practice exam, and realizing I had a lot of quant material I needed to learn. There is an extensive amount of content - I spent 2-3 hours a day going over the material six out of seven days in the week, and still wasn't able to finish all of the chapters within the 4 months, so I purchased another month of the flexible plan.

The great part about the course is how straightforward it is - you study the concepts, review the concepts via chapter tests, and review even more practice questions after a series of chapters. The chapters can feel a bit overkill at times with how thorough the practice questions go into concepts, but it helps you feel prepared as most of the ways quant questions can be asked on the GMAT are covered.

I do recommend supplementing your study with questions from the GMAT Official Guide. In my first GMAT attempt, I scored Q44, which is definitely an improvement, but I was thrown off a bit by how the questions were worded on the exam. With more exposure to official GMAT questions, I likely would have spent less time trying to figure out what the questions were asking. (My nervousness did not help either!)

TTP Quant is the most amazing program I've ever come across for preparing for GMAT Quant. It increased my Quant score from a 41 to a 49. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I love the UI/UX design of the website, first of all. It is really easy to navigate. In addition, the lesson plans are really well-designed for students who may not be the best at standardized testing. TTP designed their Quant study plan in a way that forces you to think the way that the GMAC writers think. If you stick to the study plan, your score is guaranteed to improve to your goal.
