TTP: Trust The Process

TTP is a revolutionary test prep option, for a very fair price. It has more than everything you need to beat the GMAT. You just have to trust the process–one thing to note about TTP is that it takes time. To really make progress there are no shortcuts: you need to read all the lessons, complete all the tests, and do all the review. Expect to budget over 150 hours for serious progress in quant alone.

My only constructive feedback is that they might like to incorporate some OG work into the mission structure. I found going through OG problems alongside TTP to be very useful, to see the variety of possible GMAT questions.

If you are looking to beat the GMAT, TTP should be your first and only stop.

TLDR: Having tried multiple resources over the course of 12 months, this was the best that I found.

I have used GMAT official guides, Manhattan prep materials, and Math revolution. The first of these doesn't go nearly far enough to get a top score. A common thread in the unofficial materials is that they bulk out their material and call it added value. Manhattan makes you pay for a set of thick books, but when you look at the chapter structure for example they split up the strategy chapters for no other reason than that it allows them to state the same material some 4 times, as a reminder. Math revolution advertises some large number of hours of video content but if you watch the videos each opens and closes with a slow title and again, often repetitive content. This goes further than lacking substance, it detracts from the value of the product as it cuts into your time to discern the value from deliberately included BS.

TTP made the most of my time. All lessons in the quant section were direct and to the point, explaining each topic only so far as I needed to know. After completing all the material you then have a huge question bank to work through. The hard questions are probably harder than what you'll see on the day in many cases, but are excellent examples to test what you've learned. On completion of a practice test you can bookmark problems that you struggled with or guessed, then compile custom tests made up solely of those questions you found tricky. I loved that feature as I got close to test day and wanted to find problems that I knew would inch me closer to the score I wanted.

The newly completed verbal section is not as good. Sometimes it can be long-winded, again unfortunately seeming to pad itself out with examples, or oddly structured, opening with an exception to a rule then going into what the rule was.

Beyond the materials the presentation of the site is great and customer service is highly responsive.

To make the most of the course takes far more than a month in my experience, so be ready for that, but otherwise this is my number 1 recommendation for GMAT prep after you have used the official guide to understand the structure of the test.

Couldn't Have Done It Without TTP!

Premise: I used Magoosh 2 months before my first attempt on May 31 and was very disappointed in my results. I was focusing on building up my knowledge base but after the first attempt, I realized that I was lacking insight on how to practically apply my knowledge. I was looking for a personalized solution to target my weak areas and had at that point also tried e-GMAT. I found the whole pre-thinking approach confusing so I choose TTP because of all the amazing reviews. I had 1.5 months before my next and final exam attempt (due to the application deadlines).

Course: I primarily focused on Quant and just did 2 easy, 2 med, 2 hard quizzes for each topic, reviewing content for the problems I got wrong and making sure I am able to solve them quickly and correctly. I did not get through all the quant topics but covered all foundations and all the topics that show up most often. I also reviewed the high-level Most Important Concepts document TTP provides and took notes throughout the course to review a few days before the exam.

For Verbal, I took about a week to review my weak areas in each subject of CR and SC. So thankful that TTP does not use the pre-thinking method because honestly, it made me perform worse. I found the TTP Verbal explanations to be very clear and comprehensive, and I definitely felt more comfortable going into the exam.

Results: Just in that 1.5 months (142 study hours) I was able to boost my Quant score by 7 points and my Verbal score by 2 points. I wish wish wish I had more time because I know that additional practice with TTP, especially with the verbal course would take my score even higher, but honestly I am so relieved to have achieved a 710 in the short time frame I had. Couldn't have done it without TTP!

TTP : A Quant Savior

I had a very toxic relationship with Quant or maths per say. Since school, I was very weak in maths and never got the hang of it. The day came when I realized that I had to give the GMAT and had to do well in quant. I didn't know about TTP but used another 'famous' course. I took a baseline and got a 510 ( Q33 V27). After 3 months of doing that course I got a 590 (Q37 V34). I realized that I needed to put a lot of effort in Quant. One day, while scrolling through Reddit, I came across r/GMAT and a program called TTP had rave reviews. I went to their website and realized that they were quite unique in terms of selling the course. They insisted on us taking the 1$ trial and then only thinking to buy it. I did so and found the modules very very simple to understand. The easy, medium and hard tests prepare you well for what's to come. I also tried their verbal which was in pre-launch ( That's all you need for Verbal). They started from the basics and went higher up. I scheduled a call with Scott and he made me connect with my country's representative. He patiently listened to my weaknesses and analyzed stuff and got back to me with a plan and a method to achieve a great score in a month ( I had a couple of months only). I told him that I needed to score a 650 but he insisted that I can easily score a 700+ and a 48-49 in quant ( I laughed tho). I rigorously followed the plan for a month and they gave me a few days extension to finish the course which I did. I gave the official practice tests and started scoring in the 700+ range and quant in the range of 47-49. I was really impressed with myself and TTP. Then Covid struck my family and I could not strike when the iron was hot. Immediately after all of them recovered, I gave my GMAT online ( which was a disaster - 620 (Q47 V29)). I Immediately scheduled a call with them and they formulated another plan. I did the entire verbal course again and for the quant did their custom tests and read the modules in which I was making mistakes. I gave an official mock and scored a 730 ( Q49 V41). I knew I was prepared and gave the in-person exam and scored a 710 ( Q49 V 37).
From mid 30s in quant to a Q49- the entire credit goes to this amazing course.

670 to 760 in one month

I gave my first GMAT without much prep and received a score of 640. For my second attempt, I did some preparations using OG and the free OG Mocks, but still wound up getting a disappointing score of 670 which was well below my target range.

I decided to give GMAT again about a month later due to a fixed timeline, but was not sure how to approach the preparations as I needed to raise my score significantly in just a month. On researching online, I found a few reviews of TTP, and found their monthly flexible plan to be quite cheap as compared to other courses.

The quant course was well structured and helped me raise my score from 42-44 to 49. Even the verbal section was helpful as I managed to raise my score from 38-40 to 44.

The major issue I faced in quant was that despite getting most of the questions I attempted right, I was not able complete all the questions in the time given. In TTP, the practice tests were extremely helpful as were the shortcuts and tips provided, and I was able to reduce the time I required. In fact for the quant section on the actual exam I had some time left over.

TTP was extremely helpful, and I believe anyone who religiously follows their course would be easily able to achieve their target scores.

TTP was super helpful in building on my foundation in quant. I used the accelerated track since I had already done quite a bit with Manhattan Prep. TTP did a great job of introducing not only all the types of problems, but all their variations as well. It was super thorough and the biggest help was the large number of hard level chapter tests. There were especially sections like combinations, permutations, and probability that were way more in depth than some of the other prep books I had already done. I can't speak much about Verbal since I only used TTP for quant, but from a quant standpoint it was more than enough to raise my score quite a bit. Highly recommend 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.

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.
