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.

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.

I started my prep process with a Q42 on an official GMAC practice test and, within a month, had bumped up to a Q47/710 on a real GMAT exam. The math preparation in Target Test Prep is comprehensive, clear and attainable even if you haven't been steeped in quant experience for work. It's long, but worth the effort because it exposes you to almost all of the tested concepts on the quant section. The surprise benefit for me was the verbal section. I went through it fairly quickly and was able to improve from a V38 on my first official practice test to a V44/720 on my second sitting for the real GMAT exam. Thanks to Scott and team for creating a stellar product and for being personally available when I had questions or reached out.

After 4 tries and 2 years, I finally got the score I want and I am happy to have chosen TTP in my most recent GMAT preparation!

My first attempt was in March 2019, and I got a 650 (Q 47; V 32). I was in my last year of college back then, and I underestimated the difficulty of GMAT.

I started studying for the GMAT again during the pandemic, planning to retake it online in June 2020. However, after studying for about half a year and having finished all of Manhattan materials, I still wasn’t able to break the 700 barrier; I got a 680 (Q 48; V 35). My friend who took the GMAT herself and got a 760 recommended TTP to me. I was able to chat with Scott and Jeff from TTP. They gave me advice and prompted me to do a lot of introspection to understand what went wrong with my 6-month prep - my prep was not structured at all and I did not really keep track of the topics that I did not do well on.

TTP was able to help me structure my studying. In the beginning, I used TTP for Verbal as I had the greatest trouble in CR and SC (I am not a native speaker). The Verbal chapters are very thorough and I liked the chapter quizzes. The hard TTP questions are really tough, but they challenged me to really understand the concepts. Near the end of my GMAT prep, I used TTP custom tests to review for Quant. The custom tests are super helpful. I got a lot of practices on my weakest topics (such as geometry, probability, and rates) and got to build up my test-taking stamina.

After approximately 4 months of using TTP (in combination with some purchased OG practice questions/mock exams), I started scoring between 730 and 770 on the OG mock exams. Unfortunately, I scheduled my second online attempt during a period when I was super busy at work. I got 640 (Q 48; V 30). However, I knew that my work related stress had definitely affected my score and that I could do way better had I scheduled my test at a less busy time.

In April 2021, I renewed my TTP subscription and drilled myself using custom tests.
Finally, I was able to score a 770 (Q 50; V 45) in May 2021 at a test center. I would like to thank everyone at TTP for creating great content! To those who are preparing for GMAT, definitely try out TTP!

I used TPP during a period of 10 months, mostly focusing on quant but also using their verbal beta version. I studied approx 18-20 hours per week (additional to my full time job and family time - avg 2 hours during weekdays - 4 hours per day on weekends). I think I spent honestly much more time than I needed on the GMAT prep, but I guess I am a bit control freak. The TPP prep should last less than 6 months if you start from 0 (and at the same pace as me).

I started my GMAT prep with little to no knowledge of the quant part. I started with the usual OG diagnostic and quickly realized my math suc... (low 30s). So I then looked up on the internet for efficient courses and went with another provider first, which hasn't been a great experience. When looking online the reviews, I saw that TPP had the best ones, so I decided to give it a try. Honestly, I just not regret to have paid that course.

The content is just super thorough, and the tool is really intuitive and interactive. You go from lesson to lesson, everything is explained really clearly, especially for someone like me who had no prior experience of test taking and little memories of math in high school and college after 7 years of professional experience. The part that I liked the most was that TPP makes you do a loooottt of problems, and the analytics help you see your weak points.

I have taken 7 mock tests before my official GMAT and I scored Q50-51 in of the GMAT off. tests (and a q44 + q46 for the 2 manhattan ones). My final, and unique, GMAT score was a 730 with a Q49 (tests anxiety I guess). There wasn't any question on the mocks or the official test that I had not seen during my prep. The experience has been honestly enjoyable.

Thanks to Scott and TPP team!

I took the target test 5 day trial and fell in love with the way all chapters were explained and key points were mentioned in tiny boxes. Along with that they also had example questions and solutions for the concept being taught. They have small 15 question tests for each chapter/ topic and are distributed in three categories - easy, medium, hard. they also mention the accuracy that you should be getting on these mini-tests. Overall, Target Test Prep makes sure that each chapter/topic is tackled one at a time and you are almost bulletproof in that area before you move on to the next one. It helped me start from scratch and reach a Q48 level. Hands down one of the best courses for Quant.
