Strengths:

Impressively detailed QUANT instruction.
The sheer number of questions.
The analytics.
Good instruction on HOW to approach study not just WHAT to do.

Would make the product better:

Guidance on the perils of spending too long on individual sections methodically without continuously reviewing and refreshing previous chapters (all of them).

If you are a rote learner, I would advise you to seek out uncomfortable question styles at the end of your prep.

I came from a very weak QUANT background and I have historically been someone who is quite anxious taking standardised exams to the extent that it impacts my performance.

Some highlights from using this course are: (1) that it explains early on HOW to study and not just WHAT to study, i.e., the correct-answer at all costs oriented mindset is why I was able to develop such strong VERBAL skills in CR, (2) the incredibly detailed understanding-oriented approach to QUANT was very helpful given that I am someone who previously struggled a lot with math.

That said, one constructive criticism is that if you are someone who is traditionally very rote and you have a strong memory, I would advise you to seek out uncertainty and discomfort in the OG bank at the end of your prep. Because I crave patterns I found myself getting really high analytics accuracy (90%) on TTP tests but comparatively poorer scores when handling truly uncertain problems on mock exams.
