When I first started thinking seriously about the GMAT, I was overwhelmed. Everyone I spoke to seemed to have a different opinion on the “best” resource, and I didn’t know where to begin. Eventually, I landed on Target Test Prep (TTP) after hearing about it from friends and browsing GMAT Club reviews. I can confidently say that choosing TTP was one of the best decisions I made in my prep journey.

At the beginning, I was inconsistent. Work and life made it hard to carve out enough time. From September to December, I averaged maybe 5 hours a week — not nearly enough. During the holidays, I realized I had only completed about 10–15% of the course. It was sobering: TTP had everything I needed, but I wasn’t using it to its full potential.

What helped me at this stage was the structure of TTP. The program maps everything out: theory → practice → review. There was no guesswork. Even though I wasn’t putting in enough hours yet, I never felt “lost” about what to study next.

In January, I made a commitment: 10+ hours per week, non-negotiable. TTP became my study partner. I’d log in, follow the study plan, take chapter tests, and move on. No wasted time wondering if I was doing the right thing.

By March, I had completed about 60% of the course. That’s when I noticed a big shift — patterns started clicking, problem types became recognizable, and I wasn’t intimidated by difficult quant questions anymore. Verbal also improved because the logical process I built through TTP’s lessons carried over into eliminating wrong answer choices.

Once I was ~85% through the course, I focused on timing and building test stamina. TTP’s hard-level practice questions were a game-changer — in many cases, tougher than what I saw on the real GMAT. This gave me a lot of confidence.

I did make one mistake: I rushed to take the test too early after finishing the theory. TTP strongly recommends leaving a few weeks at the end for mocks and review, and they’re absolutely right. When I retested later, after doing custom mixed sets and simulating test conditions properly, the results spoke for themselves.

What I Loved About TTP:
Structure & Clarity: No second-guessing what to study. You just follow the plan.
Depth: Every concept is covered thoroughly. If you put in the time, gaps get filled.
Question Bank: Huge variety, with difficulty levels that stretch you.
Analytics: I could clearly see where I was weak and target those areas.

Takeaways & Recommendations:
Start early and go hard. It’s better to do 12–15 hours a week for a few months than drag it out for a year.
Finish the chapters. Even if you think you “get it,” the later practice builds the skills you’ll need under time pressure.
Simulate test conditions. Don’t pause, don’t skip — treat your prep like the real exam.

Leave time at the end. Mocks and custom problem sets are CRITICAL.
