Great experience with the team. I worked with Chris, who was very deliberate and caring and gave advice even after the course had ended. He took the time to understand my strengths and weaknesses and tailored a study plan that helped me stay focused and efficient. The course materials were comprehensive and well-structured, with clear explanations and a logical progression through each concept. The analytics dashboard also made it easy to track my progress and identify areas for improvement. What really stood out was the personal attention and continued support—even after I completed the program. I felt genuinely invested in. Highly recommend Target Test Prep to anyone serious about improving their GMAT score.

I had never done a standardized test similar the GMAT before I decided to undergo a gruesome GMAT training for my business school application. Needless to say I felt daunted from the get go. Compound that with a busy work schedule and being out of school for quite a few years, I really needed some proper guide to prepare for the GMAT.
After scouring the internet for reviews of GMAT training courses, I eventually settled for MGMAT’s 9 weeks live online course. I chose the program mainly because I needed a structured study schedule that would instill discipline to my routine. Long story short, the course worked and I was able to get my grades to 700+.
My class was Saturday noon and the entire class consisted of 5 students. Chris Peckover was our instructor. Chris was very patient with us and really made an effort to break down the teachings to us in a simple yet entertaining manner. As a math geek, Chris was also the most alive when we went over the quant materials. Over the 2+ months that I attended the classes, I can definitely feel the value adds from taking the classes. For example, in doing the quant questions, Chris taught us quite a few short cuts and neat tricks which I found useful on the exam, though I underestimated the values of such when I originally learned them in class.
My message for people reading reviews, trying to decide whether to attend such class is this: if you have a busy life and are in need of quick and efficient ways to prepare for the GMAT in a disciplined manner, I would recommend the 9 weeks online class. The classes is a great source for you to get your scores up to 700+ by undergoing a structured routine and taking advantage of your instructor’s expertise. The interactive classes are, in my opinion, better than self-study classes because you get to experience the instructors, which are MGMAT’s (and Veritas’s) best resources.

I am so thankful for Manhattan Prep. I came from the nonprofit world and I’m also in my early 30’s which means I haven’t practiced math in over 10 years. When I took a practice test I got a 520 and I was hoping to just break 600, which seemed like an incredible feat. I had Chris Peckover as my teacher and his energy and positivity towards me encouraged me to to persevere. He’s a genius, has strong EQ (which means he knows how to explain things to his students in a way they can understand) and has terrific energy. I’m pursuing my second masters and so I’ve experienced a lot of teachers. Chris is one of the best teachers I have ever had. He really wants to see his students succeed. I also highly highly recommend the post-exam assessment after you take your first GMAT. They review all your past practice tests plus your actual GMAT to help give you helpful strategies. I took the GMAT twice (620, 670). I just received my acceptance letter into the school of my choice, USC! So thankful to Manhattan Prep and Chris Peckover.
