When starting to prep for the Gmat Focus Edition, I became a bit overwhelmed. Searching for tools to help me understand the topics and how they affected the final score, I found E-Gmat. It has been my ally since, with 3 months of practice I have reached a 695 score.
The platform has a personalized study plan section in which you can insert your starting score and target score, as well as your time dedication, and gives you a very detailed plan to tackle each subsection. Moreover, there are cementing quizzes to help ensure you don´t forget the learnings on each topic as you progress.
The courses in particular explain how to approach each type of questions, which helped me be consistent with my score regardless of the question data set. They follow a step by step process which is very easy to understand and follow.
Would definitely recommend to anyone committed to ace the Gmat Focus Edition.

I believe it is very beneficial to get a course to study for the GMAT. A course will structure your learning and make studying more efficient/faster. I looked through different providers and believed TTP to have the highest quality for a reasonable price. At first, GMAT seemed extremely challenging and foreign, but TTP does a great job at building your confidence for the exam.

I studies for around 100 hours on my own with GMAT materials and if I could go back, I would have bought TTP from the start. Content was so complete that I got a 675 by basically just using TTP problem sets.

TTP mainly teaches you with lessons that are to be read. I found this to be great because you can develop your reading skills as you go through the course. Also, I believe it is more engaging and a faster way to learn than videos. For me, although watching videos can be informative, retention is not that big because it is easy to get distracted or just be entertained by the video. By reading there is a need to put more effort into processing the information. I found that just sticking to the process was very useful.

If you have any questions, I liked that I could ask the TTP at any time and get an answer or reference to materials that would help me comprehend a subject.

BTW, I graduated from undergrad on 2023 but option is not available on GMATClub.

TTP is Great for Foundations (Especially on the Quant Side)

TTP is a great resource to use for GMAT prep. Would recommend to supplement this with official questions and videos from the GMATNinja verbal and DI series

Great material to go through for quant related topics, lots of questions, incredible depth of materials and explanations. Some questions in the material are also slightly harder than the actual GMAT which helps you prepare well for any unexpected hard questions on the actual test.

The verbal section dives a bit too deep into question types too quickly, and I feel there is opportunity to add material that helps students holistically identify traps and choose between the final 2 (most confusing) answer choices. It's useful to start off with TTP for a topic like this, and then supplement with other resources if you feel your score is plateauing

I absolutely recommend this product. I would have been lost in my GMAT studying without it, and its detailed structure made it easy to create a study plan to follow. It covered Quant topics in detailed, manageable steps, and I was able to easily relearn concepts I hadn't seen in years. There are tons of practice problems to work through at different levels of difficulty, which really allowed me to focus on what I was struggling with. The platform also gives test-taking advice and strategies, which are supplemented throughout Quant, Verbal, and Data Insights lessons. It has additional tools such as flashcards as well, which were especially useful for memorizing equations and such.

Journey to 695 (Q90, V82, D81) - 98th Percentile

Course e-GMAT Online Intensive

Hi everyone,

I recently took the GMAT FE Exam and scored a 695! I wanted to share my prep journey with eGMAT as a working professional.

The Journey:
I purchased eGMAT's 4-month access in January as I planned to take my exam in April. I took a fresh mock to benchmark myself and scored a 585 before starting my prep. While I intended to start in January, due to workload and personal issues, I couldn't get much done in January and February.

In March, I made a study plan using eGMAT's automated Planner with scores from my mocks as inputs to chart a complete pathway for my prep. This is where the course really helped me, especially in my weakest (now strongest) areas like CR, Quant - Algebra, and DI - MSR. Thanks to its streamlined structure, I was able to complete my prep by the end of March. Cementing Quizzes, Concept videos, and Expert support were essential for my preparation. After completing my preparation of each section and topic, I took my first official mock and scored 675 – a 90-point improvement from just the prep itself. In the last two weeks, I focused mainly on solving a ton of questions from OG and eGMAT's scholarium. I took three additional mocks with scores ranging from 645 to 685.

As I was in my final few days before the Exam, I was still scoring very randomly in CR from 30th to 80th, and I didn't seem to break through this roadblock. This is where revisiting concept videos helped to reimagine and correct my approach for CR, which ultimately helped me to get a 100th in CR on the official Exam! For Quant, I was pretty decent from the start, so it helped me to cut short my prep time to four weeks, but I always got a couple of questions incorrect on mocks and practice tests. So I took some more cementing quizzes in relaxed mode to understand that my main flaw was around missing a couple of details/traps. I came up with a QC approach for each question to double-check every answer on Quant, ultimately helping me to score a Q90! For DI, I believe eGMAT Scholarium is an excellent reflection of the real GMAT questions, and I just relied on them for my overall prep.

Tips for Test Takers:
1. Practice makes perfect: Especially in Quant. There are only certain kinds of questions GMAT throws at you, so prepare them well.
2. Quality Checks are important to avoid traps: Quant and DI are full of traps, so it's important that you read the question correctly and just have a quick 10-15 second check for the answer.
3. Bookmarking: Helpful in Quant/Verbal. Please avoid in DI. Only bookmark a maximum of three questions per section.
4. Navigating test anxiety: The real exam might seem harder to some folks (including me), but it's important to understand that if it seems hard to you, then you're probably scoring well! Don't overthink it! Treat it like any other mock and manage to take breaks well to re-energize during the exam.

Reflecting on my journey, I'm grateful for the support of eGMAT's resources and mentors for helping me get one step closer to a top B-School. I hope my experience and tips serve as a helpful guide for others preparing for the GMAT FE Exam. Best of luck to all!

The Course is really good and budget friendly.
Quant: The kind of questions on scholaranium is good, you have the option to create quizzes based on your requirement like may be mixed quiz or for a specific topic. The analytics help you to identify how you fare among all the others. It help you to identify your weak areas as well.

2. Verbal : Again, I feel the scholaranium is the best part, the questions and amount of practice you can there to solidify your understanding is really great. Helped me improve from v79to v83.

3. Data Insight : The questions are similar to actual test, but again the main thing is the amount of question and quality of question you have to practice is great. It helped to control my anxiety with lengthy DI questions. Their MSR error log is great. Really helps you o identify which bucket your mistake fall into

I think along with all above their LMP program is really great initiative, helps you to startegize your study paln, keep you focused and motivated. This is a much needed thing as may be working prof you may not have time to do all the planning on your own. They can help with this. In fact the startegic plan and the scholaranium are the best part of egmat and really helped me reach 705.

TTP is a comprehensive, effective, and accessible GMAT test prep program that enables candidates to score a 705+ score. TTP was perfect for reconfirming my foundations for the quant and DI sections. I was able to raise my score by 120 points in two months through TTP's mission learning approach. The service is perfect for forcing you to lock down concepts that you may have learned in the past but have lost some memory of. I really appreciate the number of reps TTP had me do to make sure that I really understood a concept. The questions accurately mirror the questions on the actual exam and comprehensively cover all of the sections in a coherent manner. The software intersperses highly beneficial sections on test-taking strategies and time management skills tailored for the GMAT focus.

I highly recommend TTP to anyone who is serious about improving their GMAT score.

The TTP course was a game changer for me. I took the test on december 2023 and got a 575 score. Then took the course for 3 months and achieved a 665 score on march 2024.

I think that Target Test Prep stands oput for 3 main reasons:
1. They explain the Quant concepts in a very simple and clear way.
2. The course not only explains the different concepts that appear on the test, but also all the many different ways in which the test will ask questions about each subject.
3. The course constantly reinforces previous chapters with quizzes and assignments so that you do not forget what you learned in the beginning.

E-GMAT is the most comprehensive and efficient tool for you to improve on the GMAT! I am a college student running two businesses, and I improved my score over 100 points in a month using E-GMAT. They don't just give you problems and answers. They teach you how to efficiently and effectively solve problems. I struggled most on time and how to break down problems when I started. One of the best things about E-GMAT is they teach you how to “Pre-think,” which is a strategy used in Verbal and Data Insights to save a ton of time and get the right answer before evaluating the answers. Also, E-GMAT has lesson plans that teach you the information needed to solve the problems and the techniques to apply the information to solve complex problems. They have a huge library of practice problems that you can work through. Each question has a comprehensive solution explanation along with strategies on how to solve it. Just as your study journey changes, the platform is also very adaptive. E-GMAT keeps a record of all of your practice and improvement. This allowed me to see which types of questions I struggled with the most. Lastly, I was able to assemble practice quizzes made up of problems that I got wrong or took a lot of time on. Using these, I was able to become faster at complex quantitative problems and data sufficiency problems. I highly recommend E-GMAT to the people who do not want tricks, but who actually want a tool bag to solve complex problems and score in the top percentiles.

TTP was amazing and helped me get my dream score. I went from 555 to 675 with their help!

When I first started studying, I knew my biggest challenge would be the quant section. On my first practice test I got 25th percentile in quant. On my first official test (before finding TTP), I got 35th percentile on quant. TTP ended up helping me get my quant score up to 71st percentile, which when paired with the rest of my score, helped me score in the 96th percentile overall!

What mainly separates them from the others is that they assume you know nothing about math at the beginning. This was crucial for me because I had not taken a math course in 6 years!
