Course e-GMAT 2M Focus

Location Online

I recently finished taking my GMAT and scored a 665 and was able to achieve my target score through the help of e-GMAT course.
One of the features I like about the course is its structure and well-defined milestones and steps that help you track your performance and growth. They’ve divided each of the three sections into 3 stages which allows you to quantify your progress and strengthen your concepts.
While the course content for all three sections is well formulated and helps you improve, I specifically recommend the Data Insight section. The detailed solutions and approach help you not only understand how to solve such questions but also help in building an error log that can vastly change your score. Also, the wide variety of questions prepare you sufficiently well for the exam. 
Lastly, the Last Mile Program and mentorship provided helped me immensely in formulating a strategy that would help me achieve my target score. It gave me actionable insights and steps to increase my score. It was kind of the last piece of the puzzle that took my score from 565-585 range to 665. 

I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a self-paced course which can keep them motivated and consistent in their journey. There could be many sources for practice questions and preparation but what makes e-GMAT unique for me is the way it helps you define goals and a path to reach them. It can be hard sometimes to stay motivated while managing a full-time career and resume studies for long intervals after a couple of years. Some topics may seem easier to grasp based on personal interest but others might feel very challenging, in such a scenario one might likely feel discouraged or disappointed. e-GMAT content has a core value associated with it which is - that as long as you follow the process, you’ll be able to solve the question - This is something that got drilled into me and helped me believe that no matter the setback I can push myself and achieve my target score.

I got a 695 in GMAT Focus with the help of TTP study material. I used it mainly for verbal and DI as I was already good at quant.

I went carefully through all the CR and RC lessons and it helped me build strong foundation and the practice problems helped me strengthen the concepts.

I was able to apply techniques and get more questions right.
I used mock tests to analyse my learning and I saw consistent improvement. My score in mock went from 595 to 675.

I liked the text explanations to questions, they were detailed and thorough. Course teaches you the right way to attack problems and avoid tricks.

TTP is best if you want to improve your score.

E-Gmat's way of mastering the skills

Course e-GMAT 6M Focus

Location Online

It has been a long journey from 615 to 695 where E-Gmat has played a crucial role. Also thanks to Abha she has helped a lot in this roller coaster journey.
After attempting my 1st scholaranium mock I realised that my weak areas were verbal and DI as I was barely able to finish the sections. Being a working professional I could not do this on my own because of work commitments so decided to join a course based on my friends previous experience with the E-Gmat course and my research I decided to join E-Gmat.
The Structure of the course helped me learn and apply the concepts after each module this application based approach increased my learning outcomes tremendously and at the same time i was able to do more focused prep.
In Verbal CR Pre-thinking is game changer trust me it works wonders once you start applying the process and this skill is leveraged in RC and DI as well. After going through the modules the time for answering the verbal questions decreased and was able to complete the sections without much time pressure.
DI section caters to most of the diverse questions asked on the Gmat with some of them quite challenging to prepare for more difficult questions. The process based approach in DI helps a lot in reducing the time and increasing the overall accuracy.
Quant being my strength area the course recommended a P.A.C.E based approach so i was spending more time on sectionals rather than learning the concepts again.
I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to score high. Trust the process their are a lot of Distractions related to courses but I would recommend anyone who is reading this that trust the instructors and the process. Gmat is not about solving to many questions but learning from each and every question.
Being part of the LMP program helped me in the last phase of my Gmat journey where even after fluctuations in my test score through Abha's mentorship and strategic reviewing I was able to finalize and implement my strategy for the D-day.
Mocks are a crucial aspect of testing the skills of an aspirant and the Sigma-X-Mock comes close to the actual test as I only attempted Sigma-X-Mock and 2 Mba.com mocks so the mocks provided are enough to prepare for the exam also their is a great feature that after a mock for the sections we don't perform well their are additional questions added to the scholaranium based on the latest attempt.
One of the best parts is the availability and flexibility of contacting the mentor over the Email helps a lot in resolving any doubts.

Target Test Prep is the only course you need. After reading some Reddit reviews, I landed on target and I couldn't be more happy with my decision. When I initially wrote my diagnostic test, I got a 675. So I was already quite happy but I really wanted to push for seven M7. so I completed 100% of the course in 2 1/2 months I then wrote the rest of the practice tests on mba.com. I finished off with a 725 on the focus edition and I've gotten interviews at four out of the seven M7 schools. I strongly recommend target as I think the structure is perfect. They show you all the formulas and strategies you need and that someone who went in completely blind and only used TTP, I couldn't be more happy with the score I came out with.

Target Test Prep - An Excellent Fundamental Course

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

Location Online

Target Test Prep is a great course. It is long and some complain about this but it is long for a good reason - it is thorough. Every fundamental I faced on the GMAT Focus, from all sections, I was exposed to in the Target Test Prep course.

Target Test Prep really thrives for those who are determined to do well, will stick with a plan, and avoid shortcuts (hint: there's no shortcut to doing well on the GMAT or any standardized test). In terms of a fundamental course that can be self paced and as someone who has traditionally never achieved an above average score on any standardized exams (grade school standardized exams, SAT and LSAT) and having taken different formats of prep courses (instructor led/self paced/hybrid), I can say with confidence for a self motivated individual who can learn on their own, Target Test Prep will not disappoint. I've never encountered a prep course that focuses on perfecting the fundamentals as much as Target Test Prep, and this genuinely paid off the most for me.

Some differences in my experience that will likely be different than others experiences include the following. I had a decent Verbal score to begin with because I had previously prepped for the LSAT and GMAT Verbal was somewhat similar to LSAT Verbal. Therefore, I had a bit of practice with similar questions. Nonetheless, I still improved my Verbal score between my first practice exam and the one Official GMAT Focus attempt I did. The last note is you must give yourself time to complete the course (or at least come as close as possible to completing the course). Admittedly, I did not complete the course entirely as I was in a time crunch to apply to my preferred programs before a due date. I spent 4.5 months between starting my Target Test Prep course and writing the Official GMAT Focus. If you don't complete as much of the course as possible, aka the fundamentals they introduce, you will likely be missing out on valuable fundamentals that you may encounter.

695 Score in 1st attempt, with a 6 week long preparation

Course Target Test Prep Flexible Prep

I come from Chile and I have an unconventional background (not math or business related). I had an injury that kept me for some weeks out of work, and I had to choose between watching movies and series, or doing something productive for my life. I chose the latter, and decided to give GMAT a first try with 6 just weeks to study. I had to do it efficiently and start studying in a disciplined fashion with a well structured study plan right away, and Target Test Prep was the solution. I had a "diagnosis test" within the course, in which I got a bad quant score... but by dividing the study plan's tasks in my available time, and having an intense routine, I was able to achieve my goal of getting a great score efficiently. I was worried about having to take the test a second time, due to having to study while working not being ideal, but it was fortunately not necessary. I did 100% of the "learning fase" of the course, and had to compress the "practice test phase" by taking 2 official mock tests a day, on the week of my test day. I was somewhat worried by having an initial 565 score in the first mock, but it was due to a bad time management. Practice gave me confidence, the quant part of the course gave me the skills I needed, and with the verbal and data insights sections I could understand the logic underlying those questions and face the test with a solid strategy.

Course Target Test Prep Maximum Learning

The TTP GMAT Focus course was crucial in my preparation and ultimate success on the GMAT Focus. One of the most notable aspects of the course was how effectively it simplified complex concepts, making them easy to remember. The extensive practice provided was invaluable, especially in making test day feel manageable. The course offers a wealth of well-organized content, covering all the essential topics of the GMAT. The ability to take custom tests was a significant advantage, allowing me to focus on my weak areas and strengthen my understanding.
In particular, the course was very useful for consolidating my math knowledge. The large number of quant questions and their varying levels of difficulty were crucial in helping me achieve a score of 90 in Quant. The rigorous practice questions were often more challenging than the actual exam, which made the real test feel less stressful and more straightforward. This rigorous preparation was a key factor in my success.
Additionally, the course provides excellent strategic advice for test day, which I found incredibly helpful. The tips and strategies for tackling questions based on their difficulty level were particularly beneficial. They helped me approach the exam with a clear plan, ensuring I could manage my time effectively and answer questions efficiently.
When I first started studying, I was overwhelmed by the breadth of topics covered in the GMAT and struggled to organize my study schedule. However, the GMAT Focus course helped me structure my time and goals, guiding me on what to study and target in each session. This organization was vital in my preparation, ensuring I was well-prepared for every aspect of the exam.
Overall, the TTP GMAT Focus course is highly recommended for anyone preparing for the GMAT. Its comprehensive content, strategic advice, and rigorous practice make it an excellent resource for achieving a high score

The Target Test Prep Course was really very helpful. I used it especially to strengthen my verbal and data insights. The materials provided for verbal not only taught me few tricks I should be adopting during the exam but also helped me get some fundamental aspects regarding each topic cleared. Also for each topic there are a lot of questions one can practice from. This gives the candidate enough exposure to GMAT like questions. Also, if we answer any question wrong, then the course allows you to choose why you answered it wrong. As you do this activity for various questions, it helps you identify what the most common mistake is while you are answering questions. Target test prep is highly recommended for all aspiring GMAT Focus takers!

Great product! I scored beyond my target. Well worth the money if you take the GMAT seriously. Chapter tests for Target Test Prep are significantly harder than the GMAT itself, so you will be more than ready when test day comes along. Simple lessons that are easy to understand and gives lots of practice. I was fortunate to be able to dedicate all of my time to studying, but I can very easily see someone working TTP studying and tests into their down time while working a job. The timing of practice tests and global reviews, paired with the test taking strategy section which the student takes sporadically throughout the course are all very helpful as well!
Cannot speak highly enough about TTP!!
