Target Test Prep is one of the best quantitative course out there in the market if you have 3 to 4 months. I took the course for about 6 months and I improved from Q40 to Q48. I put in a lot of time, around 250 hours and it definitely paid off. The course includes excellent prep material and practice questions. The practice questions are of high quality and if you complete 100% of the course, you will definitely get more than Q45.
One thing I want to add is that Jeff is an excellent human being who is always ready to help you and I want to mention here that I did not have the money for 2 months and he gave me the course for free for 2 months. So out of the 6 months, I only paid for 4 months. Hats off Jeff! I hope your Verbal course also rocks the market.

I used Egmat and Gmat Club test in 2017 to prepare for my Gmat test. At first, because of many positive reviews from other students, I decided to buy 2 accounts for me and my wife. We both apply for PhD program in Business School. We strongly believed in EGMAT methodology and study hard following the courses instruction. However, Egmat is only good for reviewing the SC concepts. The lecture is very long and tedious. Most of the concept in Emat is covered in Manhattan SC.
The practice question in Egmat is not as good as Official questions from GMAC. Many questions collected from GMAT club and other sources. Many SC question is modified from OG questions. Quatitative question explanation is too long, the solution method is not good for 2 minutes in GMAT.
If you want moderate course for the beginner, Egmat can be an ok one. But If you want higher score than 650, we need to study nearly all OG questions. Please do not believe the claim that you can get 700+ just if you Egmat materials alone. It is misleadingly advertised.
The Experts Global GMAT Prep Program is very well built with a lot of conceptual videos and sufficiently rich amount of exercises with 15 mock tests with a detailed analysis.It gives sufficient importance to all the sections and helps students achieve a well rounded score.
The major benefit of the Program is its close relevance with the actual test. The mocks are well prepared and extremely consistent with the actual test day experience.
Another major plus is its Verbal program. It lays immense stress on improving a students concepts which is very helpful during a dynamic exam such as the GMAT.
My score was around to 36. But I decided that I need to boost my score. After experiencing many GMAT providers, I decided to give TTP a try. I had a long discussion with Jeff and then I registered 5 days for $1 to know more about the course. I went through the whole sections. I discovered that TTP is the right choice for my study math and best fit for my education style. I achieved in many exams 43-44 but the last exam score was hit by family issues right before the exam which made it 42.
Pros:
1- I started to choose what my target score is. Based on it, the system suggests what modules I must focus.
2- The modules could be arranged in Tree plan that built my skills gradually.
3- Each module is divided to sub-topic. This is important to me to learn each idea behind the big topic. In the exam I faced problems that were new for me but it was a weakness.
4- Exams related to each topic were organized in easy-medium- difficult setup. It helped me to build confidence. There are extra problems in each topic to cover my weakness, in case needed.
5- The analytics is easy to follow and could provide flag, if performance deteriorates.
6- The chat panel provides immediate support so that I can’t wait for reply. Jeff and Scott are doing a great job to answer the questions. If something needs more discussion, I can email them and get the answer almost in same day.
Cons:
1- The test questions need to be numbered as It will help to trace it in combination with my test log.
2- I would like to see verbal section to have one platform.
3- To see more tricks for solving math problems.
I had not done any math for almost a decade, and had signed up for another, much more expensive GMAT prep course. I took the actual test, and scored a 580. My weakness was the quant for sure, so I tried Target Test Prep. My goal was to get a 44 on the quant. In six months of studying, Target Test Prep helped me pull my quant score up from a 36 (580 total) to a 47 (680 total). I didn’t expect to do that well, but the Target Test Prep system is structured so that all you have to do is follow their curriculum and you will see significant improvement in your quant score. If quant is an issue for you, Target Test Prep is the most effective way to learn and make positive progress. I recommend using TTP first to improve your foundational quant understanding, then leveraging a more broad program to help with the verbal. The GMAT takes time and effort, but you can do well on it if you work hard!
I used TTP to improve my quant score, and I couldn't be happier! I took the GMAT my first time hoping that I would score around 700 because that is what I kept getting on my practice tests. When I went to sit for the actual exam, I was deflated when I saw that my score was a 690 (Q44, V41). After about a week, I decided that I needed to have another shot at it. I registered for another try that was two months away, and I signed up for TTP. My verbal score was good, but I knew that I needed to work on my quant. I studied only to improve my quant, and when I took the test I was amazed! I scored 740 (Q48, V44)!!! TTP helped me to gain a strong understanding of the concepts I needed to improve drastically. The program was simple and I could study just as much as I needed. I would definitely recommend TTP to anyone looking to improve their quant score!
Hey, it is apparent that your verbal score is quite high. May you suggest me any course on verbal please. I struggle to find proper one.
Thanks
I like the tons of resources that are available through Magoosh GMAT Premium, especially things beyond just the lessons. I like their study plans and video explanations. The detailed explanation for video lessons under each and every topic is super helpful. This was a fantastic resource! I will caveat that statement by saying that I already had a foundation in test-taking, content, and strategies from my Manhattan class and courses, along with previous CATs, but the videos (especially Quant) that Magoosh provides for each topic, not to mention the videos for EACH question, are beyond helpful. I think it's hard to go wrong with this.
I enrolled in the verbal course after my first attempt in which I scored 660. I enrolled in the E-gmat verbal online course 3 days after my exam and found the course extremely well developed.I have a background in teaching and I know how much effort goes into making dynamic slides, let alone the videos and E-gmat has done a tremendous job in making the videos interactive with precise content. With the help of the course I scored 700 (V33 to V38) in my second attempt within a month. The E-gmat Verbal course is a must to get a good verbal score.
I took the Magoosh Premium course. The content is good, but I wished that after each module, there were more practice questions. 3-4 questions dont seem to cut the mark. The concepts were easy to understand and broken down into different modules.
The Magoosh questions bank is phenomenal in terms of quality and difficulty level. I do wish they had more "mock tests" like Manhattan Prep.
I also liked the Analytical Writing section. I used a lot of tips to score a 6 in the essay.
Also as a note, I did not find the course comprehensive and used other resources.
4.5 for SC content
2.5-3.0 for RC and CR content.
I used the e-GMAT SC module for my GMAT prep. The SC course is good but the software/platform is extremely buggy. I kept logging out and had a lot of time logging back in.
The concepts are easy to understand and the tests in between drill them down. Since the course is not comprehensive, I supplemented it with other materials.
I was not that impressed with the RC and CR courses. I pretty much prepared for that using other materials.
I was good in Quant and hence didn't use their Quant courses.
Is the 530 self reported score your score on the gmat? Why would you give 5 stars if you only got a 42 in math since that is not a high math score? You said your score was 43-44 but then you scored 42 so that's a DECREASE!!! That number of stars makes no sense.
I was not clear. I achieved those scores from 36 to 43-44 but I deleted the scores. In my last score, I had sever family that hit me before the exam which made me score plummet. I will edit the review to make clear.
