YOU WILL NOT REGRET TTP FOR GMAT QUANT! GET IT NOW IF YOU’RE SERIOUS ABOUT SCORING 700+

Before I started using TTP, my GMAT prep and practice test scores were inconsistent. Based on online reviews of the “best” materials available, I began studying for the GMAT with Manhattan Strategy Guides, Official Guide Questions, and the Free Official Practice Exams. While the Official GMAT Material is gold, don’t bother wasting your time with Manhattan’s Strategy Guides – there were not enough practice problems and I did way too much passive learning which lulled me into a false sense of security about how much I knew. On my first Official GMAT test, I scored a 670, falling 40 points below my practice test scores and 60 points below the 730 that I desperately wanted before applying to T10 business schools. A close friend of mine who had achieved a 760 with TTP recommended that I stop everything else and focus on TTP to achieve more consistency in my scores.

As a former engineering major, I had good math intuition, but still had a lot of gaps in knowledge from moving around a lot in middle school and high school. To achieve 49+ on Quant, I really needed a program that solidified my knowledge base through an engaging development of theoretical knowledge and practical application of concepts through MANY DRILLS. My goal for GMAT math was to develop muscle memory so that solving math problems would feel just like riding a bicycle. I felt as though that level of comfort and consistency in solving problems would help reduce any anxiety I felt on test day. TTP provided that and so much more!

COMPLETING TTP REQUIRED TIME AND DEDICATION, BUT IT WAS WORTH IT IN THE END!!!!!

My only regret is that I didn’t start TTP sooner. It is very comprehensive and available at such a reasonable price. Give yourself ~2-3 months to diligently go through all the modules. TTP is not something that you should attempt to fully complete in a month. That being said, there is a short study plan you can follow if you are on a time crunch.

Immediately after signing up for TTP, Scott offered to do a call with me, where we identified my concern areas (work /rate, combinatorics/ probability, and advanced geometry) and mapped out a plan of action. I’m bad at following plans so, initially, I skipped around between the different modules and focused on the hard problems, which quickly proved to be a big mistake. The modules really do build on each other and I needed to work through the easy and medium problems first to identify my knowledge gaps and building a strong foundation. Working from the ground up takes awhile, but it really is the best approach. I complemented TTP with the two additional Official GMAT Exam Packs offered by GMAC.

My favorite parts of the TTP platform:
1. ANALYTICS: Not only does TTP provide a dashboard that displays your accuracy and predicted score range, it also allows you to DRILL into the topic and subtopic areas that you are weak on and directs you to the chapters where you can review the relevant material. This level of detailed analysis was so incredibly helpful in establishing a strong foundation. I would spend a lot of time reviewing the topics that I had below 50% accuracy on and paid attention to these topics when doing OG questions and practice tests. The analytics section is also useful because if you have data-driven insights on what your strong and weak sections are, you KNOW which sections to focus on versus skip over on the actual test. Previously, I was relying on my gut to gauge which questions were difficult or would take me a long time to complete, an approach that was not always accurate.
2. TARGET TEST PREP FORMULA SHEET: Target Test Prep provides a helpful cheat sheet of formulas. I printed out this sheet and as I went through the TTP course and Official Problems, I would jot down additional formulas and tricks that I thought were important, but that I would most likely forget a few days later. I looked over my “customized” TTP cheat sheet in the days leading up to my exam.
3. ACTIVE REVIEW SHEETS: TTP Provides Active Review Sheets that you can print out and take notes on as you go through the different chapters. I found it extremely helpful to note the different permutations of a specific problem type on these sheets, especially if it was on a topic that was one of my weakness areas e.g., work/rate problems. People emphasize error logs a lot, but I think having clear, brief notes on the different problems you might encounter on test day is also helpful to review in the weeks leading up to the exam. As I reviewed my notes, which also served as a kind of checklist, I was able to reassure myself that I knew enough, had covered all of my gaps, and was ready to take this test!
4. VIDEO LESSONS: Each chapter has video lessons. I would often review videos on my morning commute or when I had down time. Active learning is best, but sometimes it was nice to just watch videos passively to refresh my memory on a particular topic.
5. FLEXIBLE: Because I am a self-directed learner, I found the well-designed platform offered the flexibility I needed to focus on my personalized needs at times that were most convenient to me.

THE BIGGEST BENEFIT TTP PROVIDED WAS CONSISTENCY IN MY QUANT SCORES.
Post TTP, I only scored 49+ on the Quant section of my practice exams and official exam. Before I took my official test, I signed up for Kaplan’s Official Test Day Experience, to get a feel for what it’s like to take a GMAT practice test at the same test center as my actual GMAT. Although I had to use a Kaplan Practice Test rather than an Official Practice Test during this experience, I found it SO HELPFUL to go through the motions of test day a few weeks before the real thing.
On test day, I found myself extremely comfortable with most of the easy and medium questions. There were still some hard quant curveballs that got me towards the end of the test, but overall it went really smoothly, and I was ecstatic when I saw that 770 at the end of the exam! I hope this helps, and remember that persistence and active practice is key on your GMAT journey!

For a reasonable price, TTP offers TONS of material. It's a highly structured and organized program that really helps to refine your quant skills. Whether you're a naturally high scorer or someone with a lot of room to improve, Target Test Prep offers a strong system to help boost your score.

Personally, I used TTP for one month (a bit rushed - to really take advantage of resource, I'd recommend at least 2 months), and saw a pretty decent improvement. I scored a 45Q on my first test and managed to bump it up to a 47Q through TTP. Though, I think I under performed on test day, as I was getting 49Q on practice tests.

Through thousands of practice problems and thorough explanations of all the concepts you'll see on the GMAT, Target Test Prep is a great resource to hone your skills.

I thought I was good in both Verbal and Quant but GMAT proved me wrong. Was thinking about taking the GMAT since August September and bought official guides and the complete GMAT strategy guide of Manhhatan. Studied for two months on and off and my score hovered around 650. Went through a lot of material but could not improve. After reading reviews, decided to give EGMAT a try. It was worth it! Both the quant and verbal sections are beautifully laid out and builds on a strong foundation. I really liked the verbal section as it taught me an approach for tackling SC which was my weakest link. The quant section strengthened the foundation which is essential. After three months of studying, did a official test and my score was 700. But some personal things came up and could not study for two weeks and gave my GMAT after completing a 6 day official trip and totally bunked the exam. My score was 590 and it taught me that constant practice is key and having a calm mind is essential. My next GMAT date is on the 25th and will review in detail about the study plan etc if I get a good score.

I was on my gmat journey for about a year starting October 2017 and was finally done in October 2018. When I took my first practice test cold I scored 550 (GMAT prep 1). I briefly studied as I had to take another test by January and I scored 590 on my first official test. Both instances I had 36Q score. I did my research and had heard great things about target test prep. I started target test prep in February of 2018. The online only program has a pre-set study plan depending on your target score. The platform was perfect because I didn't have to worry about where to start since that in itself was overwhelming to me. The other great thing is that it tracks how much of the content i had covered and how much I had to go and has quizzes divided by difficulty. I am a visual learner and this was very helpful. Along with self guided study the material consists of video explanations to questions which was very helpful. I will not lie and say it was easy - the content itself was A LOT! At times I was discouraged and didn't think I would get through the content. By May and almost halfway through I scored 47 in an official practice test and I knew to trust the process. In my final GMAT official attempt in October I achieved 46Q which was a little below my target by 10 points here from my starting point. If I was more diligent and worked religiously to finish the content I have no doubt i would have achieved 48Q. The time investment is worth it. For the price there is no better quant prep guides out there

It's been a decade since I've been in school, so to say that I was unfamiliar with the concepts tested on the quant section is an understatement. TTP helped me to get back to the basics and build my quant skills from basically non-existent to a solid understanding. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to improve their quant score. The creator of TTP, Scott, was also incredibly helpful and supportive throughout the process. It's apparent that he cares about each of his students and he took his time to explain to me the importance of taking a strategic approach with studying for the GMAT, and of course exactly what that strategy is. He also offers one-on-one tutoring for those who are looking for more hands on support.

I started my GMAT Prep with Magoosh Premium Course. I was surprised by the clarity of concepts presented in the video's. I used Magoosh for both Quants and Verbal. I would say Magoosh's Quants videos can be considered among one of the best in the market, but verbal needs some work. One of the best advantage is the number of questions and the detailed video explanations for the questions. They have around 500 Questions in their database and they are really good.

The advantages i found with Magoosh are listed below:
Very good Quant
Excellent Questions
Customizable Study Plans
Amazing Customer Support [One of the best i have seen in market]
Reasonable Pricing

Overall i would recommend Magoosh to any one who are at the start of their preparation.

So , I took this course somewhere in January 2018 after getting strong recommendation from fellow gmat club members and enrolled GMAT students.

For indian students, Definitely egmat course is bit easy to understand and comprehend as compared to other courses. The material is well devised along with improved UI for scholnarium and blitzkreig. Over the time they evolved well with improved support from their team on query resolution. Stats are good and question bank is of good quality
Now downside to this is that compared to others , egmat is a bit overpriced ,considering that it is valid for a period of only 6 months. So only and only if you have taken ur gmat date in advance, it makes sense to enroll here . However they do extend for a month for no charge at all if you have official mail of your gmat scheduled date.

It is a good course but again ,enroll if 6 months mean that you will be completing investing in this as every month counts.

I was looking out for help for Gmat verbal just a month before the Gmat exam as after giving some mock tests I got to know that I am not scoring good in Gmat mock tests because of low verbal score. I attended 1 seminar of e-gmat for verbal and thereafter subscribed for verbal online course. I completed the course in 3 weeks and scored a 80% in verbal in my final Gmat exam. Earlier my verbal score was around V25 and it jumped to V36 in just a month's time. I would like to thank e-gmat for the much needed last moment help. The Verbal Online course is structured beautifully and caters exactly to what is asked in Gmat exam. I didn't get much time for revision or completing verbal scholaranium but I am happy that I made the most of it in the given short span of 1 month. Thanks a ton e-gmat!!

I come from a non-quant background and struggled on my first GMAT. I came out of that test with a measly 39 on my quant section for a total score of 680. The next time around I decided to focus all of my study on the quant section, so I found the best quant course - Target Test Prep. I had forgotten many of the basics since being out of school, but this course does an amazing job of teaching and testing the fundamentals. After working through the whole course I was able to raise my quant score to a 47 and my overall score to a 730. Thank you Target Test Prep!

I was skeptical about Egmat initially Being a non native verbal had been my biggest issue since the day I started preparing for the GMAT. I started my prep for GMAT in 2015 and since then have given the twice and scored 520 and 500 respectively. After the last exam I was exhausted and frustrated wondering what should I do now when all the material OG2017,Aristotle and Manhattan guides have not been enough.
I came across the Egmat reviews and took a final chance investing time and money to buy the Egmat Verbal online course. It was the best decision I took.
My concepts are much more clear and my scores have improved drastically.My entire approach for a SC or RC or CR question has changed phenomenally.
I would recommend this course to all students who are currently struggling with the Verbal Section in the GMAT.

Trust me the Egmat course works wonders with your Verbal Score.
