The entire material is very thoughtful designed and the concepts are also taught very well. I mostly used the material to learn Verbal concepts and also for the mock tests. You can very well rely on this material and start your GMAT prep and if you are able to complete all of this, then I think you should be in a good spot. But most importantly, official GMAT material takes precedence over this. This can be used in case if you want to learn or relearn concepts and practice more questions in case you have exhausted all your official GMAT material.
I read a bunch of reviews online before ultimately deciding on TTP to start my GMAT prep journey!
The course was very comprehensive and extremely user-friendly! I've been out of school for a while and really needed to review basic Math fundamentals. Every concept you need to know for the GMAT was explained really well and the tips and tricks that were provided (especially for harder topics such as stats, probability and overlapping sets) were golden! You can never go wrong with the matrix set-up that's taught for handling mixtures and overlapping sets questions.
I whole-heartedly recommend TTP to anyone who is looking for a comprehensive, in-depth course that gives you a great foundation to set you up for success on the GMAT. My Q49 would not have been possible without TTP!
I started my GMAT journey with a group class, a type of "one size fits all" kind of class. 5 weekends later, I realized my money wasn't served well since the whole point of that course was to learn tricks... I took the GMAT twice with the same score, I was only wasting my time.
I learnt about TTP from a coach that highly recommended it, since most of the students he's placed at top 10 MBAs went through TTP for their GMAT journey. I tried the 1 dollar trial, and loved the structure and how easy it was to start studying.
At TTP, you can put your target score, which I specified as a 700-730 range. After 4 months of studying and going through the accelerated plan, I managed to score a 720. I loved how specific the study plan gets for both the quant and verbal sections, which allowed me to really learn the topics and be ready for exam day.
Highly recommended for those who are currently overwhelmed when thinking of how to start to study for the exam. All you need to do is put hours into it.
I started my GMAT journey back in 2019 on my own. With the help of official Guide, GMAT club and Veritas mock test, I was able to score 710 on my first attempt. It gave me the confidence that I could score higher with a little extra effort. But after 2 more attempts in 2020 (720 and 710 again), I found myself unable to break the 720 barrier. My 2 biggest problems were: 1) Lack of speed in verbal 2) Consistency in Quant.That's when I decided I needed professional help and I enrolled with e-gmat. E-gmat monitors their student performances with such depth that within the first few weeks,Payal (Co-founder) reached out to assign a mentor (Rashmi) to me. Even though quant was not my weak area, Rashmi advised me to go over the entire Quant course once. While I had my apprehensions, thankfully I trusted the process. As expected, I consistently started scoring 51/51 in all my subsequent mocks/ practice tests.However, the real game changers for me were the test readiness practice tests and customised practice test. It helped me get over the timing issue in verbal. My verbal score shot up and I was much more confident this time.A comprehensive analysis of every practice test helped me identify and iron out a lot of my weaknesses very easily. With a 730, I only wish I had taken up e-gmat sooner. Would highly recommend.
I started my GMAT journey with Jamboree (2.5 months class program) in early 2020 when I was planning to apply for deferred programs. After the course completion, it provides the students with a post-course study plan which I followed diligently and scheduled my exam in March 2020 considering myself well prepared. However, the study plan, being a static one, did not help me as I could barely identify the topics that I was weak at and had put no special effort into any topic being unaware of my weak areas. As a result, I could not hit my target score of 700+. It was only after reviewing my attempt I realized that the course didn’t help a lot me strategically and I needed a more structured prep along with a study plan that actually adapts to my progress
Deciding to write the GMAT again sometime in 2021 after giving my prep more time, I started exploring some online courses for my retake amidst the pandemic where almost everything turned virtual. Out of all the courses, I shortlisted GMATWhiz as my preferred choice because of various reasons, some of them being:
1. The program is so well designed and organized
2. Customized study plan with weekly tasks
3. Their pedagogy
4. Artificial Intelligence based learning
5. The mentorship support they were offering
I subscribed to their GMAT Prep 6-month online program which consists of both verbal and quant prep. I was assigned a mentor from the initial days. I must say the interface of the platform is intuitive. It is categorically organized and that helps with navigation.
I feel the way the course is designed helps with structurally tackling each segment of the GMAT. From getting the basics of a sentence right to using those in CR and RC, this approach helps with understanding the meaning the author tries to convey in an argument and ace Verbal prep. Even in Quant, the difficulty level increases with each question which helped me pinpoint my weaknesses and work on them.
The best feature I feel the platform has is the analysis offered on the questions tackled. It assisted me in understanding the areas where I lacked and then focusing on the same by solving questions related to those topics. The AI provides you with some concept boosters based on your weak areas and then you have some improvement modules to take care of your weaknesses then and there.
I scheduled some mentorship calls with Zartaj (my mentor) at regular intervals, who monitored my progress, provided some beneficial insights and helped me plan the rest of the preparation. I couldn’t have been luckier because she helped me devise a strategy that reduced yield loss while ensuring that I stayed in touch with the concepts covered earlier in the course. I trusted her, followed the plan she suggested, and this helped me elevate my performance to a great extent. She goes that extra step for her mentees which really makes a difference
The strategies the course offered, the difficulty level of the questions coupled with the unparalleled mentor support helped me ace my prep and get a 730 on the GMAT.
With so many courses in the market, GMATWhiz is a dark horse I feel. The focus is on quality ensuring continued support for the candidates and not stressing too much on marketing (which is the primary activity for many). Having interacted with many people who completed the course, I can vouch for the content in the course and then the added support is just the icing on the cake. Thank you, GMATWhiz for helping me ace my preparation.
I used TTP primarily for quant and saw an improvement from Q44 to Q48 in roughly 3 months of 3-4 hours of practice a week. The concepts were well explained, and if I had put in a bit more effort, I'm certain I would have hit Q50. My weakest area was number properties, and TTP's content in that first module is extensive! I also think the video explanations for each practice question are invaluable, as they showed me how to change my thinking around certain question types. I didn't finish the material, stopped halfway due to work, and decided to just get the GMAT done with, and got a good score so ended my GMAT journey.
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
I started my Gmat journey in August 2021 with a score of 720 (Q50 V38) . Quant was decently strong for me to begin with. However, SC and RC were a real struggle.
Fast forward to June 2022 I enrolled in eGmat course mainly for Verbal. The meaning based approach for SC and the overall modular structure of Verbal was really impressive. Also, the Scholarium dashboard provides deep insights into the areas that can be improved, the "low hanging fruits". Scholarium helped me gauge my weighted accuracy (Easy,Medium,Hard) at 70%. The PreThinking approach in CR was essential to identify patterns and to improve accuracy and ability to solve Hard 700+ level questions.
The SigmaX mocks are very close to official mocks and give a detailed review of sub-sectional performances, including optimal timing indicator. I scored a v39 in first mock and a v43 in the second mock. On my actual test day I scored a v40 , in the range indicated by sigma x mocks.
egmat Verbal is very well balanced for anyone aspiring to crack the Gmat.
I am very happy with my result and I am thankful to e-GMAT for helping me achieve this result without spending too much time.
When I decided to study for GMAT, I considered different options such as self-study using books and GMAT Club resources, taking different online courses and hiring a private tutor (this option was too expensive for me). There was overwhelmingly large quantity of resources available, and I had limited time for the preparation, as I work full-time. I heard about e-GMAT from a friend of my friend and decided to check it out. I used free trial and decided to purchase the course because of two reasons: 1) the course has structure which I knew would save me time by helping me focus on relevant areas and 2) I liked how the concepts were explained for each section and that each concept was followed by tests.
I started studying for GMAT in January 2022 and had to stop after two weeks because I was busy at work. I continued my preparation from May and studied for about 10 – 12 hours a week using e-GMAT for four months. e-GMAT helped me a lot with both quant and verbal.
For quant, I needed to remember math concepts that I learned at school and I needed to learn relevant terminology, as I had studied math in my native language at school. Watching e-GMAT’s concept videos was very helpful for me to refresh my knowledge and learn some techniques that school has failed to teach me. After concept videos, e-GMAT offers questions to solve, starting with easy and going to very hard. Video or written solutions are offered for each question. This structure helped me master the skills to solve complicated GMAT questions in time. One of the best skills I developed was solving data sufficiency questions without doing full calculations. e-GMAT also offers cementing process, which is very important for developing confidence in one’s abilities and cementing the skills.
As for verbal, I was good at reading comprehension from the start (I read non-fiction literature in English), however I struggled with critical reasoning and sentence correction initially (I got v31 on GMAT Club’s verbal mock before doing e-GMAT’s sentence correction module). I did those sections on e-GMAT and got v45 on exam as a result (I would have gotten higher mark if I had managed time better). e-GMAT teaches both concepts and the process to apply knowledge in such manner that after I completed the course I was able to easily solve most difficult questions.
I highly recommend e-GMAT course, it is very helpful even if you are starting GMAT preparation from scratch and it is quite inexpensive. I recommend that if you take the course, you follow their instructions and not skip concept videos or cementing part.
p.s. I have not indicated score improvement, as I had not taken mock exam before I began studying on e-GMAT
I started with my GMAT Journey in May of 2022. I started my preparation by purchasing the eGMAT subscription and for my entire prep I had only and only one source: eGMAT. I completed my GMAT journey in August and few data points of my GMAT prep journey are as follows:
1. Score Improvement
(a) First mock (590) used to create PSP to 700 (Q49, V36)
2. Verbal Prep
a) Completed MC, SC, CR, and RC to bridge certain gaps.( SC summarised notes prepared)
b). Solved 852 verbal questions during cementing and test readiness phases
c) Followed the cementing process and only moved to the next stage on meeting the requisite threshold (Medium level questions- 70% and Hard level questions- 55%)
3. Quant Prep
a) Utilized PACE engine to make Quant preparation efficient, learning only what I was required to learn.( Module wise summarised notes prepared)
b). Solved 900 questions in Quant in Cementing and Test Readiness phases
I started off my verbal prep with Sentence Correction and was not able to meet the threshold level in the cementing quizzes and therefore had to do the entire SC module again. After SC, I completed the CR and RC module and was able to complete the cementing stage with requisite thresholds. Finally I went on to Quant and in the eGMAT Quant every sub topic has a diagnostic test at the very beginning to guide students with different level of abilities- if I was strong in Geometry, the AI driven software would guide me in a way that I only had to study limited content. This helped me save time in my preparation and focus only on my weak areas and keep working towards improvement. After completing every QUANT sub module, I would undergo the process of cementing to ensure that I hit my target abilities in each subsection. Taking these quizzes would enable me to deal with GMAT like questions and strengthen my process abilities. Every eGMAT question provides the students with forum posts related to the doubts and issues faced by the other students. This would allow me to resolve my doubts and also strengthen my conceptual understanding. I could also post fresh doubts that would get resolved within 24 hours by the egmat team. The mentors for Verbal- including Harsha, Kanupriya, Stacey and Shraddha would provide excellent support on the forum. On the quant side also we had Bikramjit, Aditi and Shweta who would provide detailed solutions to each problem. These interactions with the subject matter experts were very helpful for me to increase my understanding of dynamics of GMAT test like problems.
Coming to the test readiness stage- I was assigned a mentor to guide me through my preparation – Abha Mohan The test readiness phase is one of the most important stages of preparation and having Abha’s guidance at every step of the way helped me structure my improvement plan and work on my weak areas after doing a detailed analysis of my Scholaranium account my mentor told me to revisit few modules in SC and Number properties and Word problems. Post my test readiness quizzes I was told to take mocks with a gap of 3 to 4 days between two successive mocks and Abha would help me put together an improvement plan after every mock so that I could work before my next mock. I scored a 660 on my first mock and was completely unhappy with my performance but Abha guided me and helped me with a improvement plan and also did a thorough video analysis of my mock. I scored a 700 and 710 in my next two mocks. However, I scored a 670 on my first official test. I became extremely sad because of the drop in my score but Abha guided me and helped me work on a small improvement plan and in the last 2 days of my preparation guided me with the final day test plan. Her support really helped me regain my confidence and I was able to ensure that I remain calm enough to make it to the exam day. To regain my confidence, Abha suggested that I take a few custom quizzes and I was able to regain some level of calm and composure upon seeing my scores in these custom quizzes. Finally, I scored a 700 in my second attempt with a Q49 and V36 split. I would highly recommend the e GMAT subscription to all those who are looking for a structured approach for their GMAT preparation
Hi raina02299,
Abha from e-GMAT this side.
Congratulations on your 700 and thank you for taking out the time and sharing your thoughts.
Getting a 700 is no mean feat, it requires diligence, resilience, and determination.
We had a great journey together! When I looked at your account, I concluded that yours is one of the most diligent journeys I have witnessed. Here is why:
You completed the course in the right way, did stage 1 for all sub-sections:
https://success.e-gmat.com/ThePower-of-Diligence
You took the feedback seriously (revisited the appropriate files and replayed the quizzes) and immersed yourself in the process.
https://success.e-gmat.com/Resilience-key-to-success
Followed the Cementing Process and met the threshold.
Belief in yourself and the course – Even when your mock score took a hit, you continued to believe that you could make it into the 700 Club and you were ready to work on the improvement plan with the right spirit.
The Result ? YOU SCORED 700 and 710 in TWO consecutive Sigma-X Mocks.

I remember the mail you sent to me after you scored 670 on your 1st attempt. I remember telling you to have heart, that I believed you had the ability to get to 700. All we needed was a little bit more of hard work and you were more than willing to give it your all.
We at e-GMAT truly believe that our student’s success is our success and your e-mail to us after your next attempt truly validated it.

I wish you all the best in your applications and future endeavors.
All the best!

Abha Mohan
Personally, I like managing my own schedule so a private tutor was not an option for me so I was looking for one of the many online course available. I decided to start my GMAT journey with the 6 months plan on TTP after reading many positive reviews here and in other websites.
The TTP course was beyond my expectations in terms of quality and I'm glad I decided to subscribe to it. The course is really comprehensive and has a clear study plan. They somehow managed to explain every topic in an easy and understandable way. I felt pretty confident after finishing the lessons and quiz simulations and managed to land my goal score on my first try at the official so I'm pretty happy and definitely recommend using TTP
Dear Mchik,
Congratulations on a great score and thank you for your kind words. A 14-point improvement in verbal and a 760 in the first attempt is no mean feat! In fact, very few people improve their GMAT score by 170-points, and fewer still score a 760. I commend you on your diligence and dedication.
You set out the right way by planning for your GMAT preparation journey by creating your Personalised Study Plan which showed that you would need around 3 months to reach your target score and you were able to do that in the planned 4 months.
Here is the screenshot of your Personalised Study Plan (PSP):
https://success.e-gmat.com/590-to-760-study-plan
“GMAT Quant”
Your diligence is clearly visible in GMAT Quant where you excelled in all GMAT Skill Practice files. The screenshot of the Primes Module and your scores in 3.11 GMAT Skills practice files indicate the same.
Refer to the screenshot here:
https://success.e-gmat.com/great-first-time-GMAT-skill-file-scores
In fact, because you did so well on the course, you excelled in Scholaranium right away. You had to solve fewer than 100 questions in each subsection.
Refer to this image to see how Scholaranium predicted your quant score:
https://success.e-gmat.com/85percentile-in-quant-predicted-by-scholaranium
The same diligence you showed in verbal too where in you had great first-time practice quiz scores in SC and CR that helped you build great ability – your Scholaranium stats predicted that that you were at a 90%ile + ability in SC.
And to have achieved all this, working full – time in the first attempt itself goes to prove that when one sets out to achieve something wholeheartedly, nothing is impossible!
Mariam, on the behalf of the entire e-GMAT family I wish you all the very best for your applications and your future endeavours.
Regards,
Rashmi Vaidya
