700 Q50 V33 (Online)
Pros - Scholaranium to practice questions
Cons - Students may probably sleep listening to their videos for Verbal. No feature of listening to videos at 1.5x/2x plus lack of mentorship from the company. The experience was more of singing up for some AI based service.
SC may be a little average but a big big no for CR and RC.
Ideally such a well known company should have gone an extra mile to help students.
EGMAT team is quite unwilling to accept that their course was sub standard. I was wondering how a 4.9 review company can produce such a horrible course. Signing up with EGMAT is waste of both time and money.
I am a non-native speaker and gave my GMAT about a year ago. I scored a disappointing 590 Q45 V28 on the test. It was the test day anxiety that really got to me and I failed to solve the problems that I could've gotten right. I emailed Scott and Jeff about the situation. I performed a memory wipe against everything I knew for the GMAT and started fresh with each fundamental concept and practiced accordingly. I was recommended to take a practice test each week but I was still lacking the conceptual clarity.
TTP is made for clearing your conceptual gaps. I don't think I even needed to look at any other question banks except TTP questions and OG practice questions. Once you start hitting more than 80% accuracy in TTP practice quizzes, solving an OG question will be a relaxing experience. The similarity of questions in TTP Quant to the OG questions is remarkable, not that they are copied exactly as it is but that they are quite different and have some kind of different gravity to them in that if you solve a TTP question and later you were given an OG question of the same type, I guarantee you can solve it.
Another thing was the timing in solving a question, something in which I was really bad. You can checkout an article about this on TTPs website, the first recommendation is to SLOW DOWN while solving, something which I directly started to practice. In my second attempt, I didn't care about timing while solving a QUANT question. What I needed to know was
1. Do I know the concept behind it ?
2. Have I solved a problem like this before ?(which you might have if you've used TTP)
3. Is this my weak area? or Do things in these type of questions go wrong for you?
If I had answers to all three of them, which I guess you will have if you've practiced and reviewed enough, I would just go ahead and start solving it. Once I reach an answer/conclusion on DS question, I used to look back once and submit.
Jeff has been a great mentor, he gave me a detailed plan on how to go about preparing for your test. Marty is also a great guy, his recommendations for RC and CR have helped me a lot and I cannot thank them enough. Essentially TTP is a great course and you should definitely add it into your GMAT Prep if you want to crack that 700 mark!!
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
TTP has created an excellent course that covers the ins and outs of both Quant and Verbal, providing users with the necessary tools to ace the GMAT. I started at 570 as a baseline after going thru another prep company's materials.
I was introduced to the course over at r/GMAT on reddit, and I was initially suspicious of the many glowing reviews given by users there. After using the course for myself, I have found it to be not the case and that it really prepares you well for the GMAT.
For the Quant section, the materials are substantial and go in-depth, allowing anyone (even those with years out of school or not having a quant background) to be able to grasp all things GMAT Quant. This "one-stop shop" method is truly convenient, especially when one is juggling work and studies at the same time.
For the Verbal section, the SC and CR are very well developed, going deep into the material and giving users good insights into how the GMAT tests on Verbal. Basics are drilled deep into one's learning plan, as frequent quizzes are interspersed throughout. I would say the RC is new, and I haven't really used the material, but give the excellent team sometime, and I am sure the RC would be on par with the rest of the sections, if not better.
All in all, I would say I had a good experience with TTP's course. The only caveat I would add is that the course is long, so please be prepared to allocate sufficient time for you to prep if you're aiming for a good score (700+) or is coming from a slightly weaker background.
Totally agreed, definitely one of the best options to consider if you're aiming to excel your GMAT. Highly recommended.
Absolutely fantastic course of TTP amalgamated with the basic and advanced levels of PREP mode. Selecting a proper GMAT prep company is V.V. important. I must recommend Target Test Prep, strongly.
There are many pros while selecting this TTP, overruling other ONLINE/OFFLINE prep companies.
TTP course is designed in a perfect methodical way... from beginner to Expert level concept and application effectively. No matter whether you are at present in QA or VA, you can reach your target if you follow exactly the recommendation, which is fully customized to our unique situation.
Besides, many unique USPs for TTP is there such as calendar-based daily targets, customized micro- quiz, regular motivational videos, etc.
From TTP, I came to realize that morning study for around 2 hrs. before leaving to work would give a perfect kick-start for your day.
Recently TTP has started private tutoring, also. One may go for it according to his budget also. In case of any quarries, just ping me. I have experienced this while studying through many online/ Offline modes including e-GMAT etc... Go for TTP to grab your dreams.
My journey started from a score of 600 (Q48, V25). I was consistently getting 680 to 700 in my Gmat Official Mock and I was shocked when I saw a score V25 in my 1st Gmat test. Feeling disheartened, a friend of mine recommended me to join E-GMAT full online course.
Skeptical at first, I decided to enroll for E-GMAT course. It was the best decision that I had taken in my journey of GMAT. I was amazed by their videos. Even the smallest of thing(especially in the verbal section) is very well explained. In no time, I was able to figure out my flaws and able to correct them.
The pre-thinking approach taught in CR is section is undoubtedly the best and most sought after approach in answering the CR questions. I was able to answer around 80% of the CR questions correctly in each and every mock using their Pre-Thinking methodology.
FInally the Scholaranium, set of thousand of good quality GMAT questions. In my final days of preparation, All i did was solve questions from the Scholaranium. The quality of questions on the Scholaranium is by far the best that i have seen amongst all the other platforms. Each question has a well detailed explanation at the end, helping me to identify even the smallest of things that I might have otherwise looked.
Scoring 710 would not be possible without the support of E-GMAT mentors and their material. I would highly recommend anyone preparing for GMAT to enroll for E-GMAT course.
Dear hsoni66,
Congratulations on scoring a 710 on the GMAT! A 110-point improvement is just A.M.A.Z.I.N.G 😊
I am glad we could change a student with a skeptical mind into a true believer. What you said really means a lot to me and the entire team. These are the words we work for.
I want to pick one thing out of your review – the quality of questions. Usually, most students love the number of questions, the explanations, or the data for these questions but let me tell you this, we go through 5-6 intensive rounds before even a single question goes live on Scholaranium. I am glad you noticed the value of this.

I have been associated with GMATWhiz for almost 6 months now and the experience has been amazing. The course is very well structured and the score predictor based on the performance in the quizzes and mocks is very close to the real score.
Apart from the course and it's structure, I have also greatly benefited from the timely guidance by Saquib Sir, Shreyyash, Zartaj, and Piyush. They have extended their whole hearted support throughout. I was facing challenge with the verbal section and Shreyyash helped me pinpoint my weak areas and helped me strategize my preparation to work on those areas.
Overall, my experience has been nothing short of amazing and I would highly recommend GMAT Whiz to everyone who has been struggling with their preparation.

Hands down, TTP is the most useful prep tool for GMAT I’ve ever used. The most important thing is that the practice questions can properly train your way of thinking, and mold it in the same way that GMAT uses to test the students. When I did GMAT the last time, I actually kept a good pace cause I needed not to overthink what the question was asking - I just instantly knew which option would make the most logical sense. I wish I had known about TTP earlier - I might have gotten a good score way sooner!
My journey with GMAT started about an year back. At that time, I relied primarily on the official guide and self-study. As I familiarized myself with the basics, I took a couple of gmat prep mocks and scored a 690 and 720. With a 700 plus mock result I felt confident to take the actual test and booked GMAT online exam. However, my actual result were in stark contrast to my mocks. I scored a 650!
Given the stark variance in my target and actual score it was clear to me that I needed professional help and that’s when I reached out to Piyush from GMATWhiz. Through Piyush I got introduced to Sunita ma’am and we started working together to build my verbal skills.
From day 1 itself, I was pleasantly surprised with how structured the GMATWhiz approach was. The whole structured aspect of approaching questions helped improve my accuracy in verbal pretty quickly. However, I continued to struggle with solving questions under two minutes (especially for CR). That’s where Sunita ma’am really helped me identify and iron out areas taking more time than usual to solve. Post preparing with GMATWhiz, In my second attempt I scored 730.
The GMATWhiz module is quite comprehensive with detailed solutions that cover various concepts in-depth. I really relied upon the whiz question bank to practice on harder questions. Also, on the platform I could keep track of my weak areas continuously, helping me iteratively improve on those areas.
Overall, the GMATWhiz verbal private tutoring helped me in improving my score from V29 to V41. I must callout Sunita ma’am role in making this happen. I would highly recommend this course. Best of luck to the team at GMATWhiz.
Highly recommended course|Smartly built| Best of the Best
For, Non-native speakers who want to improve their verbal scores, it is the best online course available.
My GMAT journey would have been very short if I had found TTP earlier. From relentlessly solving OG and other questions banks to giving multiple mocks I got to 710 on MBA.com mock, for most of us this score is enough to end their GMAT journey. But I was looking to score more than 710. Confused about how to improve my score above 710, I joined an online course that is very famous in India and on the GMAT club, but to my disappointment, the course was not good, and I wasted two months. Also, my score in verbal dropped by some point on MBA.com mocks. Then on one day, I finally searched GMAT 800 scorer on youtube. I found Marty and TTP. From day 1, I fell in love with TTP. The course is very smartly built. It is based on concepts that GMAT actually test. If you give your 100 percent to TTP and have little luck on test day I am sure you can score 780+ on GMAT. I fell short on test day scored 750. But TTP helped me to reach 770 on MBA.com mock. Trust me on this, improving your score after 700 is a real task. If you want to save time and money, join TTP and achieve your dream score. The TTP is the best course I found. It is a real gem.
I'd like to express my gratitude to Experts' Global for their comprehensive program, which is housed on a fantastic software platform with a wealth of smart and useful tools and features. Through this course, I was able to arrange my whole preparation, and I no longer had to worry about locating content, practicing problems, or mocks from various sources. It was sufficient to rely just on Experts' Global's program and official materials.
About the online course, one of the best features is that the system pinpoints your weakest areas in both quantitative and verbal reasoning; this motivated me to watch the relevant videos again and fill in the gaps in my knowledge. Various small features such as the ability to flag specific questions, post notes on the system's wall, a timer that alerts you when you take too long on a question, some very detailed time management insight, a set of study plans to choose from based on your needs, and so on are all extremely useful, well-thought-out tools that aided my preparation and made it more engaging and interesting.
Experts' Global comes highly recommended. However, I strongly advise you to start with the free trial and see whether the course is a good fit for you.

Hi Everyone,
I started my journey with TTP in June 2021. I studied both Quant and Verbal with TTP.
Quant:
-I did not use any other resource but TTP. The course is extremely exhaustive and helps you understand the foundation of every single operation you make in the GMAT, and it also helps you identify shortcuts and avoid long operations.
-The chapter tests are extremely helpful and you can always go back to review the hard questions, which are key.
-One thing that I did was create a custom test with all of my wrong hard questions, and doing this really helped me nail the hard problems in the test.
-As I finished the course I felt so confident in my quant skills that I did not even open any other resource.
Verbal:
-TTP was extremely helpful for me to understand the foundations of verbal. As a non-native speaker, I learned English at school but missed many of the rules that the GMAT tests. After using TTP I also used the OG to get more practice on verbal questions.
On top of all the great material that TTP has, the platform is really friendly and the methodology that they use is great.
Good luck everyone
Dear AnubhavC97,
Thank you for posting your review and scoring a 700! It’s a commendable feat and you join a long list of our students to have achieved this. (With or without our help)
I am confounded by what you have stated in your review. While you seem like a diligent student who has put in the work to score a 700, your review does not speak volumes to that character.
For example, would a diligent sleep while watching videos that have helped thousands of students score 90th percentile for SC, CR & RC? Yes, it would surely be a waste of your preparation if you did sleep through the videos. Also, these videos are not meant to be played at that pace since the rate at which you should absorb is not 1.5x or 2x. There is intent behind it.
Another example of this, if your experience was just more of an “AI-based experience” – why would you feel that Scholaranium is amazing as a platform to practice.
I would like to correct a few things you have stated in your review too -
1) We are not rated 4.9, we are rated 4.7 😊
2) We did go the extra mile to help you – we had 2 experts go on a call with you to help you out, let alone the exchange of over 100 emails.
I will leave you with this thought, you stated the course was sub-standard, especially for CR, RC – then why would you –
1) Complete the entire CR course
2) Comment on the RC Course when you have not even completed it?
Your Course Usage - https://success.e-gmat.com/Your-Course-Usage
I will leave you with this thought, while the course is not for everyone – you used it, you were supported for it in every way possible, but we ACCEPT that the course is for diligent students, not everyone.
We wish you the best!
Regards,
e-GMAT
