Quant review:
TTP is a lengthy course. If you're looking for a shortcut, or have under 6 months to study (and you don't work in finance), this is probably not the course for you. I learned a lot from TTP and it helped me come a long way in my prep. I've struggled with math and timed exams for most of my life, and the improvement I experienced was immense. I climbed from a 21 to a 37, but it took me a year to do it. Although I didn't achieve my goal (I still may retake with extended time) I'm glad I spent the time working toward it with TTP. Jeff was always available to answer my questions throughout the course, and Scott took the time when I completed it to discuss my score. The course is easy to use and it meets you where you are. If you have the time, I definitely recommend using it.

Verbal:
I did not spend the time I needed to on the verbal section, simply because I devoted all of my time to Quant. This is not something you want to do, and if it means pushing your application out a year, consider that ahead of time. The verbal section is just as lengthy, but it definitely helps with the SC section and it has some tough CR questions that will help you truly understand what the exam is testing.

I used Target Test Prep as my primary resource to study for the quantitive section of the GMAT and found it extremely useful.

Prior to TTP I was struggling to structure and pace my GMAT studying. After reading the reviews for TTP I tried it and have no regrets. The course is intuitive and offers a wealth of realistic practice problems to learn and review the concepts from the lessons. Some of the questions can be repetitive (especially in the later, more difficult tests), but they do a good job of reinforcing the concepts that the lessons highlight.

I did not use TTP for verbal so I cannot comment on that portion of the course.

The target test prep has been very useful in my preparation. It was condensed and organized that I could finish each module with relative ease. It was also really deep in terms of depth. Lots of information. One thing I wish the Target Test Prep would have is that it should have a discussion or comments section for each page or each module. Additionally, now that it has a verbal section, this program has been even more useful than before. The verbal questions are not the most ideal. Think it's a bit subjective. However it is still a good resource.

One of the only quant only focused courses it provides a comprehensive resource. However at times feels very repetitive given the same format which is a short content/lesson followed by numerous questions (some may view it as an excessive amount although it drives the topic home through sheer repetition as opposed to guile)

The course is not necessarily the most well advertised but that is partly due to numerous claims about other GMAT courses such as egmat and gmat prep now, the reviews of which in some cases are arguably dubious/spurious

TTP definitely has the best interface out of any prep company as it is clean, modern and what you would expect from being a fee paying user

The content itself is comprehensive in that you don’t need to really learn much more, if any, then what the course teaches you. The same cannot be said about other courses (I have personally utilised Magoosh, GMAT Prep now) which have more gaps in content

Questions are easily answered and responded to directly in chat (no other service offers as quick replies). However interacting with Scott/Jeffery at times I felt was poor and rushed (perhaps given the fact they want to respond so quickly). For example the course is commonly advertised on reddit and numerous posts from Scott are clearly copy and pasted generic responses. I have also personally encountered numerous ‘harsh’/abrupt replies from Jeffery on chat. They also do not like to cover questions outside their content realm which other providers such as GMAT Prep do

It is probably the most comprehensive source for all thing GMAT quant. You do TTP properly, sticking to the accuracy they tell you for each difficulty , you will have GMAT quant underneath your shoe.
Jeff and Scott were always available if i had any issue. I think the push from basics to hard question on every topic make you by default atleast a 47Q scoring machine.

One thing i dont like about TTP is that it is expensive. I mean for one section i am spending 300 bucks for 4 months. It really hurt my pocket as the exchange ratio does not work in my favour at all

After scoring a 42 in quant on my first live GMAT attempt, I decided to take the TTP course with the goal of retaking the exam in about 1 month. There were two methods of taking the course - comprehensive study plan and a flex study plan. I knew I would not have enough time to do the comprehensive plan so I chose to do the flex study plan. TTP recommends certain criteria for those wanting to pursue the flex plan (eg. certain existing quant score already under your belt, etc). I chose to do the flex prep against the recommendation of TTP, as I did not meet their recommended pre req's (but again, I knew there were not enough hours in the day to be able to make it through the comprehensive study plan and I already had the GMAT on the calendar). I felt the course did a particularly good job of sprinkling in intermittent review quizzes to reinforce what you're learning, so that you don't get halfway through the course and forget the materials you looked at weeks before. I did not have enough time to get through the entire flex plan before taking my GMAT exam again. On my retake, my quant score actually stayed the same but I scored higher on Verbal, increasing my overall score by 20 points. This course is not designed to be rushed through - I'm sure if I had more time then I would have been able to better leverage this course than I did with 1 month of prep time in between retakes.

This course is great for anyone who wants to really deep dive into the underlying math concepts tested on the GMAT. I spent about 2 months to complete all of the chapters and approximately 1500 practice problems. I used other test prep as well but nothing came close to really "dumbing" down the math concepts for me as well as Target did. I will say that Target isn't the best for teaching test-taking strategies for the GMAT, but it is a great program to complete before doing other test prep so you have a solid foundation of quant knowledge before learning how to guess and improve timing.

I used TTP program for two months. I think it is one of the most comprehensive courses in Quant. When I took my diagnostic exam and found my weak areas were algebra, geometry and rate problems, I used tried their one week trail for US$1. I was able to improve my score from late 20s, early 30s to 40+. I have to mention though that I used only 5% of their practice sections. These are critical to a great score.

The only downside I see with the amazing, comprehensive course is that it uses only traditional approach. To breeze through quant section you need to know alternate approaches like choosing smart numbers, backsolving, estimation and other ways of solving problems. I found them in @Bunuel's solutions, MGMAT books etc.

I would highly recommend this course in conjunction with GMAT club tests/questions.
