Strengths:

The program is definitely tailored to the material covered on the GMAT. They teach you a lot of methods that work for GMAT questions. I've used other test prep resources like Manhattan Prep, and the lessons in those books felt aimless in comparison.

Would make the product better:

Some of the material and questions can feel grindy. You definitely don't need to complete all of the practice questions to get a great score on GMAT exam. Once you grasp the high level concepts, it's all about executing on test day.

I came into the program with already a solid GMAT score but I was hoping to use the program to get a truly exceptional score. I knew completing the last mile would require a considerable amount of effort since it's a lot easier to go from 600-720 than 720-760. The TTP program reinforced my fundamentals in basic math and grammar, as well as teaching me useful methods to break down more advanced questions. I feel like after going through the program, there's no limit on how high I can score on the GMAT exam. I've gotten perfect scores on each section for my mock exams. It's just about bringing everything together and executing on test day.

Strengths:

Design, question bank, strategies to tackle questions and exam day

Would make the product better:

I would potentially add a mode for online exam takers that would mimic the conditions of having a supervisor that might distract you in the middle of a section

I used TTP for 1.5 months before the exam, and I could not be happier with the platform. First, the design of the website is convenient and full of useful features. Second, the depth of the bank of questions impressed me, with TTP providing wide arrays of problems across difficulty and subjects. Third, I found the lessons across sections very insightful. During my studies, I have significantly shortened the average amount of time per problem. Finally, the exam day strategies have also proved very effective. Specifically, I found time management tips helpful for my preparation

Highly recommended for anyone looking to take GMAT Focus Edition

Phenomenal product for improving quantitative skills in anticipation of the exam. Comprehensive review of grammar and sentence structure to assist with verbal exam.

Would make the product better:

Thanks to TTP, the seemingly impossible became achievable. Their full-service prep platform played a pivotal role in my success, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone embarking on a similar journey. The depth of their resources, coupled with a user-friendly interface, sets them apart. TTP's approach is not just about preparation; it's a transformative experience. The guidance provided is unparalleled, turning challenges into stepping stones. My journey wouldn't have been as smooth without TTP's unwavering support. For those in search of a complete and effective prep solution, TTP is the answer. Grateful for the invaluable assistance on this demanding path.

Strengths:

TTP strengths are a regimented study plan designed for a learner's specific goals, time constraints, and background, a massive test bank with in-depth video and written descriptions, and a learning environment that emulates that of the actual test.

Would make the product better:

TTP is great as is, but an addition that I would have found useful is an integrated TTP-specific forums page where students could interact and learn from each other.

TTP is an amazing program. It provides guidance not only on which subjects to study but also on how to study these subjects. Before using TTP, I was misguided on the level of proficiency I needed to achieve my desired score. I was unsure of my study plan and its effectiveness, and this uncertainty led me to doubt myself even though I was studying diligently. Having a tailored plan from the TTP experts gave me confidence that I was on the path to success.

TTP includes everything from easy-to-follow instruction and question breakdowns to non-content related prep, such as how to address test anxiety and how to think about question timing. I used other prep materials in the past, but TTP by far was the most effective for me.

Strengths:

- Goes into incredible detail on every sub-section of the test
- Good amount of practice questions for each specific topic and at varying difficulties
- Organized so you are easily able to identify where you need to improve

Would make the product better:

Maybe more practice problems - I found that I was doing the custom practice questions but they were repeats from the end of section tests in the study plan. Maybe I was using it incorrectly though - good supplemental material in my experience was the free official GMAT questions that come with the free practice tests #1 and #2. Can also purchase for ~$30 additional practice problems (#1 and #2).

Overall I thought TTP was an awesome resource to help get me over the hump in achieving my target GMAT score. With its immense detail into every topic, I was able to identify WHERE I was lacking in knowledge/skill, and was able to drill these areas until I felt more comfortable.
In my experience, I had to skip around as I only had a few weeks until my test date when I started using TTP, but it still worked for me but I had to put in long hours each day. If you are more patient/take more time (ex: a few months) and go through the study plan in full, you will definitely get even more out of the course and achieve your desired score.

Strengths:

- very responsive community
- extremely detailed program
- easy to follow layout and keeps reader hooked with bite size lessons
- relatively affordable

Would make the product better:

The biggest improvement I would suggest is the ability to further customize tests within the program.

I first took on the approach of only using the OG book to study for the GMAT and scored a 660 after months of studying. So, I decided to start TTP and the way they lay out the lessons finally enabled me to sit down and consume the concepts, which is especially important for people who struggle with a short attention span. After a few months of TTP, my score increased from a 660 to 710 which is right in the middle of the range that I had chose in my TTP study plan. Another major upside of this program is the error log, I constantly went back to this log to master the concepts that I was weak at.

Strengths:

Excellent breadth of content that covers everything you need to know for a successful GMAT

Would make the product better:

It would be nice to see them continue adding videos for solutions to the practice quiz problems.

At first, I was skeptical about going with Target Test Prep since it is a bit more expensive than other highly rated GMAT prep services out there. However, it was 100% worth the price. I could not have risen my score from 570 to 740 without TTP’s prep plan.

The pacing of the lessons is perfect, with sample questions thrown into the lessons to make sure concepts are sticking. The sample questions all have video explanations from Scott, who walks you through the problems slowly and clearly. I never had trouble picking up on more difficult concepts after following Scott’s solution videos.

Another thing I really loved about TTP was the test strategy sections they included. Learning about how to approach the test with proper preparation and strategy was just as important as all of the quant and verbal concepts that TTP taught me.

Strengths:

The level of comprehensiveness for the lessons for both the quant, verbal, and DI sections and the number of available practice questions are just amazing. The lessons are designed that allow maximum flexibility for each candidate and focus on what we need to learn and improve on. The 5000+ question bank provides limitless practice for individuals who are keen to improve their score

I started using TTP after self-studying for 1 month, after only scoring 615 on the first mock exam, I realized that I needed some sort of tutoring/lesson to help me get to my destination. I learned about TTP through a YouTuber who has used it before, and I initially trialed it for 5 days. Since signing up, I could stop myself from staying on the platform all day with the comprehensive lessons and limitless number of practice questions. After 5 weeks of immersing myself in TTP for a total of 175 hours, I received 715 on my first attempt at the GMAT Focus Edition (100% Quant, 79% Verbal, 98% DI). I am truly grateful for this platform and the awesome work done by Scott and his team, and I would recommend TTP to anyone who is looking to take the GMAT exam
