I first took the GMAT in February 2020 (right before COVID) after studying for approx. 3 months using traditional prep materials. I scored a 630. Total devastated I started looking for other study programs and that's when a friend recommended TTP. The quant was particularly helpful. I had been struggling with it, but the program lays out exactly what you need and structures the curriculum in a sequential manner that is intuitive and builds on itself. Practically no previous experience needed. The verbal study sections and practice problems helped me identify common trap answers and think about how I was reading on a much deeper level. TTP was instrumental in me hitting 760.

I took an initial official GMAT exam to gauge where I stood and scored a meager 560, with particular difficulty in the quant section of the exam. After doing some research online about quant-focused GMAT prep courses, I found Target Test Prep and decided to give it a try. I opted for the Flexible Prep plan, not knowing how much time I would need to complete the course and associated practice problems. I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with Target Test Prep. The material is delivered in a format that is regimented and easily digestible. Additionally, the extensive practice problems closely mirror problems you will encounter on the actual exam and allow for reinforcement and mastery of all concepts. If you are looking for a GMAT prep course to take your score to another level, look no further than Target Test Prep.

The pacing, organization, and detail in TTP's program were perfect. TTP was exactly what I needed. Not knowing where to start with my own prep, I sought out the most effective program I could find, and luckily, I found it. Using Scott & the team's courses on verbal, quant, and even strategy, were immensely valuable. TTP had plenty of practice questions, of each difficulty level, answers and explanations that made sense, and recommendations that I found intuitive. I even found the strategy section of the course particularly valuable because it helped preempt the nerves and distractions that I would have to deal with on test day. Working with limited time, and no official practice test, I knew that I would have to organize my time as effectively as possible. TTP already had that covered. I highly recommend TTP to anyone at any stage in their MBA search.

TTP is a budget friendly option optimal for go getters. While it takes somebody with enough discipline to work their way through the entire course, TTP is a fairly comprehensive option when combined with the free problems available online, especially on GMATClub.

Frankly, I didn't have the discipline or the time to work through everything before I took the exam, but I found the piecemeal portions I went through quite helpful nonetheless. I certainly used many of the strategies TTP taught on the actual GMAT exam.

Far more effective for quant than verbal, as the verbal still has kinks to work out, but the quant alone is likely worth your money. I would recommend TTP to those looking for something cheaper than a class, but more thorough than a book.

At the beginning of my prep, I started with another company's course at the recommendation of a friend but did not find it to be helpful at all. The course had a good amount of practice questions but did not help with learning the theory behind the math (which is very important to do at the beginning of quant prep). Although I did not know anyone who had used TTP before, I took a chance and signed up for the 5-day trial for $1 to test it out. I was very happy with the format and quality of the course. The explanations were easy and TTP provides a wide variety of problems with easy to follow solutions ranging from Easy-Med-Hard. I was interested and motivated throughout and never did I find the course boring in any way. I would definitely recommend starting with the 5-day course to see how you feel and then if you like the structure of the program I'd say go for it! The Hard questions were immensely helpful in my preparation and gave me the confidence to tackle all levels of problems. If you are planning to give the exam in 3-4 months this is a great course for the value compared to others.

I finished my first GMAC practice test with a score of 680, and after 3 months of studying with TTP, improved to a 760. Their approach to the quant section is very comprehensive and it gives you the tools and confidence you need to do very well. I'm definitely stronger on verbal than I am on quant, and TTP helped make up that difference for me.

Sections are very specific and comprehensive. Everything on the actual test I encountered on during the test prep. Each chapter has a good breakdown of different types, and you can focus your practice on weaker sections.

They're just beginning to launch verbal, but I was able to benefit from that as well - the questions are generally harder than the ones on the GMAT so they're good prep.

I signed up for TTP after reading the amazing reviews of its offerings on both GMAT Club and Reddit. This product did not disappoint at all.

I was looking to improve my GMAT quant score and reach the Q50/51 range (I work in a non-quantitative field so this was particularly important for me to achieve). Having already studied the OG books and the Manhattan Quant book, I was confident in my understanding of the Quant theories being tested in the GMAT. I soon realised however that I needed to truly drill in these concepts and practice a ton of questions - this is where TTP truly excelled.

TTP's question bank is extensive and as close as I could find to real GMAT questions. The answers provided (including the step by step method to get the answers) were clear and helped improve my understanding of the concepts being tested and how to apply such concepts to complicated scenarios.

Going into the test, I felt confident that even when faced with tough questions, I had the necessary skills to break such questions down into first principles and apply what TTP had taught me to answer the question at hand.

Thanks TTP for helping me achieve my Q50 goal - truly a resource worth paying for.

I first took the GMAT in November 2020 and scored 640, with a quantitative score of 44. I was not satisfied with this score and wanted to improve my quantitative score in priority because this was key for my university applications.
I subscribed to Target prep in January, the quantitative course section was extremely helpful to improve my quantitative score in only 1 month from Q44 to Q49.
The lectures are great, very well structured, they cover all topics in details and enabled me to be very well prepared for the exam. Moreover, the platform offers a lot of exercises, which are very similar to the ones on the GMAT, which is crucial.
I strongly recommend it is worth the investment!

I finally broke 700 and it was all because of TTP.

I started this messed up journey in 2018 when I thought I'd attend my unranked state school's MBA program. I studied for a month or so then sat for the exam. ... 480. I couldn't even be taken seriously by my state school's standards of a 500 minimum GMAT. In that moment, I had a real epiphany - I'm going to have to work twice as hard to get half as far in life. It's a humbling moment when you realize you're well below average.

I spent that year learning how to learn, studying, reading, and bettering myself in all aspects. In the early summer of 2020, I thought I was ready to try the GMAT again. I took one of the GMAC practice tests and ... 530. Are you kidding me.

That's when I realize I needed help. I couldn't do this alone. I scoured reviews, YouTube, and even reached out personally to people to see what test-prep they liked best. I watched webinars, and realized, a lot of these test-prep companies weren't for me. To add to this, the predatory, HEAVY advertising gave me a lot of trust issues - I know this because I work in advertising... I'm part of the problem lol.

After going to the deepest darkest depths of YouTube, I ran into this review video about some Australian guy who spent a year getting from a 470 to a 710 with the help of TTP. I wanted to believe it was authentic (still not sure because I think he's affiliated with TTP in some way), but tbh, his story was super similar to mine. Real or not, TTP's sales pitch was the most relatable to me.

And oh boy did I make the right choice. If you didn't have a strong foundation in Math or Grammar, you NEED this. Honestly TTP should sell it's course to High-Schools. It's literally life changing.

What I liked most is that TTP didn't FEEL like WORK. Their UI/UX (design of website) is aesthetically pleasing and the module are very easy to follow. But not too easy - they still make a point for you to learn and internalize the concepts (this was HUGE for me).

Also, Scott, the guy who talks in most of the videos is candid and seems like a guy you could have a beer with. Most of the other test prep videos are so monotone and lecture-like. If I had to listen to 6 months of someone droning on about probabilities I would have literally lost my mind. TTP is super casual with their approach to learning which really helps you give a crap. They get it - you're probably not doing this because you live math or the GMAT. It's a means to an end and they make it as painless as possible.

By the end of this long journey... I can say I earned that 700!

2019: I'm from Vietnam and currently a college senior majoring in Management Information Systems in the US. I thought that I had a decent background in math so I didn't focus on the Quant section at first. For my first attempt in December 2018, I got a Q44, which was very disappointing. I decided to give Target Test Prep a try after reading a lot of reviews on GMAT Club. I was in a time crunch so I decided to go with the accelerated study plan. I used the ESR from my first attempt to study my weakest chapters first. For each chapter, I studied the Must Know Review and then did 3-4 medium tests and 1-2 hard tests. I invested approximately 40 hours in total over 8 weeks and finally got a Q49 in my second attempt in March 2019. My improvement from Q44 to Q49 definitely came from the structured approach of Target Test Prep. Target Test Prep does an amazing job at breaking down each chapter into a manageable unit of knowledge. I love how each test question connects directly to a lesson so that I can quickly fill my knowledge gap. Jeff and Scott are also very responsive to emails to answers any questions. I'd highly recommend Target Test Prep for anyone who wants to improve their Quant score.
2021: On my 3rd attempt at the GMAT, I used Target Test Prep again to practice and keep up my quant skills. I ended up getting the same score as in 2019 (Q49) with a total score of 760! Again, highly recommend Target Test Prep for quant prep
