Target Test Prep is amazing. It's a fully comprehensive prep course that will get you ready for any question the GMAT throws your way. I started the course after 3 months of self study that resulted in a 640. With the help of Target Test Prep, I was able to strengthen my quant and verbal skills, and also sharpen my mental toughness for the exam. This confidence in my skills lead me to becoming excited for the exam and for scoring high. After extensive study using the course’s written material and quizzes, I was able to score a 760. I do not think this improvement would have been possible without TTP.

I can wholeheartedly and honestly endorse the Target Test Prep products and recommend them to anyone looking to improve their GMAT score. The approach is thorough, methodical, customisable, and doesn't make false promises of instant improvements or secret techniques.

From the get-go, Target Test Prep shows that it was built by a team with a deep understanding of not only the GMAT, but of the people who are preparing to take it. It bases itself in the solid principles of consistent study, practice, and review, and warns against cutting corners or "cramming". If you are looking for a quick and easy way to boost your score, this course will not deliver that, and never pretends that it can.

What it does deliver is a slick, polished, start to finish course that has proven time and time again that in return for time and effort, it can get you the score you need. The user interface is immaculate; progress is tracked and remembered, lessons are broken down into "missions", and the whole process is gamified to provide a satisfying and rewarding experience. The course allows you to make quick and easy notes that can later be recalled for review, has a built in error log, and blends reading, practice, and video reviews into each page.

Scott and the team clearly care deeply about user experience, and their marketing matches their passionate approach to customer satisfaction. Every page invites feedback, there's a live chat available, and Scott will even give individual call time to those who request it. The team are very active on social media and will respond to queries and requests quickly and thoroughly. It was nice to receive an email (automated or not!) asking how my GMAT went, and the TTP team were kind enough to allow me further access to the course in exchange for this review. I should note that while I have been compensated for this review, this is standard practice, and the endorsement is genuine.

I hope that anyone looking to start their GMAT journey strongly considers TTP, and at the very least tries their 1 week 1$ trial. I am confident that you'll love the product, and if you find it early enough, will have no trouble getting the score you're looking for.

I had attempted the gmat twice prior to using ttp. First time I used OG resources and second time manhattan prep. My scores, respectively, were 580 and 600. I needed the most help on math. After some research online I found TTP and signed up for the free trial. The course is incredibly organized and I really liked that. They completely take away any hassle of having to plan your study yourself. They do it for you, all you have to do is show up and put the work in. There were concepts I NEVER grasped before that after doing the module on TTP, i'd sit back and laugh at how well i then understood it. For example, overlapping sets. Prior to TTP, an overlapping set was a skip for me, no questions asked. After TTP, they were my favorite. Same with work problems. They break down the concepts, and starting with the fundamentals, build you up to expert level. The practice problems then solidify the newly learned knowledge. The review before each new module really puts it all into long term. I went from scoring in the low 30s on Quant to officially a 47! I owe it all to TTP.

A GMAT Gamechanger

TTP was a gamechanger for my GMAT performance. I wanted to achieve a score of 750 to get into my desired programs, but TTP helped me exceed that goal within two months of prep. At first, I was concerned that the course would be too long, but I found it to be the perfect length for me to accurately learn all concepts.

The course follows a structured and methodical approach to learning. It allowed me to master each concept before moving onto the next one. I honestly believe that following the lesson and test plan laid out in TTP is enough to take any test taker to a Q48 on a consistent basis.

For the verbal section, the TTP curriculum really helped change my approach. Previously I relied on my ear to determine if an answer sounded right. TTP taught me to instead analyse every answer option and understand why it is correct or incorrect. This took my verbal score to the next level. The critical reasoning resources were fantastic. I found them to be more challenging than the options presented in the actual test. This meant I would rarely get any critical reasoning questions wrong in my official GMAT practise tests. The TTP curriculum was invaluable in providing enough practice to quickly analyse these questions.

Scott and the TTP team provide second-to-none customer service. You can tell that they are passionate about helping their clients fulfil their GMAT scores. I'm very glad I used TTP as a learning resource and believe they are responsible for helping me exceed my score target.

Prior to starting TTP, I took a practice GMAT and scored a 32Q and an overall score of 610. I dedicated about 6 months of review through TTP and ended up with a 45Q and overall score of 700. In my practice attempts, I scored all the way up to a 49Q and 740.

I really enjoyed how thorough the course was and the wide variety of topics it covered. By constantly quizzing you throughout the chapters, and then provided benchmarks tests along the way, you had a good understanding of how well you were performing and recalling topics from earlier in the course.

Highly recommend if you are looking to focus on improving your quant score.

During my year-long on-again, off-again relationship with the GMAT, Target Test Prep was a constant for my Quant studies, and was ultimately the tool that helped me go from Q38 to Q46 (620 to 720 total).

TTP is a well-structured resource with all of the GMAT topics organized in a clear and sensible manner. The format eliminates the guesswork and makes it easy to track progress and revisit topics, which is especially useful when life gets busy and GMAT studying gets temporarily pushed to the back-burner.

The seemingly endless number of practice problems of varying difficulty levels made it easy to properly account for content I already knew well or needed to study more. The instant feedback after completing chapter quizzes made studying engaging, and helped me get into a groove when persevering through long study sessions.

The Analytics feature, with performance analysis by topic and customizable quizzes, allowed me to optimize my study time, making review and practice sessions extremely straightforward and valuable.

Finally, I experienced amazing customer service and support from Scott and the rest of TTP team. They genuinely root for their users and are always there to help!

When I initially decided to start studying for the GMAT I bought some prep books and tried to self study but did not feel like I was making much progress. I talked to some friends who had recently taken the GMAT and they recommended TTP so I decided to give it a shot and right away felt much more productive with my time spent studying. The course provides a great structure for working through all the possible Quant topics with detailed lessons, examples, and sample problems followed by quizzes of varying difficulty related to that topic. The questions all come with thorough explanations and links back to where they were originally discussed and you can track the questions you are getting wrong so you can see what areas you are struggling with and then re-visit those questions later to make sure you have it down. There is definitely a great balance between learning new topics and re-visiting old topics periodically throughout your study plan. The thorough and defined structure of the course really helps make the study process straight forward so you can spend your time and effort focusing on learning the topics as opposed to trying to figure out what to study next or what to revisit. And throughout it all are bits of advice about general test taking strategy like when you should start focusing on question timing, how/when to guess, etc.
The TTP team is also very supportive, responsive and friendly; definitely reach out to them if you have questions or concerns and they will be there to help you out. I didnt use the Verbal section of the course very much since I was already pretty solid there so I dont have any input on that, but I was able to get a score I was happy with on my first try so would definitely recommend using TTP for the Quant section if you are looking for a thorough and structured study plan for all topics quant related for the GMAT.

When i enrolled with TTP, I was struggling a lot with Verbal and Quant concepts. My understanding on the concepts was weak and that was not allowing my score to increase. TTP's topic wise course structure helped me grasp each concept easily while also providing easy methods to save time. The question based learning method worked well for me in solidifying my concepts before moving to the next. I would whole heartedly recommend it to everyone starting their journey on GMAT. My score improved by 70 points through the course. TTP also provides cheatsheet around idioms and mathematical formulas which you would need to constantly keep going through to save time in exams.

My very first GMAT practice test without any preparation was around a 580. I hadn't done any quant or verbal for 6 years! I then proceeded to study by myself using only the official MBA practice questions and after two months I eventually received a 690 on a practice, but I couldn't break 700. I knew I could do better, but I didn't have any direction. I was just doing mindless practice problems. My studies trailed off and ended after that. A couple months later I decided to try again, but with some help. After reading several reviews, looking through forums, and trying some free trials, I chose Target Test Prep (with the Verbal Beta). TTP is an excellent program to follow, and it's probably the best Quant program available. It will teach you everything you need to know from the ground up. You can easily gauge your understanding with the several chapter quizzes. I recommend getting 90%+ on all Medium difficulty quizzes before proceeding to the Hard quizzes or even the next chapter (If you want a 700+ score). Throughout the way, you can chat with their coaches. Marty, who scored an 800, is a master of the GMAT and an awesome coach. His understanding and in-depth responses helped me far more than any forums. Ultimately, I took the official test three times: 710, which I ended up canceling because I knew I could do better (I was getting 760's on Official GMAT practices), 730, and 740. I know I can do even better (I only did half the Verbal beta lessons, and on my 740 attempt, my Quant score dipped to a 47 because I was so focused on Verbal that I didn't review my Quant on TTP!!). However, I believe I have a high enough score to apply to the mba programs that I want. Overall, I absolutely recommend TTP and Marty. For Verbal I followed a mix of TTP Verbal Beta, which was incomplete at the time, and gmatclub's own GMAT Ninja. For Quant I solely used TTP.

Great product - improved quant score

Course Target Test Prep Dedicated Study

Target Test Prep (TTP) was instrumental in improving my quant score, bringing my score up to a 48 (from a 45) and bringing my total to a 730.
What I found most helpful about the program was how easy it was to navigate through the material, allowing me to target weaknesses and focus on improving components of the overall quant section. Through practice sets/exams completed before using TTP, I already had an idea going into the program what my problem areas were. This is what made TTP so effective for me because it allowed me to strategically select areas to focus my practice and ultimately improve.
Although I came in with this understanding of my own weaknesses, this program is structured in a way that would be beneficial for those coming in "fresh" as well.
I truly cannot recommend this product enough, and have already passed it along to many of my friends as they go through the same preparation journey.
Although I cannot speak to the verbal section of this program, if it is as high quality as the quant is (which I expect it to be), I'm sure it would be a valuable tool as well.
