Strengths:

Structured syllabus: TTP Flexible Prep Course helped tremendously in structuring my study with their comprehensive and highly up-to-date syllabus. I lacked such a structure in my first 2 attempts at the classic GMAT, which resulted in sub-optimal results.

Abundance of practice tests & reviews: the repeated practice tests, divided by difficulty levels, really helped me dial in the skills needed to efficiently and accurately answer questions across all topics tested in the GMAT.

On-target practices: these on-target practice tests, strategically placed towards the end of the course in practice exam section, really helped me zoom in to topics and specific question types that I am the weakest at and to practice them again and again until I have mastered them. The practices helped me navigate these questions much more quickly during the actual exams.

Would make the product better:

One recommendation I have is that all of the dedicated review tests are quant-focused. I would have loved to see more dedicated review tests for verbal & data insights.

Overall, I attributed most of my score improvement from my previous attempts to this attempt to TTP Flexible Prep Course. Some of the features and strategies recommended that were the most helpful to me:
+ Study plan featuring comprehensive syllabus of topics and question types that GMAT asks
+ Active review worksheet: complement the course syllabus closely. I would advise all students to actively take notes to absorb the contents from the study notes better. This really helped me memorize the knowledge almost instantly and become a quick source for reference as I was doing my practice tests.
+ lots and lots of practice questions and tests: nothing is more effective in upskilling than practice, practice, practice. and this course provides an abundance of practice tests, dedicated reviews, on-target practices (where based on your performance in practice tests & study notes, TTP picked specific questions for you to practice in a dedicated on-target practice test)

As someone who is inherently skeptical about paid test preparatory courses and attempted to take the GMAT twice just from studying on my own, TTP Prep Course really debunked my skepticism. It was, no doubt, my most worthwhile and rewarding investment in boosting my GMAT score. Highly recommended for anyone who just started looking at GMAT or who struggled to break through to achieve a score you desire.

Can't think of anything

I absolutely loved my experience with Target Test Prep for GMAT Focus! The curriculum is incredibly comprehensive, covering every aspect of the exam in great detail. What impressed me most was the adaptive learning platform - it felt like having a personal tutor who knew exactly what I needed to work on.
The question bank is massive, and I never ran out of practice material. Each question comes with a thorough explanation, which really helped me understand the underlying concepts. I also found the analytics incredibly useful. Being able to track my progress in real-time kept me motivated and helped me focus my efforts where they were most needed.
The flexible study plans were a lifesaver for me. I could easily adjust my schedule to fit my preparation around work and other commitments. Overall, I felt that TTP gave me a structured, efficient path to improve my GMAT Focus score. It's an investment in your future that I found well worth it.

Strengths:

1. Amazing lessons
2. A lot of practice problems to strengthen concepts

I got a 695 in GMAT Focus with the help of TTP study material. I used it mainly for verbal and DI as I was already good at quant.

I went carefully through all the CR and RC lessons and it helped me build strong foundation and the practice problems helped me strengthen the concepts.

I was able to apply techniques and get more questions right.
I used mock tests to analyse my learning and I saw consistent improvement. My score in mock went from 595 to 675.

I liked the text explanations to questions, they were detailed and thorough. Course teaches you the right way to attack problems and avoid tricks.

TTP is best if you want to improve your score.

Strengths:

The Quant study is very organized and takes a holistic approach to ensure that you address weak spots.

Would make the product better:

The data sufficiency questions could be improved upon to include logic-based questions as several of those showed up on the real exam.

This program is excellent for individuals who want to go through each topic in detail for the Quant section especially. With the surplus of questions, you can get more than enough practice for each unit and ensure that you are comfortable with all sorts of questions related to the topic at hand. A really neat feature involves creating custom tests such as only including questions you have gotten wrong or spent more than 3+ minutes on. This lets you filter through the overwhelming number of questions to address certain pain points and develop your quant skills.

I used this program for 1 month plus the 5 day trail before writing the GMAT Focus Test for the first time. I used the accelerated approach as I was familiar with some of the topics already and had somewhat of a decent quantitative foundation.

Strengths:

Structured perfectly. It's amazing to go through each chapter, do the practice questions as they come and then do the practice test phase at the end where you complete each level of practice tests. All in this makes you very prepared, I felt very confident going into the test.

Would make the product better:

Nothing really, perhaps some way to do a diagnostic and then only work on the sections in which you struggled.

Target Test Prep is the only course you need. After reading some Reddit reviews, I landed on target and I couldn't be more happy with my decision. When I initially wrote my diagnostic test, I got a 675. So I was already quite happy but I really wanted to push for seven M7. so I completed 100% of the course in 2 1/2 months I then wrote the rest of the practice tests on mba.com. I finished off with a 725 on the focus edition and I've gotten interviews at four out of the seven M7 schools. I strongly recommend target as I think the structure is perfect. They show you all the formulas and strategies you need and that someone who went in completely blind and only used TTP, I couldn't be more happy with the score I came out with.

Strengths:

-Complete course, it looks to address every type of question and content.
-Specific orientation: it automatically designs a specific study plan according to your needs.
-Easy to follow: the recommendations and the study plan are there, it is up to you to follow it.

Would make the product better:

Could update the content faster: GMAT focus is constantly adding new content to the test. TTP does address this by updating the content they teach constantly. In my case, I had a few questions in the practice tests, which were not seen in the study plan. The plan was updated and such questions were included 3 days before the test, so I managed to check it short before the big day. Still, the course is enough to be very well prepared at test day, even if you have this kind of issues.

I come from Chile and I have an unconventional background (not math or business related). I had an injury that kept me for some weeks out of work, and I had to choose between watching movies and series, or doing something productive for my life. I chose the latter, and decided to give GMAT a first try with 6 just weeks to study. I had to do it efficiently and start studying in a disciplined fashion with a well structured study plan right away, and Target Test Prep was the solution. I had a "diagnosis test" within the course, in which I got a bad quant score... but by dividing the study plan's tasks in my available time, and having an intense routine, I was able to achieve my goal of getting a great score efficiently. I was worried about having to take the test a second time, due to having to study while working not being ideal, but it was fortunately not necessary. I did 100% of the "learning fase" of the course, and had to compress the "practice test phase" by taking 2 official mock tests a day, on the week of my test day. I was somewhat worried by having an initial 565 score in the first mock, but it was due to a bad time management. Practice gave me confidence, the quant part of the course gave me the skills I needed, and with the verbal and data insights sections I could understand the logic underlying those questions and face the test with a solid strategy.

Strengths:

The plethora of questions they have for each topic is commendable. Moreover, each question is bucketed topic wise and difficulty wise. Thus, giving the candidate fair idea on how they are performing.

Would make the product better:

Though the entire course is very helpful and really helped me boost by score, I found it a tad bit costly. Something that can be looked at especially for Indian candidates.

The Target Test Prep Course was really very helpful. I used it especially to strengthen my verbal and data insights. The materials provided for verbal not only taught me few tricks I should be adopting during the exam but also helped me get some fundamental aspects regarding each topic cleared. Also for each topic there are a lot of questions one can practice from. This gives the candidate enough exposure to GMAT like questions. Also, if we answer any question wrong, then the course allows you to choose why you answered it wrong. As you do this activity for various questions, it helps you identify what the most common mistake is while you are answering questions. Target test prep is highly recommended for all aspiring GMAT Focus takers!

Strengths:

Great at making concepts simple and easy to remember, and gives lots of transferrable practice to make test day the easiest day.

Would make the product better:

I excelled at the verbal section, and quit doing verbal lessons/practice after only a few modules, and still scored in the 98th percentile for verbal. Keeping in mind that everyone may not be as lucky as me in this regard, I do think the verbal portion can be less material, saving studiers some time.

Great product! I scored beyond my target. Well worth the money if you take the GMAT seriously. Chapter tests for Target Test Prep are significantly harder than the GMAT itself, so you will be more than ready when test day comes along. Simple lessons that are easy to understand and gives lots of practice. I was fortunate to be able to dedicate all of my time to studying, but I can very easily see someone working TTP studying and tests into their down time while working a job. The timing of practice tests and global reviews, paired with the test taking strategy section which the student takes sporadically throughout the course are all very helpful as well!
Cannot speak highly enough about TTP!!

Strengths:

TTP teaches you all the right strategies to be employed in test day on the various topics covered by the GMAT. There is plenty of content and it’s all very well organized. The possibility of taking custom tests is a big plus. Everything is designed to make you develop the right foundations for a successful test day.

Would make the product better:

Overall the product is very complete and well designed

TTP is a great resource that makes you build the right foundations and skills needed to be successful on test day. It truly helped me rebuild my confidence in Quant from scratch . The study plan suggested by TTP gave a clear idea of what I needed to do in order to get to my target score . Custom tests helped me work on my weaknesses while also learning to deal with time pressure.
I spent plenty of time taking thousands of exercises . It was really worth it. I ended up attaining a great score on test day despite being a non native speaker and being not accustomed to math anymore . Thank you TTP!

Strengths:

Overall this program was instrumental in the completion and success of my GMAT FE journey. When I first started studying for the test I had ordered the GMAC official study material and was just reviewing chapter after chapter. It became very clear to me early on that I had no way to effectively organize my study schedule for such a large test that covers so many different topics. TTP really did help me organize my time, goals, and what I should be studying/targeting every session leading up the the actual exam. This course was also rigorous in the sense that I felt like the practice was harder than the test itself, which really helped making the actual exam feel a lot less stressful.

Would make the product better:

As a comp sci. undergrad, I have a big thing for good intuitive UI and platforms that are flexible enough to meet the needs of all users. For me, I sometimes felt the UI and error tracking was a bit underwhelming in terms of functionality. I'd like to see the addition of custom error tracking statuses as I found I was often making errors that I didn't really feel fell into any of the fixed groups. I'd also like to see functionality to skip lessons instead of having to wait for them to expire.

Overall I don't think I have too much more to add than what was stated in terms of specific pros or cons. I think one of the keys of this course was not just helping me navigate the content of the test, but the structure and methodology of the test independent of whatever content it may contain. There were lots of pieces of information that helped me really approach the test in a more intelligent way that I would not have been able to do independently. They really take the time to break down the test so that you understand what the test is and what it's trying to do. I think once I really understood what the test was and how it was testing me it made me approach it in an entirely new way. There were sections throughout the course reminding me what my goals were, reminding me to take my time, and that studying for a test like the GMAT is a marathon and not a sprint.
