I gave my first GMAT without much prep and received a score of 640. For my second attempt, I did some preparations using OG and the free OG Mocks, but still wound up getting a disappointing score of 670 which was well below my target range.

I decided to give GMAT again about a month later due to a fixed timeline, but was not sure how to approach the preparations as I needed to raise my score significantly in just a month. On researching online, I found a few reviews of TTP, and found their monthly flexible plan to be quite cheap as compared to other courses.

The quant course was well structured and helped me raise my score from 42-44 to 49. Even the verbal section was helpful as I managed to raise my score from 38-40 to 44.

The major issue I faced in quant was that despite getting most of the questions I attempted right, I was not able complete all the questions in the time given. In TTP, the practice tests were extremely helpful as were the shortcuts and tips provided, and I was able to reduce the time I required. In fact for the quant section on the actual exam I had some time left over.

TTP was extremely helpful, and I believe anyone who religiously follows their course would be easily able to achieve their target scores.

TTP was super helpful in building on my foundation in quant. I used the accelerated track since I had already done quite a bit with Manhattan Prep. TTP did a great job of introducing not only all the types of problems, but all their variations as well. It was super thorough and the biggest help was the large number of hard level chapter tests. There were especially sections like combinations, permutations, and probability that were way more in depth than some of the other prep books I had already done. I can't speak much about Verbal since I only used TTP for quant, but from a quant standpoint it was more than enough to raise my score quite a bit. Highly recommend TTP.

Honestly, TTP was incredible. Everything was set up for me from lesson plans, practice problems, etc. It was just a great way to know what to study and when, and there wasn't too much outside of TTP that I needed. One thing that I also appreciated was the "assigned readings" which outlined the test, strategy, and ways to improve. That was equally as important as the actual material in most cases. Additionally, after I took my first GMAT and wanted to take it again, Scott gave me two weeks for free which was incredibly cool of him.

I would recommend TTP to anyone.

Before stumbling upon TTP, I had spent 7+ months paying for self-paced and instructor-led courses with other test prep companies. No matter how hard I studied, I could never get past a 690 on the GMAT (specifically, I was stuck at V43). I was losing confidence by the day. After only 2 months of self-paced studying with TTP, I improved my quant score to 45/47 range and V44, with an overall score of 720. TTP was tremendously helpful in achieving this score with what felt like minimal effort! I went from studying 15-20 hours a week with no concrete plan or strategy to 10-12 hours a week. TTP material is way more digestible, fun, and easy to apply. Highly recommend!!!!

Target test prep was key for my GMAT score. I have used other platforms before, but none of them provided me with top content on a great platform. This was extremely important for me to have a good view of my performance over time and decide where to focus my efforts to increase performance in my weak areas.

I used it for two months for both quant and verbal. It was important to have a clear view of how I was doing, something I did not have in other platforms, in order to prioritize my time and decide what to study next. I believe we all have busy work schedules and it is difficult to find time to study at this point in our careers, but what I found out is that having a platform that helps you prioritizing what to study is extremely important to succeed.

I thought I could get a good GMAT quant score just by brushing up on my maths concepts. Easy right? Not at all. The GMAT quant section is a different beast, and I was not prepared for it. I realised I had gaping holes in some of my concepts. After wasting a couple of months studying from a few popular books, I finally signed up for TTP. I had seen glowing reviews, but did not imagine the course to be this thorough.

Each module first explains the concepts, and then drills them into your head with the sectional tests. I did all the modules and all the sectional, and review tests in order. It definitely took me some time, but do keep in mind the course is front loaded i.e. the first few modules take longer to complete. I spend 250+ hours on the platform and solved over 3500 problems. The fact that the platform is so well designed and thought-out also helps.

When I started taking Practice Tests, I felt great. No question type felt unfamiliar, and that was true even for the actual GMAT. I used the practice tests to better my timing strategy - which was also something the TTP team covered during the initial strategy call they offer.

The verbal module is also great, and very very extensive. I personally did not complete the whole thing, but if you have the time, I highly recommend it.

I started my GMAT journey last March, when COVID shut everything down. I figured it'd be a great time to shut myself in and prepare for a few months. When I started studying, I took a diagnostic test from the GMAT Official Guide, and I remember stopping something like 15 questions in because I was guessing on every single question. I didn't remember any math at all from my high school days, and I didn't study math in college either. I never got my diagnostic score because I was so bad at it I couldn't even finish the exam.

I tried the Target Test Prep trial version and found it very accessible and well constructed. After the trial ran out, I bought a subscription and started studying for 1-2 hours a day every day. I only used it for Quant, and over the past year, I re-learned everything I had forgotten about math over the past decade. I found TTP to be extremely helpful. The video explanations and problem solutions were easy to understand, the pacing of the course was perfect for me while I worked a full time job, and the lessons were constantly updated to be more comprehensive. I took the GMAT last month and scored a 50V / 48Q / 770 total, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without TTP. I don't know what my original score would have been since I quit the diagnostic halfway through, but I imagine I improved by a margin of at least 150 points, if not over 200. Strongly recommend for anyone struggling with math like I was!

Loved the Target Test Prep service - it allowed me to work on my own time and really grind on the Quant. It can seem a bit minimalist, but I really enjoyed how simple the lessons were and TTP was always on hand in case I had any additional questions. The videos were also very insightful and really focused on understanding the concepts rather then gaming the test. I also liked the feeling of incremental growth as TTP employed a tracker that indicated where you were on your progress. Would definitely recommend to those starting out or are unsure about your time commitment as it is very flexible!

I can't recommend TTP enough. Coming from a zero quantitative background, I studied for 4 months with a group of education professionals. The result of my first two attempts was disappointing for my aspirations: I scored 640 and 680 (with a Q42 in both). I knew that my Quant section had to go up in order to achieve a higher overall score but I didn't feel comfortable nor did I grasp every topic from the basics. I decided to start a flexible plan with TTP, set a target score of 46-48 in Quant, and went through every section, exercise, and practice test. After 3 months, I was confident enough to give the GMAT a new try and managed to get a 710 (Q47, V42)! TTP rocks.

I started my prep process with a Q42 on an official GMAC practice test and, within a month, had bumped up to a Q47/710 on a real GMAT exam. The math preparation in Target Test Prep is comprehensive, clear and attainable even if you haven't been steeped in quant experience for work. It's long, but worth the effort because it exposes you to almost all of the tested concepts on the quant section. The surprise benefit for me was the verbal section. I went through it fairly quickly and was able to improve from a V38 on my first official practice test to a V44/720 on my second sitting for the real GMAT exam. Thanks to Scott and team for creating a stellar product and for being personally available when I had questions or reached out.
