I recently took the GMAT for the 5th time on May 15th of this year and received a 740 (Q50/V40/IR8). I had taken it twice in 2015 and twice in 2016, with the highest of the four GMAT scores being a 730.

Prior to taking the test this year, I had received a Q49 on every GMAT I had taken even though I would score a Q50 on at least 50%+ of the practice tests. Through browsing reddit, I heard TTP was the best quant resource out there and decided to give it a try. I think these claims were true – I had taken a competitor’s course back in 2016, and found that it covered the basics, which was probably good enough for someone wanting to score a Q48/Q49. TTP is unquestionably a great quant resource if you’re looking to score Q50/Q51 – it has tons of difficult practice problems and delves into multiple permutations of each question type, which I found extremely helpful for very hard probability, combination, permutation, and inequality problems.

Target Test Prep took my quant from a 28 (15th percentile) to a 49 (74th percentile) in practice tests within about a month of dedicated study using the Accelerated learning plan. I have a STEM background which helps but focusing on drilling the chapter tests rapidly improved my score and whenever I encountered something I was unfamiliar with, the relevant section was well explain and easy to understand. In addition, their Verbal Pre-Beta was extremely useful in my verbal preparation and I plan to continue using it to study for the next time I take the GMAT. If you sit down and do the work with TTP, they've made it as easy as they can to ensure that your score will improve. I noticed immediate results and thus I cannot recommend a Quant preparation program more than TTP, it's so highly rated for a reason!

TTP helped me improve my GMAT quant score by 7 points from 41 to 48 in a month! I probably would have done even better had it not been for some technical difficulties during my test, for which I lost 4-5 minutes at the beginning. TTP's chapters are super clear and helpful and the chapter tests really allow you to identify your weaker areas. I thought TTP was especially helpful for Number Properties and Absolute Value/Inequalities which I definitely had trouble with at the beginning and are two of the most common topics on the actual test. Definitely worth the money and highly recommended!

Took me from 35Q to 50Q (mock exam) and 48Q (actual exam) . The course does take a long time. I would say it took me ~300 hours from start to finish (including all lessons and quizzes). However, going through the entire course gives you all the tools you need to answer every quant question that might be thrown at you. The lessons are extremely detailed but easy to understand and the quizzes build on and reinforce your understanding from previous sections.

My only criticism is that the hardest problems in TTP are not really representative of the hardest problems in OG or the actual exam, but getting 700-800 questions correct is equal parts knowledge, skill, and luck.

Prior to taking the GMAT I had studied for and taken the LSAT, so my verbal abilities were already pretty decent. I searched for a while around the internet before settling on TTP to hone my quantitative skills. I could not be happier with the course. No matter what your previous experience is, TTP will provide sufficient lessons and practice problems to help you achieve your goal score. Like most things worthwhile, it is not going to be easy. However, the organization and depth of the course will keep you engaged and allow you to become extremely prepared for the test. I also really liked how accessible the founders of the course made themselves throughout the journey. I would often get messages from Scott either just to check in or to offer additional support and webinars. You can tell that these guys really care about their students and want to help each of them succeed. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to begin their GMAT studies!

Hi All,

I recently completed the online GMAT and scored 730 (96th percentile). I could not have done so with TTP Quant.

I am currently a senior in undergrad, graduating in 2 weeks with degrees in Cell and Molecular Biology and Philosophy. I haven't taken a math class in about three years, and I was never particularly strong at math. Even in middle and high school, I would do Kumon and other such tutoring in the summers specifically because of how difficult I found math to be. Now onto my GMAT story ...

I took my first official practice test on 3/5/20 and scores a 640 with Q37 and V40. This is with no preparation. 2 weeks later, I took practice test 2 and scored a 650 with Q35 and V44. Over those two weeks, I worked with some other GMAT resources, but I didn't see any gains in my score.

On 3/30/20 I purchases the flexible program from TTP. This is the actual date that I can say I really started understanding GMAT Quant. From the first module, my approach to the questions changed, and over time I started building my test-taking intuition. I immediately stopped using other resources and only did TTP. I wont lie, I only completed a few modules because I am still in school and have a lot of classwork to manage in addition to my GMAT prep. However, the gains came very quickly.

On 4/11/20, by which point I believe I was on module 5 of TTP, I took official practice test 3 and scored a 730 with Q44 and V47. While my Verbal did improve slightly, the Quant improvement that I felt was substantial. This might go unappreciated but actually my confidence during the test was higher because I could see how much better I had become at Quant. In practice tests 1 and 2, verbal was hard because I was kind of sulking at how bad quant went. For context, I always did Quant, Verbal, IR and then AWA as my order.

When I saw 730 on 4/11, I signed up for the Online GMAT for 4/20. I continued TTP, and I took GMAT Practice Test 4 on 4/17/20 and scored Q45, V46, and 740 Total. I used microsoft paint for the quant section to simulate the online whiteboard.

On 4/20 I took the official online and sscored Q48, V42, 730, 96th percentile. So, from 3/30/20 to 4/20/20, my score improved 90 points, from Q37 to Q48 via the help of TTP.

I strongly suggest everyone to use their program! It really changed my approach in strategy and understanding, and it was sufficient in areas where other famous programs were tremendously lacking, in my opinion atleast.

Thanks

TTP has a really huge test bank which I took advantage of to prepare myself on my speed and pacing of taking questions. I also really liked the questions for they felt really similar to the real questions you will see on the official test in terms of how the questions are worded and structured. The explanations for the questions were also really well versed which was very important in order for me to learn new topics.
I did not personally have a strong math background and this course really helped me a ton on building a strong foundation by finishing almost the entire test bank, which took me a month or two.

Absolutely essential quant review service and particularly helpful if you are looking to score 48+ on quant. TTP digs into all key concepts covered on the GMAT and helps build a really solid foundation in quant. If you are serious about understanding all quant concepts / questions before you take the GMAT (which is important if you want to break the 48+ threshold), TTP is going to be right service for you.

The materials themselves assume the user wants to actually learn quant concepts and not rely on tricks and shortcuts (generally), so you are prepared for everything come test-day. Coming from a math background, this is exactly what I was looking for in a review package.

I used a combination of TTP and GMAT Club questions to prepare for the exam, and without TTP I would not have been able to get a 49Q score on test-day (improvement from 47Q on first try, with consistent 49-50 quant scores on mock exams after I completed the course). Really a game-changer if you take the materials seriously

The only negative thing I have to say about this program is that I only found it after my 3rd GMAT attempt. In the mean time, I got my verbal on track but saw that my quant score fluctuating heavily (basically from 33-45). I realized that my quant knowledge was spotty. Meaning, in some topics I could answer 700+ questions with ease while in others I failed <550 type of questions. While it is very hard to identify the weak spots, I was looking for a comprehensive math program that builds up the required quant knowledge gradually, starting from scratch.
That is exactly what TTP does, it has a user friendly and modern interface and an insanely well structured curricula as well as fantastic analysis functions. It made me practice a lot, often >150 quant questions a day and only allows you to progress once you master a topic. While some concepts I knew very well it revealed my weak spots merciless. I felt more confident day by day and more importantly, my scores improved consistently and stopped fluctuating. Getting rid of these fluctuations is key in the GMAT and maximizes your chances of getting the score you want.

In my case, I had to stop this program after completing half of it. However, the bottom up structure of the curricula (you learn basics in the beginning that build your skills for later topics) already made me feel better prepared, not to mention that I had practiced ~2k questions with ttp in 3 weeks. I scored a 44 in quant and it just made me wonder what other score would have been possible if I would have finished the entire program.

Lastly, during my GMAT preparations, I have learned that there is not one course that suits everyone so bear in mind while one program might resonate with me and the way I learn, it might not work very well for someone else. As I mentioned in my GMAT debrief, a good way to understand whether this is the right course for you is to check the expert solutions / replies on the gmat forum. I found the answers from scott (founder of ttp) always very helpful.

I enrolled to Target Test Prep after hearing about it from a friend who was also preparing for the GMAT. Only thing I regret is that I didnt listen to him right away and delayed in enrolling to this course. If you are looking to score somewhere in between Q47-Q50 in quant then this is the course you should enroll to. The best part about this course is that it improves your basics and then develops your skill to do GMAT level questions. I gave the GMAT thrice till I finally scored 720. In first two attempts I got Q48 and the final one was Q47. The success rate of TTP is huge. It literally conditions you to solve GMAT quant questions accurately till you actually end up solving them correctly on the test day. Another point I would like to mention which I feel is very important: while going through the course I had some questions regarding a quant problem which I just couldnt figure out. There is a chat window which enables you to contact someone from TTP and ask them questions. I explained my doubt in the chat window and immediately got a response. In fact I asked too many questions till I was absolutely confident about the question and each time I got a quick response. I highly recommend this course. Just close your eyes and get the subscription. The ROI is huge.
