Strengths:

TTP logically breaks up the material into topics that build on the skills that you learn in previous lessons. The program is so thorough that completing the course prepares you to handle any question you'll see on the GMAT!

Would make the product better:

I genuinely have no recommendations for improvement.

TTP is the real deal. This is the only GMAT prep course you will need to ace the GMAT! TTP gives you all the tools necessary to succeed and structures their course so that you can reach your goal as soon as possible! TTP was absolutely critical in helping me achieve my score. The material gave me such a great foundation of knowledge and skills before moving on to Official Guide Practice Questions. Just as important, the topical structure of TTP allowed me to easily revisit topics of weakness to practice, review, and refine skills before test day. I highly recommend TTP!!

Strengths:

Comprehensive Content: Target Test Prep offers a thorough review of all GMAT topics, ensuring students are well-prepared for the exam.

Realistic Practice: The platform's practice questions closely mirror those on the actual GMAT, providing a valuable test-taking experience.

Effective Strategies: Target Test Prep provides valuable strategies for time management, study planning, and problem-solving, which are crucial for success on the GMAT.

Would make the product better:

Incorporating personalized study plans based on individual strengths and weaknesses could help students optimize their preparation. But this gets offset by the analytics service that it offers, giving you details about your timing and correct answers by topic.

Target Test Prep is a comprehensive and effective GMAT preparation tool that helped me achieve a score of 705. The platform's content review is thorough, covering all the essential topics tested on the GMAT. The practice questions are challenging and closely resemble the actual GMAT, providing a realistic test-taking experience. I found the strategies for timing, study structure, and test-taking to be particularly helpful. However, the platform could benefit from more interactive elements and expanded explanations for certain questions. Overall, I highly recommend Target Test Prep to anyone preparing for the GMAT. Its realistic practice questions and effective strategies make it a valuable tool for achieving success on the exam

Strengths:

I love the structured format of both quant, verbal, and DI. The way that questions (both examples and tests) that you get incorrect are saved and you can go back and try those again with a fresh mindset are invaluable. It's saved me many times, when I realized I was subconsciously making the same mistakes, and I was able to improve on those.

Would make the product better:

I feel like there could be more practice content for verbal and data insights, but the questions that are there currently are immensely helpful and helped me get the concepts right, which is ultimately what you need to score well.

The way the course is structured is brilliant, its pretty lengthy but for good reason. The quality of questions is excellent, and the hard questions really make you think on the spot, and that gives you the ability to be able to tackle almost any question during the actual exam. GMAT exams have a tendency to throw anything at you, which when students give mocks will realize, and TTP trains you for this eventuality.

The video solutions are good, but I never watched them, because the text solutions are crystal clear with logic. The chat button is available if you want any clarification, and the team is mostly good at getting back to you in time.

I wish the verbal and DI sections had more questions like quant (which is an absolute mammoth to get through). I trusted the course in the sense that I knew if I solved every question properly I'd be in a very good place to get an excellent score.

I didn't follow their timetable feature - I was working alongside prepping and sometimes I was just too drained after work, so I went through the course at my own pace and made effort to grind on the weekends.

Overall, I think this course + OG questions + mocks is all you really need, and you should have everything in place to get an outstanding score.

Strengths:

prepare to score max especially on quant, and verbal which is essential for non native as me

Would make the product better:

maybe something to review everything shortly, because i find that the card slides are not that grat to review

top course for GMAT out there I believe there is no other alternative as much competitive both in price and quality. I belive especially if you are non native and you want to spend less time as possible on gmat this is the choice. I belive is also very cheap for what they offer as preparation. if you need any other info reach out to me. however as said before specially for not native this is what make the difference in your gmat score between a 650 and a 750. Also for di is the best course and has prepared really shortly so in just 2 mont i have been able to have a great di score even when other platform had not update yet

Strengths:

1. Fantastic study plan to keep you on track
2. Detailed navigation of the entire prep material
3. Designed to teach and test you to ensure a high GMAT score

Would make the product better:

a more detailed review of mock tests would help

This is the only course you need to prepare for your GMAT. It ensures a good study plan and covers everything under the sun. It gives excellent advice on how to ace the test. I was nervous because I was taking an exam after a decade, but I scored 655 (93 percentile) on my first attempt at GMAT focus, thanks to TTP. It helped me improve in the verbal section by systematically breaking down each type of question and the strategies of each of their questions. It allowed me to navigate quant by building basic strategies on each subject. GMAT course material can be overwhelming, but their study plan helps you systematically approach the test and guides you through every step. The test advice chapters primarily cover all fronts of dealing with prep and game plans on test day.

Strengths:

TTP structures the course in a way you are building knowledge on top of previously learned topics, reinforcing your memory and strengthening your skills. The example questions throughout the lessons + explanations + large amount of chapter tests separated by difficulty levels all add up to really solid understanding of topics covered. So many times during GMAT mocks I caught myself using skills from lesson 1 without a second thought as it came so naturally to me at that point.

What I love the most about TTP is its error trackers and the analytics capabilities, as well as custom tests. At the end of my test prep after finishing the lecture portion, I heavily utilized all these resources to address my weak areas with fresh set of questions over and over again. I only used 1 course other than TTP but I think TTP's resources are truly distinguished and valuable if you are committed to the goal of certain score for your GMAT.

Would make the product better:

- After repeatedly taking custom tests, you run out of quant and DI questions (especially DI). I happen to have some GMAT books I got for free so I ended up using a lot of those for harder questions + GMAT club.
- Video explanations can feel tedious and slow. I watch most of them 1.25x (non native speaker)
- I think some contents in verbal sections can definitely be shortened and instead introduce more questions. Chapter tests didn't have hard level tests unlike quant sections that had a variety of hard level questions.

I started my GMAT prep in mid October with a different course, and after spending (wasting) about 3 weeks with another cheaper course where I could not see any improvement in my quant, I decided to invest in myself and purchased TTP 6 months in November of 2023. It's important to note that I do not have any quant background, and have always been very strong in verbal/literature areas but I decided to pursue MBA with more technical/quantitative focus, so getting decent GMAT especially quant & data insights seemed a daunting task for me.

Anyway, in the previous course, I kept getting frustrated with myself because even after reading articles and watching videos, I got so many questions wrong. With TTP, things were immediately different. I took notes as advised, took every single question available, watched every video explanation and answers for questions I got wrong. And before you know it, I was meeting the target scores of chapter tests with ease. This gave me confidence to power through the course and study for 3 months while working full time.

Eventually, after 3 moths of religiously sticking to TTP course, I took my first GMAT in early February and got 675. I decided to practice a little more for 3 weeks and ended up with 705 at 99 percentile (equivalent of 750 at old gmat).

One thing to definitely note though is that it requires commitment and time investment, especially if you want to be thorough. I work full time so I spent 2~3 hours per weekday and 8+ hours over the weekend every week including Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year Holidays.

To be fair, some people might start with much better foundation / quant skills than I did and thus don't have to spend that much time, and that's great! But for those who are weak in quant and are specifically looking to improve that by TTP, I want to flag this isn't "let's cram in 3 weeks" kind of course.

But if you are dedicated and willing to put in the work - it works!

Strengths:

The course structure of the TTP course is outstanding, and it really helps ease the mind and to not worry about deciding what to study each day, and allows users to focus their mental power on studying.

I felt the questions were almost if not identical to the questions I encountered in official GMAT practice tests and the real GMAT. This made me feel very confident that I was studying the right material.

Would make the product better:

The amount of sentence correction questions TTP has could be extended, especially the hard category.

I used TTP course as my only preparation for the GMAT (without considering the official practice exams)

I found TTP's course structure easy to follow, and removed the mental stress to figure out my own course structure, I could dedicate my whole time to study.

As for the content, I think both Quant and Verbal are tought brilliantly, the course curriculum covers everything you need to know for the GMAT, the explanations are very clear, and the questions resemble the GMAT perfectly, when I took the practice tests/offical test I din't feel any difference vs the TTP questions.

Overall, I am very happy with my TTP experience and would definately reccomend to anyone looking to get an excellent GMAT score

Strengths:

- very responsive community
- extremely detailed program
- easy to follow layout and keeps reader hooked with bite size lessons
- relatively affordable

Would make the product better:

The biggest improvement I would suggest is the ability to further customize tests within the program.

I first took on the approach of only using the OG book to study for the GMAT and scored a 660 after months of studying. So, I decided to start TTP and the way they lay out the lessons finally enabled me to sit down and consume the concepts, which is especially important for people who struggle with a short attention span. After a few months of TTP, my score increased from a 660 to 710 which is right in the middle of the range that I had chose in my TTP study plan. Another major upside of this program is the error log, I constantly went back to this log to master the concepts that I was weak at.

Strengths:

- Well organized. The user doesn't have to worry about making a study plan, it's already created for them
- Very thorough and detailed
- Makes the user actually learn the material, avoids cheap "tricks" to improve your score
- Video explanations on how to solve practice questions

Would make the product better:

Create a virtual flashcard section where students can you a default set of flashcards to study theory or create ones of their own. Have a funcionality similar to custom tests.

Recommend a flexible study plan for people who have a limited amount of time to study for the test.

TTP was the best resource I could have asked for to prepare for the GMAT. Before I began studying, I had no idea how to effectively study and wasted a few months solving random OG practice questions without actually learning the material. After searching for a more structured study plan, I found TTP was the most recommended choice and decided to stick with it after my $1 one week trial given how thorough it is. Turned out to be a great choice.

TTP basically holds your hand all throughout the process and is so detailed and simple to use that you don't need any other resources to study for the GMAT. The study plan has you alternate between Quant and Verbal so you never lose focus on either section and ends each lesson with practice tests that ensure you don't forget what you just learned.

As everyone says, the Quant section is amazing, but the Verbal section was also a life-saver for me, more so given that English is not my first language. Every single topic the GMAT could ask you is covered in the lessons. This ensures the score you get is not luck-based, my practice tests were 10-20 points from my real GMAT score, and I was able to exceed my target score on my first try.

I really believe that TTP is the best plan out there with its combination of lessons, practice questions, practice tests, and video explanations, keeping you engaged every step of the way.

Strengths:

Quant sectionexplanations are great
Chat allows you to ask questions to tutors
The software is easy to use

Would make the product better:

Verbal section is lacking, the theory is super repetitive and not particularly useful, one is much better off watching gmat ninja videos. Overall I would say the verbal section is overloaded with useless theory. In addition, the list of available exercises is very limited, I encountered repeat questions.
Quant section is too detailed for my taste, after doing the same exercise 10x i don't see the value in doing it 10x more, the number of practicing questions testing the same concepts during the course are IMO too many,
Wrong information was reported during the course, the course mentioned it was possible to take the gmat at a test center and immediately afterwards (no cool down period) take the gmat online. This is what I tried to do right before a holiday, I planned the test center option early in the week before holidays (knowing this would be a good practice run) to then take the "real" one in the more favourable online gmat environment. Imagine my frustration when I spoke to people at gmac who informed me a 14 day cool down period applied even after switching from test center to online... This completely messed up my schedule, here I am months later still practicing after taking off 1 month due to holiday (during which I obviously didn't plan to study) Overall really let down the course displayed the wrong information

Overall disappointing, I expected more from the highest rated course.
