As someone who hasn't taken algebra or geometry since high school, TTP was a hugely helpful course. I selected the 6-month subscription and chose Expert (46-48) level. The platform itself is very intuitive from a user perspective and in particular, the tools that TTP offers -- Error Tracker, Analytics, and Custom Tests --were of great help to me. They allow you to really focus on your weaker areas prior to test day. Additionally, if you are someone who travels often or studies in different places, having an online course is far more convenient than carrying GMAT books around with you. TTP tracks which questions you get wrong so that you don't have to, which is also a huge benefit when compared with GMAT textbooks.

As I'm sure others have mentioned, this is an extensive course. It took me roughly 3 months to finish it while employed full time, but for most GMAT test takers you get out what you put in. I completed over 2,000 unique quant questions before test day. I did not take any tests prior to taking the course so I don't have a great comparison benchmark but I only got 38% of questions right on my TTP diagnostic before taking the course and afterward scored 80% consistently. I did not use the course extensively for Verbal so I can't speak as much to those resources.

I worked with Soterios on a comprehensive package for R1 of 2021. I truly cannot speak highly enough of Soterios and his expertise. With his guidance, I gained acceptance to three top 10 MBA programs and received ~350k in total scholarship funding across four T20 programs.

With a somewhat non-traditional background, Soterios was able to help me craft my story in a way that was consistent and compelling. He challenged me to dig deeper into my background and really understand the ‘why’ that fueled many of my decisions, and I felt that I walked away from the experience with a fundamentally better understanding of myself. He even spent time coaching one of my recommenders who is a non-native English speaker.

Stratus more broadly has some fantastic resources tailored to each school. Through their interview guides and team of school experts reviewing my essays, I was able to put forth the best fitting application for each school.

In every step of the process, I was impressed with the quality and timeliness of support Soterios provided during a hectic application season, answering my most detailed questions with kindness and clarity. He made a stressful process infinitely more manageable and I felt assured knowing I was submitting the most polished and cohesive applications I possibly could.

I'm really pleased I chose to work with Soterios, and would happily recommend his services and the Stratus team to others. With his advice, I was also able to negotiate a higher scholarship to the T10 program I’ll be attending in the fall!
