TTP gets a lot of love for its quant course, and deservedly so. I started with a fairly high quant baseline, but TTP made it easy to identify my weakest areas and build a plan to improve them. The actual material is very solid and presented in an easily digestible way, but the tools like the error tracker, analytics by question type and concept, and the clear study plans are also incredible.

Where TTP really made a difference for me was in the verbal section. I struggled with sentence correction and was frustrated since it was holding me back from an elite score. TTP's SC material covered the core concepts just as clearly as their quant course, but the real key was the question strategy and mindset that it teaches.

TTP is a great product and along with the official guide, you don't need to look anywhere else for a solid GMAT study plan.

I would recommend Applicant Lab without reservation. There are things you can't really change in your application (GPA, school, etc.), but Applicant Lab really helps you make the most of the parts of the application that you can control.

The Lab was a game changer in writing my essays and crafting a compelling story for each school. The self-service model appealed to me (as did the price), especially after some underwhelming consultations with traditional admissions consultants. I probably didn't use all the storyboarding/planning tools to their fullest, but just the advice and videos alone were so helpful. For example, beyond the big ticket items like essays and recommendations, there are a ton of little things in the application forms that I probably would have underutilized without Maria's guidance in the Lab. Early on, I also used the "Sanity Check" service with Carin. Her advice really helped me view the application holistically and identify areas to focus my attention.

If you're serious about MBA applications, you won't find a better value than Applicant Lab.
