Thank you Target Test Prep for making the studying process, easy, fun and effective! I had done well on my SATs, but hadn't taken any tests for so many years that the GMAT material was not coming easily to me at all. When I decided to switch from the GMAT to GRE and get the test done to apply for business school, TTP stood out to me as a study tool because of the seamless interface, progress tracker, and comprehensive material covered. Not having to keep track of notes and progress manually or think about staying organized allowed me to dedicate my full mental capacity to learning the material. I put in a lot of hours, but got through it all in just 7 weeks. I took the real exam one time and was happy with my score of 329! I don't think I could have studied that quickly if not for TTP keeping me motivated and on top of things. Thank you!
So I had decided to take the GRE after not being able to cross the 680 mark. I was obviously quite confused as to how to approach learning for entirely different exam. But I was glad I used TTP because it introduces you to the different kind of GRE questions very quickly. So I never really felt i needed to go through various articles to figure out the format of the test as such. The quant is very comprehensive and its essentially designed for someone really willing to put the time in. I have a degree in chemical engineering but there were a lot of things that TTP taught me especially in math. TTP i felt designed its math not only to help you answer it correctly but also improve your time management because at the end of the day you are under time constraints. The verbal section is also quite good it introduces you to a few concepts although i do feel that if they added a few more tests within the course it would easily be on par with the Quant section. Jeff and Scott were also really helpful guiding me from my mediocre GMAT score to adopting a GRE mindset. Jeff (bless his soul) also gave me valuable advice a few days before my exam which really helped build my confidence. So i feel that they dont sell fluff but more a skill. Ultimately i am extremely grateful for this course as it makes me a significantly more competitive candidate
I decided to pursue an MBA after over 7 years of service in the military. After settling on the GRE as my standardized test, I sought out the best possible test prep program. A friend recommended that I look at the TTP course, and I quickly went all in on the 6-month comprehensive study program. The course structure and interface are second to none. Additionally, the depth of quantitative preparation is not replicated across the industry. After being out of the classroom for many years, the rigorous program allowed me to efficiently re-learn all the required math concepts. There are literally endless practice problems, and this program definitely challenges you to work hard!
Ultimately, this program put me in the best possible position to succeed, and I boosted my Quant score from 160 to 168!
I've been out of school for 10+ years and am looking to make a later in life career change. My foundation, especially in quant, was extremely rusty and never really that strong to begin with. TTP quickly ramped me onto all the need-to-know concepts with formulaic, rubric style content that tested your mastery along the way and provided a path to brush up if you weren't hitting the mark. TTP made me so much faster at immediately recognizing the concept GRE was testing and gave me a way to solve questions I previously was too intimidated by. My scores represented a 14 point increase from my lowest mocks and helped get me into my first choice program with full funding and definitely couldn't have gotten there without the TTP team.
As a busy working professional, Target Test Prep was incredibly helpful to me achieving my target GRE score. Because of structured nature of the course, I knew exactly what I was going to study everyday, as well as how I was going to study everyday. I really appreciated how the program was set up to backwards plan from my test date which reassured me that I would have enough time to get the score I wanted. And the clean and simple interface really helped me to put all of my focus into the actual content that I was studying.
Ultimately my score jumped 10 points from my first practice test because of TTP! Anybody who strives to maximize their GRE score should absolutely sign up for TTP.
I could go on for days about the quality of TTP. The way TTP delivers content made previously challenging concepts easy for me, and the flexibility of the study plan was great. I improved my quant score in a matter of weeks by using the custom test feature, drilling hard problems and becoming comfortable and confident with challenging problems across topics. The ability to go back to certain chapters easily was also helpful, and tackling problems in the context of the chapter content was great. Also, the instructors themselves are great - the one-off (free!) webinars were helpful to continuously refine skills and understand new ways to solve problems.
I only signed up for the TTP Quant Service but based on that alone TTP is a five start service. Immensely detailed course but very manageable to break the modules down into sections based on your work schedule and hours available per week. I chose TTP specifically because of their reviews and I can wholeheartedly say I agree with them now after improving my Quant score with their program. The video explanations were exactly what I needed for help and their example problems really set me up for success for the actual test day. I’ve already put another friend onto their program and will keep doing so.
Highly recommend TTP for Quant! They newly launched a Verbal portion but I didn't use it as much, but would still recommend given it comes in the package.
TTP was incredibly detailed, going from the basics to the more complex topics that really lets you learn the material from the ground up. The error analytics tracker was also amazing - allowed me to save questions that I was unsure/got wrong throughout the whole process.
TTP also separates out quant topics so it's easier to go back to certain sections once you've done mock tests, and re-do areas you aren't sure about or know you need to work on.
All the answers, content, and video solutions were super helpful - highly recommend!!!
I used Target Test Prep for 5 months in preparation for the GRE. After not studying math for years and scoring a mid-range score on the diagnostic test, I was able to score a 333 (169 verbal, 164 quant) on the final test. Target Test Prep has a great course plan and progresses through material at an appropriate rate, giving in -depth lessons and practice questions/tests for every subject. I would definitely recommend this course if you are trying to achieve a high score on the GRE. The course can be tailored to whatever score range you desire and includes an option to speed up in case you are running short on time prior to a test. Additionally, including the practice tests (purchased separately) from the ETS website was helpful in preparing me for test-taking conditions prior to my test date.
I was worried about how I would do on the GRE when I first decided I wanted to apply to full time MBA programs. I work in the medical field and hadn't done much that relates to the test in years. I took a baseline test and scored a 318 (158 V, 160 Q). My target programs all require a score above 320, so I started looking for test prep programs.
I knew I learn best through repetition and practice, so when I heard about TTP on reddit, I signed up for the free trial. It really meshed well with my learning style, especially for quant. I ended up signing up for the 4 month plan, which was perfect for me and a great value. Every quant chapter builds upon the chapter before it, and the example questions and explanations were fantastic for learning. I didn't follow the study plan perfectly as I had a decent quant foundation, but I completed quite a bit of it. The medium and hard level questions were VERY close to what I had on the adaptive section of the GRE!
The verbal section was great for the fill in the blank questions. I also enjoyed the breakdown of the CR section and think I could've done even better on the GRE had I completed more of it!
I'm very thankful for TTP, and I'm feeling so much more confident about my upcoming applications!
680 mark?
