Target Test Prep GRE helped me strengthen math concepts in an efficient way. The questions set included in Target Test Prep GRE GRE prep was very similar to questions given in real GRE test. I answered GRE previous year with a lot of preparation, but only scored 305. This year, I choose Target Test Prep GRE for Quant preparation and surprisingly, I improved my Quant score by 8 points. The user interface is simple and attractive. The lessons were well organized and explained. Great videos with great explanation. Also, the email assistance offered was really comprehensive and I never had any doubt left unanswered. I adore Target Test Prep GRE , I am so happy that I tried it. I will prescribe it to everybody I know!
I wish I had started with Target Test Prep earlier. It is so easy to follow. The video explanations are great, as are the tests you can take along the way. I like that they are organized by level of difficulty. My only suggestion for improvement would be to offer at least 20 practice questions at the end of each lesson, or a link to a bank of these types of questions, which I believe they are working on. They are very open to feedback, respond IMMEDIATELY to your requests, send encouraging literature to read. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Please take advantage of this fantastic resource. Oh, and it's also very affordable, with various types of subscriptions available.
I started with Target Test Prep about one month before my last chance to take the GRE before round one application deadlines. I had taken a comprehensive in-person course through another company, and was disappointed with my quant results, despite studying every day and taking their additional online math course. I stuck with the company for awhile, but reached a plateau in which my score was not improving on practice tests and quizzes, and I could not understand from their materials what I was doing wrong.
I decided to try out Target Test Prep and knew right away that it was right for me. I needed more than just a focus on strategies for test taking. Target Test Prep's intense coursework and clear explanations of practice problems helped me to increase my quant score 5 points in a month, and made me a viable candidate for top programs. My only regret is that I did not start with them from the beginning!
I have to thank, from the bottom of my heart, TTP for getting accepted into the Msc program I am about to begin. I used TTP for the quant section of the test and it really exceeded my expectations. When I first started studying, I used 3 or 4 different prep sites/books but, as the days went by, I found myself using exclusively TTP. I greaty improved my score even though I had very little time to study, was working around 12hs a day and was VERY rusty in math.
TTP is great whether you're already comfortable with the sujects covered or need to remember/learn the basics. The lessons are very clear and the test questions are great. The tips on how to save time (as everyone knows, time is a MAJOR factor) are VERY helpful. Overall, TTP gives you the chance to easily customize your study plans according to your needs and offers a load of truly great material.
I plan to enroll in a PhD after my Msc and I will DEFINITELY use TTP again.
One more thing: customer service is just awesome. All of your messages and questions are answered super fast and by very, very nice people (hi Jeffrey!). They really work hard to solve any problems you might have and give you the best experience.
Thank you so much, TTP!

I used TargetTestPrep for about one month as I approached my first GRE exam. I used those 30 days to do as many practice problems as possible and learn what I struggled with so I could do a bit of supplemental reading as well. I did probably 40 to 50 problems daily on their website and found their practice problems to be very detail-oriented, which is one of the most challenging things about the GRE quantitative section. Overall, it is a great way to prepare for the course. If you use this resource and do as many problems as possible, you will not encounter any surprises on the test and should be able to succeed. I ended up getting a 167 on the quantitative section and attribute much of that to their program.
I started began with a GRE quant score of 155 and wound up getting a 163 when I took the test. I only used TargetTestPrep materials to study for the math portion of the test, so they were the sole cause behind my success! In particular, the massive amount of problems they have available to solve was key in improving my score. Furthermore, the combination of reading material plus problems created a potent combination that greatly improved my understanding of the quant material. I would certainly recommend this GRE prep course to anybody who feels as though they haven't learned any of this math since high school (which is true). Studying for the math portion of the GRE is no easy task, but my experience with TargetTestPrep made it much easier than it otherwise would be!
