Testimonials

I had an incredible experience working through Target Test Prep's self study materials and working with two of the tutors, Jeff and Scott. My score improved by 8 points after using the materials for ~3 months. I originally took the GRE after studying for ~2 months with Kaplan materials, and my quant score was ~5 points lower than it had been using their practice tests. I thought it was helpful to complete their course so I could do the in person practice test day, but the quantitative portion of their program didn't help me significantly improve my score.

After chatting with a mentor and realizing that I needed to get a much better quantitative score in order to get into the MBA programs that i was interested in, I started looking into other tutoring options. My mentor recommended Target Test Prep, and I'm so glad that I listened to her advice! Scott and Jeff are extremely patient tutors, and gave me very direct feedback on my progress throughout my time working with them in an empathetic way. They also broke down the GRE problems in a digestible way, and they were more than willing to go over an explanation two or three times if it didn't make sense to me the first time.

The self study materials were also extremely helpful, because they clearly outlined the sections/types of problems that I needed to work on. When I study I have a habit of avoiding the questions that I'm not good at, and this program forced me to break this habit. The timed custom tests that I created through their program were also extremely helpful and resembled the timing/type of problem on the actual test. By the time I got to test day, I knew that I could have studied more but the online tool clearly outlined that I had done a lot of work and that it was possible for me to improve my score. During the test I felt much more relaxed than I did when I took the test post the Kaplan program, and when I got my score I was completely surprised to see a 165 on the screen. My quantitative score ultimately improved by 8 points, and I am feeling MUCH more confident about applying to top MBA programs. I'm so grateful for this program and all of the time and energy Scott and Jeff put in to helping me achieve my GRE goals!

Before working with Target Test Prep, I purchased GRE prep material from all the big name companies such as Kaplan and Princeton Review, and I self-studied for about three months. I thought that I was well-prepared, but after taking the GRE, it was clear that I was not. I had spent 90 days studying and found no obvious improvement in my GRE skills, nor in my score.

I contacted Target Test Prep because a friend of mine had great success with them. At this point, I had deadlines looming and a busy schedule, and I was worried that I wouldn't have enough time to properly study before my next test date. To my delight, Target Test Prep was able to accommodate my schedule. My tutor was prepared for all of my questions and was even able to expose additional weaknesses of mine. We diligently worked through material and covered a majority of the highly-tested topics on the GRE math section. He also gave me a course of GRE verbal self-study that was immensely helpful in raising my verbal score. Going into my second GRE, I felt super confident and well-prepared because I was ready for all the traps the GRE was undoubtedly going to throw at me. My score improved significantly, jumping from the 60th percentile in both sections to the 80th percentile in both sections!! After seeing my great score appear on the screen, I knew that my money was well spent. Target Test Prep did an outstanding job preparing me, and I would recommend them to anyone who needs help improving his or her score.
