it is very important to know the source of question one reads. for example one might not want to indulge in questions which are from GMAT Prep or GMAT Powerprep to save himself from having skewed score, etc. Therefore i suggest that it be requirement to post the source as well. when one initializes a thread, he must have radio options with lot of sources with one "other" as option. if posting the source shall not be required, it should be at least suggested/advised by marking in bold red to post the source as well.

Thanks for that suggestion, towerSpider. We're actually working on a system that solves for people adding source to their post. It's hopefully going to release at the end of next month, and we expect it will completely solve this issue!

Really appreciate your sharing your perspective on this. This gets me more motivated to release this new feature ASAP.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
