Hello,

I'm new to the site, but I've spent time browsing through the posts and it seems to be the place to get good answers. So I'm hoping I can get some help about the GMAT preparation classes.

My #1 school choice is NYU, but I'm looking at a handful other top 25 schools. My goal is to score above 700. I've slowly been studying since January and over the next 3 months I plan to dedicate a lot of time to my preparation. Also, I plan to take the GMAT towards the end of September. I've seen companies advertise their GMAT classes like the ones Kaplan offers. I'm interested in the in-class programs, but they cost around $1300+ so my question is are they worth it? Has anyone taken part in a program like this? If someone has it would be great to get their opinion about the program. I'm curious to know about the experience, and if they felt it was beneficial to their success.

Thanks for the help!

2 quick points:

1. Studying since Jan and another 3 months left? I think you are overdoing it

2. Check out course reviews here: https://reviews.beatthegmat.com/

Thanks Arun. I'll check them out. I haven't done a lot of studying. I've more familiarized myself with the the GMAT, bought some study books, and have done some light review. I'm determined to score above a 700 though so I wanted to get an early start.

"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."
