Hello to Everyone!
It is my first post and I am happy to join such a greatly motivated community!
I am starting my GMAT journey and already this forum and it's people have been of great help.
Right now I am making my study plan and it would be great if you guys could give me some advice on how to proceed with my GMAT studies.
Current state if things:
- I have 4 month left till exam and I am ready to commit 2-2,5 hours daily with a Sunday off.
- Target score 650 (700 would be great)
- First Official Practice test score 510 (SC was the weakest section for me. CR was the strongest (scored in 99th percentile ) )
- GMAT pill access
My plan to get to 650:
- Enrol for online courses by Veritas or Manhattan prep
- Follow GMAT club regulary
- Study! Study! Study!
My dilemma(I would greatly appreciate your help here):
I am now choosing between Manhattan prep and Veritas prep online course.
Overall it seems that Manhattan course is an industry standard also I like the fact that course material is spread out over 9 week period. The only drawback and a substantial one is course instructors. For dates and times that fit my schedules (I am from Finland so it +7 hours difference:) ) there are 3 instructors available Stephanie Moyerman, Josh Braslow and Joe Lucero. The problem is not in instructors really but in the absence of information about them. No feedback, no reviews while in my opinion Instructor is quite important in online teaching.
As for Veritas prep, I hate the fact that it is only 6 weeks long and overall it seems that Manhattan is the market leader where Veritas is trying to grab market share in sometimes slimy ways The only reason why I consider Veritas is a world renowned (as they claim) instructor Ravi Sreerama. So if Ravi is so good maybe it makes sense to risk it and take Veritas Prep. As sometimes I feel content is not as important as great mentor is
Question: Which one should I choose? Have you heard about any of the instructors from Manhattan GMAT that I mentioned?
Your help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance dudes!

"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."
