I took the test today. Got a 600 (Q43, V29). Here's my debrief:
I have been studying for 2 months. The score trail was as below:
PR1: 430
PR2: 530
PR3: 530
PR4: 490
PowerPrep: 590
GmatPrep1: 590
GmatPrep2: 640
GmatPrep2.2: 640
Real Thing - 600
Test Day:
Woke up with a real killer headache. Revised a little through the day and mostly prepared myself mentally for the test.
Drove to the test center 1 hour early and they let me take the test at that time.
The test was a weird experience.
AWA section went smooth. Then came the real killer the Quant section. I went numb after the first few questions. I tried a lot but confidently i think i answered only 10 questions.
I answered the verbal section the best, was on top of my game. Infact i even double checked the answers at times. In general i found the questions rather easy. I thought this was the effect of a messed up quant section
After finishing the test I was shocked to see the results. Frankly I was expecting a 500 something. The next shocker was the low Verbal score.
I am a little too buzzed still. Dont know what really went wrong. I wasn't going to apply for another 2 years as i still like my job
May take the test again but dont know for sure. For the moment i am happy i came out alive.

"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."
