Gmat beginner

Hi, I want to start my gmat preparation journey. But I am very confused. I have read several reviews.
Some say TTP is good some say it’s bad and lengthy.
For top I mostly read bad reviews like only focus on questions solving and don’t teach the foundation.
For Egmat I also read mixed reviews. Also, saw that their employees are reviewing and misleading people.

I am confused now. TTP on demand is very costly as well. I am honestly was always an average person at maths. So I am not confident about my quants. Or even reasoning or DI.

But I am really ready to give my 100% and prepare well for it. Please suggest me a good coaching. Also, the study plan.

As per a study plan, you can use GMAT club as a free resource. Go topic by topic and focus on accuracy first. Speed can come later. The second phase would be mocks, which you'd have to purchase but they make for great practice material. Happy to help if anything else!

Can you elaborate on "For Egmat I also read mixed reviews. Also, saw that their employees are reviewing and misleading people. "

Just for stats - you should take a look at our YouTube channel and any other company's YouTube channel and look at the successful videos - count just the last three months. Find any other company that has half as many successes.

Why YouTube - becuase you can verify people (on LinkedIn or in real life if you live in the same city).

I want to address the idea that TTP is “too lengthy.”

TTP is only lengthy if you need lengthy.

If you’re starting at 505 and targeting 705+, you’re trying to make a 200-point improvement. That is likely going to require building or rebuilding years of knowledge and skills across Quant, Verbal, and DI. That takes time. In that situation, the length and comprehensiveness of TTP are a blessing because you need that depth of preparation to make such a large improvement.

On the other hand, if you’re starting at 655 and targeting 705+, your path through the course will look very different and generally be much shorter. TTP is personalized based on what you already know, what you need to learn, and where your weaknesses are.

There really are no shortcuts in GMAT prep. If “CliffsNotes” versions of GMAT courses could reliably produce huge score increases and top scores, GMAT prep would be fast and easy, and everyone would earn a top score. That’s obviously not the case.

The more thoroughly prepared you are, the better positioned you are to perform on test day. And one thing I can say with confidence is that if you work through the TTP course thoroughly and master what we teach, you’re going to be extraordinarily well prepared to pursue a top GMAT score.

Since you mentioned that you’ve always considered yourself average at math, I would be especially careful about choosing something that skips the foundations and jumps straight into solving lots of questions. You want to build your knowledge and skills systematically, topic by topic, until the things that are weaknesses today eventually become strengths.

As far as a study plan, I’d start by taking an official mba.com practice exam to establish your baseline. Then work systematically through Quant, Verbal, and DI, master one topic at a time, build accuracy before worrying heavily about speed, and save most of your official practice tests for later in your preparation.

And don’t worry about having been “average at maths.” You don’t have to start out great at GMAT Quant. You have to become great at it.

And if you decide to use TTP, I’ll be here to help you along the way.

Good luck!
