GMAT Club Test

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

The Quant Tests are very helpful! I find the questions are very well designed to touch upon the fundamentals that are essential for a high score on GMAT. The subject ranges tested are also pretty wide ranged. More importantly, the questions are very tricky; so they help get you very attentive and cautious. The biggest advantage of solving the question sets is that you will be able to minimize silly mistakes by leaps and bounds. These silly mistakes cost a big chunk of the overall score. The other half of this amazing story is the excellent pool of explanations for each question. Some of the explanations are very elaborate and also, go beyond the concepts necessary for the question in hand and rather discuss at length covering similar concepts. These question sets are like a learning platform in gradual stages. An amazing tool for quant skills development.
Verbal tests are quite good too. But, I found the passages do not reflect the pattern of the actual GMAT. There are only 3 passages instead of 4. And, too many SC questions were left for the end of test.
Overall, these are very good tools for sharpening your skills. But, you must have a mastery of the all available OG questions to be able to understand well the tricks and trades of GMAT. Best of luck!

GMAT Club tests - My observations on both sectional tests

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Hi Team,

Let me get straight to the point. I will review the tests based on sectional.
1)Quantitative:

I am pleased with the quality of the questions( especially 700 level) . You get a 47 above in these tests and it is sure of Q51 in the main exam. Having given the test twice(scored Q50 both times), I am quite sure how the questions would be in the actual exam. 700 level questionsof GMAT club tests are close in logic to the actual 700 level questions you can get in the main exam.
However, the lack of adaptiveness of the tests is bit disappointing. As we know, GMAT is a mental game. Simulating the exam conditions by adopting a adaptive algorithm is crucial I believe. It doesnt make sense to get a 600 level question in the last 5 minutes when you are doing really well.

2.Verbal:

Again the quality of questions is very good. But the number of questions is too low(compared with quant). A person like me who is weak at verbal( which is most of the cases) is not that benefited from GMAT club verbal tests. I would suggest developing more verbal questions so that everyone gets benefited.Put yourself in my shoes!! what will you think when you see 25 quantitative tests and ONLY 8 verbal tests side by side.Again the adaptive algorithm is missing.

Best thing about the tests is that it's User Interface is same as that of GMAT. It gives a feel of accustomed to the test .
I am currently seeking a 2 week extend to my subscription as I am giving the GMAT again on oct8th,2016.

P.S:
I criticise only when I feel the other party deserves an imrovement i.e they are currently doing good and be dominant with further improvement.
Excuse me in case i sound too harsh.

But since Jan,2015 I am a big fan of GMATclub and love to be always.

Thanks,
Vijay Suman Nunna.

The Quants Tests are very accurate , however the Verbal tests have questions whose solutions are somewhat debatable (even in forums) especially the sentence correction questions. The verbal tests have a scope for improvement and the score is not so accurate. On the other hand Would definitely recommend the practice test to gauge your level in Quants. In practice tests I was getting 49 in quants and got a 48 on the real GMAT. The solutions by Bunuel are brilliant and they test your basic understanding of the topics. You can always take away something from each question and the takeaways definitely helps on questions of higher difficulty.

High quality tests

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by post count [?]

It is good to solve questions of high quality. It opens up opportunities to learn a lot more than one could have imagined. Tricky quant problems that tickle one's brain is what I was looking for. GMAT Club Tests sure does have quite a lot of such problems.

CATs doesn't really seem to be "the CAT". I know GMAT club has its own algorithm, may be it helps if someone wants to take a traditional CAT with such questions.

When reviewing the tests I felt that it would be nice to show the percentage of people answered for each answer choice. Currently, it only shows the percentage correct and incorrect.

Overall very happy to have taken these tests.

Awesome

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by school email address [?]

I was over confident that i can crack GMAT quantcs. But Gmat club tests proved me wrong. It has exposed me to real tough and tricky questions. The best part is the discussion of the each and every questions with the link to the forum. Apart from tricky questions, the test throws simple questions which are essential to build the fundamentals. This has helped me to identify the possible areas of committing silly mistakes. On repeated practice, my silly mistakes have become negligible in number.

In one word, gmatclub test is one forum to strengthen quants skills. The plat-form can be made more user-friendly, if the analytics can give a consolidated report on weak and strong areas.

Gmat club tests

These tests are a gold mine, especially when it comes to quant. The questions are difficult and prep you up for the worst. The tests will help you to improve speed and conceptual knowledge.

I would urge anyone using these to not get bogged down by the scores as these tests are diffucult.Just focus on the content and try and do the one that you get wrong. This will help you to ace the quant section. Those who are targeting a Q50 or a Q51 these tests are ideal. i would suggest that anyone hitting a q47 and above on the official tests must try these tests

Overall good. The Math section is great - very spot on.

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I was very careful in choosing my practice materials as I was afraid studying a sub-par material would hurt my actual test performance. For that reason, I predominantly used Official Guide for my practice. After a few months, I've exhausted all the practice questions from several editions of the Official Guide. I decided to take a chance with GMAT Club Tests. It was a good leap of faith. Overall the GMAT Club Tests are good. I especially like the Math section. My Math raw score was already 40-45+ when I finished all OG practice Math questions, and it was really hard to find good practice test to boost my score to 49-50, which was my goal. GMAT Club Tests Math section did the job. I eventually got a 50 raw score in Match section in my real test, and found the Math questions in the real test to be very similar to those in GMAT Club Tests. Besides the obvious option which is practicing OG questions, I would recommend every GMAT candidate to do GMAT Club Tests, especially to the candidates who are in the 700-ish range and want to get to a higher score level.

it is a great product with varieties of questions. great source of quant questions, i think if you finish these quant questions, it should be enough to score above 49. You can also see the great explanations from many active users. for SC - need more questions like real gmat style as i see in the gmat active verbal forums. Great source for the verbal CR. This tool displays various statistical data to capture your performance. Based on your weakness after analyzing the test results, you can customize the tests and focus on your weakness. RC passages cover diversified topics and seem a good source the preparation of verbal topic. A great resoruce overall

Better than most others

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Gmat club has been a part of my GMAT preparation. Now The Tests that Gmat club has created has only added to the flavor. Tests are tough than the real GMAT and hence they keep you on your toes.

Good mix of questions with superb solutions helps a lot. Add to it further discussion of the problems on the forum. Main point of tests is not to solve the problems but to understand the solution and recognize the pattern. This is where GMAT club tests helps a lot.

I request GMAT club to increase the number of tests available. I understand that doing so is easier said than done. Thanks for helping me a big way in my preparation.

Pros:
- Enough CAT(specially for Quant) to prepare (You won't need more than this)
- a lot of High Difficulty Level questions
- Good environment for practice (you can zoom it to fit your screen and then press F11) 👌
- Graphs and stuff


Cons:
- Limited Verbal CATs (I am going to reset the exams to practice verbal more)
- No RC questions in the last 2 CATs (but I guess it was a glitch)
- sometime not enough OG like detailed explanation
- People arguing and doubting the answers making explanation of answer confusing. (I am not saying they shouldn't, it just makes you doubt the validity of the explanation)


👍 I recommend GMAT CLUB tests over tests provided by any other online service however there is always some space for improvement.
