I was introduced to gmatclub almost 2-3 years ago but started using for the last 9 months now. I can say that its one of the best resources out there for gmat aspirants.
Few of the points I would like to mention:
1. The immense knowledge you through forums helps you solve the most tricky gmat questions, helps you find the best courses in the market with their USP's.
2. The blogs and post of many individuals and companies help a lot in clearing conceptual doubts.
3. The GMAT club tests and quant questions if practised thoroughly are the best way to increase your quant score to Q50/Q51.
I am thankful to gmatclub for having all the resources that helped me in preparing for GMAT.
GMAT Club tests provide more simulated practice than any of the other self-paced GMAT prep courses. It offers a lot of practice material, which can help you better recognize GMAT question types and improve your test-taking ability. It also uses adaptive learning technology to help you focus on areas where you may struggle. They have more than enough practice questions and quizzes and the structure of the program would really benefit you. The scores that you get are quite are by far the most accurate. They are nearly as accurate as the real thing except, perhaps, on the high end.
I purchased gmatclub tests three months ago and am writing this review to renew my subscription
Verbal is not helpful and I don't recommend it to other people who are studying for gmat. They often have ambiguous answers that will just make you confused. I often could not agree with the answers especially in verbal.
Math is really challenging and helpful, my quant boosted from 37 to 47. I highly recommend gmatclub practice tests to anyone who is aiming for 700+ in gmat. I gained a ton of knowledge that helped in solving hard math problems. Practice mode is really good because you can see the solution one by one right after you solve each of the questions.
I subscribed to the gmat club tests a few days before the exam and was surprised to see how accurate the content was. The questions were very similar to what I received on the actual test day. The quant tests were more accurate than the verbal ones and I mainly used the quant tests. The quant questions are however consistently harder on the gmat club tests than the real test as in the real test the questions go from medium hard to hard depending on the test taker's capability. For me this was a good thing as I made a lot more mistakes during my gmat club quant tests and going through the solutions later on really helped strengthen my concepts.
When I started preparing for GMAT, some friends advised me to buy Manhattan Prep CATs and use GMAT Club to supplement my learnings from the former. However, having the membership of both the CATs and the forums, i found GMAT Club to be a more flexible and effective in terms that it was more conducive to my learning style. The dynamic learning experience through the forums is undoubtedly enriching. The structured analysis of the CATs was very useful and allowed me to identify my weaknesses and hence improve scores within the stipulated time. I have suggested my friends who have taken the exam after me to use this platform as their main material for preparation.
The GMAT quant questioned offered at GMATClub tests are of a higher difficulty level but they cover almost all question types and are very helpful for the final day. Even if someone doesn't score 50-51 in those, it doesn't mean you are weak in quant, just keep practicing and you will see the results on the final day.
The Verbal questions offered are not so difficult, but they truly represent the final day verbal section. A good practice of those will also help you boost your score.
Overall GMATClub tests are a must package for all students aiming more than 720 on the final day.
I have been using GMTA Club tests as a primary resource for practice questions. My impression so far:
1) QUANT TESTS: Quant tests are really good.. They are the hardest quant questions you can find for GMAT. Excellent resource for students with strong quant. Don't be depressed if you get low scores compared to other tests.
2) VERBAL TESTS: Verbal is good.. But, compared to other tests, my scores are a little lower for verbal section.
3) Discussion forums: This is the best part! Almost all questions have excellent discussion posts where you can get valuable knowledge on different ways to approach the question.
Definitely a must, if you'd like to improve anywhere from Q45-51 !! The questions help you understand the topics tested on the GMAT into much greater detail and help you prepare for the uncertainty factor in the exam. What I really liked about the question bank is that it is divided and then further sub-divided into topics, and this structure significantly helped me focus on my weak areas. I took topic-wise quizzes, and the approach seemed to have helped me improve on quant overall and made me feel confident about the concepts/questions typically tested on the exam. I'd recommend GMAT Club tests to all the test takers aiming to get a high quant score!

The GMATClub questions prepare you for everything that can possibly be tested on the GMAT
GMATClub's 700 level question pack are an incredible collection of actual GMAT like questions. The course is designed in such a way that even a Quant novice can have concept clarity by diligently following the study plan. Several tactics and methods are unique and nowhere to be found on the internet or Quant reference books. These methods will not only increase Quant efficiency but also improve the timing aspect in the test. GMAT test takers will highly benefit by enrolling
All the best for your exam!!
I would like to share my experience with the gmatclub tests for Quants and verbal section. Haven't looked in the IR section much ..... but here is my analysis
PRO's
1. Topic wise problem sets. As you are done with a couple of tests the weak areas start to show up. Topic wise section helps in reviewing those sections that need maximum work.
2. Best and worst analysis. Similar to the point above, this section helps in identifying the weak areas with clear empirical stats and other important metrics. Really helpful.
3. I found the verbal question to be similar difficulty as the real GAMT exam. However the Quant was of much higher difficulty level questions, especially some of the 700+ level questions were actually very difficult.
Thus this test pack is highly recommended.
