I have been taking GMAT club tests for past 1 Week. I started with these tests after I was done with my preparation from OG 2015 and few other tools.
The very first test I gave, I was taken by surprise with my Quant score, which was less than my expectation.
1. The questions are quite tricky , lets one learn new tactics to solve problems.
2. Tests do not follow the official GMAT pattern. I faced a tricky 700 level question as my first Quant question, which sort of stumped me, but that should not be overwhelming. The key with these tests is to learn more and get better
3. A wide range of questions under Quant - 26 Quant Tests
4. Fewer tests under Verbal, but they are certainly good - & verbal Tests
Overall, a great tool to learn tricks , understand high-quality questions and get a better score.
I definitely recommend GMAT club tests to everyone.

This is a review that is truly well deserved.
GMATClub never ceases to amaze me. From the details that have gone into making this website, from the ability to bookmark, see your workbook etc, this is a must-have for every GMAT test taker. The GMAT Club tests are another testament to the arsenal of weapons that GMAT Club gives GMAT takers.
It packs the most comprehensive set of questions(and the best in terms of numbers) and allow creating collections or ease of reviewing questions that were incorrectly answered. If you want to practice a specific topic, you can do that too. A must have resource for every GMAT test taker, especially for the Quant part! Thank you GMATClub!
Having gone through OG and Manhattan materials, I can safely say that the quickest way to gain that coveted Q51 score is through GMATClub tests. I scored Q47 on my first try using the aforementioned materials, and was looking for that extra boost to get the Q49+ range. The tests are punishing in their difficulty, but also elegant in a way that truly test and hone your concepts. I would recommend doing these tests untimed first to gain a sense of the difficulty of the questions, and then timed to really build your test-taking skills. I ended up scoring Q50 my second time around on the GMAT, and these tests played a huge role in allowing me to do so.
While the questions on the free GMAT Club test that I took were harder than those on actual GMAT, in general, I feel it's really a good option to get acquainted with all kinds of GMAT questions and concepts.
Specifically Quant section covers all the concepts. Verbal is not so reliable, but, then again, these tests should be seen for the purpose of knowing as many concepts as possible.
The no. of SC questions was too low in the mock that I took, for some reason.
All in all, I would suggest people definitely take atleast 1 GMATclub test before appearing for actual GMAT.
I recently signed up for the GMAT Club tests and I have been pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of the system as well as the question bank.
I have already taken the official GMAT and have a score of 730 on the exam. I am now studying to improve my score to the 99th percentile.
The testing system is pretty straightforward and resembles the official GMAT system very well. The feel and the operation mimicking the official test helps you get in the zone when attempting a test. The option to pause a test can be very helpful during practice. The crown jewel is the practice mode which is ideal if you want to practice at your own pace. The sheer quantity of tests and questions is also a big plus.
The analytics function of the GCT is unmatched in my opinion. I have taken tests from all the major services (Official, Kaplan, MGMAT, Veritas) and the detail in the analytics offered by GMAT Club is unmatched in my opinion.
The place where the system needs to improve is the algorithm itself. I was thrown a couple of extremely hard question right at the beginning of the test and getting those incorrect put me off slightly. This usually does not happen in the official test and the difficulty is generally incremental. A few easier questions were present in the middle of the test even after I had answered difficult question correctly. The algorithm could help use some work I think.
Overall, I am extremely impressed by the GMAT Club tests. Anyone looking for additional practice and honing actual test taking ability should most definitely give them a look.
Cheers
I was having problems with the verbal section and after taking some practice exams and not getting the proper score i needed to get over the 700 score i decided to purchase the GMAT Club Tests. With their explanations on concepts i was having problems with my verbal score started to improve. i started at v23 and leapt to v36 after five verbal tests. As for the math i wasn't bad usually hovering around v42 but with constant practice i am averaging v47. I do recommend the tests to supplement your studies. With an overall view of how you are doing you can quickly hone in on the areas you need to focus on and increase your score
it's been 1 year that i first discovered gmatclub forum , and since then i didn't regret no second spent on this forum , the atmosphere is very "cozy" with student from aroud the world chatting over some tricky subject ; nothing so serious that you imagine yourself sitting on a library with some friends .
As a young student from morocco who is willing to pursue his studies in the Top BS in US gmatclub offer to me the opportunity to be connected with a world that i didn't know and i wouldn't have known without my involvement in this forum .
I highly recommend gmatclub to everybody who is lost with all those informations available online, and who is looking for something credible and helpfull
GMAT is adaptive, and if one performs well early in the test sections, the subsequent questions get harder and harder. As 500 and 600 level questions are relatively easy, practicing 700 level questions is the ultimate key to scoring high.
GMAT CLUB TESTS were not only a BRILLIANT source of extremely hard 700 level questions, they were available in the form of actual exam style CATs. I haven't come across such a high quality practice tool anywhere else on the internet.
The QUANT section on the club tests has improved my knowledge base, time management and approach to tackling tough questions. I really have never felt this confident with the GMAT ever before and I am really grateful for this tool to have been available.
In short, don't think twice, purchase the GMATCLUB TESTS and get going!!
I am writing this review after appearing multiple quant tests in GMAT club.I did not need to do even OG quant to appear GMAT.I scored 49 only based on my preparation from GMAT club test series.The problems here cover all the concepts of actual GMAT and is a tad higher in terms of difficulty level.But this prepares you for a high score in quant.I was scoring consistently 48-49 in tests and with a mediocre performance in GMAT , I scored 49 in the actual exam.These tests helps you build your core skills with problem.If you are someone who does not like to go through theories , concepts of quants before attempting problems (kind of boring task for me) or you are bored of doing easy or calculation intensive OG problems , then this test is for you.It will familiarize you with all the concepts through problems and it also challenge you with tricky problems evenif you are very good at quant.

GMAT CLUB website is the leading website I have ever encountered which provide the best support system for both pre GMAT test and Post-test and also it is one of the most prefered websites for all the GMAT test takers for the listed reasons.
Firstly, GMAT Club has the best review of all the top GMAT preparation institutes as well as the top admission consulting companies which is most helpful for MBA Aspirants.
Secondly, it is the best place to practice and the best place to get all the explanation for all the possible question for GMAT.
Finally, the Gmat Club tests are a must have if you are aiming for a 700+ score, most reliable tests.These questions are not only great in number but also in terms of variety and standard. Also, the explanation is concise, clear and to the point. I found the filter of question difficulty level divided into 500, 600 and 700, as one of the best features.I would highly recommend the GMAT club tests to all those who are struggling to get their scores up in Verbal and quant as these are probably the best resource that you could lay your hands on.
And to conclude I will highly recommend all the GMAT test taker to regularly visit GMATCLUB website to be updated with GMAT preparation materials and the various suggestion and guidance to ace the GMAT test.
