GMAT club tests are great practice materials. Quant particularly is simply great and much needed in case some one is aiming for high quant score. Quant questions are top notch and can improve the score drastically if worked out diligently. Verbal is okay. The verbal sections questions are good if not great. The UI for the tests is almost same as the GMAT. I would strongly recommend the quant practice tests. The dashboard and analytics are very useful. It shows overall accuracy and section wise details. I do not think there are any other products available which provides option of taking sectional tests. Overall a great product.
I have started to prepare for the gmat 3-4 months ago. I used during preparation e-gmat verb and GMAT Club Test for Quant part. Initially when I attempted several CATs on GMAT Club Test, I was scoring about Q30-34 and I was pretty upset since I was naturally good in math in high school (14 years ago graduated). However, I decided to review the basics and then start attempting one-by-one. GMAT Club CATs not only gave me a sense of where and how I am performing, but also a sense of timing, which is very important during the real exam. After 3 months of preparation and usage of CATs, I have started scoring Q49-51 on the CATs and only have required polishing some small beats-and-pieces. So, when the real exam came, I scored Q48, which I am not satisfies and hence decided to re-atempt. During my preparation, I am only using GMAT Club Test for the math portion, especially as I took a real exam, because I believe it is simply the best tool available to score high. The task are very similar and very close to the real GMAT. Explanations are full. Performance analysis is very helpful as it shows you where is you weakest parts. I would definitely recommend to go for it to anyone who is seriously considering to score high on Quant.

I got GMAT club tests access through collecting kudos and thus had three months free access to the tests. The tests are a great help as it allows one to create his/her own tests by selecting the number of questions, topics and difficulty levels. One can use this feature effectively as and when one gets more confident in his/her prep stage. The difficutly level on the Tests may be high but it prepares you for the worst and when you finally see the solution you realise that even the 700 level questions were doable. That's the beauty of these Tests. They keep you on your toe and at the same time make you realise the importance of paying attention to finer details in the problem.
For Verbal I would say the tests lack collection of good quality questions which are within the purview of official questions. I solved a few SC and RC questions and as I am pretty familiar with the pattern of questions asked on the GMAT, I realised that these were not really falling within those parameters.
Nevertheless, as I am someone who's less confident in Quants, the GMAT Club tests are a blessing. Their in depth analysis really helps you organise your overall performance and almost makes use of error log redundant. I'd suggest go for them, even if just for quants!
This should be the destination if someone is aiming to score high on Quant. 700+ question are very similar to actual GMAT.One can slowly improve the proficiency level by practicing the quizzes and then take few CATs to a feel of actual GMAT Quant.
I wish this had some tutorial specially designed to cater to GMAT quant. Then this could be just 1 stop shop for all your Quant related queries.
The tool to analyze the progress is very well designed and actually helps to analyze and improve. One can create his own customized tests to practice individual topics.
Kudos Great Job !!
I have given the GMAT thrice. The first time I used only the OG and landed up with a Q46 - majorly because I ran out of time and couldn't answer the last 5 Quant questions.
The second time, I did the OG and the OG supplement (quant review), but still couldn't go beyond Q48. It seemed I had learnt everything, but I was still blank on a few questions.
This year though, I read review and decided to buy the tests. Because I didn't have much time before the GMAT, I could complete only 8-10 of the GMATClub quant tests, but, oh boy, they made a WORLD of difference. What they did was, made me comfortable with each question type and helped me pace. It helped that the interface is exactly like the GMAT.
There is a bug though - when you switch to practice mode, the timer's label is changed but the direction of timer isn't. The only other con is that some questions may not exactly be 'GMAT' types, but these are rare - so if you're stuck at a question / concepts seems absolutely alien - check out the question stats. If the timer says average for all GC users is over 4-5 minutes, chances are that question wouldn't appear on the real test.
All in all, I would say GC tests had a BIG role in me going Q48 to Q50, would definitely recommend!
Firstly I would like to say that Gmat Club is an extremely helpful and updated community. It has every information one needs about Gmat. Coming back to the tests I found Gmat Club test extremely good predictor of Official GMAT. It's one of the best gmat test experience one can have in the market. It's scoring system and questions are quite accurate in difficulty. To be honest one can rely on Gmat Club test.
Secondly GC test are somewhat difficult , not crazy difficult but there is a difference of 5-10%.
All in all it is a good practice and let's you know pretty accurate score and helps by letting you know where you stand.
To improve the gmat club test I would suggest adding more test so that i can be confident enough before giving Gmat as there are not many good gmat test Available in the market.
Gmat club tests are most reliable tests, vetted by Genius Bunuel himself. In my experience while preparing for my Gmat i have been using these tests where i used to score Quant 42-48 and verbal average 30 .Quant tests are very useful to learn/approach advanced questions and to refine one's skills and pacing. They also provide difficulty level of questions where you went wrong in Results. A candidate can choose his modes according to his comfort and can move forward accordingly. It also contains charts and graphs which gives an in depth analysis of your performance .
I recommed GMATCLUB quant tests to anyone who want to fine tune his skills and reach 50+.
Gmat club tests are most reliable tests.Quant tests are a must for anyone targeting 48 and above.It is very useful to learn/approach advanced questions and to refine one's skills and pacing.The explanations for each of the questions and the technique is super. The type of questions matches those of the actual GMAT.Moreover explanations provided makes it possible to solve any 700+ question in under 2 minutes.
They also provide difficulty level of questions where you went wrong in Results.Performance analysis and various different data helps to improve our score and concentrate on weaker areas.
It will be really helpful if we were provided full length mock exams in addition to Quant & verbal tests!.
I would recommend the gmatclub tests for one's preparation towards the GMAT.
When I took the first GMAT Club Quants Tests, I scored a mere 44. I realised that achieving a 50-51 on Quants is not just about being strong in Maths. GMAT Club Tests test you on the most difficult areas and prepare you for the worst of the situations. GMATClub Tests helped me move from a 44 on mocks to a 50 on real GMAT If anyone plans to score north of 50 on quants, GMAT CLUB tests are a must. Don't be disheartened by the low scores on the GMATClub Tests. The explanation given for each question is flawless and helps to clear the concepts. The average score on GMATClub Tests is the actual measure of the scores on the real test.
Really like the tests. For math, you would not have to practice separately as these tests are more than sufficient. The tests cover all the important concepts starting from basics to 700+ standard questions. Personally I feel, this should be a good start for the whole test prep. The interface is also really good and more or less gives you the feel of the actual gmat exam. For this reason, I would definitely recommend taking these tests to start your test prep.
More tests in Verbal section would have been useful. Only 8 tests are available and i felt this is a little less.
