the gmat club provides around 26 quant and 9 verbal tests
both quant and verbal questions are superb and high quality with full detailed explanation.
you can also pause the tests when in case of any issue and resume it later.
the performance is shown graphically clearly showing where we were and how much have we improved .
also on basis of you last verbal and quant test a cummulative score is calculated which you can expect in real gmat exam too.
the quality of questions is very high and there are no mistakes.
i tried the tests and now i can proudly ay without them my preparation would seem incomplete.
Cheers!

I have been taking up some of the Quant tests by GMAT Club and they are certainly better than anything out there. They are highly recommended! Though I haven't been able to take all the tests yet, but I can easily vouch for the top-notch quality and content of the tests. Add to that, well-detailed answers by Bunuel. Though they are tougher than their GMAT Prep counterparts, but it is actually worth all the pain since they claim to prepare you for Q50/51 and I won't detest that as well. Go for them if you need some good practice and some concepts that you might have skipped thinking they are some notches higher than the usual GMAT training stuff.

In my opinion the GMAT Club Tests are great. The similarities in the format with the GMAC exams are awesome. Note I'm talking about the format.
When talking about the algorithm that measure your accuracy and in response give you a harder or easier problem I think there is space for improvement.
The quality of the problems in general is great. I was very surprised when I first took a GMAT Club Tests. On the other hand, 1 out of 10 of the solutions offered in the tests aren't detailed enough. Let's say there are 5 steps of reasoning for the whole exercise and you only put for example. 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th. In my opinion I wasted too much time trying to find that 4th step and since I own a business I do feel I’m wasting time even though I also feel that trying to find that 4th step helps me to be more focus.
Another thing I found helpful are the comments below, when I find the solution useless I scroll down and MOST of the times I could find a good explanation.
Hope my review helps you to improve GmatClub Test.

Gmat Club Quant tests are one of the closest to the real test experience. The scoring is almost same as the real test as well. These are one of the best source to practice quant along with the regular OG questions
Gmat Club Verbal tests are again pretty good, however not that accurate as the quant tests in term of being close to real test experience. Having said that they are again extremely good to practice and get ones rhythm going. Only thing i felt was that the explanations could have been a notch better in these tests.
Overall these tests of worth every penny you spend on them.

The GMAT Club tests are an important tool for your test prep. The quant tests will prepare you for more than you could ever see on the actual GMAT. They obviously have a different style than that of the official content, but still is valuable practice. Every question has a detailed solution along with a thread attached with discussions of the problem. This was significant for me to learn alternate methods to solve problems or think about problems from different aspects.
The only the approvement I could recommend would be to put more into the verbal content to bring it to the same level as the quant content.

I haven't gone through that many tests yet, because i was primarily concerned with mastering the concepts for both quant and verbal, but i can say that your test are quite good, but with some minor flaws. I have started going through verbal tests at first and to me they seemed a little bit inconsistent. Sentence correction questions are good as well as the explanations, but critical reasoning have some gaps in them. Some of them seem to be structered in a confusing way in comparison to OG questions. And the explanations don't provide much insight. Reading comprehension is ok. As for the quant questions, the problems are clear and structured well, but the explanations are sometimes very short and hard to undertsand.

Amazing help to increase score and develop test acumen
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
Gmatclub tests were an amazing supplement to my study course to take shorter tests where I could really zoom in and analyze my mistakes. In longer tests initially you tend to make silly mistakes till you get used to the length so these tests really help you test your level and improve upon it. The quant section is also very strongly representative of the real gmat level - I would suggest to really take a few of the quant tests leading to the weeks before gmat rather than just focusing on gmatprep tests which some people tend to do because gmatprep is at a slightly lower level than the questions you get during the actual gmat where your level keeps increasing if you get questions right.

I have taken GMAT tests from Magoosh, Veritas, Manhattan prep, and GMAT club. Magoosh is amazing in terms of content and price. They have the best customer service too. Veritas prep has great exams and they really focus on questions which require critical thinking. Manhattan Prep is over hyped with Math questions a lot more difficult than the real test and the verbal questions can all be solved using Manhattan's strategy but not really applicable on the real test. Finally, the GMAT club has the best exams. Very close to the real test and it helps to see the exam in the same format as the real test too. Math questions are 700+ level and the written explanations are great too. Only wish there was video explanations for the questions as sometimes it is hard to follow the written explanations.

These tests are close to reality and the analysis is really in-depth. You can learn something by checking not only your results but also the times and the comparison to others. I really enjoy the feature that you can see the level of the questions; that gives you a feeling for the real test scenario. The questions are very versatile and add very well to the Official Guide for GMAT prep books. You can also choose between different modes. I can really recommend to take the chance and simulate the test with GMAT Club Tests in order to improve your score.

excellent resource, if you are aiming for anything above 47.
there are enough 600 and 700 level tough questions covering every topic that is important from test perspective.
the explanations are sometimes too brief, however if you drop a message on the forum, you will most likely get your doubts cleared. it is definitely worth the hype and worth buying. plus if you buy a premium subscription using earned 100 pts on gmatclub, you will get a 30% off on current prices.
verbal section isn't good, the questions aren't up to gmat level.
however it is still worth buying this product because the quant material stands out.
