All the tests were very good and quite helpful in getting an experience similar to the main GMAT Test. I would highly recommend GMAT test to the beginners so that they get an experience similar to that of the Main exam. The difficulty level of both Quant and Verbal sections seemed similar to that of the Main test. However, I scored around 690 in GMAT Club test but my actual score was quite lower.
I would like to advise that GMAT Club to introduce at least few full tests (including AWA and IR) similar to GMAT Prep.
Great Job!
Thanks!

I really liked gmatclub tests a alot.
it helped me enhance my quantitative and my verbal scores!
I think that gmat club tests are accurate and highly qualified!
especially the way that the quizes work is great
you have the option to choose from practice to test or even browse mode
overall, i feel that the level of the questions was widely distributed, both high low and mid level questions were used and that is an indicator of variety everyone should really not underestimate
once again, thank your for your great practice tests material, it is really valuable!
Thanks!

I have completed 22 quantitative test and feel how significantly my quant section knowledge has improved. Now I am about to move to verbal section. Gmatclub tests are very realistic and truly reflect what you should expect on the test day. The variety of questions is impressive, however, it would be great to see more detailed explanations for questions. Also, it would be great to have some combined gmat tests that include both quantitative and verbal parts. The number of tests is also great, its significantly more than any other test center offers. This applies to both quantitative and verbal sections of the gmatclub tests. After trying different practice test providers, including Kaplan, Veritas and Manhattan prep, it seems that gmatclub has the most realistic and varied test questions.

A common denominator among 700+ scorers, these tests provide you with the 'next level' quant training necessary to properly perform on test day. I have used them exclusively in order to prepare for quant, so I cannot comment on their effectiveness in verbal.
Make no mistake, they are much harder than the real thing. Nevertheless, they give you that extra confidence boost when you know that the actual test won't be as bad. The CAT interface is designed to look very similar to the actual test. The question bank is large, varied, and has a high number of 700+ questions. After going through the OG and learning all the fundamentals, I highly recommend plowing through as many GMAT Club tests as possible in order to build pattern recognition and quick reflexes. Some of the questions will be challenging, so try using practice mode in order to have a proper attempt.
In my opinion, these tests are the most efficient method of using your time if you want to jump from a Q42-47 to a Q48+. Thank you Bunnuel and GMAT Club for such a valuable resource.
I had heard and read a lot about the GMAT club quant tests. People claimed it to be the magic elixir needed to cross the coveted Q50 mark in the GMAT exam. Hence after a lot of research I decided to rely on these tests. And believe me I wasn't disappointed. If you are aiming for a 700+ then these are the questions you need to really to practice. The level of questions and the explanations/shortcuts by Bunnel are all that you need to be fully confident of your Quant preparation. The questions can be practiced as sectional tests(containing 41 questions as in the actual exam) or as customized tests. This gives you the flexibility to practice the questions at will and learn in your own time.

* Quantiative Tests
Along with Manhattan CATs, GMATCLUB Quantitative Tests are of my favourite. Thank to the question pools of quantitative, I got 49 in Quantitative section. The percentage of tough/difficult questions is high compared to the low-level one's. That might make us acquainted to 700+ questions in real tests (honestly I think that the 700+ questions of real test is not as difficult as GMATCLUB Tests's ones).
The negative sides of the quantitative questions is:
_ The explanations are sometimes not easy to consume.
_ The questions of graphs (Quadratic Equation) and coordination geometry is quite rare.
_ Few questions are unnecessarily difficult.
* Verbal
_ If all you want is to improve your verbal points. Don't opt for GMATCLUB Tests. To be honest, it does not have a good question pool of verbals. The real verbal questions are not like the ones of the GMATCLUB Tests. Some questions are weird and their explanation are even more weird :).
Having said that, GMATCLUB Tests are still worthwhile. However the pricing is quite expensive to premium members or the one who has already purchased GMAT Toolkit. It should discount more for the ones who either purchase any product from GMATCLUB.
Hello Everyone,
My 2 cents about the GMAT club test:
Quant - GMAT club test are really a great source for practice for Quant. It will really help you understand how to approach question and test your abilities. I have just finished 5 of them (scored 660 in last GMAT attempt - i have been preparing for roughly an year) and can see the areas i missed in my preparation.
Verbal - Didn't feel helpful as the questions don't seem like GMAT type question. I would focus on rather practice from the questions posted here (http://gmatclub.com/forum/reading-comprehension-question-directory-topic-difficulty-129341.html
) in a timed manner.
So use GMAT Test for quant preparation and learn from it.
Best of luck to all GMAT aspirants. :)
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.
