The best tests on the market,GMATClub quant tests helped me go from Q36 to Q49.They are conceptual and make you think out of the box. Here's how I used them:
1.Take a test under timed conditions.Answer like you would on exam day,if you see a question that you cant solve in max 3 min then guess
2.After the test,spend the next 1.5 hrs reviewing your answers.
3.Create a collection and add your wrong answers to it
4.Do the above 4 days a week.On the 5th day,solve all the questions from your wrong answer collection
5.If you still get it wrong,then bookmark it.Revise your bookmarked questions weekly.
I took the GMAT Club tests subscription for three months with the Forum Quiz.
The Quant and VA computer adaptive tests are one of the best available, from the level and depth of questions to the results analysis. Though I would recommend going for the forum quiz first as you prepare - it will help understand your current level and by filtering out the questions based on topic, type and difficulty, you can work on the problem areas. I used this when i decided to retake the gmat, to practice and work on my areas for improvement.
Supplementing this with the CAT every alternate day, I was able to track my progress
GMAT club tests have got a good number of quant questions which may help you in achieving your target score.
I felt that they could've added a couple of more verbal CATs, because in comparison to the number of quant CATs, number of verbal CATs are way too low.
Coming to the quality, Quant CATs are as brutal as one can get. Be ready for a tons of hard hitting questions, which at times may make you tensed.
I don't know how they structured the Verbal CAT algorithm, even after a stretch of 5-7 correct answers, you still don't get a difficult question. I've observed this while reviewing my performance. I don't think it is so close to original GMAT, but it is definitely good enough to test the depths of your fundamentals.
On an overall, I'd give 3/5 for GMAT club tests.
Highly recommend GMAT Club Tests. Got mine together with one of the test packages. It has more quant practices than verbal practices and is definitely useful for students targeting to get Q51. Definitely, do more timed practices before the actual GMAT exam and there should be a positive effect on overall score. Do look out for their occasional promotions to get the GMAT Club Tests at a discount. Also, do consider the GMAT Forum Quiz which is highly useful in giving additional test practice in a structure manner. If possible, buy the total GMAT package from GMAT Club to enjoy all the benefits GMAT Club has to offer.
gmat club tests are great to test quant, little on the tougher side though, but helps to build the stamina for the real thing. Most importantly, it will test you on your fundamentals and remind you of basics. wrt verbal part, it is way off for me. the question stems have poor reasoning - and can be confusing. This is very good feel how the real online GMAT exam would look like, including the whiteboard, calculator, complexity and algorithm. Other Exam prep companies cannot match at least the algorithm used by GMAC. Take it starting from 1 month before the actual GMAT

GMAT Club Tests provide an ideal bouquet of practice questions encompassing all difficulty levels -- Hard, Medium and Low. Even amongst the Medium and Low difficulty level questions, selection of the correct option becomes tricky post easy elimination of 2 to 3 incorrect options. Simultaneously, the Hard questions , which form the majority among the questions forming part of the GMAT Club Tests, have assisted me immensely through the techniques described in the solutions. The innovative functionality, embedded in the form of Quiz as part of the comprehensive GMAT Club bouquet, is particularly useful as it enables formation of Custom Quiz focussed at improvement of the desired areas.. An ideal mix of GMAT level questions...
Take my word, they are by far the best quant tests you will find in the market. This is absolutely essential for a GMAT taker to try these tests to get a feel of how you may feel on D-DAY. On the real GMAT, your journey will not be smooth. You will definitely encounter questions you've never even seen before, you won't even understand what topic is it from, and at that point, you will have to brainstorm and that too timely. The feeling of brainstorming during the test is very important to be felt beforehand so that you know how to manage stress. That feel GMAT Club test will provide you. The questions are so difficult and new ( if you don't practice from GMAT club test pool) that it will be enough to give you the feel of real gmat.
Wonderful collection of question and very nicely designed.
Difficulty level is also maintained.
Bunuel is really doing a great job.
Thank you so much

GMAT Club tests are probably the best unofficial quant mocks in the market. Though verbal could be improved, Quant mocks are superb and well crafted.
One thing to be kept in mind while attempting these mocks is that they are way too "hard" but it is good. It helps you in getting your concepts cemented. In my first few mocks I barely scored a Q49. My score hovered around 45-46. But, do not be disheartened. Those scores are to be taken lightly, and actual test is way easier.
A Tip: Read Bunuel's explanation for every question, you will learn from those than everything else.
I have been using Gmat Club tests for 3 months now. And I have to say, the questions are one of the best sets of questions I have seen for GMAT. The verbal is good, no doubt, but the quant is quite marvelous. Practicing 700 level questions here and then for the wrong questions, I read the source/ knowledge base and this practice has improved my quality a lot.
Just 1 suggestion I can add. Although the practice sets are quite user friendly, there should be an option of doing more than 50 cases in 1 set. Although i can take successive 2 sessions of 50 questions, but I fell if adding the option for more than 50 questions in 1 set will be quite feasible for the students.
