I started using these test sometime back and consider myself qualified enough to review based on my 3 tests. Something to take note of, I have also given the practise tests from Kaplan, Veritas Prep, Manhattan GMAT, The Economist before giving GMAT Club tests. Also, I have my GMAT scheduled on 20th July, so will update on the score accuracy after that.

Interface - I like the simple interface of the GMAT Club test. It is less distracting to eye and the next question loads faster. The font size seems adequate and it aids you to read the text without much of scrolling, which is generally required to be done for RC's

Question Quality - Given the previous tests, I feel the questions in Quant were quite upto mark with the OG questions, though marginally harder than it. Although, Manhattan remains the toughest Quant test of the many I appeared. GMAT Club test question, especially for Quant sometimes are tricky more than laborious, which is exactly what GMAT Quant is all about. I found the Word problems and Probablity questions quite tricky. For the Verbal questions, I found few of the question quite vague with answers ambiguous. In terms of quality of questions, I didn't find it at par with other GMAT tests. Although, some of the questions in GC were really good but overall it helps if there are no questions that are unclear because it unnecessarily wastes your precious minutes between the exam. I will reserve my comment on the score, until my GMAT.

Analytics - I love the analytics. I find it quite satisfying with those graphs and added stats for questions. I liked it more because unlike other tests, which give you the reasoning behind correct answers, GMAT club gives you link of the forum discussion. It helps tremenduously because many times you are not satisfied with the explanations and you can seek clarity on the forum then and there itself regarding the explanation unlike other tests.

I would surely recommend them to someone who wants to practise CAT's because I think that it will improve as it progresses.

The best feature is the test mode gives you a feel of your actual GMAT exam. The level of questions and content used to design them is good.
The solutions provided for the questions will help you to learn a lot of shortcuts and tricks. This will definitely help you to improve your accuracy and timing.
I was able to analyze my mistakes and weakness which has helped me to improve my score. The reports are very accurate and the bookmark option is great.
So utilize these tests to judge and boost your quant score.

I am glad I got the chance to try out the GMAT club tests. The page is very easy to navigate and the questions are good quality. Though, I found the tests to be slightly difficult..I would recommend using them in the middle of your preparation and not in the beginning.

The questions cover all range of topics which is again a very good advantage. I find it best to first brush up on your basic concepts and then attempt the tests. Oh and I have just tried the quant test so far..looking forward to trying the verbal ones as well.

I've already GMAT once and I felt that your Quantitative CAT is harder than the real one. I got Q 48 on Official GMAT Prep Software. Unfortunately, I was unfamiliar with the erasable board which made me slower during the real exam. As a result, I got only Q 44 on the real test. However, I think GMAT Club test is too difficult and I only got Q 41 - 42. I wonder whether the algorithm is accurate since I noticed that whenever I chose the wrong answer on a 700-level question, the next question is still the 700-level questions. Therefore, I think that your program prediction is not really accurate. The answer explanation is clear and understandable, but you can improve it by making the video explanation which provides the process of thinking step-by-step. However, I will recommend GMAT Club test to my friends because your questions are hard and complicated. This could be nice for everyone who aim to get 700+. Moreover, there are more 1500+ questions which other CAT prep and Official Guide will never offer.

Gmat club tests are very good.questions are of mixed difficulty level,which prepare you well for the actual Gmat exam.explanations provided by bunuel are awesome.it helps you to know your weakness and work on it.the difficulty level of questions in math sections are bit higher,but it prepares you for worst.the verbal exams are also good.i found some explanation not convincing though.overall i am happy with gmat club test.the scoring algorithm may not be that close to real time gmat exam but are close enough to make you understand where you right now stand in your preparation.

I have tried several computer-adaptive tests online usually for around $20-50 and have found GMAT Club's CAT's give great value for an extensive amount of practice, especially for Quant. Although I have a good foundation in the math concepts covered by the GMAT, I could not seem to do well in sample tests due to the time pressure and how the difficult of the questions increased progressively. The amount of questions for practice available through GMAT Club gave me the confidence to spot my errors and the explanations were pretty great. Some review books may offer just one way of looking at the problem but I appreciated GMAT Club providing two ways of assessing and solving it. My only issue is that sometimes the interface is buggy and there are lags in between questions

In terms of the score analysis reports, they are one of the better ones out there for keeping track. I highly recommend subscribing to GMAT Club because you'll definitely get your money's worth.

I want to reach out to people who are looking for more questions(other than the official) out there. I agree with everyone saying that the questions from Official Guide are the closest ones you get in the exam. If you still feel the need to solve questions both from Quant and Verbal, it is better to buy the tests package from gmatclub. The Quant section in these tests is very good and close to that of official guide. They were specially composed by bb and Bunuel. Basically I am good at Maths and weak at Verbal. Coming to verbal section, I think it needs some improvement compared to the GMAC. The scoring algorithm is better than the MGMAT's algorithm. The questions come from a big pool and maintain the balance among easy,moderate and hard question types.
I bought the bundled version of GMAT club tests with e-GMAT course.

I have been on Gmatclub site for 2 years approx now and i have taken gmatclub tests with quant in focus. The quant tests are real gem for any candidate. The question spread is very good and the quality of question is at par with gmat actual test. It's good for both who is starting preparation and for those who just want to check where they stand after preparation. The explanation of the solutions are crisp with answers from veterans like Bunnel making it crystal clear to understand. Best thing is you don't have to search the questions at other places for solutions as this is adequate. I will be giving verbal tests as well soon and will come up with more reviews soon. I have given gmat test and i can say that this simulation including questions are very close to the actual gmat.

Thanks,
Aditya.

I took the GMAT and scored a 47 in Quant. I turned to GMAT Club Tests to improve my score. The GMAT Club Quant tests are a great resource for Quant. I found the tests were more difficult in that I faced more number of difficult questions thrown at me. Just the sheer number of questions they give for practice should be a strong enough a reason for you to take these test. By the time you take up all the 26 test you will end up being a pro in Quant! So don't get demotivated if you find the tests to be difficult. I think that since they are more difficult they help you in pushing your limits and when you write the real GMAT you will find that one to be much easier and this is what happened with me. I scored a 50! And I couldn't have achieved it without the GMAT Club Quant test!
As for Verbal, I found the tests to be good but not great. I found that the explanations provided for the answers for a few questions very questionable and vague. They might not be the best material for Verbal but they are good enough for practice. They may not give 26 tests for Verbal, but they do give 9 which still more than what anyone else gives.
Bottom-line go for it! :D

QUANT TESTS REVIEW
Whats good - The questions set
1.The quant tests are very good. These tests are closer to GMAT official format than any other CATS I have tried for ex- Manhattan CATS, economist GMAT, Veritas Prep. The questions mimic the the actual official qs very closely.

What could be improved - The algorithm for the CAT. Though questions are very good and very close to real official qs, the algorithm is not very close to GMAT prep. The type or topic of qs thrown one after another are many times same which is not the case with GMAT prep. Also the order of difficulty of qs is also off from real test.

Overall Verdict - One of the best question banks with comprehensive coverage of topics for honing quant skills. Works extremely well for practice but not as well if taken as CAT for indication on score.
VERBAL TEST REVIEW
I would say though ok not so good. The questions quality is not apar with other available mock CATS from other companies especially in SC and CR. RC is ok.
Verbal CATS is really an area where there is need gap for CAT or question banks which are closer to official GMAT prep qs.None of available CATS form prep companies are able to fulfill this need. Same is with gmatclub verbal tests.
Sometimes, the answer for few qs especially in CR is debatable.
The algorithm is also really off in verbal. Even after string of correct 600 level qs, the test was not giving 700 level qs.
Overall Verdict for verbal - Its ok but no where close the quality of questions in quant tests.

SUMMARY of review :
Gmatclub is rightly known for quant questions quality and is worth the dollars spent. Verbal Tests quality has much scope for improvement. I would strongly recommend the gmatclub to take up it as challenge and fulfuill the need gap of really good verbal CAT or atleast questions set which mimics the offical one.
