Best in the Cohort of companies. Although I ignored GMAT Club tests in starting because of difficulty level. I regret it. I scored 580. But this time I am determined to get that coveted 700. GMAT club tests are really the path to Q51. I have participated in GMAT club Olympics and even won prize. I have started participating in SC , CR butlers. (Looking for kudos:) Quants is bit difficult but i think its necessary to have that temperament and the methods used by Bunuel have no comparisons . I know these things will definitely help me.I am thankful to GMAT club owners and looking forward to use the tests again.
Excellent source for quant questions. Probably the best source, if I may. But there are way too many ambiguous questions in verbal that might demoralise you, if the team can sort those questions out, then it’ll be amazing. However the quant tests alone are incredible value for money so that works out. The scoring is also a bit on the lower side, if you get a Q45, that would translate to roughly a Q49 on the actual test, so keep that score deflation in mind. The difficulty gradient is also very good as you get plenty of 700+ questions that test your core concepts rather than make you brute force your way through.
GMAT club tests are an amazing source to practice questions. I would specially recommend it to people who are aiming for high scores in Quant because the quality of questions is really good ranging from beginner to advanced level questions. Expert replies help you to understand different approaches for answering particular questions. Through the analytics tool you can closely identify your weak/strong areas and work Club question bank has 1600+ questions with 25 Quant CATs and 8 Verbal CATs. Also after every CAT you have attempted an average GMAT score of you current performance is generated which can give you a good idea about how you are likely to perform on test day. You can also chose to study in timed or untimed mode as well.
Pros:
1) Much harder than the actual test
2) Questions mimic the nature of questions on GMAT
3)Interface is the same as GMAT
4) Free test is available.
5) Great analysis tool.
6) a High number of tests.
Cons:
1) Analysis of some questions(though rarely) is not great.
2) Verbal section scoring is not very close to the real exam.
3) RC questions are easy as compare to real exams.
4) Some quants questions are lengthy.
I have used the tests and they helped me to score Q49(I wish to score Q50/51)
I suggest every aspirant give it a shot. and It will only increase your appetite for difficult questions

The question sets are very good especially for quants. The question level is a bit higher than OG for quants in my opinion but its a good practice. There are many quant exams so you can get a good practice.
Verbal overall is ok. Some of the questions are really good, some are ok.
The only problem is that if you take many quants tests, many hard questions will be exhausted and you will start getting relatively easier questions even if you get questions correct. ( Compared to initial exams ) But the GMAT club team keeps adding more questions so it will resolve on its own in my opinion. Cheers!
I gave my GMAT for the 2nd time after giving some quant GMAT ClUB mocks and they helped me increased my score.
Now I am willing to give more mocks to improve my score further in my final attempt.
Do the quant sectional tests and a Q50/51 is guaranteed.
Thank you so much for this amazing platform and plethora of opportunities for GMAT CLUB TESTS.
Furthermore, this time I would like to try the verbal section too, which will surely be of great benefit.
Gmat club tests are amazing, make sure you attempt them before giving the GMAT.
Cheers to getting a good score with the help of GMAT CLUB TESTS.
Actually it was my best purchase in preparation for the GMAT;
I have not used the Verbal part, but only used Quant, specifically going through questions by topics, from easy to medium and to hard.
I loved the degree of granularity I can do when choosing what topic to practice, and the interface is really logical and totally resembling the GMAT one.
It was very useful, especially that I can hit enter in order to confirm the selection.
Sometimes explanation is really short, and thats why always available "link to forum" button is extremely helpful - I can see additional explanations by Bunuel or even ask my own clarification.
I have been using the GMAT Club tests and questions for a month – on and off. The User interface is GMAT like. The questions are not the run-of-the mill type. I have learnt a lot by just attempting around 120 questions, and am looking forward to remaining the rest of the questions.
The questions have stats that tell us how many people have attempted the question, the time taken and links to the GMAT club discussions, which show us different ways in which others have done the question.
A small draw back is that we have to select a certain number of questions – max being 50. By default 5 is selected. Many a time, I have put in a number greater than 5 – but somehow it just resets ot 5 – costing me 1 valuable test.
The GMAT club tests contain set of hardest Quant questions available. The unique thing I liked about quant question of GMAT club are the simple solutions provided by experts. The question may seem like a difficult one at first glance but once you go through the official explanation the question will not only appear to be a simple one but also the question will provide you with conceptual knowledge which can be implemented on similar kind of questions on actual GMAT test. The one thing every GMAT aspirants look for, while solving any question, is the learning opportunity. This part is very well taken care by the GMAT club test creators. Kudos to GMAT club team !!

I have been a member of GMAT club forum for 2 years but have not been so active here. But I have always taken the GMAT club tests during my preparation of GMAT. The tests are of very high difficulty and are really must for serious aspirants who are aiming for High 600 and 700+ scores. The Solutions of the questions are crisp and are enough to understand the concept tested in the Question. The number of tests provided is enough to master all concepts of GMAT if used strategically. I would really recommend these Tests as essential for GMAT preparation. Kudos to GMAT Club.
