While the questions on the free GMAT Club test that I took were harder than those on actual GMAT, in general, I feel it's really a good option to get acquainted with all kinds of GMAT questions and concepts.
Specifically Quant section covers all the concepts. Verbal is not so reliable, but, then again, these tests should be seen for the purpose of knowing as many concepts as possible.
The no. of SC questions was too low in the mock that I took, for some reason.
All in all, I would suggest people definitely take atleast 1 GMATclub test before appearing for actual GMAT.
I recently signed up for the GMAT Club tests and I have been pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of the system as well as the question bank.
I have already taken the official GMAT and have a score of 730 on the exam. I am now studying to improve my score to the 99th percentile.
The testing system is pretty straightforward and resembles the official GMAT system very well. The feel and the operation mimicking the official test helps you get in the zone when attempting a test. The option to pause a test can be very helpful during practice. The crown jewel is the practice mode which is ideal if you want to practice at your own pace. The sheer quantity of tests and questions is also a big plus.
The analytics function of the GCT is unmatched in my opinion. I have taken tests from all the major services (Official, Kaplan, MGMAT, Veritas) and the detail in the analytics offered by GMAT Club is unmatched in my opinion.
The place where the system needs to improve is the algorithm itself. I was thrown a couple of extremely hard question right at the beginning of the test and getting those incorrect put me off slightly. This usually does not happen in the official test and the difficulty is generally incremental. A few easier questions were present in the middle of the test even after I had answered difficult question correctly. The algorithm could help use some work I think.
Overall, I am extremely impressed by the GMAT Club tests. Anyone looking for additional practice and honing actual test taking ability should most definitely give them a look.
Cheers
I was having problems with the verbal section and after taking some practice exams and not getting the proper score i needed to get over the 700 score i decided to purchase the GMAT Club Tests. With their explanations on concepts i was having problems with my verbal score started to improve. i started at v23 and leapt to v36 after five verbal tests. As for the math i wasn't bad usually hovering around v42 but with constant practice i am averaging v47. I do recommend the tests to supplement your studies. With an overall view of how you are doing you can quickly hone in on the areas you need to focus on and increase your score
it's been 1 year that i first discovered gmatclub forum , and since then i didn't regret no second spent on this forum , the atmosphere is very "cozy" with student from aroud the world chatting over some tricky subject ; nothing so serious that you imagine yourself sitting on a library with some friends .
As a young student from morocco who is willing to pursue his studies in the Top BS in US gmatclub offer to me the opportunity to be connected with a world that i didn't know and i wouldn't have known without my involvement in this forum .
I highly recommend gmatclub to everybody who is lost with all those informations available online, and who is looking for something credible and helpfull
GMAT is adaptive, and if one performs well early in the test sections, the subsequent questions get harder and harder. As 500 and 600 level questions are relatively easy, practicing 700 level questions is the ultimate key to scoring high.
GMAT CLUB TESTS were not only a BRILLIANT source of extremely hard 700 level questions, they were available in the form of actual exam style CATs. I haven't come across such a high quality practice tool anywhere else on the internet.
The QUANT section on the club tests has improved my knowledge base, time management and approach to tackling tough questions. I really have never felt this confident with the GMAT ever before and I am really grateful for this tool to have been available.
In short, don't think twice, purchase the GMATCLUB TESTS and get going!!
I am writing this review after appearing multiple quant tests in GMAT club.I did not need to do even OG quant to appear GMAT.I scored 49 only based on my preparation from GMAT club test series.The problems here cover all the concepts of actual GMAT and is a tad higher in terms of difficulty level.But this prepares you for a high score in quant.I was scoring consistently 48-49 in tests and with a mediocre performance in GMAT , I scored 49 in the actual exam.These tests helps you build your core skills with problem.If you are someone who does not like to go through theories , concepts of quants before attempting problems (kind of boring task for me) or you are bored of doing easy or calculation intensive OG problems , then this test is for you.It will familiarize you with all the concepts through problems and it also challenge you with tricky problems evenif you are very good at quant.

GMAT CLUB website is the leading website I have ever encountered which provide the best support system for both pre GMAT test and Post-test and also it is one of the most prefered websites for all the GMAT test takers for the listed reasons.
Firstly, GMAT Club has the best review of all the top GMAT preparation institutes as well as the top admission consulting companies which is most helpful for MBA Aspirants.
Secondly, it is the best place to practice and the best place to get all the explanation for all the possible question for GMAT.
Finally, the Gmat Club tests are a must have if you are aiming for a 700+ score, most reliable tests.These questions are not only great in number but also in terms of variety and standard. Also, the explanation is concise, clear and to the point. I found the filter of question difficulty level divided into 500, 600 and 700, as one of the best features.I would highly recommend the GMAT club tests to all those who are struggling to get their scores up in Verbal and quant as these are probably the best resource that you could lay your hands on.
And to conclude I will highly recommend all the GMAT test taker to regularly visit GMATCLUB website to be updated with GMAT preparation materials and the various suggestion and guidance to ace the GMAT test.
The GMAT Club tests played a very important role in helping me prepare for the GMAT. The Quants section - both the quality of questions and the explanations provided by Bunuel was a big help. I personally found the questions in the test to be difficult than the ones asked in the actual test.
They can however improve on the explanation part of the Verbal section.
This club test is a must for anyone who does not have a background in Quants and aim to achieve a Quants score of 49+
The shortcuts explained also proved helpful in the final exams.
All the best and study hard.
After many months of practicing Quant questions, I realized that I needed to get more questions that would enhance my skills. I came across the GMAT club test and after taking 3 tests on the gmat club quant CAT I was able to improve my Quant scores substantially.
Here is my take on the GMAT Quant CAT:
1. The tests are somewhat harder than the real GMAT but practicing the tests will save you lots of unforeseen situations on the real GMAT CAT as the test will give you the adequate preparedness needed to take on the real GMAT quant.
2. For people like myself that Quant is not our strong point, the tests will help to maintain stable scores between 42-47
3. The Quant tests can also serve as confidence builder, this is because as mentioned above the tests are harder than the real exam, being comfortable with the GMAT club tests make a huge difference.
4. Regarding the scoring algorithm, in my opinion; this disparity with the real exam should not be really be a distraction because once a test taker has mastered the fundamental concepts and formula it should be easier to score high marks on the real test.

Have been using the GMATclub CAT's for that past 6 months, focusing mainly on the maths section (the magoosh access for that came along with the gmatclub access for free had a great verbal question set).
The forum is one of the hidden gems with tons of helpful posts about admissions and time management while preparing for the GMAT. Not to mention the community posted solutions to each question that allows you to understand multiple approach to the same question, enhancing the learning yield for each question.
Certainly one of the better test banks out there with great community and explanations at the end of each question. Recommended!
