The Quant Section is very good. The questions are challenging, and the best part is you have multiple people giving and discussing each solution on the test - so if the official solution shows a different method of solving than what you used, you can always see different points of view and verify whether what you did was correct. The questions' discussion is a two way street. The Quant tests are REALLY good at helping you get a feel of the real test, and to get used to challenging questions. I dont think there's anything comparable at this price range on the internet. I think the best thing you can do is to give a test and recheck methods for each question before giving the next test. This way ur actually improving.
The verbal section is good; however, I wouldn't take the Verbal scores too seriously. Also, the official GMAT has 4 RC passages most of the time - each GMATClub Verbal test had only 3. This gives you a lopsided feel for time. Also, I think the grading is harsher in Verbal than the actual GMAT. Never crossed the V: 36 mark in the tests.
My actual GMAT score turned out to be:
Q: 47 (GMATClub scores' average had been 49)
V: 38 (GMATClub scores' average had been around 34)
Scaled Score: 690
You can't go wrong with GMATClub Tests.

The Gmat Club tests are a must have if you are aiming for a 700+ score.The Quant part of the CAT have the best questions that you will find anywhere. And it's not just the questions themselves, the explanations provided also help you uncover many shortcuts and help strengthen your core concepts. Admittedly, I found them to be a little harder than the GMAT quant questions, but that should help you be better prepared for the final test. And also, you can take the quant section or verbal section one at a time, which gives great flexibility when you are hard pressed for time.
Cons-Although the questions themselves were top notch, the scoring algorithm seemed to be a little off. The hard questions keep coming at you from around the first 5 questions, which wouldn't usually happen in the real exam. So you might find yourself running out of time, but again, this should be good for practice.
The verbal section! To me it was utter waste of time.Quite a few of the answers seemed debatable and few questions were not very GMAT like.
The first time I got a Q48 in the GmatClub tests I felt like NOW i'm ready for the actual GMAT. I had used the GmatClub tests along with EGMAT tests to practice the CATs, and I will suggest the same strategy to others appearing for the GMAT.
I still remember how I was jumping from one company to other but I was still not confident which company would provide me the best learning experience.
The moment I started with gmat club Tests I fell in love with it. The beauty with which they provide analytics and quality of questions is too good. You can select from which level you want to start and where you want to head to the toughest 700 level or want to start from 500 level to gain confidence.The confidence you get after doing questions and beauty with which each answer is explained is all you need to crack GMAT.

Gmatclub has been invaluable in helping me to achieve my target score. I highly recommend using Gmatclub and all the resources they provide to help individuals reach their goals. I was really grateful for all the forums and advice I received by other Gmatclub members. It truly feels like a community where you can go to get your questions answered and get the practice you need to achieve a top score! Regardless of the level of understanding you may have coming into the test, Gmat club can help you go from the level you are at to a much higher level. All the tools and resources you need can be found at Gmatclub.
After completing the Official Guide quant questions, I realized that it lacked 700+ questions. I read on many testimonies of past test takers achieving high score that they extensively practiced using the gmatclub tests. I then decided to purchase the gmatclub tests and found the questions and Bunuel's explanations extremely helpful. I would recommend them to anyone aiming for a high score in quant. The practice mode is also interesting to use since you can spend some time to understand each explanation after a question.
I would also highly recommend the gmatclub math book in addition to these tests which helped me a lot to understand how to approach certain types of questions
The GMAT Club Tests provide a wide variety of questions which are very helpful while studying. The math content is exceptional. While you should still use the official guide material, the gmat club question bank has the 700+ level questions which the official guide lacks. The verbal content is very good. However, some of the sentence correction questions do not seem to be plausible as actual GMAT questions because of many other flaws in them. As far as verbal goes, I would stay with the official guide material or some of the other resources out there. Overall this has been a great assistance in my GMAT journey.
Hi All ,
I Improved my Quant from 33 to 44 a jump of 11 points with Gmat Club tests.
I would like to tell you that GMAT Club tests for Quant and Verbal are really helpful. There are about 26 Quant and 9 Verbal CAT's which you can easily finish. I took the 3 month subscription. These Tests , CAT and quiz cover each topic. They have all the crooked and tricky questions you need to sharpen your mind. Quant has a lot of 700+ questions covering the most trickiest D.S. questions you may encounter on Actual GMAT. Verbal is just up to date. Quant is one level up but it prepares you for all kind of situations. There are answers in detail which you can view. You can post your doubts and get replies. There is enhanced reports to help. What else you need to give a finishing touch to your practice. Buy GMAT club Tests and feel confident about your preparation.
The GMAT Club Tests has all the tools to help you prepare for your exam. The Quant questions are great for 700+. I also really enjoyed the quizzes, given that it allows me to focus on just a particular area. The best tool, however, its the analytics. It tells you exactly what your strengths and weaknesses are. You can therefore just focus on that using the quizzes.
What I would recommend is to put some efforts in the time management, so that it shows you how you are doing with time in certain areas. I would recommend that to anybody working on the GMAT.

Good questions, explanations, and analytics. It's helpful to have so many Quant CATs, for those training to score high. I always recommend the GMAT Prep CATs first, but there are only 6 of them.
As advertised, there are a lot of hard questions.
I did a brief analysis comparing the question difficulty of 2 CATs: GMAT Club Free Test vs a CAT from GMAT Prep Exam Pack 2.
GMAT Club:
Quant score 37
Included 15 700 level Questions.
These 15 questions had an average % correct of 51% in GMAT Club Forum.
Exam Pack 2:
Quant Score 45
Although the Quant score was significantly higher, the questions were easier. The hardest 15 questions had an average % correct of 59% in GMAT Club Forum
for GMAT, you just have to be fast enough and answer correctly if you want to have a chance to solve as many hard questions as you can in the limited time you have (hard questions generate higher scores!). You must be fast and correct. In GMAT, each question serves up a different twist: a different level, uses a different set of tools, has a different length, tells a different story, can take from a few seconds to a few minutes to solve. But, most importantly, it presents us with questions that can be solved in many different ways. Unlike your high school teacher, the GMAT is not interested in learning how you solved each question. these tests help you build your understanding of the actual test.
