I have taken two GMAT Club Tests and felt few things which could be improved upon basis my expertise and experience of GMAT questions
1. While taking and reviewing tests, many common test takers (including me) expect that the questions are followed with holistic expert answer covering all facets of the question and its ambiguity rather than the not-so-useful comments of the other test takers (few negative comments, i was surprised to see few people questioning the authenticity about a quant question (and trust me it was genuine). This is kind of weird and does not look good or motivate other
2. Quant questions are made or framed more towards concept exceptions and advanced logics. A common GMAT taker would expect the questions to be as similar as the official ones and also the order in which they are selected
3. Verbal Questions - I am 100% sure that quality of questions need to be improved. Their are certain questions which may not be 100% accurate.
4. Also while taking the test, their was a bug that if i have not selected any answer and pressed "Enter" key twice, then automatically the last choice (E) was selected and i was moved to the next question. Happened twice.
5. I would suggest that a better Graphic User Interface similar to the GMAT would definitely help in making candidates feel better and more close towards the actual test
6. A weekly Full CAT Test for the non-subscribed GMAT CLUB members where they can take one complete test free of cost and then subscribe for the further analysis or to take ten more. Rewards for the highest scorers and all, etc.
7. And at last i would like to thank all the founders, board of directors, experts, moderators and everyone else for making this forum lively and motivating.
The experience was smooth and the quality of questions was also similar to the level of original GMAT. I would recommend increasing the pool of questions so that there could be more Verbal sections tests, that there is a minimal repetition of questions. The quality of the questions in mathematics is spectacular and was helpful in bringing about the requisite improvement in me. If possible, try bringing in some full length mocks as well, along with section test. The full length mocks could be a combination of Section Tests as well. The overall experience of GMAT club tests has been spectacular, and I will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone as the first choice.
GMATclub has excellent Quant questions which are a bit on a high level side and the test is a good score predictor of the actual score. The 700+ level questions will actually make you think through the problem and help you learn the concepts.
It is an excellent value add at this price. Also the number of questions available is quite vast, we get 1500+ questions which give you a good level of practice before the D day.
I would highly recommend these test to someone who is looking to boost his/her score from 650 to 750+ level.
These are a must take for a 750 + score.
Honestly these tests are on another level. They aren't written exactly like the GMAC tests, but they test the same skills. These tests go above and beyond though to include little things that may have not been considered. In truth, these tests will take your quant score to the next level. The biggest criticism I have would be the explanation of some of the harder questions. If you don't have a strong foundation, it will be difficult to understand the most difficult problems' explanation. I would recommend really delving into the forums and trying to establish a background for these specific questions. All in all gmat club is a great resource.
I was introduced to the GMAT Club Test recently. And I must say, I found them to be decently useful. The concepts checked are in line with those in the real test. The collection is wholesome and is useful to break score barriers. Atleast it helped me do that. The question pool is quite diversified. And as far as I remember correctly, the last few days were just spent on solving problems in the question bank. I found it worth the time for quant atleast. The error log list on taking these tests was pretty long, so had to spend some time fine-tuning concepts.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been taking official GMAT exam several times.
Even though I haven't gotten the score that I want, I really enjoy use GMAT Club's practice exam to prepare exam.
I like math questions because those questions are not only challenge but also help me to build math foundation.
However, it seems that there are not too many verbal questions. It would be nice to see more questions in verbal session. I really like the idea to link more different explanations under each question. Those explanations help me fully understand some questions that I don't know how to solve them.
Thank you so much for providing such wonderful tests for someone like me.
I haven't purchased the tests but one of my friend did who scored 700 in gmat. He told me gmat club tests played a huge role in getting good score in Maths.

I found tests really amazing, they showed my weak areas such as Rate and work, geometry and data sufficiency.
Towards the end of last year, I made a decision to sign up for the gmatclub test, and i'm glad I did. Although verbal portion can be better, quant portion of the test is worth well beyond the investment. Besides the extensive amount of questions, explaination are often top-notch. It's even better because the system allows participants to pitch in on better solutions to approaching problems. To some all up, the interactive module, number of availalble questions, number of CHALLENGING questions, and top-notch solutions all make GMATclub test a steal for your bucks. Try it, and you will definitely see an improvement.
I believe that GMATclub tests are the best tests out there for those aiming for 700+.
I took three attempts to reach my target score, and tried many resources before trying the GMATclub tests. For my third attempt I prepared using the GMATclub tests and got a 740 (Q50 V40).
My main struggle on the GMAT was the quant part, and my goal was to improve my quant score from 46-48 to a 50. Using the GMATclub tests I was able to do just that.
I found the tests useful for two main reasons:
1) The problems they have are very similar to the actual problems you'll see on test day;
2) These problems are harder than the problems on the actual test.
The GMATclub problems made me work hard every time and made my life so much easier on the actual test, because for 95% of the problems that the GMAT was throwing at me I knew I've dealt with a similar but tougher problem.
If you are aiming for a 50 or a 51 on quant you should get these tests - they're worth the price.
Good luck to everyone with the test!

Quant
The quant test of gmat club is really awesome. Especially the problems of number system. Number system is one of the toughest section in GMAT and solving gmat club number system questions helps you achieve high level of accuracy in this section. I recommed you to please solve all these question twice, rembering all the concept you find new while solving problems.
others sections of quant is also very good. do solve all the question
Verbal
So far I have solved SC and CR question. In both the section you will find some of the good question. But explanation of many question is not upto the mark. But as GMAT CLUB gives you an option to ask directly an expert.So if you feel explanation is not sufficient, you can always contact an expert.
Thank you
