Gmatclub tests were an amazing supplement to my study course to take shorter tests where I could really zoom in and analyze my mistakes. In longer tests initially you tend to make silly mistakes till you get used to the length so these tests really help you test your level and improve upon it. The quant section is also very strongly representative of the real gmat level - I would suggest to really take a few of the quant tests leading to the weeks before gmat rather than just focusing on gmatprep tests which some people tend to do because gmatprep is at a slightly lower level than the questions you get during the actual gmat where your level keeps increasing if you get questions right.
I have taken GMAT tests from Magoosh, Veritas, Manhattan prep, and GMAT club. Magoosh is amazing in terms of content and price. They have the best customer service too. Veritas prep has great exams and they really focus on questions which require critical thinking. Manhattan Prep is over hyped with Math questions a lot more difficult than the real test and the verbal questions can all be solved using Manhattan's strategy but not really applicable on the real test. Finally, the GMAT club has the best exams. Very close to the real test and it helps to see the exam in the same format as the real test too. Math questions are 700+ level and the written explanations are great too. Only wish there was video explanations for the questions as sometimes it is hard to follow the written explanations.
These tests are close to reality and the analysis is really in-depth. You can learn something by checking not only your results but also the times and the comparison to others. I really enjoy the feature that you can see the level of the questions; that gives you a feeling for the real test scenario. The questions are very versatile and add very well to the Official Guide for GMAT prep books. You can also choose between different modes. I can really recommend to take the chance and simulate the test with GMAT Club Tests in order to improve your score.
excellent resource, if you are aiming for anything above 47.
there are enough 600 and 700 level tough questions covering every topic that is important from test perspective.
the explanations are sometimes too brief, however if you drop a message on the forum, you will most likely get your doubts cleared. it is definitely worth the hype and worth buying. plus if you buy a premium subscription using earned 100 pts on gmatclub, you will get a 30% off on current prices.
verbal section isn't good, the questions aren't up to gmat level.
however it is still worth buying this product because the quant material stands out.
Hi,
I used the GMAT club quant tests extensively during my preparation and found them pretty useful. In my opinion, you do not need anything else. Just review each question thoroughly and you should be through. I am planning to retake GMAT and am banking on GMAT official questions and GMAT Club Quant tests to reach the Q50 mark. Bunuel's techniques are great... although many say the tests are difficult, that's precisely because the tests throw maximum 700 level questions unlike actual GMAT test. However, the level of difficulty of a GMATClub 700 questn and that in the actual test may not be very different.
Verbal tests: while I was not very satisfied as the answers to some of the questions among the answer choices were too obvious and unlike GMAT, I still feel they are good practice.

For my first GMAT experience I did not know about gmatclub tests, so I just read books and some random posts in the forum, now that I changed my startegy for my second chance in the GMAT, I read a lot of postings in the forum and follow recommendations about gmatclub tests I am very confident that they'll make the difference for my second chance!. If you want to test your foundations and move forward to the next level on math questions, gmatclub math problems are what you need! You'll find not only more than 1000 questions but also detailed explanations for each one. Furthermore, people share concerns that you're having too, and explanations that fits to your needs. Don't hestate to submit more questions, you'll always find someone who is able to share her experience.
There are many tests out there claiming to emulate the GMATPrep CAT environment. But that in my opinion is irrelevant.
To hit the Q50/51 mark, you need to practice at least 2000 questions - they need to test certain concepts. And most importantly, you need to familiarize yourself with those concepts by REPETITION.
This is where the GMAT Club tests are superior - by allowing the user to review mistakes (Mistake Analysis) and create quizzes out of questions you got wrong.
I was stuck on 49 for the longest time - the moment i started building quizzes out of the error log - by score boosted.
Further more, the quality of the questions are on par with GMATPrep - which I would recomment to anyone.
Hope this was helpful.

Hello Everyone,
I have been taking the GMAT practice tests provided by GMAT Club (the ones which have math and verbal sections as separate tests). I have not been able to do all the tests that were provided, but just thought to share my experiences so far here.
Quant Tests: I had already completed questions from OG 13 as well as some other good materials too. So I was pretty confident that I pretty much had the quant section covered and was easily hoping to get 49 or above. So I was kinna shocked when I started seeing their questions. I scored 44 for my first test. The quality of the questions is really great. Most of the questions are not seen anywhere else and each question requires the understanding of atleast one good concept in Quant.
I highly recommend anyone planning to score a 50 for their GMAT Quant to complete all the tests before taking the actual GMAT. Believe me, you won’t find a better set of practice questions elsewhere.
Verbal tests: I am not an expert in verbal, so can’t provide an expert opinion on it too. I felt that the questions were good. It helps one improve time management.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the tests. Must have tool in any GMAT aspirant’s kit !
I looked at a thread where many people who scored above 750 have used the gmat club tests and I went ahead with the purchase of these tests.
The quant is impeccable , 26 tests with brilliant questions and analysis , but only 9 verbal and I was disappointed with this otherwise a good deal
I hope the test makers focus on equal Quant and verbal
Overall Experience - 3.5/5 .. a 4 is a bit too much from me so i have chosen 3
i hope my feedback of adding more verbal is taken into consideration
P.S - Gmat score - 710 .. The tests help for Quant but not much for Verbal
The real gist of GMAT Club tests is in its Quants Tests. Quants tests are very helpful and very well in line of what can be expected in GMATPrep and actual GMAT exam. The helpful UI representation also helps to identify your weak areas and error analysis.
Verbal tests also are very helpful and justifies the true level of GMAT.
All the verbal and quant tests are actually +1 level than actual GMAT. This really helps us to increase your strength beyond what is expected at GMAT.
Suggestion- It would be great if GMAT Club increases number of tests available for verbal. For quants we have 26 tests but for verbal only 8 or 9.
