Let's work together as a community to create world's best GMAT Diagnostic test by creating, refining, and improving diagnostic questions.

We have started this project with the Quant section to help GMAT test takers understand their weaknesses better. The test is free - please take it. If you have any questions or suggestions - post them here. Also, the idea of the test is to improve it based on the feedback of the community - here is how you can share your thoughts:
1. Rate questions using the STAR rating system - the ones that rank low will be gradually phased out
2. Provide verbal feedback by replying to this thread
3. Suggest question types to be included in this test - please provide examples if possible (we'll take care of creating the questions)
4. Finally - get others to take this test and provide their feedback

How to use the Diagnostic Test - The Diagnostic Test is setup to allow you to test you as thoroughly or as quickly as you would prefer. The questions are arranged in sections in an increasing difficulty order - the first question is always 600-650 level, mid question is 700 level, and the last question is 750 level. If you are in a hurry, you can take either all easy or medium, or all hard questions only. Instead of 45 questions, you can only take 15 and leave the rest for later.

Taking the test
You should spend a maximum of 90 minutes answering 45 questions or if you are taking fewer then plan to spend on average 2 minutes per question


Where are the questions from?
The questions have been developed by very experienced and high scoring GMAT Club members

Are the questions copyrighted?
Yes, but you can post and distribute them to benefit other test takers - please give credit to GMATClub for the hard work our members put into this test

You guys are funny

The verbal will depend on the success of the Quant one. Verbal is harder to develop, so we thought it made sense to start with a simpler task and see how popular the diagnostic test will be.

You can take it at any stage of your Prep - the idea was to take in the early stage but you can take the first 2 questions of each section in the beginning of your prep (these are 600 and 700 level questions) and then the last question in each section at the end (these are 750 level)

Thank you for your feedback!

I am excited to see that people are rating questions - great job!
I am also planning to add ratings for explanations to separate one from another to be clear what specifically needs improvement.

Thanks a lot

First of all "Thanks a lot"!!!

You guys are so kind, I feel lucky to be here.

A little query, when is the verbal test expected?? & secondly this test is not intended for new comers, it is for those who are in final stages of their preparation?? Am I right???

Thank you for this tool! I've been in this prep process for 40 days now! I have improved form 430 to 600 something and now I need hard stuff to help me!!! I'll start with this thing to know where I am!!!

We will but that will be determined if we can find a great Verbal writer. Balanced verbal test is much tougher to create

Thank you all for suggestions, clarifications, and questions - the PDF version has been updated.

thanks a lot!!!
