Hi All,
I have
OG 2017 and Verbal Review 2017. Now, these editions contain 15% new questions compared to the previous editions. But the total number of questions is same. It means that some of the questions that were part of 2016 editions - I do not have access to with newer editions.
Since new questions have been introduced with almost every edition of Official Guides, I figured out I'm missing on a large chunk of official questions that were part of the previous OGs and Verbal Guides. After a painstaking effort of several hours, I have compiled all the questions that have been dropped from the earlier OGs (and VRs) since
OG 12th edition. The attached PDF file contains all the CR questions dropped from the following OGs as they were replaced by newer editions:
- OG12
- OG13
- OG 2016
- Verbal Review 2
- Verbal Review 2016
I'm sharing the same so that others can also gain from these precious official questions. I've also attached an excel file containing the answers of the questions and the categorisation of the questions into different CR question types.
The PDF contains 118 official CR questions, not present in 2017 editions.If you find the file helpful, please press the KUDOS button!

Edit: Moderator Note: Please note that a small percentage of these questions (5% or fewer, mostly from OG12) may have been re purposed by GMAC and included in the EP1 and EP2. We have not run a detailed analysis but we have noticed some degree of overlap.
