Hey all,
I thought I'd share an opinion with others...
In short, from my experience I have found that SC questions on the forum are - on average - more difficult than most of the other SC questions that I have encountered elsewhere*. My hit ratio is about 10-15% lower on the forum (decent sample size). In a way this makes sense; people post on the forum difficult questions that they have the most difficulty with (at least that's what I do).
The reason for posting this comment is that members may become discouraged if all they do is focus on GMAT Club SC questions. However, I think it's important that they realize the level of these questions. BTW, I'm not saying that the GMAT Club questions are not good for learning...they are. What I am saying is that I only hit the forum when I'm 'ready' and when I know I've mastered other SC concepts.
Okay, I'll end my rant here
*I won't list sources so that no one takes it as -ve feedback about a vendor/company/etc.

Ok, but could you mention which questions bank you are using to compare it with the questions in GMAT Club.
If you are comparing it with the OGs, you are right!

IMHO
Do not rest with what you can do; jump and reach those things that are just above you, though it may need several attempts. Then you learn, otherwise you don’t.
Whether you are ready or not, start hitting the hard stuffs and one day even without your knowing, you will be hitting the bull’s eye.
In a tough forum, one can learn form other’s superior knowledge while in easier forums, one will only give away one’s superior knowledge. This won’t help to learn.
If one finds GMAT club SC tough, I vouch, his or her learning process has started. Good Luck.
